I thought Hardball was a good movie. I know its not all gambling, but it shows the life of a degenrate. ( a really shitty one)

somewhat suprised to see California Split mentioned because, to the best of my knowledge, it hasn't been on TV in years.

it's definately one of the BEST "gambling comedy's" along with Let It Ride (which has been on The Movie Channel a few times recently).

Although I do like Rounders and Let It Ride, yet to be mentioned is Diggstown. Its about hustling and gambling and fixed fights. It is a great movie with a very good cast. Anyone else ever seen it? James Woods and Lou Gossett Jr. are the main actors in it. If you like gambling or boxing this is the movie to watch!

very entertaining, but so imaginary. So many things that happened in that movie would never happen like that in real life.

The need to do a remake of Two 4 the Money on how NOT to be a scamdicapper nor pay one.

Best on my list

Rounders and Casino. Liked Owning Mahowney also, that one gives you that sick feeling in your guts watching it..

May watch The Cooler tonight, never seen that..

Hardball. That scene where hes got 12 dimes on chicago +6 at home. That music... We all can relate.. "Jones throws up a 30 footer, it's in. Cover!" Classic
