    If Matt Damons character Mike McDermott really existed as a poker player today how would he do--would he be crushing live and online tourney/cash games? Or would he just be a good player with some decent scores?

    Winning player. Probably crushing mid-stakes cash live and online.

    If Snufalufagus were a real animal would he be mostly intimidating or mostly cuddly. I personally do not think he would be that nice in real life.

    In other news; Les "Worm" Murphy has been caught multiaccounting in the stars sunday million. Apparently he had nearly 15 accounts going at once. It is rumored that he was deep in debt with "Grama Bax". But we all knew that worm wouldn't be caught grinding it out on his leather ass.

    He'd be crushing it, because in the movie I never seen him have a losing session.

    Personally, I like to think that he goes out to Vegas and makes it big. But in real life, there are lots of ways to screw up...even with a lot of talent and whatnot. But this guy is probabably mature enough to navigate through the B.S.

    On a related note, this thread reminds me of how glad I am that there is no sequel to Rounders. The movie ends perfectly. No need to explore it any further. Unless it's just dudes talking on a discussion board of course.

    I missed the first 5 minutes, what the fuck happened?

    Yea guess he did get stacked, but when he was trying build the bankroll back up for worm, they made it look pretty easy.
