:deal: I always wondered with the rising popularity of poker in America, i was wondering when our poker giants make that jump to the big screen. Im thinking Patrick Attonious becuase he use to be a model, use to being in front of the camera. Maybe Phil Ivey, hmmm what does everyone else think?

I don't know which one would make the best,but if you ever seen that movie lucky you,I know it isn't going to be sam farha.
Mike matusow would probably make a good onw though.

Vanessa Rousso. As I have this reply box in front of me searching for an answer to why, I honestly didn't want to admit I found her to be the least bit hot, but here we are ;p

negreanu

You know i can see daniel negreanu doing some acting ,but he would have to star in a broke poor kid from nothing to where he is now.that would be something to see .

Personally Sammy Farha would be my pick. He's so smooth.

The best story is probably Scotty Nguyen. He went from almost eating his brother (due to starvation on an illegal immigration boat) to the wsop ME winner (and $50k HORSE winner).

Put Laak and Matusow in one of those goofy road movies, where they drive across the country chasing girls and trying to get to the WSOP.

^ this. I can totally see him in a Guy Ritchie movie or something. Though they'd have to get him to stop dressing like a 15 year old and go back to his suits and knuckle dusters.

Otherwise, I dunno. Anyone else see Hevad Kahn doing OK in a Jim Carrey type role? :p

And LOL @ the talk about Negreanu in Wolverine. He had a two second non-speaking cameo, where he used his epic acting skills to convince the world that he was... a poker player. Seriously, LOL.

I would go with Howard Lederer the Teacher in a remake of that crappy movie "21". Mike the Mouth in a movie about drug use and Doyle as a cowboy in a "Tombstone" type of movie. (he would be the guy sitting at the table in the bar playing poker. lol)

Big stretches huh? lol

I would think someone with a bit of charisma, like Scotty Nguyen or Joe Hachem.
