Follows a couple of French high stakes players at the WSOP. Really enjoyed it and think you guys will too. Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: KarmaDope on December 03, 2014, 08:40:39 PM This was linked in one of the diaries a couple of days ago. Absolutely brilliant, well worth a watch.
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Matt.NFFC. on December 03, 2014, 10:31:18 PM Just watched it, really good documentary.
Oh how the other half live! Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Tractor on December 03, 2014, 10:37:24 PM Thanks for the link, great viewing.
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Oxford_HRV on December 03, 2014, 10:53:40 PM I find it great how they can find just kicking around cardboard in the street just as amusing as any avg non balla, brought a smile to my face there. They haven't been brainwashed to crave such a materialistic lifestyle like most with their wealth who would turn their noses up at such a thing.
Also how much Gus is made out to be such a fish donk made me laugh. Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: action man on December 04, 2014, 01:30:48 AM alex's girlfriend seems a really nice person
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: atdc21 on December 04, 2014, 01:20:23 PM obv they dont play on the same tables, being sat next to each other n all ?
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: cambridgealex on December 04, 2014, 07:08:19 PM Thanks for posting this Ryan, the best documentary I've seen about poker. Well except for the hilarious ones with Trumper, Mad Marty etc of course!
Big respect for those guys. Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Doobs on December 04, 2014, 07:41:29 PM obv they dont play on the same tables, being sat next to each other n all ? They play Rock Paper Scissors for the seat in the film. They don't live in the same place, when they are together in the film one is visiting the other. I guess one sitting on his own cursing the screen doesn't make such great tv. Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: cambridgealex on December 04, 2014, 07:52:10 PM They did seem to say "we" a lot, as if they shared bankrolls or at least had very large pieces in each others action.
"We had $500k, when we got to $1m we played x, we we took shots at y limit" etc Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Doobs on December 04, 2014, 08:14:14 PM They did seem to say "we" a lot, as if they shared bankrolls or at least had very large pieces in each others action. "We had $500k, when we got to $1m we played x, we we took shots at y limit" etc Yeh, just assumed they shared a roll, particularly when taking shots. But one also took delight in saying the other had nearly gone busto too, so maybe a bit of it is just language issues. Don't suppose they are going to be up to much given it is all in the open on film now. Going to be hard to collude from here anyway. Did love the film, cheers Ryan Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: rfgqqabc on December 05, 2014, 02:11:33 AM alex's girlfriend seems a really nice person No sarcasm right? I thought she came off pretty well. Lots of motivation to get ahead of that curve :) Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Pinchop73 on December 05, 2014, 02:13:03 PM alex's girlfriend seems a really nice person Is that you Gus? :p Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: action man on December 05, 2014, 03:49:11 PM that infuriated me when she said thanks gus
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: Kmac84 on December 05, 2014, 04:38:50 PM that infuriated me when she said thanks gus Why? She has obviously benefited. Million the trollop is working. Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: DropTheHammer on December 06, 2014, 01:16:53 AM that infuriated me when she said thanks gus She was speaking the truth though. Unlike most poker players when they say "Good luck!", they mean the total opposite ;whistle; Was very funny when Hansen really thought that the lad was playing the nosebleeds in order to learn and practice just to play the $50k donkament rotflmfao Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: tonge on December 13, 2014, 10:39:51 AM Decent watch that, interesting. How things change, when I started playing Bluescouse was closest thing to nosebleeds
Title: Re: Nosebleed Post by: neverbluff67 on December 20, 2014, 07:14:05 AM really liked it
Didn't like the constanr Gus bashing though especially when he was nice enough to give them an interview |
