I never got to see this movie fully thank God, but i did catch big chunks of it on TV, and I have to say this is awful, absolutely gutting! The setting, music, acting and script all seem to be indicative of soft porn but somehow it isn't, and worst of all they always make porn references. The closest to porn is probably the hotel room incident with the blonde girl, but even that is weird.The girls are gorgeous make no mistake, and I still think that they had failed porn careers (alongside the producer) then changed their names and wanted to go legit (since my searches didn't show much)! However, this movie is HIGHLY unrecommended even to the poker die hards! Bottom line, you are better off without this junk, go play poker or watch a soft porn flick instead!

First off, i wish there was a way to give a negative rating on movies. Second, i cant believe someone sat there, read the script, thought it was good. Shot a pilot, thought it was good. Went out and drummed up money, got a cast, shooting crew, scouted locations... I mean come on. SERIOUSLY!! burn every copy ever made and kick the producer in the nuts. I swear if he thought this was his big break or something, it was not his big break. It must have been some porno producer that wanted to "go legit" I never, ever make comments on movies, but I am seriously upset with myself I even spent the time to skip forward thu the whole movie. I saw about 3 seconds of tits. that was it. a complete cock up. a waste of time. dig a hole and put this in the ground. im sure that if i took a crap in a bucket and smeared it on my TV I would have enjoyed it more than watching that movie. its almost so bad that i would love to give it out as a gift to people I hate! kill it, kill it now, and kill it fast!! i feel sorry for whoever sunk money into this thinking they were going to make it rich.

OMG it was so bad! I can't believe I actually watched the whole thing. The writing was HORRID and the acting was worse. If you know anything about poker, this movie will irritate the crap out of you. Scene after scene of total screw-ups. Playing out of turn at random, folding and losing all of your chips even though you still have a big stack in front of you, betting 40,000 with a big stack of blue and calling with a big stack of green, then betting 40,000 with a short stack of green in the very next move... One guy even deals backwards. Inconsistencies throughout! And the mediocre "eye candy" doesn't make it any better. You can see way too much cellulite during the gratuitous bikini scenes.The idea behind the movie is kind of nice, but the absolute slaughter of the game is too distracting. The "pretty funny" outtakes during the credits are better than most of the acting throughout.Spend an hour watching grass grow or paint dry... it will be better spent!

this movie about three gals who try to cheat at poker to make money at first had me intrigued, since i love anything dealing with poker! we are first introduced to the con leader Elle who shows her two friends the underground poker scene. the three girls are soon making money the easy way as they go from one illegal casino to another. they make a killing against a seasoned pro named Mr Chow, who we will see later on in the story. Brooke who sees how easily the money is made to try and make it at a legal casino and gets overconfident. she does this by herself without cheating and promptly loses all the money while her friend Piety is sleeping and Elle is getting her groove on. a fight ensues between Brooke and the other two and we see Brooke trying to make a living going back to a 9 to 5 job. but she soon realizes that poker is her calling and the three mend their fences, and get an invitation to a big tournament in Rio DE Janeiro. this invite was sent by none other than Mr Chow who gets his chance for revenge against the three. Brooke is made to play against a tough table of pros without cheating. this movie actually had a great premise, but got bogged down by poor acting. they were all stiff as they come, heck the loosest actor was the cowboy that Elle gets acquainted with! all in all a waste of time if not for the eye candy.
