That's the thing, I think people sleep on Nucky too much. He took AR behind the woodshed with that whupping at AR's own game. We've never seen Nucky play cards, especially poker....took over $200K from AR, got up from the table & walked off like it wasn't shyt to him.

This is a classic case of false advertisement.
In the season 4 promo they marketed Narcisse way more gully, they even showed him giving someone that work and it looked like NYC.

That was more about AR's story than Nucky being some secret card shark....if you know the history, you know what I'm talking about.
Oh, I know about AR's downfall directly related to his out of control gambling. In that episode, he ended up being down 300K when Nucky got up from the table, which could be a reference to the 300K debt that got him killed. Who knows how much more he lost by the time Lansky convinced him to call it a night

Another great episode, btw.
Count me amongst the crowd disappointed in the opener, but this shyt has been pure unadulterated piff ever since.
Meyer rising, Capone & Obanion about to engage in an extremely bloody war, Dr Narcisse pulling Dunn's strings....
Was I the only one scared shytless that Nucky, before he mentioned the carnations, was sending him to the train station to meet Margaret.

In reality, if he's a man of his own words, you should help and teach the weak, not exploit them for profit. That's what rich corporate white America does. Either way I like this new character. He's a scene stealer that's for sure
Haven't checked back in the thread, but yall know that the show was renewed for a 5th season last week, right?
Nice! Didn't realize it won the most awards at the recent Emmy's.
“Thanks to Terry Winter, Martin Scorsese, Tim Van Patten, Howard Korder and their stellar team, 'Boardwalk Empire' remains in a class by itself,” Michael Lombardo, president of HBO programming, said in a statement. “I look forward to another electrifying season of this impeccably crafted series.”
The Atlantic City-based mafia prohibition drama stars Steve Buscemi as Nucky Thompson, Stephen Graham as Al Capone, Michael K. Williams as Chalky White and Jack Huston as Richard Harrow.
"Boardwalk" Season 3 guest star Bobby Cannavale was a surprise winner at the 2013 Emmys, taking home the Best Supporting Actor statue for his portrayal of mobster Gyp Rosetti. "Boardwalk" won 5 total Emmys at the ceremony, the most of any show.

Nucky is the meeting point for all the characters.
He cant be too much of anything, but he is a little bit of everything.
its not what White America does...its what people in general do.
damn i thought the dude ur talkin about was cissero? and herc from the wire said his name was frank?
just saw this ep, finally. shyt was ill 
-we havent seen rothstein lose his composure once so far in the series. watchin him still at the poker game when everyone had gone home was like listenin to jay call into hot 97
-i fukkin knew elis son was gonna kill that kid with the poison, as soon as i saw them take it off the shelf
-narcisse is a ridiculously good supporting character. the whole shyt about him floodin harlem with heroin when that seems to contradict his message makes him play out that much more interesting. plus i feel like were gonna see him do some gully ass shyt later in the season
-prolly the best acting ive seen from dude who plays capone. dude is a fukkin psychopath

I'm gonna have to take anything else you say in this thread as trolling at this point.
Francis White
i been away to long, my feeling died.
again i looked at all the promos and this 1 explains him and what his story is supposed to be, in no shape or form could his group take on NY. He is looking to expand to AC in numbers and drugs. You saying he going to take on Owney Madison or AR or Lucky and Meyer for the drug trade?
They could do so much with this show if they chose to. Who wouldn't be interested in a series after this is over about Capone and Luciano as a spinoff. Even an origin story about Rothstein would be a good idea from HBO.
