Four friends are swept up in a treacherous game of intrigue and betrayal during a Monday night poker game gone terribly awry. Every Monday night, Aaron Tyler (Johnathon Schaech) and his friends. The Poker Club intruchipeaza povestea a 4 tineri care organizau in fiecare luni seara o intalnire la un joc de poker si mai multe pahare de alcool. Nimic neobisnuit si aparent normal pentru americanii anilor 2007-2008. Filmul are o actiune rapida, inca de la prima intalnire care ne este aratata de catre regizor, cei 4 surprind un hot in casa lor si fara prea multa vorbarie il ucid pe acesta.

The Poker Club was one of several clubs at the heart of the Scottish Enlightenment where many associated with that movement met and exchanged views in a convivial atmosphere.[1]:110 The Poker Club was created in 1762[1]:109 out of the ashes of The Select Society. Adam Smith said, ’Divided counsels and diminished zeal supply, no doubt, the main reason for the decay of the Poker Club,’ but he also mentioned the rising costs to members.[2]The Poker Club 2008The Poker Club 2008 Film
The Poker was the name given to the Militia Club at its third or fourth meeting. The Militia was formed in Edinburgh to promote the cause of establishing a militia in Scotland. It was thought[who?] that the formation of a democratic national force was essential to grace the dignity of the nation and the aim was to make up for the omission of that provision in the Militia Act of 1757 which applied only to England and the Scottish Militia Bill which was rejected in April 1760.[3][4] The aim of the club provoked some unwelcome opposition and, at the suggestion of Adam Smith the name was changed so as to be enigmatic to the general public.[citation needed] Much as a fireplace poker stirs a fire to flame up, The Poker was to ’stir up’ the militia question.
The club was said by Dr Carlyle to consist of all the literati of Edinburgh and its surroundings.[citation needed] The establishment was frugal and moderate, ’as that for all clubs for a public purpose should be. The dinner was set soon after two o’clock, at one shilling a head, the wine to be confined to sherry and claret, and the reckoning to be called at six o’clock’.
The first fifteen members were chosen by nomination, the rest by ballot, ’two black balls to exclude the candidate’. A new ’preses’ (chairman) was chosen at each meeting. There were three office bearers: the Secretary, Sir William Pulteney, the Assassin, Andrew Crosbie and the Assassin’s Assessor, David Hume ’without whose assent nothing could be done, so that between ’plus’ and ’minus’ there was likely to be no bloodshed’.[citation needed]
The minute book of 1776 names forty three members,[citation needed] including Joseph Black, ’Jupiter’ Carlyle, Sir John Clerk of Eldin, Henry Dundas, Adam Ferguson, Lord Elibank, Sir John Dalrymple, John Hume, David Hume, William Robertson, John Robison, George Dempster, and Adam Smith.
David Hume could well find the company of The Poker a relief from a skeptical depression – ’Most fortunately it happens that since reason is incapable of dispelling these clouds, nature herself suffices to that purpose ... I dine, I play a game of backgammon, I converse, and am merry with my friends; and when after three or four hours amusement, I return to these speculations, they appear so cold, and strain’d, and ridiculous, that I cannot find it in my heart to enter into them any farther.’[5]See also[edit]References[edit]The Poker Club 2008 Boys
