I wrote a subtitled Hitler Downfall "Meme' video on poker last year which I posted on NVG which people seemed to like. (Tony G reacts to Isildur1 busting)
For a while I thought of combining a Rounders film version in a foreign language of this post - linking the actual footage from the movie with his funny, funny, faux script for a film called Eurorounders.

It's a story I'm sure many of the readers of the board are familiar with and have read before - it's pretty funny. My brother who doesn't play poker but loves Rounders laughed loads without understanding all the poker references
Last week whilst trying to find out who wrote it I eventually established it was written by an ex-poster on 2+2 named 'Saddlepoint,' his first name IRL, Evan. I then found Evan took his own life, two years ago (next week) which is totally tragic. I think he was only 24 at the time.
I decided to try and match his words with the actual movie - in Spanish so I could subtitle it up. The point being if you can't understand the words - I'm only any good with English, French and a bit of Cantonese - it's funnier.
So if you understand Spanish it probably ain't going to work for you unless you turn the sound off.
I've tried to use Evan's words wherever possible but what I thought would be a 5 minute movie has turned into a 25 minute one as I've tried to shoehorn everything in and added a load. The first five minutes of it are below.
If you like them I'm pleased. I never had the pleasure of meeting or speaking to Evan but I know he did and continues to bring a whole bunch of pleasure to people who enjoy poker, movies and laughing and random stuff.
The rest of movie is pretty much finished - if any of his friends or family are offended by the fact I'm using some of his words please PM me and I'll take it down but I just hope I've done his original idea justice with my extrapolation...
If people want the other twenty minutes I've made then just ask and I'll post here.
