My wife and I saw this at a film festival in NY while they were looking for distribution.

Lots of fun. Yes, it's worth seeing. Along the lines of the Christopher Guest movies "Waiting for Guffman" etc.

The best is once they get to the final table in the tournament it's no longer scripted and they actually played poker to find the winner.
