Worm: You know what always cheers me up, when I'm feeling shitty?

Mike McDermott: [siting in a chair in his apartment, with his head looking down] No, what's that?

Worm: Rolled up aces over kings. Check-raising stupid tourists and taking huge pots off of them. Playing all-night high-limit Hold'em at the Taj, "where the sand turns to gold." Stacks and towers of checks I can't even see over.

Mike McDermott: [his head looks up] Fuck it, let's go.

Worm: [pointing at him] Don't tease me.

Mike McDermott: [smiles] Let's play some cards.

Worm: Yes!

Worm: [standing up facing him] I guess the sayings' true. In the poker game of life, women are the rake man. They are the fuckin' rake.

Mike McDermott: [siting in a chair in his apartment] What the fuck are you talkin' about. What saying?

Worm: I-I don't know. There ought to be one though.

Worm: [Pretending to be a sore loser at the college fraternity game] Like my uncle Les used to say "When the money is gone, it's time to move on". So enjoy it, you secret handshaking assholes.

Mike McDermott: [in a gymnasium] Would you stop fucking around, for five goddamn minutes for once in your fucking life?

Worm: Whoa, Jesus, what happened? My old man just walked in.

Worm: [to Roman and Maurice, chastising them for deliberately speaking Russian to each other while playing poker] You wanna see the seventh card, stop speaking fucking sputnik! I'm sure you guys were talking about pirogies and snow but let's cut that out.

Grama: You owe twenty five I'll take the rest in five days

Mike McDermott: [trying to reach an agreement to pay off Worm's debt to and Teddy KGB] Five grand a week and you keep the juice going we want what you want we want to square this thing but three days is impossible no one's saying "your not the man", just think of it as a business decision, he just got out let's put him on a plan

Grama: This is not the money store we're not negotiating I tell you how it works

Mike McDermott: Then I'm asking

Grama: [Intentionally belittling Worm] you looking for some charity?

Worm: [feeling offended] , you know what?I need your fucking charity like I need your cock in my ass.

Mike McDermott: [to Worm, irritated by his ego] Will you shut the fuck up?

Grama: It's too late for him to shut the fuck up

Mike McDermott: His good for it

Grama: If you think his good for it then it's on you too

Mike McDermott: Then it's on me too

Grama: Fifteen large five days or I start breaking things.

Worm: I was trying to give us an edge

Mike McDermott: I had them

Worm: Look I'm sorry we got banged up, I took a shot and missed, it happens

Mike McDermott: Happens all the time around you

Worm: And it doesn't happen to you? You're the one that flushed his whole bank roll on one hand

Mike McDermott: Oh fuck you man, that was different

Worm: How is that different? What makes you so fucking special? Why are all your moves so smart and noble and I'm always the idiot piece of shit? You act like you're only one with any ambition

Mike McDermott: Then what's your ambition? I don't know, you tell me

Worm: I don't know, I don't think like that

Mike McDermott: No, you don't think

Worm: No, I don't think like you, you always think you can beat the game straight up, that's not me, and I'm always going to look for that edge, always

Mike McDermott: Alright, what's the edge now? We owe fifteen grand in a day and we're broke, what the fuck do we do?

Worm: That's easy, we get the fuck outta dodge, we stay clear of the city for a while, we'll hit the road, we'll be up again in no time, this will all blow over, we'll have a ball.

Mike McDermott: not a fucking chance I'm going to live like that, you talk to Grama, you get him to stake me

Worm: it's not going to work, we're not dealing with Grama.

Mike McDermott: [surprised] you said Grama was on his own

Worm: [looks down, remains silent, having been caught in a lie]

Mike McDermott: [insisting worm tell him the truth] you told me Grama was on his own

Worm: KGB bankrolled him

Mike McDermott: So you just fucked us right in the ass

Worm: [showing the car keys] yeah, all the way, you see what I'm saying. no fooling around, it's highway time, you with me or not?

Mike McDermott: yeah

Worm: [while base dealing] Who wants more? I'm in, I'm staging a late night comeback, a "late night rally", just to warn you

Vitter: [Grabs Worm's hand] Hold on there

Worm: What are you doing?

Vitter: Give me the deck

Worm: Relax don't get so agitated

Vitter: Looks like we got a rogue game here

Worm: A what?

State Trooper: What the hell is going on over here?

