View Full Version : James Woods at Commerce


12-27-2005, 02:20 AM
I was at Commerce tonite, playing 100NL, and James Woods walked right past me and sat down two tables over. He was playing 100 as well and I requested a table change to try to play with him. He was sitting with a hot blond girl but the seat never opened.

If anyone can tell me how to post a pic from my cameraphone I will gladly share.

why? think he wouldn't be 'wasting' his time playing $1,000 or $10,000 NL?

well lets assume this guy is well off like most movie stars are

why would he be playing 100NL when he has the bankroll to jump into a 200NL or even a 400NL just to learn?

IMHO he isnt making the most of his time

I agree considering how soft the other games are. I think maybe he was teaching the hot young blond girl how to play, they sat next to each other at the table.

I have read elsewhere that he plays 10/20 NL fairly often. He was probably playing the $100 game because of the blond chick. If he ended up banging her I wouldn't call it a waste of time.

excellent point

for a guy that draws 2 mil for 2nd or 3rd lead, I would have to agree

james woods does not make 2 mil a picture. actors are not paid nearly as much as you think.

my brother has played 10/20 NL with him.

regardless, saying it's a 'waste of time' for him to play any specific game is silly.

Bill Gates is known to play 3/6 limit. as somebody else said, some guys just like to have fun.

Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, and many others make 25 million a picture. I don't know what James Woods makes, but 1 or 2 million would not definitely not be an overestimate.

i was told the bill gates 3/6 thing by the dealers at the mirage around 2000/2001 when i was there for the ces/avn

Hmmm, wasn't 2000 around the time he was worth ~$94B? Now he's worth between $45-50B. I'm assuming his game of choice has decreased proportional to his net worth. So I guess he now plays 2/4 or probably more likely 1/2?

Someone on this board said they played 2/4 with Chuck Norris. Can't remember where I read that though.

There's no link.

I've seen him playing 3/6 at the Mirage.
