00:02:00,286 --> 00:02:01,888
I'm in.

2
00:02:03,356 --> 00:02:05,892
All right, ladies, $20.

3
00:02:08,394 --> 00:02:11,498
Hey, fruity cocktail,
you in or not?

4

I'm out.

JESSE: Let me guess, raise?

6
00:02:19,873 --> 00:02:21,274
Well, I wasn't going to,

7
00:02:21,341 --> 00:02:24,377
but now that you put the idea
in my head, sure, why not?

8
00:02:24,444 --> 00:02:27,213
I've seen that look before.
I'm out.

9
00:02:28,414 --> 00:02:30,283
ALEX: Sure you wanna do that?

10
00:02:31,417 --> 00:02:32,652
I think you're bluffing.

11
00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:33,863
WALLY: Throwing out the line.
ALEX: Could be.

12
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:35,722
Could also be that
the cards in my hand

13
00:02:35,788 --> 00:02:37,257
plus the cards that are showing

14
00:02:37,323 --> 00:02:38,925
give me an 86%
chance of winning.

15
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:42,262
But you know what? Go ahead, go all in.
You got a 14% window.

16

JESSIE: You are so full of shit.

17
00:02:43,429 --> 00:02:44,531
Am I? JESSIE: Yeah.

18
00:02:44,597 --> 00:02:46,266
This is so much fun,
gentlemen. I fold.

19
00:02:46,332 --> 00:02:47,634
Coming out.

20
00:02:50,103 --> 00:02:52,505
Shit, I didn't even
need that one.

21
00:02:52,572 --> 00:02:54,641
Oh. Damn it!
JESSE: Unbelievable.

22
00:02:54,707 --> 00:02:56,910

Every damn time, man.

23

KEVIN: Shit. God.

24
00:02:59,379 --> 00:03:02,415
One more round? JESSIE: I don't
wanna play with you anymore.

25
00:03:02,482 --> 00:03:03,883
Dude, this sucks.

26
00:03:03,950 --> 00:03:05,318
What sucks?

27
00:03:05,385 --> 00:03:06,452

32
00:03:19,432 --> 00:03:20,567

34

What? Yeah.

35
00:03:24,437 --> 00:03:25,371
She said she's calling you back
from, like, two weeks ago.

36
00:03:25,438 --> 00:03:28,041
Remember when you
drunk-dialed her?

37
00:03:28,107 --> 00:03:29,852
(STAMMERS) Well, tell her I'm not here...
Are you kidding me?

38
00:03:29,876 --> 00:03:30,643
You've had the biggest crush on
this girl for the past six months.

39
00:03:30,710 --> 00:03:31,750
You gotta talk to her now.

40
00:03:31,811 --> 00:03:35,982
Melissa? Hi.
Hey, you know, I'm...

41
00:03:36,049 --> 00:03:39,852
I'm in the middle of something right now.
Could I call you back?

42
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:41,321
Great.

43
00:03:43,456 --> 00:03:44,891

44

I know.

46

BEN: Alex plays in a Poker
Stars tournament on TV.

47
00:03:52,765 --> 00:03:56,035
JESSE: No way! Sick. WALLY: Beats
making photocopies in a law firm.

48

I've been up all night.

49

so proud of you, honey.

57
00:04:20,460 --> 00:04:21,995
MR. STILLMAN: Yes, we are.
Thank you.

58
00:04:22,061 --> 00:04:24,130
MR. STILLMAN: Magna
cum laude, not bad.

59
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:27,133

full scholarship to law school.

What's up, my man? Hey.

64
00:04:34,107 --> 00:04:35,608
How are you?

65
00:04:35,675 --> 00:04:38,111
Where are those Girls
Gone Wild chicks at?

66
00:04:38,177 --> 00:04:40,880
Open your eyes, kid.

67
00:04:40,947 --> 00:04:42,682
Hey, you didn't say
anything, did you?

68
00:04:42,749 --> 00:04:46,986
No, no, I swear, I didn't say a word...
Didn't say a word about what?

69
00:04:47,053 --> 00:04:49,389
I just... Alex?

70
00:04:49,455 --> 00:04:51,157
I kind of got into a tournament.

71
00:04:51,224 --> 00:04:52,458
Sweet!

72
00:04:54,193 --> 00:04:55,194
I got it.

73
00:04:55,261 --> 00:04:57,563
It's only for a couple of days.

74
00:04:57,630 --> 00:04:59,565
You promised this
was just a hobby.

75
00:04:59,632 --> 00:05:01,634
It won't get out of hand.

76
00:05:02,468 --> 00:05:04,103
It won't get out of hand.

77
00:05:04,170 --> 00:05:05,505
Come... Come on.

78
00:05:05,571 --> 00:05:06,749
I beat out hundreds of people.

79
00:05:06,773 --> 00:05:09,175
I stuck my neck out
to get you that job.

80

And I'll still be there.

81
00:05:11,844 --> 00:05:13,579

00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,896
So, Greg,
what have you got there?

87
00:05:29,962 --> 00:05:33,199
Well, Joe, in case any of our
players don't show up today,

88
00:05:33,266 --> 00:05:34,826
I'm ready to jump in
any time they want.

let's meet our players.

93

favorite, Karen "Razor" Jones.

Nope, no, I'm fine.

young gun in just a minute.

Do you wanna give
me a hand in here?

