<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #dfecf7">At the end, where Matt Damon figures out how KGB plays. Is there really something that he's doing that Matt Damon caught on to with the Oreos or whatever, or do they just pretend that KGB does something and that Matt Damon figures it out to make the movie the way it is?</FONT>

I really liked this movie a lot, but how lame was that? I mean, he's this great poker player who plays against other great poker players, and no one has figured out this Oreo $hit? Come on. . .

I think he's asking "what about" the Oreos? He's using Oreos the entire time, but only at the end does he figure out what it is about them. I have no clue.

Seems that way.

Basically if Teddy had a good hand and was planning to make a big bet he would split AND eat the Oreo.. if not he would just split it and set it back in his tray.

i agree. while it seems like a great find by Matt Damon, i'm sure people would have noticed before him :confused:

So eat or not eat? Damn, that seems like the easiest tell to spot in the entire movie. Seems strange.

It's called "suspension of disbelief" ;).

I really like this movie, even if it's flawed.

his tell was HOW he split the oreos, if he put it to his ear then he had a better hand that Matt D. and would take Matt to the cleaners.
EDIT: Like the other posts said, it was a stupid tell because it was SO obvious

Did KGB show his straight when Matt folded his two pairs? If KGB showed his straight, then he's not that good of a player anyway. Movie was flawed.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner. I just watched this movie the other night, for like the 10th time or something. Then I watched In the Line of Fire not too long ago too, too much Malkovich? Naaa, there can never be too much Malkovich

I love this movie ... every time I watch it I end up playing poker. And me and my friends will always end up trying to 'fake' tells, like if I have a good hand sometimes I'll start rocking back and forth ... just to throw the other guys off sometimes.
