Molly's Game [Movie Tie-In]: The True Story of the 26-Year-Old Woman Behind the Most Exclusive, High-Stakes Underground Poker Game in the World

By Molly Bloom

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. Molly's Game is Ben Mezrich-style storytelling mixed with an insiders-only look at how one of the biggest poker games in the world was built from the ground up.

Full Description

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.

When Molly Bloom was a little girl in a small Colorado town, she dreamed of a life without rules and limits, a life where she didn't have to measure up to anyone or anything--where she could become whatever she wanted.

She ultimately got more than she could have ever bargained for.

In Molly's Game, she takes you through her adventures running an exclusive high-stakes private poker game catering to such clients as Hollywood royalty like Leonardo DiCaprio and Ben Affleck, athletes, billionaires, politicians, and financial titans. With rich detail, Molly describes a world of glamour, privilege, and secrecy in which she made millions, lived the high life, and fearlessly took on the Russian and Italian mobs--until she met the one adversary she could not outsmart: the United States government.

It's the story of how a determined woman gained--and then lost--her place at the table, and of everything she learned about poker, love, and life in the process.
