Hey guys, help me out here. I'm trying to remember the name of this movie but I can't remember any of the actors, only the plot, so here it is:

A guy has a date (don't know if it's his girlfriend or not) and they're on the way to/from some dressy event (maybe prom?) and they go into some dive and he gets really drunk and through some act of gambling, may have been cards, but I think it was pool (or snooker to you brits :p ) he bets his date, loses her, then wakes up the next day with a hell of a hangover and he spends the rest of the movie trying to find out where the girl is :D

Some additional info: it was probably done in the early 90s, but I wouldn't put it past late 80s. And it's definitely a comedy :D

No idea of the movie, but pool and snooker are two totally different games. You don't get many snooker tables in pubs, they're too large.

ah, my mistake carcaroth.

@DR

the only other thing I remember is a flashback scene that leads the guy to the girl in the end. a (iirc bald) guy (iirc playing pool) tells the kid that night something like "you let her go too cheap, I would've gone higher" or something like that and the guy only remembers this towards the end of the movie when he gets to the point where the girl MUST be, but isn't and realizes that she must be with that guy.

Does it help? It's killing me :bang:

argh, I don't suupose they have an accurate plot summary search engine anywhere on the net? I mean, how many comedies could have guys betting girls away drunkenly? :confused:

100 girls (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0214388/) ?

That's all I can think of right now...

I don't think it's a 100 Girls, iirc, 100 Girls was about a student looking for a mysterious chick he made love with when they were trapped in the elevator of the girls dorm... which incidentally have 100 girls.

Gee, I'm posting here again... looks like wanting to know what movie this is is also killing me. :grin:

The only film I've seen that is slightly like it is Honeymoon in Vegas, but it doesnt really match.