Guy's on third.
I'll be right in.

ANNOUNCER:
Up next is Phil Cabaratta.

102
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:14,207
The first time, he walked
and moved around there,

103
00:06:14,273 --> 00:06:17,477
and the next time, he banged
himself out a triple.

104
00:06:18,544 --> 00:06:21,214
JOE: Each player is first
dealt two down cards.

105
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:23,883
A round of betting then occurs.

106
00:06:23,950 --> 00:06:26,719
Then comes the community
cards with the flop,

107
00:06:26,786 --> 00:06:29,555
the turn and the river.

108
00:06:29,622 --> 00:06:31,262
In the end, the best
five-card combination

109
00:06:31,290 --> 00:06:34,494
wins the hand and takes the pot.

110
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,530
Let's take a closer look at
one of our newest young guns.

111
00:06:37,597 --> 00:06:39,241
I guess you could say I've
always been good with numbers.

112

GREG: Young Alex Stillman,
just 21 years old,

113
00:06:41,634 --> 00:06:43,369
born and raised in Los Angeles,

114
00:06:43,436 --> 00:06:45,538
learned to play poker
in just the last three years.

115
00:06:45,605 --> 00:06:48,574
And when this whiz kid went
off to college in the East,

116
00:06:48,641 --> 00:06:50,143
he realized that there might be

117
00:06:50,209 --> 00:06:51,689
a little bit more
to this poker thing.

118
00:06:56,082 --> 00:06:57,450
Dealer card.

119
00:06:58,284 --> 00:06:59,752
Thank you.

120
00:07:00,620 --> 00:07:01,620
KAREN: Four thousand.

121
00:07:01,654 --> 00:07:03,556
Right off the bat, huh, Karen?

122
00:07:03,623 --> 00:07:05,091
Yeah. Whee.

JOE: Alex, who came to the final
table today as our chip leader,

125
00:07:09,862 --> 00:07:13,533
has lost a lot of his stack
since the start of play.

126

128
00:07:32,618 --> 00:07:35,021

everyone out.

ALEX: Ten thousand.

130
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:51,213
This young kid
might get into trouble

131
00:07:51,237 --> 00:07:53,339
in this hand if
he's not careful.

132
00:07:53,406 --> 00:07:56,042
GREG: Oh, exactly. I mean,
if you don't look at Razor,

133
00:07:56,108 --> 00:07:57,586
if you don't see
what a strong hand she's got,

134
00:07:57,610 --> 00:07:58,687
I mean,
you think top pair's good.

135
00:07:58,711 --> 00:08:02,348
Likes his hand.
All right, I call.

136

paying more attention.

00:08:13,893 --> 00:08:16,863
All right, kid,
let's rock and roll.

143
00:08:16,929 --> 00:08:18,373
Obviously,
Razor has called him all in.

144
00:08:18,397 --> 00:08:20,600
Let's see what the river brings.

145
00:08:20,666 --> 00:08:23,536
JOE: And Alex is going to be
very disappointed here, I think.

146
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:28,007
PHIL: That's what zero
percent feels like, huh?

147
00:08:28,074 --> 00:08:31,944
Yeah. River didn't help.
You were beat on the turn.

148
00:08:32,945 --> 00:08:34,847
You played what you could.

149

See you around.
Go back to school.

150

a little bit lucky

to make it to our
final table today,

152
00:08:42,255 --> 00:08:43,332
but hopefully he'll
take something home

153
00:08:43,356 --> 00:08:45,124
from this and he'll
be back next time.

the next pay period.

for two more weeks?

almost at capacity.

00:44:50,220 --> 00:44:52,389
You guys, I came in third.

702
00:44:55,359 --> 00:45:00,297
Alex, I didn't spend the last 20
years of my life working my ass off

703
00:45:00,364 --> 00:45:02,499
so you could play
cards for a living.

704
00:45:02,566 --> 00:45:04,802
Whatever. I got
a partial scholarship.

705
00:45:04,868 --> 00:45:08,072
And who do you think
paid the other half?

706
00:45:08,472 --> 00:45:10,307
Okay, fine.

707
00:45:10,374 --> 00:45:12,910
Here! Here's the other half!

708
00:45:15,579 --> 00:45:16,880
You won that?

709
00:45:16,947 --> 00:45:18,449
$62,000.

710
00:45:18,515 --> 00:45:22,186
And in two weeks is the big one.
Top prize, $8 million!

711
00:45:23,554 --> 00:45:28,292
Alex, listen to me.
You have a job.

712
00:45:31,395 --> 00:45:34,832
Not anymore. I'm quitting.

713
00:45:34,898 --> 00:45:38,402
Oh, Alex, now... Alex.

ANNOUNCER: In Las Vegas,
get ready to watch history,

717
00:47:03,387 --> 00:47:06,690
as poker's elite battle for
the game's ultimate title.

718
00:47:06,757 --> 00:47:13,263
It's the $15 million WPT Championship,
here on the World Poker Tour.

719
00:47:13,330 --> 00:47:16,233
Hi, everyone. Welcome to the
biggest week of the poker year,

720
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:18,402
the WPT World Championship.

721
00:47:18,468 --> 00:47:20,604
I'm Mike Sexton
along with Vince Van Patten,

722
00:47:20,671 --> 00:47:23,941
and Vince, this is going to
be an amazing week of poker.

