…rockiest, nittiest, supposed amateur I have ever seen…

Oh boy this clip of High Stakes poker just cracks me up!

..as usual there is a lot of talk around the poker table and this time its about movies, just love the line, “poker players think that any movie with a hooker in it is a love story…”.  Ha just cracks me up!!!

We all dream of playing poker against the big name poker pros and trying to beat them.  But in reality we would come second every time!!!  I have to say I am impressed with Nick Cassavetes and how he handles himself.  Sam Simon, the Simpsons producer/writer didn’t really do much in these last few episodes, but Cassavetes has had presence at the poker table has handled himself well and had the poker pros guessing!  Pulls a very nice poker bluff against the Prof, Howard Lederer in this clip, now that cant be too easy, but he manages it.

In fact I’m sure Howard Lederer didn’t enjoy watching this on tv afterwards… because he folds and pulls out more than once

Daniel Negreanu pays hima compliment and calls him the rockiest, nittiest, supposed amateur I have ever seen… (what is nittiest????).

  1. Cassavetes is not bad for an amateur, he holds his own at the HS poker table and the pros respect him.
