It involved a call, check or raise scenario, but I can’t remember which part he spoke incorrectly. Just used the wrong terminology with those three options at play.

So if a character tells his wife he’s flying to Germany but meant to say France, and it’s not tied to a plot point or corrected by the man, that would have a valid reason to be in a script?tree_ wrote:sure it is. why not?

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I think Hadish was a bad casting choice, she didn't really fit the role or the tone of the movie. Didn't notice the poker gaffe but I wasn't enthralled. Pretty forgettable movie.

this isn't a tutorial on how to play cards.. it's a movie about characters and how/why they're interacting... nobody caught any errors and it doesn't affect the plot so it doesnt' matterlennytheweedwhacker wrote:So if a character tells his wife he’s flying to Germany but meant to say France, and it’s not tied to a plot point or corrected by the man, that would have a valid reason to be in a script?tree_ wrote:sure it is. why not?
