    Based on a true story.

    Anyone have any prior knowledge of the bet?

    Looks like Vince Van Patten is back in the limelight.

    You mean the commercials for ClubWPT are not the “limelight”?

    It isn't clear which "true story" this is based upon.

    I do think the movie would look more interesting if it were about a poker degenerate playing in rich, private games, and all of the debauchery that went with it.

    This one seems more focused on the walk in the desert heat, which looks like it ceases to be interesting a few minutes in.

    I think the movie was Vince Van Patten's idea based on what he seen growing up around the rich Hollywood types that would gamble on anything. I think I'll go see it.
