Molly's Game: The Untold Story of Tobey Maguire's Poker Club
Molly's Game, a high-stakes underground poker club, was initially hosted at Tobey Maguire's home. The club later moved to The Viper Room nightclub due to Tobey Maguire's high demands regarding cleanliness and dietary restrictions. Maguire, a vegan, was particularly bothered by guests ordering meat pizzas.
Molly Bloom, the subject of the film Molly's Game, initially served drinks to guests and invited important clients. According to Houston Curtis, the director of the film, Molly's role evolved from serving drinks to inviting high-profile guests.
Maguire's strict rules and dietary preferences led to the club's relocation. Maguire's demands included maintaining cleanliness and adhering to his vegan lifestyle, which often clashed with the preferences of his guests. This ultimately led to the decision to move the club to a more suitable location.
