The only one I have seen is... "Two for the money"
Are there any other cools ones, that may have left you with a pumped up feeling?
Bookies was ok. Leonard from Big Bang did some decent acting.
Hardball w/ K. Reeves had an element of sportsbeiing, but I turn it off after he quits.
Can't really think of anymore.

The Gambler/ Caan is about the only one because there is no great sportsbet movie. There is no movie for sportsbetting like Let it Ride for horses or The Sting,or The Hustler, The Cincinnati Kid, or The Color of Money. The only other one I can think is Nine Men Out./ BlackSox scandal.
Two for the Money/ the Brandon Lang story and Bookies are jokes. This new one Lay the Favorite is DOA.
Read Smart Money or The National Football Lottery.

actually it's Eight Men Out (1988). and it IS a VERY well made movie about that "Black Sox" scandle
another "under the radar" gambling movie is California Split (1974) with George Segal and Elliott Gould. it's kind of a "Rounders" meets "Let It Ride" comedy. GREAT poker game scene near the end with "Amarillo Slim" Preston as one of the players along with Segal. I wish that TCM or some other movie channel would run it in a "gambling marathon" sometime

Actually you wouldn't need to write a script just film a documentary any Sat/Sun @ Stardust. I remember sitting there Friday night and wannabes like LemBanker coming down to see what real gamblers were doing.
You're right LeRat 8men/9men I've murdered a million brain cells.
