    Storyline

    Edit
    Molly Bloom, a beautiful young Olympic-class skier, ran the world's most exclusive high-stakes poker game for a decade before being arrested in the middle of the night by 17 FBI agents wielding automatic weapons. Her players included Hollywood royalty, sports stars, business titans, and finally, unbeknownst to her, the Russian mob. Her only ally was her criminal defense lawyer Charlie Jaffey, who learned that there was much more to Molly than the tabloids led us to believe. —STX Entertainment

    • Trivia
      It's widely believed that "Player X" is based on Tobey Maguire.
    • Goofs
      The house can't decide to take a rake (cut of the pot) in the middle of a poker hand. The players would revolt. A rake must be established with some advance notice. It's usually in force before any play begins.
    • Quotes

      Molly Bloom: To whoever answered that the worst thing that can happen in sports is getting 4th place in the Olympics: Seriously? Fuck you.

    A phenomenal Jessica Chastain
    A fast, excellently written and well-cast film. Jessica Chastain plays outstandingly well as both a fragile beginner, a brilliant winner as well as a strong woman. I would advise everyone to take a look at this strip.
