It was later confirmed that it is legal to organize private games in California and New York, but the premise is that the organizers can only charge tips, which depends on the player’s mood. Once a fixed percentage of commission is drawn from the gambling capital, it is deemed Illegal. Alas, there is a thin piece of gauze between legal and illegal. The law is so detailed, shouldn't Molly's abacus be more precise?
Molly's life is also drawing cards. It's just that the normal shuffled cards are randomly distributed, but Molly's fate is "biased". The patriarchal society is a reality, and it creates difficulties for Molly from time to time, but Molly's careful calculation reflects the superb skill of walking a tightrope. If she said that the only time she had an irrational choice was to continue to rush after spinal surgery, this is her wrong estimation of the cost of benefits. Since then, she has cleverly avoided the risk of "wet shoes" time and time again.
Molly's rationality can be seen from the beginning as an assistant for Dean Keith's "Prada Wearing Demon Head" that she is not Anne Hathaway, and she has thrown away Streep's life-threatening call and let her go. Molly knows that the cost of swallowing is limited, but the benefits are unlimited. In her own words, she is just a fly observed on the wall, but within a year she has figured out all the game routines and terms by google, not to mention Hollywood celebrities, Wall Street giants and sports stars. Inside the industry (the subtext is Molly is also a professional investor?).
Molly's next draw was a "risk card." Dean's fragile self-esteem couldn't stand the charm and intelligence that Molly couldn't hide, and was determined to drive her out of her own set of cards. It stands to reason that Molly should accept it as soon as she sees it and save enough tuition to go to school, but she sees the fragility of human nature under the cover of this vanity fair, and is determined to continue to fight for it. Following the familiar routine of "sales staff leaving and taking away customers", Molly alone formed a celebrity underground card game. I have to mention "Mr. X" here. The cards are played the best, but the tip is the least (foreign media guess is Spider-Man). He was very successful at the beginning of Molly's "entrepreneurship". It was he who led everyone to switch to Molly. , But Cheng Ye Xiao He defeated Xiao He, Mr. X lacked Molly's overall view of the overall situation, and loan sharks when the card friends lost all the money, which violated Molly's long-term vision, so Molly was knocked out by Mr. X again.
Not on the west coast. There is still a vast world on the east coast. The secret of Molly as an evergreen in the poker game is that she knows how to "do something and not do something". Credit bargaining chips is an effective way to encourage celebrities to invest in gambling. The logic behind it is the same as the expansion of bank credit in 2015 to encourage ordinary people to buy houses and destock. But Molly, like the country, understands that excessive credit is a sword of Damocles hanging over her head. Molly is the role of the bank. If she does not have enough currency in stock, when the winning gamblers take their chips back to cash, the card game she worked so hard will be ruined. Therefore, Molly warmly persuaded the red-eyed old businessmen to go home quickly. Because of repeated defeats and eagerness to comeback is a taboo of "Texas Hold'em", it will only increase the leverage of Molly Bank and increase Molly's operating risks. She knows this well. So, he rebuked the rich second-generation Xiaokai for secretly bringing other chips into the game, and refused the gang's request to join the gang. When he was bitten by the gang but swallowed it, Molly knew exactly where his boundaries were.
I think the most controversial thing is Molly's refusal to disclose the real name and contact information of clients to the FBI. The cost of refusing to cooperate is the disaster of prison, but after a few years in jail, you have become a tough guy. You bite your teeth and do not betray your friends. When you are released from prison, those friends will not be moved by your loyalty. , Rushing to come. So, after a few years in jail, it became a living billboard. If Molly is operating legally and innocently, this is what it should be. If Molly really violated the law and crossed the boundary, he should still bite his teeth and not let go, the big deal is that you can't find anything. Such a simple logic is the moral selling point of the film. If you pay attention to the book "The Crucible" (The Witch of Salem) read by the lawyer's daughter, you can understand that the screenwriter used the "witch trial" to assert Molly's innocence.
Judging from the explanation of the film, Molly admitted that her mistakes were drug use, and she was forced to agree to a 2% commission to replenish the inventory currency in a game where gambling money was getting tired. Besides, she has a clear conscience. Of course, having said that, the book is self-written and self-directed, and the movie is bragging. Only Molly knows whether the shoes are wet or not.