723
00:47:24,007 --> 00:47:26,977
VINCE: Oh, Mike, we got five
exciting days of poker ahead of us.

724
00:47:27,044 --> 00:47:29,479
Each player has to
put up $25,000 each,

725
00:47:29,546 --> 00:47:32,516
and the winner is gonna
take home over $8 million.

726
00:47:32,583 --> 00:47:34,284
And what is really
exciting about this

727
00:47:34,351 --> 00:47:35,695
is that everyone's
gonna play this event.

728
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,488
All the superstars in the
game are playing this match.

729
00:47:38,555 --> 00:47:40,724
Oh, you're right, Vince,
all the greats are here.

730
00:47:40,791 --> 00:47:46,129
Razor Jones, Doyle Brunson, Gus
Hansen, Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu,

731
00:47:46,196 --> 00:47:49,466
Mike "Double Diamond" Jackson,
Tex Button,

732
00:47:49,533 --> 00:47:51,468
and a rookie who's
been making big noises

733
00:47:51,535 --> 00:47:53,503
since he played
in his first WPT event

734
00:47:53,570 --> 00:47:55,505
earlier this season,
Alex Stillman.

735
00:47:55,572 --> 00:47:56,740
Well, Alex is a great player.

736
00:47:56,807 --> 00:47:57,908
He is a young rookie.

737
00:47:57,975 --> 00:47:59,543
They're all talking about him.

738
00:47:59,610 --> 00:48:00,853
You know, he finished
10th in a tournament

739
00:48:00,877 --> 00:48:03,213
in New Orleans
a couple of weeks ago.

740
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,349
So everyone's buzzing about him.

741
00:48:05,415 --> 00:48:07,951
But there is another great
story and that is because

742
00:48:08,018 --> 00:48:09,586
there's a fantastic
player that is back.

743
00:48:09,653 --> 00:48:11,555
A big comeback for the
phenomenal Tommy Vinson.

744
00:48:11,622 --> 00:48:14,925
Well, what an amazing
moment this must be.

745
00:48:14,992 --> 00:48:18,295
Tommy supposedly taught one of our
younger entries, Alex Stillman,

746
00:48:18,362 --> 00:48:20,530
a thing or two about the game.

747
00:48:20,597 --> 00:48:23,667
Now, Tommy hasn't played a hand
of poker in over 20 years.

748
00:48:23,734 --> 00:48:26,236
MIKE: Well, I can tell you
that's a long time to be away

749
00:48:26,303 --> 00:48:28,538
from poker at this level, Vin.

750
00:48:28,605 --> 00:48:30,250
VINCE: Well, I'll tell you
something, with Doyle and with Tommy

751
00:48:30,274 --> 00:48:32,643
there's a lot of history
to this tournament,

752
00:48:32,709 --> 00:48:33,577

00:57:54,070 --> 00:57:55,972
MIKE: Here comes the flop.

877
00:57:56,039 --> 00:57:57,319
ANTONIO:
Keep them small, dealer.

878
00:57:58,775 --> 00:57:59,776
Small.

879
00:58:00,877 --> 00:58:03,980
No ace, no king, please.
One time.

880
00:58:04,047 --> 00:58:07,083
MIKE: Oh, he gets it, Vince! He's
caught the ace on the river!

881
00:58:13,756 --> 00:58:15,158
Nice hand, Tommy.

882
00:58:16,125 --> 00:58:19,195
Good luck, guys.
Take care of my chips.

883
00:58:19,996 --> 00:58:22,398
I'll do my best.

884
00:58:22,465 --> 00:58:25,869
VINCE: Just like that, the Magician
Antonio has disappeared. Abracadabra.

885
00:58:25,935 --> 00:58:27,503
MIKE: That's it,
we are down to six.

886
00:58:27,570 --> 00:58:29,672
We'll see you tomorrow
at the final table.

887
00:58:38,114 --> 00:58:39,983
Pretty amazing, huh?

888
00:58:41,451 --> 00:58:43,286
God, look, guys. Alex!

889
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:45,388
Hey.

890
00:58:45,455 --> 00:58:47,090
Oh, my God, what's up?

891
00:58:47,156 --> 00:58:48,167
What are you guys doing here?

892
00:58:48,191 --> 00:58:49,759
Ben told us what was going on.

893
00:58:49,826 --> 00:58:50,960
Oh, this is great.

894
00:58:51,027 --> 00:58:52,028
We wanted to come.

895
00:58:52,095 --> 00:58:53,396
ALEX: Let's get you guys a room.

896
00:58:53,463 --> 00:58:55,031
I'll check us in.

897
00:58:55,098 --> 00:58:56,609
All right, just give me two seconds, okay?
I just gotta do this thing.

898
00:58:56,633 --> 00:58:59,836
But tell them you're my parents.
They'll hook you up.

899
00:59:01,237 --> 00:59:03,239
You want some more?

900
00:59:03,306 --> 00:59:04,807
No.

901
00:59:06,142 --> 00:59:08,278
MAITRE D':
Excuse me, Mr. Vinson.

902
00:59:08,344 --> 00:59:10,346
There's a phone call for you
up at the front.

903
00:59:10,413 --> 00:59:11,614
All right.

904
00:59:28,331 --> 00:59:29,832
Hello?

905
00:59:29,899 --> 00:59:32,019
Looks like you're doing pretty
good in the tournament.

