An old chinese flick with Chow Yun Fat. A classic.

Uh...Oceans 11 remake?!
Classic humour:
"Fellas, Fellas..... All red." come on! That's poker to the uninitiated. My top 3 in no order are the Cincinatti Kid, The Hustler and Casino. But i have seen many of the others and most are excellent. You gotta thank them all for the fishies! Regards, Pete Harris

Re: top 3 gambling movies
In no particular order, I'm going beyond 3...
Owning Mahoney, Casino, Rounders, Let It Ride, The Cooler, The Sting, theres more...but the best one is. Easy Money with Rodney Dangerfield. (a few gambling elements but the entire movie is based on a "bet")

I just doubt that any casino would do such a supersticious thing, anyone knows? My list: Rounders, God of Gamblers, The Sting, The Croupier, The Cooler Can't think of anymore except Maverick but that one has nothing to do on a best-list -Aron

Re: top 3 gambling movies
"If your list contains the Kenny Rogers version of The Gambler, you've gotta know when to walk away."
I meant the one with James Caan. I've never seen the one with Kenny Rogers. "Also, Croupier was so well reviewed, and blah, blah, blah, but what is good about this movie? It's a by-the-numbers heist film with ludicrous twist upon ludicrous twist, right? The scene where he stacks the deck impossibly with 3 or 4 quick strips will make any poker player laugh his/her ass off, I think." What can I say? I liked it a bunch.