Vitter: [Referring to Worm] This son of a bitch is base dealing, I caught a hanger

Worm: A "hanger"? What are you saying? I don't even know what you're saying

State Trooper: His saying you're dealing off the bottom of the deck

Worm: Come on guys

Sean Frye: [Referring to Mike] What'd he give him?

Vitter: Seven of hearts

State Trooper: [to Mike and Worm] You boys working? Are you professionals?

Mike McDermott: No listen I was winning before this guy got here

State Trooper: Let the cards do the talking, if the seven didn't help you we'll listen to what you have to say

Worm: [Ozzie turns mike's cards over] hey, three of a kind you've Ozzie three sixes like...

Vitter: SHUT UP

State Trooper: [Vitter gives him the deck of cards and he shows the ace of spades on the bottom] One last thing

Worm: [All the state troopers stand up] Alright take it easy are you going to read us our rights at least?

Worm: [to Mike after Worm was released from prison] You've got to understand there's two economies in there, there's cash and there's trade, so I've got to keep three games going at once, a game with the white guys, a game with the brothers and a game with the guards, the trick is I've got to skim enough cash off the white guys so I can lose it to the guards so they can keep doing me favors and then I've got to trim enough smokes off the brothers so I can trade and keep living in the "style" I've grown accustomed to and I've got to do all of this without getting my ass kicked.

Worm: [sitting inside Jo's jeep, outside the fraternity house] Here's the play: I know this girl Barbra I was so close to banging her before I went away, she works as a hostess for all the trust fund babies in there, she got me in their game, she introduces me as her "cousin" from out of town who loves to gamble and wants to win at poker.

Mike McDermott: It sounds solid, that's a nice hook up

Worm: It's all the way nice, but I got this "feeling".

Mike McDermott: What "feeling" is that exactly?

Worm: You know this "feeling", I got the table all set, knife, fork, sauce...

Mike McDermott: [Implying Worm doesn't have money to buy into this game] You just don't have the "steak"

Worm: Exactly

Mike McDermott: [Giving Worm money] here's two twenty, that'll get you started

Worm: Two twenty? Thanks but that's like eleven bets I can't even get a table in here.

Mike McDermott: Then forget this game I'll straighten you out in the city tomorrow.

Worm: I'm already behind here.

Mike McDermott: You just got out, what's the big fucking hurry?

Worm: The hurry is other than you, there are five guys eagerly waiting my release.

Mike McDermott: How much do you owe?

Worm: Like ten.

Mike McDermott: Ten?

Worm: I can't even figure it out with the juice. I can get started on this easy if it's you and me working together.

Mike McDermott: I heard you asking me before and I hear you asking now but I can't do that, I just can't do that, I've made promises.

Worm: I totally understand, its fine. I'll just make a couple moves earlier than I would've before.

Mike McDermott: [talking on the street, outside Chester Field club] You're in town for five fucking minutes and you already got a sign on your back

Worm: That fucking Knish rat me out? Come on you've got to stop listening to that guy, he sees all the angles but doesn't have the balls to play any.

Mike McDermott: That guy hasn't had to work in fifteen years

Worm: You don't think that's work? Grinding it out on his leather ass? No thank you.

Mike McDermott: I thought so too now I know what real work is, speaking of which are you going to get a job? Are you going to look? Or you're just going back to printing those credit cards? Are you going away again?

Worm: First of all I wasn't "printing" I was "distributing" its different, second of all I'm never going back there, stop worrying so much.

Mike McDermott: I want you to think long term, be smart every place in Manhattan they all keep books if you get listed as a "mechanic" not only you're going to get the shit kicked out of you you're not going to get a game anywhere in New York, it's just stupid it's bad business.

Worm: This is what I love about you, you think about the big picture.

Worm: But it's not me, I don't play the game straight up then if I lose I find some real work I see a mark I take them down, that's what I do, that's the way I live.

Mike McDermott: I know you're the guy that taught me all the angles but I'm not the one with my nose open right now, I'm going to preach to you, those two guys in there they're not "rabbits" ,Roman and Maurice they're Russian outfit guys, not as bad as KGB but you don't want to be fucking around with those guys.

Worm: Those fake Versace shirts and shit?

Mike McDermott: You still got time, go back in there and lose their money back to them, and make it look good.

Petra: [hunched on top on the bar in the Chesterfield ] So how'd you do?

