Grinders - YouTube

Yea I enjoyed it, seen it last week,
the one guy is pretty much in the same position of me made redundant has 1 daughter and had another one on way trying to get by grinding, which obviously isn't ideal when ur wife hates gambling even if your bringing home a rake.

I thought the other guy was a bit nuts drinking while playing poker, he obviously cant be at the top of his game drunk. slightly arrogant to think he knows all he needs to know and the game is constantly evolving,

all in all a good watch :)

I really liked it, it was very good.

Spoiler:
only part that didn't seem realistic was that that one guy won with Pocket Jacks

I see what you did thar......

When I first started playing in 2009, I was at a live card room and someone made a comment about jacks. The dealer then says "there's 3 ways to play jacks and they are all wrong."

Whenever someone talks about jacks I instantly think of that.

Does anybody know anywhere else? (Not a fan of iTunes)

Just watched it and it was ok at best. Basically gives you a look at the life of a grinder with a good focus on the personal (away from table) side.

Found a link to it here:
http://ww3.tvo.org/video/175413/grinders
(might only work for Canadians, not sure)
