    I was good.

    The God of Gamblers movies are fun. More slapstick comedy than anything else but has some fun gambling scenes. Hitting up a few of these movies is worth an afternoon.

    I enjoyed the remake of the gambler w Marky Mark

    The physiological angle & morality of the gal was a nice touch

    It's a good movie

    Another type of gambling for a different type of pot.

    Every betting scene on the basketball court in White Men Can't Jump...

    From when Billy Ho hustled Sidney Deane...

    To when Billy missed three dunks in a row, lost his $$, the pizza got cold and the wine got warm..

    Classic movie...

    Casino Raiders 2 至尊無上2 is the best gambling movie I've seen.



    For best gambling scene start at timestamp 45:00 then watch for about 7 minutes, this scene is about 3 gambling disciples who followed the same gambling master but one of them betrayed the rest and is now rich and famous, the traitor kidnaps the daughter of one of the others to force him not to compete in big time tournaments anymore - this scene is them trying to negotiate her release, you don't have to understand Chinese to appreciate this gambling scene