906
00:59:33,269 --> 00:59:35,838
Looks like I could
say the same for you.

907
00:59:38,074 --> 00:59:41,311
Final table.
Life's full of surprises.

908
00:59:41,911 --> 00:59:43,246
Yeah, it is.

909
00:59:45,315 --> 00:59:47,275
Hey, I just wanted to wish
you good luck tomorrow.

910
00:59:50,019 --> 00:59:52,422
Good luck to you, too, pal.

911
00:59:52,488 --> 00:59:55,158
Second place finish wouldn't
be bad for a guy your age.

912
00:59:56,859 --> 00:59:59,762
It wouldn't be bad
for a guy your age, either.

913
00:59:59,829 --> 01:00:03,132
Look, my wife's here...

914
01:00:03,199 --> 01:00:05,168
Yeah, yeah, I just
want to say one thing.

915
01:00:08,171 --> 01:00:09,305
Yeah?

916
01:00:09,372 --> 01:00:10,840
I know your tell.

917
01:00:14,544 --> 01:00:16,112
I'll see you tomorrow.

918
01:00:22,285 --> 01:00:24,220
MIKE: Hi, everyone.
We are coming to you

919
01:00:24,287 --> 01:00:26,155
live from Bellagio in Las Vegas,

920
01:00:26,222 --> 01:00:28,257
where the largest
prize pool in the history

921
01:00:28,324 --> 01:00:30,426
of the World Poker
Tour will be given out.

922
01:00:30,493 --> 01:00:33,129
We had a record number of players
enter this year's event,

923
01:00:33,196 --> 01:00:35,064
but only six still have dreams

924
01:00:35,131 --> 01:00:36,899
of capturing this coveted title

925
01:00:36,966 --> 01:00:38,501
and taking home over $8 million.

926
01:00:38,568 --> 01:00:40,012
VINCE: Well, Mike,
this is gonna be great.

927
01:00:40,036 --> 01:00:42,972
Big money here this week,
and let me tell you something.

928
01:00:43,039 --> 01:00:46,476
All the big names in the game were
here, all the superstar players,

929
01:00:46,542 --> 01:00:48,745
but they are gone.
They are dead men walking.

930
01:00:48,811 --> 01:00:51,748
They are rail birds, 'cause
we are down to our final six.

931
01:00:51,814 --> 01:00:54,183
MIKE: What a final table
line-up we've got for you.

932
01:00:54,250 --> 01:00:56,330
VINCE: You know what? There
is a cowboy in the house.

933
01:00:56,386 --> 01:00:58,021
That is right.
Yee-haw! Saddle up.

934
01:00:58,087 --> 01:01:01,491
Get the tumble weed out of your
hair, 'cause Tex Button is here.

935
01:01:01,557 --> 01:01:04,060
And next is the only lady
at this final table.

936
01:01:04,127 --> 01:01:06,329
She's a former WPT
Ladies' Champion.

937
01:01:06,396 --> 01:01:09,399
From Montreal, Canada,
Isabelle "No Mercy" Mercier.

938
01:01:09,465 --> 01:01:11,334
VINCE: That's right. Oui. Oui.

939
01:01:11,401 --> 01:01:13,870
Moving over to the youngest
player at the table.

940
01:01:13,936 --> 01:01:16,205
That's right,
he's only 21 years old.

941
01:01:16,272 --> 01:01:19,175
I mean, he looks like he just
ran in from a Barney concert.

942
01:01:19,242 --> 01:01:22,311
He is the very talented and
rising star, Alex Stillman.

943
01:01:22,378 --> 01:01:25,181
And next up is a guy who's
won many titles in his day,

944
01:01:25,248 --> 01:01:28,351
but none for any amount
anything like this tonight.

945
01:01:28,418 --> 01:01:30,319
I'm talking about
the man, the myth,

946
01:01:30,386 --> 01:01:32,422
the "Double Diamond,"
Mike Jackson.

947
01:01:35,291 --> 01:01:37,393
Next is a top
professional player

948
01:01:37,460 --> 01:01:39,262
who's made many
final tables in his day.

949
01:01:39,328 --> 01:01:42,398
From Los Angeles, California,
Scott "Laser" Lazar.

950
01:01:42,465 --> 01:01:44,100
VINCE: What a player he is.

951
01:01:44,167 --> 01:01:45,868
Okay, now,
rounding out the field.

952
01:01:45,935 --> 01:01:47,937
A very captivating story.

953
01:01:48,004 --> 01:01:50,206
We have an old-school
poker player who...

954
01:01:50,273 --> 01:01:52,975
First time ever on the World
Poker Tour final table.

955
01:01:53,042 --> 01:01:56,345
In fact, this man has not picked
up a card in over 20 years.

956
01:01:56,412 --> 01:01:59,148
He's very talented.
Tommy Vinson.

957
01:01:59,215 --> 01:02:00,526
MIKE: Well, we've
got it all tonight.

958
01:02:00,550 --> 01:02:04,120
Men versus women,
old-school versus new-school.

959
01:02:04,187 --> 01:02:05,455
This is gonna be good, Vince.

960
01:02:05,521 --> 01:02:06,899
VINCE: It's gonna be great,
the cards are ready to fly.

961
01:02:06,923 --> 01:02:10,293
Millionaires in the midst.
Let's go down to the felt.

