i actually liked the stu ungar story. (i am sure i'm going to take some heat for this.) rounders is a great movie, but the ungar film pretty vividly portrayed the highs, the lows, and the grind of a poker gambler.

consider your 'heat' given -

I have never been more disappointed in a movie ever - I loved casting Christopher (from Sopranos) in the role, and was very excited to see this movie - but it was a steaming pile -

everyone do themselves a favor and read the book ONE OF A KIND that came out recently about Stu, it actually tells his story in a comprehensible fashion
