    15 minutes into Owning Mahowny when he's in some double date game night situation but needs unc to cover -1.5 so even though they're up a point very late and about to win the game, he's crawling on the floor in this super focused panic, staring at the tv and ignoring his guests and interrupting the festivities for what looks to some of them like no reason and to the rest of them like a small reason. But in reality he'd bet 30k he really couldn't afford on it and was internally begging the gambling gods for a free throw to go in.

    Hard to beat Rounders. There's some hilarious scenes with Mush in Bronx Tale. The casino scene in Rain Man is also pretty classic. I think this one is a hidden gem though:

    That might have been the funniest considering how he scammed his Co workers and the introduction he had to the game upon waking up

    My mistake, as funny as that was in bad lieutenant I thought it was even funnier when he convinced everyone in his precinct to give him $$ to bet on on or against the Mets and then he went ahead and used that $$ to bet the other way

    He goes ab his dirty cop business getting effed up on drugs and hooked and wakes up on his couch the next day with the game midway and strawberry cracks a home run and he starts cheering until he sees the score

    Fast Times at Ridgemont High: Mike Damone booking a bet from Arnold on the upcoming homecoming game, explains how much Arnold can make and then says: " and don't forget about the 14 point spread"... Could not find the clip of this but its priceless!

    Paul Newman vs. Robert Shaw playing 5 card draw poker in The Sting. IMO it's the greatest gambling scene from the greatest gambling movie ever made.