962
01:02:10,359 --> 01:02:11,994
MIKE: Coming in
to today's final,

963
01:02:12,061 --> 01:02:15,264
Tex Button is our chip leader
with about 12 million in chips.

964
01:02:15,331 --> 01:02:17,934
And Vince, in second place
is the youngster,

965
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:19,511
the new kid on the block,
Alex Stillman.

966
01:02:19,535 --> 01:02:21,437
He's got about
10 million in chips.

967
01:02:21,504 --> 01:02:24,107
And in third place,
Mike "Double Diamond" Jackson

968
01:02:24,173 --> 01:02:25,341
with about 9.3 million.

969
01:02:30,346 --> 01:02:31,386
TEX: Six hundred thousand.

970
01:02:40,356 --> 01:02:41,357
DIAMOND: I'm out.

971
01:02:55,004 --> 01:02:56,005
Call.

972
01:03:02,578 --> 01:03:03,846
Check.

973
01:03:06,649 --> 01:03:08,451
TEX: Another 600,000.

974
01:03:08,518 --> 01:03:10,286
VINCE: Tex, with
just the pair of nines,

975
01:03:10,353 --> 01:03:12,355
he's coming out with
another bet, 600,000.

976
01:03:13,189 --> 01:03:14,290
Call.

977
01:03:17,393 --> 01:03:19,061
MIKE: Tommy makes
a flush draw now...

978
01:03:19,128 --> 01:03:20,229
Check.

979
01:03:21,464 --> 01:03:22,465
Check.

980
01:03:26,435 --> 01:03:29,472
MIKE: Tommy's made a flush, but
Tex has made three of a kind.

981
01:03:38,114 --> 01:03:40,983
VINCE: Oh, wow, this could be a
complete debacle here for Tex.

982
01:03:41,551 --> 01:03:42,551
Two million.

983
01:03:44,554 --> 01:03:46,355
All right, I call.

984
01:03:46,422 --> 01:03:48,257
MIKE: And Tex has
called him, Vince.

985
01:03:48,324 --> 01:03:49,892
VINCE: Oh, oh.
What a train wreck.

986
01:03:50,259 --> 01:03:51,394
Flush.

987
01:03:54,263 --> 01:03:56,899
Look at Tex. He looks like the
chuck wagon just ran over him.

988
01:04:00,136 --> 01:04:01,470
Nice hand, Tommy.

989
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:08,110
MIKE: Tommy Vinson takes down a
monster pot, well over five million.

Yes!

1006
01:04:55,358 --> 01:04:56,638
MIKE:
There's our first casualty.

1007
01:04:56,692 --> 01:04:58,728
Tex Button, who came
to this final table

1008
01:04:58,794 --> 01:05:01,430
as our chip leader,
out in sixth place.

1009
01:05:09,505 --> 01:05:11,774
MIKE: But Tommy Vinson
has flopped three fours.

1010
01:05:11,841 --> 01:05:13,976
VINCE: Oh, man.
MIKE: The dream flop.

1011
01:05:17,647 --> 01:05:20,249
VINCE: Oh, look at this,
Isabelle needed to spike a ten.

1012
01:05:20,316 --> 01:05:22,218
She did not get it. She is gone.

1013
01:05:22,285 --> 01:05:23,886
MIKE: Out in fifth place.

1014
01:05:23,953 --> 01:05:26,789
But she's gonna take home 585,000
for her efforts this week.

1015
01:05:26,856 --> 01:05:30,426
Now, Tommy's a poker legend, and to
see him come back after 20 years

1016
01:05:30,493 --> 01:05:33,453
and play in his first tournament and
make the final table, it's phenomenal.

1017
01:05:33,496 --> 01:05:34,856
And you know,
he's playing so well,

1018
01:05:34,897 --> 01:05:36,842
I think he's gonna have a good
chance to take this down.

1019
01:05:36,866 --> 01:05:39,946
All right. Well, let's cross our fingers
for Tommy and get back to the action.

MIKE: So, Mike "Double Diamond"
Jackson, out in fourth place tonight,

1023
01:05:54,850 --> 01:05:58,321

$878,000 with him.

MIKE: Well, Vince, it is crunch
time, and it's come down to this.

1032
01:07:12,495 --> 01:07:15,564
The third-place finisher
will take home $2.2 million.

1033
01:07:15,631 --> 01:07:19,235
The runner-up tonight will take
home a measly $4.1 million.

1034
01:07:19,301 --> 01:07:23,439
And our champion tonight will
capture a WPT championship title,

1035

as well as take home
just over $8 million.

Scott looks at his cards.

a pair of queens in the hole.

1040
01:07:39,121 --> 01:07:42,591
both have the identical hand, jack, king.
This should be good.

01:07:50,933 --> 01:07:52,201

Oh, look at this, Vince!
A nine, ten, queen!

1045
01:08:05,347 --> 01:08:06,849
Alex and Tommy
have flopped the nuts,

1046
01:08:06,916 --> 01:08:09,852
a king-high straight, but
"Laser" Lazar has a top set!

1047
01:08:09,919 --> 01:08:11,363
Check. MIKE: We're gonna
see fireworks here.

1048
01:08:11,387 --> 01:08:14,123
VINCE: Potential disaster
for either one of these guys.

1049
01:08:16,659 --> 01:08:19,428
Three million. VINCE: Look at this.
Lazar is gonna bet it.

1050
01:08:19,495 --> 01:08:22,765
A significant bet. Let's see
how Alex is gonna play this.

