Gambling-based movieslend themselves to intense suspense and drama.
This earns the duo large sums of money, before they are kicked out of the casino.
Other times, key poker scenes come from gambling-based movies themselves.
Now, a 2008 gambling movie has had its accuracy reviewed by a poker expert.
In an interview withInsider, poker professional Darren Elias evaluates21for its accuracy.
This is actually not poker.
which is a blackjack method, not poker.
So we see the player here keeping the count in blackjack.
Blackjack is just trying to get 21 without going over.
Similar to poker, I would say, the math required for counting cards is not difficult.
It’s just addition and subtraction.
The difficult part becomes the execution.
Despite not being poker, this is a 9 out of 10, I would say.
This is a very realistic card counting, blackjack casino scene.
Still, it is impressive for the film to be so accurate given its true story roots.
