Cisco Kid or San Francisco Kid with Steve McQueen in it is and oldie but goodie. A couple of The Gambler movies with Kenny Rogers were also decent. The old "The Hustler" with Newman and Gleason was good.

I also liked Indecent Proposal with Redford, Demi Moore, and Woody Harrelson. White Men Can't Jump is a good one with Snipes and Harrelson.

I second the motion for "The Gambler".

Honorable mention is the 3-card brag scene from "Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels". The rest of that movie is refreshingly violent, recommended to anyone on the violence content alone.

You forgot "California Split". George Seagal and Elliot Gould as low-limit California poker players that take a trip to the big-time in Reno.
