DEAL

 

Deal is a comedy with some of the same wacky characters that graced TUESDAY, namely Mike, Dale, and Ricardo. Their only noble goal, pounding out of their sweat-spotted chests, is to someday enter the World Series of Poker. This story recounts their misadventures and certified disasters in pursuit of "the dream."

 

I wrote this script long before Chris Moneymaker and the WPT ignited the poker craze currently raging through the U.S., so a lot of the WSOP stuff is out of date and even seems quaint. Hell, the WSOP's not even at Binion's anymore, though that's where it's set in this script.

 

Still, it's more about the characters and their wacked out actions, so the story can either be set in that old era of the smokey Binion's WSOP or could be updated.
