The Christmas holidays are here, and I thought I would use some of the time (in addition to good food, rest and poker) to watch movies. I actually very rarely watch movies so I would rather not just watch something random. So I would be particularly interested in movies about poker (or gambling) , the kind where the game is not just a superficial decoration, but is actually part of the story. Rounders is probably the only one I have watched.

Any recommendations?
 
You could try Molly’s Game or a much older movie, California Split.

Наступили рождественские каникулы, и я подумал, что помимо вкусной еды, отдыха и покера, я бы использовал часть времени на просмотр фильмов. На самом деле я очень редко смотрю фильмы, поэтому не хотел бы просто смотреть что-нибудь случайное. Поэтому меня особенно интересуют фильмы о покере (или азартных играх), где игра не просто поверхностное украшение, а часть сюжета. Наверное, «Шулера» — единственный такой фильм, который я смотрел.

Есть какие-нибудь рекомендации?
Molly's game

Definitely! That was going to be my choice too. ❤️

Thank you all for suggestions! Ended up watching California Split, which can recommend to others as well. I enjoyed California Split because it doesn't offer easy answers, but leaves the viewer wondering what winning really means. Still some vacation left, probably will watch some other movie as well. 🙂
