It makes a long time now since the last poker related movie I saw. I still haven’t had the chance to watch “Rounders”, and some friends told me it was nice, with some good action. But, instead of watching just a romance with some plays, I think they could think about making a movie about poker at Michael Moore’s style. I think everyone would have a lot to win with a documentary like that. He would for sure enter in the complex world of Las Vegas and Macau, and also in some high stakes-to-broke cases, but he would explain a lot about the online movement. I think that is something which is missing in the knowledge of the common sense.

Heard about this .. it's always nice tbh but justin timberlake its really -EV. I don't like affleck as an actor too much but he loves poker so i can endure it. The script writers are the same of rounders so i guess the probability of failure is thiner and leonardo di caprio will be one of the producers (?). This movie is more focused in modern poker (online) style so i think it might be an interesting movie and most needed.
