Comes Around". Cassavetes came in fifth in the World Poker Tour (WPT) Invitational Season 5, attempting a bluff. He also appeared on season 5 of The Game Show Network's (GSN) ''High Stakes Poker''. He also has played himself in the season 7 opener of ''Entourage'' on HBO and Tattoo Joe as a cameo in ''The Hangover: Part II'', replacing Liam Neeson from the cast due to scheduling conflicts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nick Cassavetes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
