Watch Live Poker: Poker in Movies (part 2)

Some time back I offered you to watch the best poker movies that were ever produced in Hollywood, and take part in our poll. According to various polls on poker movies, there’s no evident leader on the list. There’re not any hidden reasons behind that. The only question: do you like watching live poker or not?

Did you already ask yourself, “How many movies concerning poker can you name?” It doesn’t matter, and I can’t insist on taking a personal interest in poker movies if you opt for other consuming activities. IMHO, movies should make appeal to emotional side of human beings.

Hollywood often uses gambling, but rarely shows realistic poker scenes. Poker playing has always been a popular theme in the American film industry. All movies display big bets and winnings with great hands. Writers and producers have an intention to attract and delight by arousing interest to this kind of activity.

The most important point, however, is that Hollywood should shoot a TV show devoted to gambling. Sure thing the main character is talented and possesses out of the common abilities to play card games professionally. He proves himself every time playing in the high-stakes matches. He creates his own system and has to keep a secret from others (just like Clark Kent).

Besides, main heroes and characters put up a show how they’re skilled at gambling. I picked up a number of movies devoted to the best card playing scenes. I tried to sort out those ones that related to gambling one way or another. Even if some of the Hollywood films are not very good and display poker in a ridiculous manner, watching card games on the big screen is great fun (Most of these movies can be ordered via Amazon.com and imdb.com).

 

11. Sunset Trail (1939). “There’s no braver man than a scared one when he’s cornered.” One of the classical western poker movies, where we meet well-known Hapolang Cassidy (as William Boyd). This cowboy really was a very talented chap. By the way Francis Nevins devoted his book to this out of the common person, called The Films of Hapolang Cassidy. An unconquerable bumpkin is good at pistols and fists as well as hole cards.

 

12. The Gambler (1980). You’ve got to know when to hold’em, know when to fold’em, know when to walk away, and know when to run.” Brady Hawkes, The Gambler, receives a letter from his son indicating he needs help. This sends Brady to the rescue. Along the way Brady meets up with Billy Montana, a young man who thinks he knows everything about playing cards. Brady teaches Billy a few lessons along the way and they end up forming a strong friendship and team up together.

 

13. Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels (1998). “Er, bad breath, colorful language, feather duster… what do you think they’re gonna be armed with? Guns, you tit!” Guy Ritchie is one of my favorite writers and directors. It’s no coincidence that this dynamic film turned out to be part of the list. Surely, the movie is not about poker, but about the high-stakes underground game of three card brag that puts the whole film in the movie.

 

14. A Big Hand for the Little Lady (1966). The biggest high-stakes game in the West draws the attention of a man named Meredity (as Henry Fonda), who stakes his whole family fortune to get into the game. Great cast elevates film based on TV version of story. A homesteader and reformed gambler passing through town learns of the annual high-stakes poker match about to take place. He recklessly throws the family fortune into the pot but soon must turn over his chair to his wife who manages quite well to handle the cardsharps across the table.

 

15. Lucky You (2007). “Change your game. Change your life.” A hotshot poker player tries to win a tournament in Vegas, but is fighting a losing battle with his personal problems. Everybody who enjoys the television popularity of poker will like this film due to the doses of the game itself and a WSOP pro.

 

16. Shade (2003-2004). Shade is set in the world of poker hustlers working the clubs and martini bars of Los Angeles. The tale unfolds as a group of hustlers encounter “The Dean” and pull off a successful sting that results in their pursuit by a vengeful gangster. Fake poker movie. Why? It’s not about poker, but they say it’s NL Hold’em. Anyway, the movie worth a watch if you don’t play poker and don’t know rules. Great actors should learn how to play poker in order to play their parts appropriately.

 

17. Four Dogs Playing Poker (2000). A group of best friends and amateur thieves steal a valuable statuette for a ruthless black market art dealer. After the thieves botch the delivery of the objet d’art, the art dealer forces them to ‘find’ $1 million by the end of the week or face certain death. The desperate friends concoct a plan whereby each of them takes out a $1 million life insurance policy on themselves. Consequently, if one of the friends die, the others will collect on the policy and pay off the dangerous art dealer. The thieves then enter into a lethal lottery to choose who will be the victim and who will be the killer.

 

18. Poker Alice (1987). The Wild West is about to get wilder! Alice Moffit, ‘Poker Alice’, has been disowned by her Boston family because of her incurable penchant for gambling. She is travelling the West with her cousin, John, when she wins a house in a poker game on a train. The ‘house’ turns out to be a bordello, which she decides to run until she can sell it. She falls for a bounty hunter, Jeremy Collins, who is about to settle down in California. Marrying him would mean ending the life-long relationship between the two cousins.

 

19. Città gioca d’azzardo, La (1975) (aka Gambling City). A professional gambler goes to work for a crime syndicate, and becomes a favorite of the organization’s boss because he makes them so much money. However, he falls in love with the reluctant mistress of the boss’ son, who finds out about it and tries to turn his father against the gambler in order to have him killed.

 

20. California Split (1974). A down on his luck gambler (George Seagal) links up with free spirit Elliot Gould at first to have some fun on, but then gets into debt when Gould takes an unscheduled trip to Tijuana. As a final act of desperation, he pawns most of his possessions and goes to Reno for the poker game of a lifetime. A film set mainly in casinos and races, as the two win and lose (but mainly win), get robbed, and get blind drunk.

