Nonetheless, Doyle represents the 'Texas' in NL Texas Holdem. Molly's Game wasn't really about Molly but rather the underworld of celebrity gambling. Could be pretty good if it is about Doyle moving through the worlds of road gambling, mob Vegas, etc.Īgree with some of your points. If the movie is about Doyle the man, and his childhood and love life it will suck. From Chan to Knish to underground games run by the mob. It was interesting because it took us on a tour of this seedy, dangerous and fascinating world we knew nothing about.
Poker players and poker itself are pretty boring and what little is interesting about them doesn't translate well to cinema.