1051
01:08:33,476 --> 01:08:35,353
I'm all in. MIKE: Well,
he's going all in, Vince.

1052
01:08:35,377 --> 01:08:36,946
He's come over the top.

1053
01:08:37,012 --> 01:08:40,149
All in. VINCE: There goes Tommy.
He's gone all in as well.

1054
01:08:52,328 --> 01:08:53,662
I call.

1055
01:08:53,729 --> 01:08:56,165
VINCE: It's a showdown. They're
gonna turn up the cards.

1056
01:08:57,533 --> 01:09:00,636
MIKE: And incredibly, Alex and
Tommy are gonna split this pot,

1057
01:09:00,703 --> 01:09:02,671
unless Lazar pairs
the board on the river.

1058
01:09:02,738 --> 01:09:04,306
VINCE: Otherwise,
he will be out.

1059
01:09:04,373 --> 01:09:06,275
He will be our
third-place finisher.

1060
01:09:06,342 --> 01:09:07,743
Here comes the turn card.

1061
01:09:07,810 --> 01:09:10,279
MIKE: Well, the five of
clubs comes on the turn.

1062
01:09:10,346 --> 01:09:12,057
VINCE: It's irrelevant.
MIKE: No help to anybody.

1063
01:09:12,081 --> 01:09:13,816
VINCE: No.
MIKE: Well, it's a three!

1064
01:09:13,883 --> 01:09:15,651
So that's gonna do
it for Scotty Lazar.

1065
01:09:15,718 --> 01:09:17,319
He is out in third place.

1066
01:09:17,386 --> 01:09:20,523
And incredibly, Vince, the
youngster and the elder statesman

1067
01:09:20,589 --> 01:09:23,559
are gonna play heads-up for this
title and the eight million bucks.

1068
01:09:23,626 --> 01:09:26,662
VINCE: This is truly amazing. But
what a great effort by Scotty Lazar.

1069
01:09:26,729 --> 01:09:28,731
Hit the set, but he is out.

1070
01:09:28,797 --> 01:09:31,834
For his efforts, he's gonna
pick up $2.2 million.

1071
01:09:38,774 --> 01:09:40,709
As is a tradition on
the World Poker Tour,

1072
01:09:40,776 --> 01:09:42,211
when we get down
to heads-up play,

1073
01:09:42,278 --> 01:09:44,813
we bring the trophy and the
cash out to the table.

1074
01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,716
I'll tell you something, this
is going to be a great story.

1075
01:09:47,783 --> 01:09:49,818
I mean, we have the youngest
player at the table,

1076
01:09:49,885 --> 01:09:52,755
21 years old, Alex Stillman.

1077
01:09:52,821 --> 01:09:54,690
What's amazing about this,
he was mentored

1078
01:09:54,757 --> 01:09:57,026
by the old-school player,
Tommy Vinson.

1079
01:09:57,092 --> 01:09:58,637
And now, they are gonna
go up against each other

1080
01:09:58,661 --> 01:10:01,830
and battle each other for
the WPT World Championship.

1081
01:10:01,897 --> 01:10:04,700
MIKE: Absolutely incredible, Vince.
The teacher versus the pupil.

1082
01:10:04,767 --> 01:10:07,836
Who's gonna take down the title
and the eight million bucks?

1083
01:10:08,804 --> 01:10:10,973
Well, the price of
poker is going up now.

1084
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,542
We're now playing
with a $50,000 ante.

1085
01:10:13,609 --> 01:10:16,345
Blinds are at
$250,000 and $500,000.

1086
01:10:16,412 --> 01:10:19,582
VINCE: Inflation at Bellagio.
Buckle up, ladies and gentlemen.

1087
01:10:37,633 --> 01:10:39,235
Raise.

1088
01:10:39,301 --> 01:10:40,845
MIKE: So here we go. Look at this, Vince.
On hand number one,

1089
01:10:40,869 --> 01:10:44,039
Alex has the worst starting hand possible.
Two million.

1090
01:10:44,106 --> 01:10:46,609
MIKE: Yet he's raising the pot,
trying to steal the first hand.

1091
01:10:46,675 --> 01:10:48,310
VINCE: This is beautiful.

1092
01:10:48,377 --> 01:10:51,914
He's gonna try to pull off a
Winona with absolute zip and pip.

1093
01:10:51,981 --> 01:10:54,059
Now, look at Tommy's cards. He's
got nothing. He's got a junk hand.

1094
01:10:54,083 --> 01:10:55,594
You gotta think
he's gonna fold here, Mike.

1095
01:10:55,618 --> 01:10:57,186
Fold.

1096
01:10:57,253 --> 01:10:58,863
MIKE: Well, you're right, Vince.
In fact, Tommy does fold.

1097
01:10:58,887 --> 01:11:02,858
So Alex takes down pot number
one with a little thievery.

1098
01:11:34,657 --> 01:11:35,924
Raise to two million.

1099
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:40,029
VINCE: Oh, look at this.
That's a $2 million bet

1100
01:11:40,095 --> 01:11:43,866
and the kid is betting with a
junk hand, just six, four.

1101
01:11:43,932 --> 01:11:46,402
He must feel like
Tommy has a weak hand.

1102
01:11:49,638 --> 01:11:50,915
MIKE: Vince,
I think you're right.

