This can be said to be a follow-up to (Hustler, the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes) in a sense!

Let me first briefly talk about the plot of the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes: Paul Newman played the fast gunner Eddie, his life wanders in the circle of gambling, evasion, and deception. No matter how he dodges, he can't get out of his true self. Although it does not describe how Eddie swept across the army, he told the heart of a gambler.



Now back to the true colors of money!

Eddie opened his own small bar after years of sinking, and lived a leisurely life, and had a happy "two-person world". One day I thought it was a young man: Vincent, came to the bar and gambled with others. Eddie saw his talent and didn't think of himself back then! Decided to train Vincent as an apprentice! Under the persuasion of Vincent's girlfriend and Eddie, Vincent embarked on the Atlantic race! Under Eddie’s training, Vincent has gradually grown from a hairy boy to an experienced gambler! Eddie finally got itchy, gambling with others. But after having tasted the taste of failure, the gap in his heart was his decision to leave Vincent. At this time, Vincent is full of wings and continues his Atlantic Road!

During the Atlantic Open, the master and the disciple collided and sparks splattered! Eddie defeated Vincent! Who knows that all this is another bet for Vincent! Eddie, who learned of this situation, felt disgraced and deeply insulted!

In the semifinals, Eddie and Vincent met again. Eddie's dignity drove him to put down his club, and left the game.

In the empty ball room, Eddie and Vincent had another match. Along with the phrase "I'm back", Eddie hit the ball loudly... That's the



story!

But this movie, like the prodigal son, is not a description of how to slaughter opponents on the table and win the final victory! The opposite is how he was overwhelmed by billiards, real life, and their own personality defects time and time again, and struggled to survive. Vincent was caught in a gambling game and couldn't help himself, indulging in the endless temptation of money! Eddie’s desire and dignity have been colliding with each other, and what makes him a headache is how to choose his own way!

In fact, what I want to say is-billiards are not for gambling! Gambling and money will make you farther and farther away from the real billiards!

There is another bright spot in the movie! ——Balabushika, a beautiful handmade pole was given to Vincent by Eddie! Perhaps this is the reason why many handmade pole enthusiasts watch this movie! Oh,



I hope everyone likes this movie!
