There wasn't much poker played in this excuse for a movie, so I don't know where the title came from. I bought the DVD at a dollar shop and was still hurt at losing the cost. On the title cover it had, winner of best film and other accolades from the Chicago Film Festival, I'd hate to see the other entrants. A tip for anyone visiting Chicago when they hold a film festival, pay the extra and go to Cannes.There is nothing good I can say about this movie, it was just awful. The acting, the script, the direction. I didn't watch it till the end, it was too much like slow torture, 45 minutes in seemed like 5 hours. My advice is, even for a dollar, don't bother.
