Rounders (8/12) Movie CLIP - Johnny Chan (1998) HD

Johnny Chan: I never told anyone this, but I sat down with Jason Bourne. He’s had some tough luck lately, so I let him win a hand.

Mike: "I played against Tom Dwan. I reraised, and he sat there for 2 hours without blinking before mucking it."

I remember playing at the Bellagio with Ivey to my left. I was UTG and saw I had aces. I open shoved for 700BB.He open folded 27off. I played with the BEST and I WON. I OUTPLAYED him right then and there

I went all in against my grandmother in go fish. Took her down big time.

...and then I said: "Do you like apples?" And Chan said: "Uhh...yeah". And I said: "Well I'm not going to tell you whether or not I had a good hand. How do you like them apples?"

I bluffed Mike Matusow once...Made him think I was buying him a cheeseburger and then left out the back door

Mike: I did get beat, but I know I'm good enough to play in the NBA. I never told anybody this. About 8-9 months ago, I'm shooting hoops at Rucker Park when Lebron James walks in. The whole place stops cause it's Lebron the f'n "King" James. And people are challenging him like to pickup games, 21, Around the World, Horse. So I got into a big game of Horse. Knish: Impossible. You need 300, 400 bucks for the buy in. Mike: Well I had 10 bucks, but I had to know. So I'm just hanging around the court, passing the ball, doing nothing for about 15 minutes when I decided, I'm going to beat him on this shot. I'm just going to out-shoot the guy. So I went to mid-court and I let one fly. Knish: Nothing but net? Mike: No it hit the backboard and then rattled around the rim a bunch of times before it finally slopped in. "You made THAT shot?" he says. "That's an 'H on you Bron" I replied and then I picked up my ball and walked away. I took on the best in the NBA and I WON.

"It wasn't a bad beat, I wasn't unlucky. I got outplayed." Man losing 9s full over aces to an aces full over 9s is practically the definition of a bad beat. Your big mistake was gambling with money you knew you couldn't afford to lose.

I played with Phil helmuth and went all in on seven deuce..he calls and I win with 2 pair..he said "honey look at this idiot going all in on seven deuce, bunch of internet players, u aren't gonna last long"

I know that this is a Matt Damon scene, but anyone else noticed Turturro's incredible acting here? His expressions? You see in his face that he lives the scene that Mike recounts, that thrill he feels about the fact that Mike sat down with the best and held his own. What an amazing, versatile and criminally underrated actor.

"I played against John Juanda. I re-raised pre-flop and he folded trips".

I played with Phil Helmuth. I had nothing and didn't win a hand, but he definitely out screamed everyone at that table.

Folded a hour and won one hand preflop. Didn't mention he's still down 2k for the night folding blinds 😂

"Re-raised. You play right back at em, huh?"

im sorry JOHN i dont remember

Never seen anyone else so supportive and excited when listening others

- "you need 50-60 grand to get in that game" - "well I had 6 bucks but I'm Matt Damon and I had to know"

Randomly betting your entire bankroll in one hand vs a pro who plays tens of thousands of hands does not count as fucking outplaying anybody.

I made a move on Scottie Nguyen once and he asked me did you have it baby

He won 1 hand. Sick sample size sir.
