Rounders instead

You are the icon of movie renting in the US, Blockbuster. You carry new releases, movies released in the past several years, as well as classic films. You have made the business decision to NOT carry the American classic film that won academy awards, Rocky.
Yo, Adrian, get it together.

After the Blockbuster debacle, i decided to watch Rounders last night instead, a tale of a young poker player and his degenerate friend who wrecks everything he touches. In the end Mikey takes a shot at playing the best and most dangerous poker player in NYC, Teddy KGB. He risks everything he's got in the match......and wins ("Pay dat mahn hes monney!").

You have to be willing to risk death (or at least losing all your chips! haha) to live. I know how to play aggressively -- tournament poker calls for controlled and well timed aggression. Let's see how well i can implement that credo with the number of chips i'm starting with today!
