Doyle's life needs no artistic license. He was one of the country's best basketball player in college (and was so good at track he dominated without seriously training), beated cancer miracoulously, had his wife beat cancer miraculously, was so down sometimes he had to borrow for the money to phone his wife from the casino, played in mob games with shotguns lying around, got mugged and robbed countless times and toured the country with Sailor and Slim (probably colluding along the way ala Rounders style) playing in high stakes game when no one was playing high stakes games except thugs. Ellix Powers (reportedly homeless) and Howard Lederer (gambled his pay everyday before becoming a winning player and then turning pro) would also make for good stories.

It would be like the LOTR movies, they would have to cut on scenes characters to make it fit. And there is already a movie about Stu Ungar.

PS: For those who think that Hellmuth doesn't know how to play cash games, please to be looking on pokertube for hist first hand against Mattusow in HSP4.
