Rounders 2 a reality?

A month ago, I wrote that Matt Damon was interviewed at the red carpet for "Ante Up For Africa at the 2009 World Series of Poker" and then he said that "the only reason to do a movie like that would be if we had a great idea".

Few days ago Pokerlistings.com have posted an article titled "Rounders 2 a reality?".

Here are some quotes from creators:
"Brian and I had been working on the rough beginnings of a screenplay idea about two friends, and deciding what to do with one's life, and we weren't sure exactly what world we were going to set it in," he explained.

"Then Brian called me at about three in the morning and said 'I just lost all my money at an underground poker club. It was awesome. We've got to set the movie here.'

"The next night we went, and kept going back, playing at clubs all over the city every night for a year. We read all the available important poker books too, and began writing the script during the mornings."
