Which poker star would make the best movie star

sharpone · May 30, 2009

:deal: I always wondered with the rising popularity of poker in America, i was wondering when our poker giants make that jump to the big screen. Im thinking Patrick Attonious becuase he use to be a model, use to being in front of the camera. Maybe Phil Ivey, hmmm what does everyone else think?

I don't know which one would make the best,but if you ever seen that movie lucky you,I know it isn't going to be sam farha.
Mike matusow would probably make a good onw though.

Vanessa Rousso. As I have this reply box in front of me searching for an answer to why, I honestly didn't want to admit I found her to be the least bit hot, but here we are ;p

Jennifer Tilly and Shannon Elizabeth. ... Oh wait....

negreanu

You know i can see daniel negreanu doing some acting ,but he would have to star in a broke poor kid from nothing to where he is now.that would be something to see .

There's a couple I wouldn't mind seeing in porn.........ooops, did I say that!

Can I use that word here? LOL

And I meant women. LOL

Personally Sammy Farha would be my pick. He's so smooth.

Pokertron3000 · May 30, 2009

Scotty Nygen in wishmaster BABY!

Monoxide · May 30, 2009

daniel N. was in xmen ldo

SavagePenguin · May 30, 2009

The best story is probably Scotty Nguyen. He went from almost eating his brother (due to starvation on an illegal immigration boat) to the wsop ME winner (and $50k HORSE winner).

I just dont see any of them like movie stars...but i'm sure many of them would have been great actors...they allready are at the poker tables

CheeseConey · May 30, 2009

I think the Devilfish would make a good villain.

PattyR · May 30, 2009

i think phil hellmuth would make a good something......... lol

who knows what ....but he could be someone who degrades everyone else and has no friends lol

pfb8888 · May 31, 2009

mike matusow as the rodney dangerfield character in a remake of caddyshack?

Makwa · May 31, 2009

Put Laak and Matusow in one of those goofy road movies, where they drive across the country chasing girls and trying to get to the WSOP.

Tenessee123 · May 31, 2009

Daniel N.

Well Daniel N. Would be good. I liked him in the new Xmen movie.

^ this. I can totally see him in a Guy Ritchie movie or something. Though they'd have to get him to stop dressing like a 15 year old and go back to his suits and knuckle dusters.

Otherwise, I dunno. Anyone else see Hevad Kahn doing OK in a Jim Carrey type role?

And LOL @ the talk about Negreanu in Wolverine. He had a two second non-speaking cameo, where he used his epic acting skills to convince the world that he was... a poker player. Seriously, LOL.

Durrrr Reminds me of finch out of American Pie so im sure he'd be pretty good as a geek wanting to get laid in a high school movie

Velutha · May 31, 2009

I want to see Chris Ferguson in a western. He fit right in with the Tombstone posse.

brianvoytek · Jun 1, 2009

I would go with Howard Lederer the Teacher in a remake of that crappy movie "21". Mike the Mouth in a movie about drug use and Doyle as a cowboy in a "Tombstone" type of movie. (he would be the guy sitting at the table in the bar playing poker. lol)

Big stretches huh? lol

MFaith · Jun 1, 2009

I would think someone with a bit of charisma, like Scotty Nguyen or Joe Hachem.

PoKeRFoRNiA · Jun 1, 2009

I would say Negreanu as Norton

nugsmoke · Jun 1, 2009

any of the hot chicks!!!! but daniel n. would be great bc of his personality. other than that patrick a. is also a good one. phil laak. Shannon elizebeth? oh ya nevermind!!

Theblueduce · Jun 1, 2009

I could see Phil Gordon as a sub teacher in the remake of Blackboard Jungle.
