Rounders: Win or Get YOUR MONEY BACK – Tonight!

So, even if you are not a fan of the movie Rounders, you likely know who Phil Ivey and David Williams are: professional poker players who are now part of our partner site, Rosters.com.  In the 1998 movie Rounders, Matt Damon plays Mike McDermott, a regular guy who loves poker and dreams of someday playing in the World Series of Poker.  Trouble is the middle name of his best friend, Worm (Edward Norton). When Worm gets out of jail, all hell breaks loose as his death wish allows Mike to realize his potential as a card player and break away from his past and to realize his dream. 

Rounders is one of my favorite movies, but there is great difference between poker and daily fantasy sports. In daily fantasy sports, everyone starts with the same starting hand (salary cap) and can select any cards (players) that they want. They simply do not know the exact value of those cards (players) until the games are played.  In poker there are many elements of luck like which cards you get to start with and what cards you are dealt.

“They're trying to goad me, trying to own me. But this isn't a gunfight. It's not about pride or ego. It's only about money. I can leave now, even with Grama and KGB... and halfway to paying Petrovsky back. That's the safe play. I told Worm you can't lose what you don't put in the middle. But you can't win much either.”

That is right, we are trying to GOAD you in to playing against us. Rosters.com has decided to GUARANTEE everyone is a winner tonight in a contest versus the Fantasy Alarm team.  That is RIGHT.  No risk.

In Rounders, Mike’s challenge is to manage his old self-destructive friend Worm (Ed Norton) and get his debt paid off so that they both won’t be killed by the loan shark and poker player, Teddy KGB (John Malkovich).  Definitely a must-see for anyone who has ever played Texas Hold ‘Em as the scenes with the poker being played are fantastically done and unlike Casino Royale, the players are not raising with 5-7 suited.  When you are playing and having fun on Rosters.com, you will make the games so much more fun and it makes me think of the zeal that Worm has when he is trying to console Mike who just lost his girlfriend over the trouble they are in:

Rolled up aces over kings. Check-raising stupid tourists and taking huge pots off of them. Playing all-night high-limit Hold'em at the Taj, "where the sand turns to gold." Stacks and towers of checks I can't even see over.