1103
01:11:50,939 --> 01:11:53,142
It looks like Alex has
got him all figured out.

1104
01:11:53,208 --> 01:11:55,878
And unless Tommy changes
things around quickly,

1105
01:11:55,944 --> 01:11:57,780
his championship hopes
could dwindle, Vince.

1106
01:11:57,846 --> 01:11:58,947
VINCE: Yeah, you're right.

1107
01:12:29,211 --> 01:12:30,879
One million.

1108
01:12:30,946 --> 01:12:32,681
MIKE: Look at this, Vince.
VINCE: No. No!

1109
01:12:32,748 --> 01:12:35,851
MIKE: Tommy has bet a million dollars
without looking at his cards.

1110
01:12:35,918 --> 01:12:37,486
I've never seen
anything like this!

1111
01:12:37,553 --> 01:12:38,596
VINCE: (LAUGHING) This is a
first on the World Poker Tour.

1112
01:12:38,620 --> 01:12:40,856
I mean, he's
pushing it in blind!

1113
01:12:40,923 --> 01:12:42,043
Is it gonna work? MIKE: Wow!

1114
01:12:56,772 --> 01:12:57,773
Call.

1115
01:13:02,578 --> 01:13:03,858
MIKE: Well, here comes the flop.

1116
01:13:11,620 --> 01:13:12,654
Check.

1117
01:13:16,759 --> 01:13:17,760
All in.

1118
01:13:17,826 --> 01:13:19,394
(VINCE LAUGHING)

1119
01:13:19,461 --> 01:13:21,206
MIKE: Vince, can you believe this?
$8 million on the line,

1120
01:13:21,230 --> 01:13:23,870
and Tommy Vinson has gone all in
without even looking at his cards.

1121
01:13:25,934 --> 01:13:27,803
Fold.

1122
01:13:27,870 --> 01:13:29,581
VINCE: Look at this, he's gonna lay his
hand down. He's laying the hand down.

1123
01:13:29,605 --> 01:13:33,776
MIKE: Well, Alex does fold. So
the play works for Tommy Vinson.

1124
01:14:00,969 --> 01:14:03,038
You gotta be kidding me.

1125
01:14:05,107 --> 01:14:06,108
(SIGHING)

1126
01:14:16,118 --> 01:14:17,553
Make it a million.

1127
01:14:24,193 --> 01:14:25,327
Call.

1128
01:14:25,394 --> 01:14:27,996
MIKE: Here we go again.
Blind man bluff.

1129
01:14:37,072 --> 01:14:38,072
Check.

1130
01:14:42,377 --> 01:14:43,912
Make it another million.

1131
01:14:47,716 --> 01:14:48,817
Call.

1132
01:15:00,295 --> 01:15:01,597
All in.

1133
01:15:16,912 --> 01:15:18,847
VINCE: Amazing,
absolutely amazing.

1134
01:15:18,914 --> 01:15:20,482
MIKE: Well,
the question is, Vince,

1135
01:15:20,549 --> 01:15:23,819
how long can they continue
playing power poker in the dark?

1136
01:15:23,886 --> 01:15:26,221
You can only slide so far
on barbed wire, you know.

1137
01:15:42,437 --> 01:15:45,040
VINCE: All right, now he's finally
gonna look at his cards there.

1138
01:15:45,107 --> 01:15:46,351
MIKE: Yeah, Vince, look at this.

1139
01:15:46,375 --> 01:15:47,952
He's peeked at his hand,
he's got two jacks.

1140
01:15:47,976 --> 01:15:51,780
Let's see what he's gonna do now.
Is he gonna push harder?

1141
01:16:00,088 --> 01:16:01,323
TOMMY: Check.

1142
01:16:01,390 --> 01:16:03,225
2.5 million.

1143
01:16:03,292 --> 01:16:05,193
MIKE: You know, Vince,
I couldn't quite see

1144
01:16:05,260 --> 01:16:07,062
Alex's cards when
he bet the 2.5 million.

1145
01:16:07,129 --> 01:16:08,130
VINCE: I know.

1146
01:16:18,273 --> 01:16:19,450
Tommy has gotta love his hand.

1147
01:16:19,474 --> 01:16:21,944
Now, will he get aggressive
and go over the top?

1148
01:16:22,010 --> 01:16:23,111
MIKE: Well, we shall see.

1149
01:16:33,755 --> 01:16:35,190
Call. MIKE: And look at this.

1150
01:16:35,257 --> 01:16:38,160
He's just calling, Vince.
Slow playing him.

1151
01:16:45,267 --> 01:16:47,227
VINCE: Okay, we're gonna see the flop.
Here it is.

1152
01:16:49,972 --> 01:16:51,349
That's a dangerous
flop right there.

1153
01:16:51,373 --> 01:16:53,809
Of course, we don't know
what Alex has at this point.

1154
01:16:56,178 --> 01:16:57,179
Check.

1155
01:16:59,948 --> 01:17:00,983
Check.

1156
01:17:03,285 --> 01:17:04,820
VINCE: Okay,
here comes the turn card.

1157
01:17:14,963 --> 01:17:16,898
Check.

1158
01:17:16,965 --> 01:17:19,234
VINCE: Look at the
stare-down between them.

1159
01:17:19,301 --> 01:17:21,203
Check. MIKE: Alex checks again.

1160
01:17:21,269 --> 01:17:23,872
VINCE: Yes, he does.
Okay, down to the river, Mike.

