The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Ok, my list would go something along the lines of this, but again hard to limit to 10. I'm a bit of a movie freak underneath, and even ended up managing a video store for a few years, and they called it work??? LOLOL!


City of Angels
The Green Mile (still not as good as the book, but i still cried for John Coffee)
Labyrinth
Shawshank Redemption
The Matrix (all of them, is that cheating?)
American History X (a very shocking film, but a MUST SEE)
Bladerunner
Back to the Future (again, loved all of them, had a HUGE crush on Michael J Fox Embarrassed)
Leon
Rounders
Goonies (I know that's 11, but I could list many many more!)
