21 (2008. Croupier. All Critics (78) | Top Critics (19) | Fresh (53) | Rotten (1) | DVD (11) Croupier is taut, tense and enthralling, as smart and surprising as its protagonist. May 10, 2001 Gambling and gamblers are a movie staple, but Croupier comes at the sport and its population from a fresh and, finally, rewardingly wide perspective. It's amazing the level of suspense that Hodges builds as Jack/Jake intermingles with other people. The choice of Clive Owen as the star is a good one. He's got the same sort of physical reserve as Sean Connery in the Bond pictures. Clive Owen's breakthrough role For refusing to lie down and let his film die and for returning some much needed cred to British cinema, Hodges deserves another roll of the dice. One of the very best movies of this beloved and sleazy genre. ...a model of what might be accomplished by a capable director working on a small budget - namely one of the best films of the year.

Sabacc, or jhabacc, was a popular card game that was often played for high stakes. When played professionally, the game was overseen by a dealer, either organic, as in Coruscant's Outlander Club, where four-armed Kiughfid dealers passed out the cards and took up money for the house, or mechanical, as in other locales, where Automated sabacc dealer droids oversaw proceedings. The Ryn claimed to have invented the sabacc deck and cards as a means of fortune telling.

February 17th, 2013 by Paul Strauss Game of Thrones is one of my favorite shows on TV in years, but I’ve been trying to find ways to pass the time while waiting for the return of the show on March 31. I’m a gambler too, so I think a few hands of poker could be a good time-killer until the return of the Starks, Lannisters, Targaryens, Baratheons, and all of the other denizens of Westeros in about a month and a half.

These hand-illustrated Game of Thrones playing cards were designed by artist Paul Nojima after getting the idea from a concept design he saw from artist Jim Tuckwell. While Tuckwell had only designed a handful of cards, while Nojima has actually produced an entire deck of cards. The deck is printed on high quality 310gsm card stock, and includes illustrations of all of your favorite (and most hated) characters on the face cards, and the Aces have been illustrated with sigils from four houses.

Pkr films. Comedy. Horror. In Time. Plot[edit] In 2169, people are born genetically engineered with a digital clock, bearing 1 year of time, on their forearm. When they turn 25, they stop aging, but their clock begins counting down; when it reaches zero, that person "times out" and dies instantly. Time on these clocks is the universal currency; by touching arms, one person can transfer it to another, or to/from a separate clock (a "time capsule").

The country is divided into "time zones" based on the wealth of its population. There are at least 19 time zones, the movie focuses on 2: Dayton, which is poor, and New Greenwich, the wealthiest zone. In Dayton, residents are constantly living minute to minute, doing whatever is necessary to live another day, and in New Greenwich the inhabitants barely, if ever, have to worry about their clocks running out.
