Episode 78: Rounders (1998)

from The Test of Time · host Alan Noah and James Brief

Matt Damon plays a reformed gambler drawn back into the world of underground poker in the 1998 movie, Rounders. Recorded live at Nick's Marathon, listen as we ponder the shelf life of a toothpick, why a good fake accent can still be distracting, and how this movie didn't really try too hard when it came to giving characters nicknames. (Worm? Joey Knish?? Teddy KGB???) We hope you don't call our bluff as we go all in and... third poker thing... to find out if Rounders stands the Test of Time.
