Where do they find money to make films such as this?

Warning: Spoilers
So this is supposed to be a movie about a girl whose father is a great poker player who ends up owing tons of cash to the mob because he sucks at cards. He dies to collect insurance money and to stiff the mob. OK wateva! The girl grows up and goes to Medical School and her friends decide she should enter a $5million poker tournament to pay off their student debts. Of course they do not take time to learn medicine, they instead party and hang out in casinos. OK wateva! This girl when she is not gambling discovers that her resident doctors/surgeons don't make very much money so they have to resort to extorting money from poor, illegal immigrants. OK wateva! So now this girl is playing a poker tournament for $5 million when she freaks out because Colonel Sanders sits down at her table. Oh wait, its her dad who faked his death and now returns to a televised poker tournament his daughter has entered. Let me guess that the insurance company personnel that were involved in her fathers death aren't watching this tournament even though they would probably be interested because they would be curious how that little girl's life turned out after losing her daddy. Lets also assume the mob boss isn't watching and salivating over any money the girl might win to pay off her fathers debt. Lets assume that neither recognize her dad because he now looks like Colonel Sanders. OK wateva! Now the evil Doctor who is recognized as a poker great sits down at her table to play poker. Why? because he is so broke he needs to play poker to make ends meet. Why? because doctors in the US don't make as much money as the illegal immigrants he has to extort money from. OK wateva! Now....I could go on but I don't have the energy. OK? wateva
