best poker scene ever filmed, hands down
its not a preview, its the opening scene of California Split, Gardena in the 70s Robert Altman directs Elliot Gould as a likable douchebag and George Segal as a degenerate.

Re: best poker scene ever filmed, hands down
Nah, sorry, that is the second best, but still great.
The best is The Sting, by far.

Re: best poker scene ever filmed, hands down
Nice. But old school.
- smoking at the tables
- chalkboard signup
- foul language
- fighting

Re: best poker scene ever filmed, hands down
Was there a rule in the 70s that George Segal and Elliot Gould had to be in every movie?
