I remember there was a big thread on rgp, a year or so after the movie came out, and the biggest complaint was Damon's character didn't bang Famke when he had the chance to. The first post (of many) Brian Koppelman made in that thread was something along the lines of, "I think it's ridiculous that he turned her away, and I wrote the damn scene!" and then goes on to explain why he did it and why he thought it was a mistake afterward.

In some places you can get a comp when you sign up for a players card.

OR....Worm has a magnetic enough personality and was probably enough of a regular there that he sees some old friend of his on the floor of the blackjack pit and says, "hey...long time no see...can you score me a comp by any chance?"

There actually are different ways to get comped without having to sit the required number of hands at a blackjack table. It's not hard. Worm knows people!!

So I'm watching Rounders for the twentieth time (first time in a few years) and there are still 2 scenes that I can't understand what they are saying.

1) What does Roman/Maurice say when Mike comes in to the club to get Worm? Something about "new blood" and "stuck 2 racks"

2) When Mike wins at the end and KGB is swearing , I assume in Russian, what is he saying? "Volumat" or something like that. What does that word mean?

1)The russian outfit guy in the fake versace shirt says "Hey, Mike, you here to play? Come on, we need some new blood. They're putting a ****ing bracelet on me tomorrow for four months. I already stuck two racks."

2)He says 'Mother****er' but in a bad russian accent :P

He specifically asks Damon "Vant a cookie.." when he buys in the first time.

so maybe he asks everyone.

that's right...this thread will never die.

New blood= A New person to join the game.

Stuck 2 racks= Guessing the movie they are playing with $100 Chips a rack would be $10K. So basically he's down 10 Grand.

Except he's stuck 2 racks not one, but I thought they were playing with greens anyway.

Tis not hard to deduce people
This. Plus, it's a movie. It didn't really happen. Use your imagination.

2) I thinks, Teddy says "Ebanat" - which in Russian means something like "Stupid dumbass"...Sounds closer than "Yob tvoyu mat'", which literally translates " F u c k your mother"

Bottom Line:

OP: You'll need to play a bit at the Taj (maybe video poker?) to get comped at the noodle bar. Congrats on your release from Prison. Hope it was easy time.

I always thought that Roman said that he's 'already stuck 2 rocks' as in rocks being some sort of slang for a grand (as in being stuck 2 grand). Anyway im probably wrong but thats what i always thought watching the movie.

When he says i have to put a bracelet on for four months i think that means house arrest.

I actually didn't think it was to bad of a movie. It actually showed the struggle and pure degeneracy of poker pros.

As for Rounders it was the best poker movie to date and I am surprised they didn't make a sequel during the poker boom. IMO they missed a great opportunity as the movie was left wide open.

That's because it was a box office flop. It's hard to get financing for a squeal when the original made diddly.

Actually, when it was released, most poker players didn't really like it much because it portrayed all poker players as cheats. Here you have the superstar, clean-cut poker phenom law student that always knows what everyone has, who has "played the best and won" yet he's nothing more than a two-bit cheat, and the big climatic ending is that he's going to win without cheating. Lame.
