But they have issues - something to do with the way the old man treated Huck's mother - and they are, eventually, head-to-head competitors in a very big Texas Hold 'Em game. Huck also has - you guessed it! - commitment problems. He meets a sweet-spirited woman named Billie Offer (Drew Barrymore), who's a poker innocent, but wise in the ways of fiddle-footed men whose obsessions do not necessarily include settling down with sensible women...
