So I'm thinking there's a lot of really good stuff out there online, much of it done by some our own community members. I'm also sure I'm only aware of a small fraction of what's out there. Furthermore, I want to have this list so I can easily find this stuff in the future as cpu is grinding to a halt with so many tabs open at all times
Nosebleed (French with subtitles) follows Seb86 & Alexonmoon as they grind the high stakes mixed games. Follows them from grinding at home to chasing WSOP bracelets in Vegas - really insightful and they've also since released some deleted scenes which are supposedly great but have yet to be translated/subtitled if I'm mistaken
Tuff Fish Video Series if you haven't yet experienced tuff fish this is a must watch, he was someone who studied and worked at the game, used a hud etc but lacked that 2nd gear and was always victimized by tilt
he recorded these sessions to upload to cardrunners in order to get feedback from coaches/peers irc and they obviously went pretty big
not a documentary but more just a time capsule of joy of the days when you could just could autopilot nit mode and print
there's also this channel which has a lot of his videos which are just great
Bet, Raise, Fold - the Story of Online Poker
never saw this but looking forward to it, appears to be released just last month
For Love or money? A poker documentary
2 years old, haven't seen it yet
The mental game
Haven't seen, follows Tony Dunst, Asher Conniff, & Tim Reilly
Ultimate Beat
Haven't seen, 2017 doc on the Ultimate Bet scandal
The million dollar Deal
Haven't seen yet,looks kinda cheesy by title, opening sequence and that it's narrated by John Hurt and has appearances from matt damon and the regular tv crowd
Last Call
Finnish doc series made by 2p2s own Chuck Bass with English subtitles so I'll let Chuck introduce it
It has its own thread as well https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...-more-1798994/
Team Domeski
Kind of cringey group of teens/early twenties kids starting a grind house (but to be fair I think most of us would have come off that way at that age) - infamous for its scene where they do a 10k prop bet with stealthmunk and he flies down to their party to race their chosen ringer in chugging a fifth
can't embed since it's vimeo (edit nope looks like it can!)
thread about the 10k prop bet https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/5...-tonight-8033/
Story of the Richest Heads Up Game
Doc about the corporation vs Andy Beal - haven't seen and have very low expectations for it given the intro
Grinders
Haven't seen, 3 months old, very low expectations cause it's where the filmmaker tries his hand at playing poker for a living - my guess is it didn't work out
No Limit - Seach for the American Dream
You know it's going to suck opening up with a Puzo quote, and just skimming comments is quite clear the person they follow sucks at poker - could be good for the lols, haven't seen it
All In
haven't seen, it's new and highly rated, focuses on moneymaker, can't wait to see it
Easy Game
Series of short docs on various players have only seen the one on ADZ124 thus far
playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7v55...e-AXnKdZ5RlcLS
infamous on ADZ124 (rip)
Inside Underground Poker
haven't seen it but looks terrible given they got christopher maltasanti to narrate it and it's done by nat geo - skimming through it looks so fake and bs - actually pretty sure i have seen this when it aired and is terrible as there's some scenes skimming through that seem really familiar
Chase the Dream
haven't seen it, don't think i will docu series where dude goes to texas to play and build a roll for wsop, sounds like some broke idiot got inspired by rounders - claims he's a pro player but I doubt it given all the red flags that scream he isn't
Devil Fish
corporate made doc to shill their spokesperson - doubt I'll bother watching it for that reason
Two months Two million
Been meaning to watch this forever and finally found it
From Busto to Robusto
A classic, also been meaning to watch for a while
Poker Kings
About chasing WSOP greatness, seems decent and opens with Varkony and then later see an appearance by Hellmuth
One of a Kind - Rise and Fall of Stu Ungar
haven't seen, looks like basic cable bs
High Stakes - Story of Sam Trickett
focuses on the one drop, could be decent but also has a lot of basic cable vibes
Can't find but seen mentions of
Chasing the Royal Flush
pros play in WSOP
The Big Blind
high stakes battles
The Group
high stakes players
The Ultimate Bet
UB's rise and fall
Cowboys Full
history of poker
The Bet
3 pros play WSOP
I'm sure there's plenty from way back in the day that I haven't heard of
anybody have any to add?

Hey all,
We've been filming a pretty major poker documentary series titled "LAST CALL" in six countries this fall and it's about to be released. The first season features the likes of Jens "Jeans89" Kyllönen, Patrik Antonius and Dara O'Kearney. The documentary follows Finnish rapper Uniikki's (the guy from this epic music video also starring Ziigmund) adventures in the poker world putting a major emphasis on the guests, which I think should be of huge interest to 2+2. The whole thing will be free to watch.
In case you've ever wondered how Jens climbed from freerolls to FTP nosebleeds in just two years, how much money Patrik Antonius has won lifetime, why Nordic players are so damn good at poker or just want to hear some Ziigmund stories, watch ahead
I'm one of the executive producers and the main screenwriter of the series, so yes this is a shameless ad, and yes you are welcome to roast me if you don't enjoy it
Trailer HERE (YouTube). English subtitles are available but you need to turn them on manually on YouTube (click the cogwheel icon).
The first episode, titled "Teenage Millionaire" where we tell Jens' story of becoming a millionaire overnight will be released in Finland on Nov 29th. English version will follow approximately 2-3 weeks later.