Worm: [Hands her his winnings in poker chips] So, so, six thousand, two thousand and here's two more

Petra: Alright so its ten grand total, take back the two we lent you, give you the "white meat."

Worm: [leaning on front the bar] you know what? Why don't you give me all of it?

Petra: Usually credit players leave with their profit otherwise the juice starts five points a week on Mike

Worm: Ok we'll owe you

Grama: [coming up from behind him] I heard you were out

Worm: [sitting down at a strip club] Hey, how you doing? I was just thinking about you, I could use you see me in two weeks I'll put you back on the payroll

Grama: I got bad news for you Worm I'm out on my own now

Worm: Really? Go figure

Grama: A lot of people were angry when you went away

Worm: [shows him a roll of cash] I know that's why I'm trying to put together a roll here

Grama: A lot of people asking if I could help if I knew where to find you so it got me thinking

Worm: [sarcastically, before Grama drags him into the bathroom] Really? You're thinking now? That's big

Grama: [Inside the bathroom] Here's what I'm thinking: instead of you owing fifteen grand spread out to five guys, you owe twenty five to me

Worm: What? Where the fuck do you get off?

Grama: where do I get off?Here's how it is, twenty five to me and the juice is still running

Worm: Jesus Christ, what the fuck are you doing? You were my partner

Grama: No I was your lackey, but I learned a few things Worm I consolidated your outstanding debt

Worm: Where did you come up with the scratch for that?

Grama: What I did was go partners with an old friend of yours Teddy KGB backed me

Worm: Bullshit

Worm: Teddy has plenty of goons why would he put you under his play?

Grama: Because as soon as he heard your name he became excited about the prospect

Worm: So you bought me up Grama?

Grama: Yeah, a real sweet deal too thirty cents on the dollar, not a lot of faith out there in the business community

Worm: Great so you're a banker now? That's real classy

Grama: Not exactly I don't have to tell you my collection methods

Mike McDermott: [Realizes Jo left him, sitting in a chair in his apartment] I always told her she'd be a good card player, she'd know exactly know when to release a shitty hand

Worm: [standing in front of him] Oh come on forget that this girl is obviously wrapped way too tight for a living

Mike McDermott: I knew it, I fucking knew it

Worm: This is depressing you can't trust them, you can't trust them at all, you domesticated yourself for this girl you took yourself out of life you walked a fucking line for her and the minute you want a little of it back she walks out on you

Worm: [in a gymnasium] What do you want me to say? Those were wild times you were there too

Mike McDermott: Nothing's changed you were hiding from your troubles then and your hiding from your troubles now

Worm: I like to hide that's part of the fun for me

Mike McDermott: If we fucked up back then the worst thing that could happen was catch a beating or get expelled, you're fixing to go down it's almost as if you want to

Mike McDermott: [while walking in the street, referring to the amount of money they have to make in order to pay off Worm's debt to Grama] Fifteen grand in five days I can do that I've gone on rushes like that before

Worm: [referring to the amount of cash his carrying right now] On optimum conditions with a bank roll, maybe, what'd you got on you?

Mike McDermott: I got like three fifty

Worm: That's twelve hundred between us we might've play the lotto

Mike McDermott: You find the games you scout them out I sit I mop them up

Worm: We might have a shot at this if we sat down and did our thing

Mike McDermott: No I'm going to do that, I'm going to do this straight up

Worm: [while getting shaved in a barbershop, referring to the amount of money they have on hand] We got seventy three hundred we've got to double that in two days

Mike McDermott: If we get close and come up a little short...

Worm: If we come up a little short Grama will shoot us and bury us in a hole somewhere

Worm: [to Mike before he drives off after Worm was caught base dealing, and they were both beaten and thrown out of the sheriffs game] See ya when I see ya, atleast you're "rounding" again right? You're gona thank me for that some day.

Worm: [while taking poker chips from Mike at the poker room inside The Mirage casino] let's get started, shall we?

Taj Dealer: [to worm] I'm sorry sir you can't take chips from another player at the table

Card Player: [referring to the other rounders at the table, before turning to the player sitting to his right] you know what we all know each other here, we're like friends, so if nobody complains, do you have a problem?

Card Player: it's alright

Worm: there's no problem

Taj Dealer: sir, you have to buy them from me

Worm: [in a gymnasium] Hey, I'm not gonna let a garbage can fall on my head.

Mike McDermott: No, you're gonna jump out of the way and let it land on me.
