Molly's Game

From Hollywood’s Elite, to Wall Street’s Billionaire Boys Club, My High-Stakes Adventure in the World of Underground Poker

De: Molly Bloom

Narrado por: Cassandra Campbell

Now a major motion picture, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin and starring Jessica Chastain, Idris Elba, Kevin Costner, and Michael Cera—the true story of ""Hollywood’s poker princess"" who gambled everything, won big, then lost it all.

Molly Bloom reveals how she built one of the most exclusive, high-stakes underground poker games in the world—an insider’s story of excess and danger, glamour and greed.

In the late 2000s, Molly Bloom, a twentysomething petite brunette from Loveland Colorado, ran the highest stakes, most exclusive poker game Hollywood had ever seen—she was its mistress, its lion tamer, its agent, and its oxygen. Everyone wanted in, few were invited to play.

Hundreds of millions of dollars were won and lost at her table. Molly’s game became the game for those in the know—celebrities, business moguls, and millionaires. Molly staged her games in palatial suites with beautiful views and exquisite amenities. She flew privately, dined at exclusive restaurants, hobnobbed with the heads of Hollywood studios, was courted by handsome leading men, and was privy to the world’s most delicious gossip, until it all came crashing down around her.

Molly’s Game is a behind the scenes look at Molly’s game, the life she created, the life she lost, and what she learned in the process.

I'll bet the movie will be better than the book

Slow in development, but interesting story. it did drag in places. i am sure the screen play will bring more story lines.

This book was EXACTLY the same as the movie

I liked the movie so much I thought, I'll buy the book... however.. it was the same. Ordinarily the book is so much BETTER then the movie, because how could they ever for it all in? Still gave 5 stars because Molly is remarkable.

Inspiration and education. I think I fell in love with this lady a hundred times, on a hundred different levels.

I can’t even describe what this book is doing for me. Especially where I’m at in my own life, and journey. I love the book, and I have to meet this lady sometime!! 🙏

wonderful story

very well done and I couldn't put it down. can't wait to see the movie

Wow! Loved it.

I didn’t think I’d enjoy this book nearly as much as I did! I loved it! I actually had a really difficult time putting my headphones down! Definitely recommend.