Make your selection! An appropriate poker related movie should assist everybody to perfec his skills. Find out more about those card-playing movies that you still didn’t watch. Keep an eye open for the next poker movie selection.

Watch Live Poker: Poker in Movies

Have you ever asked a question, “How many movies concerning poker can you name?”. And what do you usually answer? I believe just about everybody can easily remember some films related to poker players or games somehow or other. Surely, professional card players probably know many more motion pictures.

All movies display big bets and winnings with great hands. Writers and producers have an intention to attract and delight by arousing interest to this kind of activity. Hollywood often uses gambling, but rarely shows card playing. Generally, real aces at poker and just poker amateurs familiar with this sport activity (dull, boring, prolonged) not by hearsay.

The most important point, however, is that such card-playing movies are great helpers if you have an eager desire to learn these technical skills. Live and learn. At the same time, you see only the most spectabulous moments in movies, that’s why poker films are not realistic, but very exciting.

What else? Main heroes and characters put up a show how they’re skilled at poker. I picked up a great many movies devoted to the best card playing scenes. I tried to sort out those ones that connected with poker one way or another. (Most of these movies can be ordered via Amazon.com and imdb.com).

  1. Rounders (1998). In The Game Of Life… Play The Cards You’re Dealt. I find this film really exciting, but the main character leaves much to be desired. By the way, the term “rounder” refers to a person whose sole means of earning a living is by playing cards. Some poker scenes are useful, some – absurd. But with the growing popularity of Texas Hold’em and other poker games, Rounders has become a cult hit. That’s we don’t pay much attention to slip-ups.
  2. The cooler (2003). When your life depends on losing… the last thing you need is lady luck. The film follows a so-called Las Vegas casino “cooler” who spreads bad luck to those who are winning. William H. Macy plays the titular character, whose luck takes a turn for the better when he begins a relationship with a waitress at the casino, played by Maria Bello. This causes friction between him and his boss, played by Alec Baldwin. “The Cooler” is a must to see just for Alec Baldwin’s memorable play.
  3. Maverick (1994). The greatest gambler in the West has finally met his match. I bet you won’t find any realistic poker scenes in this movie, but still Mel Gibson does all his best (as usually) to win the heart of the audience following his own style of performance. Bret Maverick (as Mel Gibson) is a professional card-player traveling to a major poker game. He wants to win the poker championship for money and to prove that he is the best. The plot is rather shabby, but the play is too funny. All of the poker episodes are Five Card Draw.
  4. The Cincinnati Kid (1965). He’d take on anyone, at anything, anytime ….it was only a matter of who came first! Eric Stoner or The Cincinnati Kid (as Steve McQueen) is a professional card-player who travels to New Orleans to play in the high stakes poker game against Lancey Howard (as Edward G. Robbins). Surely, The Cincinnati Kid tries to prove himself in this high-stakes match. The game throughout the film is Five Card Stud. It should be mentioned, that the play is quite realistic. But even look back those days we can’t but agree that poker was considered a sport.
  5. The Big Blind (1999). “This remarkable adventure will keep you guessing. Who cashes in, and who cashes out… Who will live, and who will die?” This movie is truly shot for poker players. It’s not for guys who are interested in actions and like watching films in general, but for curious about poker. To tell the truth the Big Blind offers a lot of training scenes. The motion picture tells us about the lives of poker players at a California card room. The drama of the situation is that most of the characters are losers and crooks. It is of great value due to realistic scenes and actors’ play. Nothing unnecessary, nothing colors the truth.
  6. Honeymoon in Vegas (1992). It’s a love that’s All Shook Up! The film is opposite to the previous one due to its attitude to poker. Jack Singer (as Nicholas Cage) teamed up with a wealthy gambler (as James Caan), they love the same girl. The problem is that Singer’s fiancé reminds the gambler of his ex-wife. Tommy Korman arranges for Singer to lose $65k to him a poker game (they’re playing no limit five card draw). Thus, Singer has to break his word given to his mother on her death bed that he would never get married.
  7. The Sting (1973). Doyle, I KNOW I gave him four THREES. He had to make a SWITCH. We can’t let him get away with that. The Sting should be estimated at its true worth being among the best poker pictures ever made. Frankly speaking, it’s not about poker, but it contains one famous poker scene where Henry Gondorff (as Paul Newman) cheats the crime boss in a high-stakes game onboard a train, and also a scene where he shows off a very skilled cheat shuffling. As I have said there was not that much poker playing shown, and most of it revolved around cheating. The poker was limited to five card draw.
  8. High Roller: The Stu Ungar Story (2003). Gambler. Addict. Loser. Legend. The movie is about the life of master card-player, self-destructive junkie, Stu Ungar (as Michael Imperioli). Ungar was known as “The Kid”, who high-rolled himself to an unequalled three World Series of Poker championships, winning a reported $30 million is his brief career. Viewship can’t but agree that Unger had a special gift with cards.
  9. 21 (2008). This film is based on a true story, telling us about a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor (Kevin Spacey) who teaches a group of students to use mathematics to count cards and increase their odds of winning at Las Vegas casinos. The students are able to bring home millions as a result.
  10. The Madison Kid (2007). In 1989, the 24-year-old Phil Hellmuth became the youngest World Champion of Poker by defeating the two-time defending champion, Johnny Chan, in the World Series of Poker main event. Hellmuth attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison for three years before dropping out to play poker full time much to the chagrin of his father, a professor at the school.
