It tells the story of Bobby, who is going through a rough patch at the tables and decides to rob a high stakes poker game, which will have dangerous consequences. This film was released in 2015 and went unnoticed by the public despite featuring performances by Paul Sorvino (Paulie in “Goodfellas”) and Robert Knepper (“T-Bag” in the TV series “Prison Break”). In my opinion I think the movie doesn’t do justice to Stu’s incredible life, but it’s still a good approach for younger people who don’t know anything about Ungar.

WPT commentator Vince Van Patten has a supporting role in the film. It shows his childhood where he was raised by a mobster, his victories in Las Vegas and his problems with addictions. The life of three-time WSOP Main Event champion Stu Ungar was portrayed in this film starring Michael Imperioli (“The Sopranos”).