1161
01:17:25,340 --> 01:17:29,244
MIKE: So there's two pair on the
board, fours and threes, and an ace.

1162
01:17:29,311 --> 01:17:32,180
VINCE: Very interesting,
but danger everywhere.

1163
01:17:36,385 --> 01:17:37,753
All in.

1164
01:17:37,819 --> 01:17:40,389
VINCE: This is it. Tommy
Vinson has gone all in.

1165
01:17:40,455 --> 01:17:43,258
Now, if Alex should
call and he's wrong,

1166
01:17:43,325 --> 01:17:45,327
Tommy Vinson would
become our new champion.

1167
01:18:12,888 --> 01:18:14,322
Call. MIKE: And he's called!

1168
01:18:16,258 --> 01:18:18,293
So Alex is gonna
need a three, a four,

1169
01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:22,064
a pair of queens, a pair of
kings, or an ace to win this pot.

1170
01:18:26,902 --> 01:18:28,170
Tommy shows his jacks.

1171
01:18:30,472 --> 01:18:31,873
Nice hand, Tommy.

1172
01:18:33,341 --> 01:18:34,443
Well, that's it. Yeah.

1173
01:18:34,509 --> 01:18:36,211
Tommy Vinson,
after a 20-year hiatus,

1174
01:18:36,278 --> 01:18:41,316
has come back and captured the World
Poker Tour Championship title,

1175
01:18:41,383 --> 01:18:43,085
as well as $8.2 million.

1176
01:18:43,151 --> 01:18:47,289
Vince, what a story this is. The
teacher takes the pupil to school.

1177
01:18:47,355 --> 01:18:48,355
(VINCE LAUGHING)

1178
01:18:55,230 --> 01:18:59,234
That is gonna do it. Let's go down
and talk to our new champion.

1179
01:19:01,369 --> 01:19:05,540
Dude. Buddy, you kicked ass out there.
Congratulations.

1180
01:19:05,607 --> 01:19:07,275
Thanks. You did great.

1181
01:19:08,577 --> 01:19:10,846
Second place finish
isn't that bad, right?

1182
01:19:10,912 --> 01:19:12,914
Are you kidding me? $4 million.

1183
01:19:12,981 --> 01:19:14,082
I know. MR. STILLMAN: Yeah.

1184
01:19:14,149 --> 01:19:15,629
That should easily
pay for three years

1185
01:19:15,684 --> 01:19:18,520
of law school,
if you decide to go.

1186
01:19:18,587 --> 01:19:20,322
Good job.

1187
01:19:20,388 --> 01:19:21,388
Thank you.

1188
01:19:25,460 --> 01:19:30,065
And here's to the new WPT
World Champion, Tommy Vinson!

1189
01:19:34,402 --> 01:19:37,305
I'm Mike Sexton saying thanks for
watching, and until next season,

1190
01:19:37,372 --> 01:19:39,574
may all your cards be live
and your pots be monster!

1191
01:19:41,409 --> 01:19:43,011
TOMMY: Yeah? Gorgeous.

1192
01:19:43,078 --> 01:19:45,180
ALEX: So, Dad, after,
you can go fish

1193
01:19:45,247 --> 01:19:47,282
and then have
a couple of martinis.

1194
01:19:48,183 --> 01:19:50,819
Hey, just give me
one second. Okay?

1195
01:19:52,287 --> 01:19:54,256
Give me a minute, will you?
Yeah.

1196
01:19:57,425 --> 01:19:58,894
Great playing.

1197
01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:00,462
Me? Come on, what about you?

1198
01:20:02,664 --> 01:20:04,866
I got lucky with the cards.

1199
01:20:05,433 --> 01:20:08,503
Well, I guess
I should thank you.

1200
01:20:09,671 --> 01:20:12,240
For what? You're a natural.

1201
01:20:12,307 --> 01:20:14,676
No, not about the cards.

1202
01:20:14,743 --> 01:20:17,045
You see me with
that girl in there?

1203
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:19,281
Oh.

1204
01:20:27,455 --> 01:20:29,024
I'm sorry you didn't win.

1205
01:20:29,658 --> 01:20:31,960
I will, someday.

1206
01:20:33,528 --> 01:20:35,197
Damn right, you will.

1207
01:20:40,669 --> 01:20:42,971
Well, gotta go.

1208
01:20:43,038 --> 01:20:46,608
Hey, so I'm gonna see you
at Foxwood's next month?

1209
01:20:46,675 --> 01:20:50,645
Not a chance. Going to Hawaii.
First-class.

1210
01:20:50,712 --> 01:20:52,080
(CHUCKLING)

1211
01:20:52,147 --> 01:20:54,983
Oh, man, this is really it for you?
You're done?

1212
01:20:55,050 --> 01:20:56,985
I might come out
of retirement...

1213
01:20:57,052 --> 01:20:58,887
25, 30 years.

1214
01:21:11,366 --> 01:21:15,036
You were holding in your
hand a pair, right?

1215
01:21:15,103 --> 01:21:17,672
Like nines? Tens?

1216
01:21:19,374 --> 01:21:21,176
Tens.

1217
01:21:21,676 --> 01:21:24,212
Tens. I knew it.

1218
01:21:28,183 --> 01:21:29,951
All right, see you, Tommy.

1219
01:21:39,261 --> 01:21:41,062
