Originally, it was called Stuey. It has been renamed High Roller: The Stu Ungar Story (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338467/).

It's playing occassionally on the Starz channels and will soon start being available on Starz On-Demand.

For what it's worth I watched the whole movie. It's about as good as Tilt on ESPN which I stopped watching after 2 episodes.
Disclaimer: I only watched two episodes of Tilt because it was in High Def and I just got a new High Def TV.

The acting in the movie (With the exception of Michael Imperioli) is so bad, that this movie is completely laughable. Its too bad, because it really is a great (yet tragic) story, but unfortunately it was done very poorly.
