Worm: [sitting inside Jo's jeep, outside the fraternity house] Here's the play: I know this girl Barbra I was so close to banging her before I went away, she works as a hostess for all the trust fund babies in there, she got me in their game, she introduces me as her "cousin" from out of town who loves to gamble and wants to win at poker. Mike McDermott: It sounds solid, that's a nice hook up Worm: It's all the way nice, but I got this "feeling". Mike McDermott: What "feeling" is that exactly? Worm: You know this "feeling", I got the table all set, knife, fork, sauce... Mike McDermott: [Implying Worm doesn't have money to buy into this game] You just don't have the "steak" Worm: Exactly Mike McDermott: [Giving Worm money] here's two twenty, that'll get you started Worm: Two twenty? Thanks but that's like eleven bets I can't even get a table in here. Mike McDermott: Then forget this game I'll straighten you out in the city tomorrow. Worm: I'm already behind here. Mike McDermott: You just got out, what's the big fucking hurry? Worm: The hurry is other than you, there are five guys eagerly waiting my release. Mike McDermott: How much do you owe? Worm: Like ten. Mike McDermott: Ten? Worm: I can't even figure it out with the juice. I can get started on this easy if it's you and me working together. Mike McDermott: I heard you asking me before and I hear you asking now but I can't do that, I just can't do that, I've made promises. Worm: I totally understand, its fine. I'll just make a couple moves earlier than I would've before.

This is it. So get this. Here's the plan. I know this girl Barbara. She's fuckin' hot. I was this close to bangin' her when they sent me away. She works as a hostess for all these fuckin' trust fund babies in here. She got me into their little game. She introduced me as her cousin from out of town... who loves to gamble but wants to learn poker. That sounds solid. That's a nice hookup. It's all the way nice. There's only one problem. I got this feeling. - What feeling is that, exactly? - You know this feeling very well. - When you got your table all set. - Uh-huh. - Knife, fork, sauce, A-1, Luger's, but- - Yeah. - You just don't have the steak. - Exactly. Glad you understand. A nickel would start me very nicely. Jesus, what have you been livin' on? I'm livin' a little light, I told you. - Anyway, that's $220, so that'll get you started. - $220, I mean- Hey, thanks, but that's, like, 11 bets. I can't even get a table on this- Good, so forget this game. I'll straighten you out in the city tomorrow. No way. I gotta get started. I'm already behind here. You just got out. What's the big fuckin' hurry? The hurry is, other than you, my friend, there's about five guys... like, eagerly awaiting my release. - How much do you owe? - Like, ten. - Ten? - I can't even figure it with the juice. Hey, look, I can get started on this easy if it's you and me working together. I heard you asking before, and I hear you asking now, but I can't do that. I just can't do that. I've made promises. Hey, you know what? What am I saying? I totally understand, I do. It's fine. I'll make a couple of moves earlier than I would have normally- - But thanks, I appreciate it. - Premium hands. - I'll catch you in the city tomorrow? - Yeah, definitely. Hey, Mike, man. Fuckin' great to see ya. You too. In Confessions of a Winning Poker Player, Jack King said... "Few players recall big pots they have won, strange as it seems... but every player can remember with remarkable accuracy... the outstanding tough beats of his career." Seems true to me. 'Cause walking in here... I can hardly remember how I built my bankroll... but I can't stop thinking of how I lost it. - Hi. - Barbara. Worm said you'd be running a little late. Just follow me. I probably won't even sit. You know, just kinda keep him company. No, no, that's not gonna work. Here's the play- You're my new boyfriend. You're looking for a regular game. Really? I'm not much of a card player. Bullshit. Worm tells me that's precisely what you are. My cut is 25%. - I see. - Good. Come on. Gentlemen. - This is my boyfriend Michael. - Hello, Michael. Be nice to him. Leave him enough money to buy me breakfast.
