Hey y'all,
This Tuesday we'll show you "Stuey", aka "High Roller: The Stu Ungar Story"!
Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89Z2QgKdJ3g&feature=youtube_gdata
Based on a true story, "Stuey" tells the story of Stu "The Kid" Ungar, a
card prodigy who grew up playing high-stakes gin rummy in New York by the
time he has fourteen, and running for his life at twenty ? escaping to Las
Vegas ahead of angry mobsters, forced to leave his life behind. He made
good on his debt by winning a gin rummy tournament, then made his name by
winning the World Series of Poker the very first time he played, in 1980.
Then he won it again in 1981 ? the youngest player ever. By 1989, he'd
lost it all: a victim of the Vegas lifestyle, and his own excesses.
