Saw this one the other day, and liked it.
"The worst enemy of the poker player is luck--not good luck or bad, but the concept of luck itself. A poker player considering luck in planning his moves at the poker table is like the Pope contemplating marriage. The thought is heresy and can only lead to trouble."
-Nesmith C. Ankeny

August 3rd, 2016 update: Matt Damon recently revealed in an interview that he has had some preliminary discussions with the writers of the original "Rounders" move about possibly doing a sequel. According to Damon, the movie would look at how the likes of Mike McDermott and "Worm" would do in a poker world that is now populated by young players who have played millions of hands by the time that they are 21.
April 2nd, 2017 update: According to one of the co-writers of Rounders, Brian Koppelman, Miramax continues to own the rights to "Rounders". Until Miramax decides to move ahead with the sequel, Koppelman says, the movie will continue to remain in limbo.
