and my favorite poker player in a movie (and real life is...) -

[whiskeytown]

Doc. Holliday - Tombstone...

I love those lines...the character as Val Kilmer plays him... - everything about the character is awesome

"Maybe poker isn't your game, Ike - I know...let's have a spelling contest"

"Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself"

"It's true, you are a good woman. Then again, you may be the antichrist. "

my fav. poker player of all time...walked into Tombstone with about 50K according to most estimates from gambling in other parts....

of course, he may have also been a cheat, and he was certainly a killer...but he was also a good poker player.
