"Rounders"

Watching the film "Rounders" growing up had a great impact on my life about taking risks. The movie followed two friends who need to quickly earn enough cash playing poker to pay off a huge debt. The term "rounder" refers to a person whose sole means of earning a living is by playing cards.

Mike (Matt Damon) has his highs and his very lowest of lows through out the film. The movie comes down to this final scene where he plays Teddy KGB heads-up and ultimately gets his revenge on him, taking "three stacks of high society" from the oreo-eating rounder or $30,000 which is the exact amount he loses in the opening scene of the film. This is one of the best scenes in the 1998 film, "Rounders." Have a look:
