it depends. was it a Class IV-A, or a Class IV-B starcruiser? the Class IV-B had some great technological improvements to it. like the nexus warp modulator, the overcharge thrusters, cruise control, 6 disc changer, and extra cup holder.

"Seriously, what is the harm of discussing it?"

No harm, but it doesn't belong on a poker site, it belongs on a movie site or something.

And Teddy's hand was Aces and Tens. Why don't you believe me?

prolly because the picture looks like he's tossing pocket 10's.

"No harm, but it doesn't belong on a poker site,"

i find it a nice change of pace from the norm. also, since the movie involves alot of poker i think there's a place for some stuff on here. this isnt the first question regarding the movie. along with stuff about cincinatti kid...

"And Teddy's hand was Aces and Tens. Why don't you believe me?"

i cant remember the flop, whether it was rainbow or not...if it wasnt, then teddy would have a set, thinking mike may be drawing to his kicker, with maybe a gutshot draw...

and since teddy is tiliting, and doesnt think mike is as good much less better than himself. he may overbet this pot here. he also has the option to 'reload' at any time, and he thoroughly didnt expect to lose, given his reaction...he indicates that the A onthe last card couldnt have beat him alone, hence 2 pair is no good....the only thing that beats him is the str8. which mike has. and the A didnt help teddy's hand...what's the 2nd best hand on the flop that could only be beat again by AA on the river, which mike's play indicates he doesnt have from earlier rounds of betting? TT sounds good

it is kinda fun to analyze a movie hand....

fun thread...

Did they? Did Norton and Damon played in the WSOP 98?

Nice point. I also liked the movie even though some things might be so obvious. I don't think the movie was making some lessons how you should poker. The movie was making a very big deal of "tells" and since many pro poker players don't see this as their valuest thing it sure wasn't a lesson movie. It was entertaining and I did enjoyed it. Btw some tells was just so low, which mediocre played would even have done that?

Hehe I also want to play that easy game =) But life isn't always a fairytale =) But as long as I'm enjoying the game and win some I'm pleased.

It's been a long time since I've seen the movie, but I thought you could make out the cards as Teddy is mucking them.

No, you can't. As I said in my first post, I used Adobe Premiere to pull a specific frame from the movie with the cards shown and capture it. That's why I posted the picture because the only shot of the cards is as they are flying upwards after Teddy throws them on the table.

So much for certainty I guess.
