1. The Sting

This is a must watch not only for poker players but just everyone in general. This is about two grifters (con artists) who cons $11,000 (around $189,000 today) from a victim.

The victim turns out to be a footman for a crime boss (this is the Great Depression of the 1930’s after all) and what ensued is a great story about revenge and intrigue. There is a high stakes poker game here which you should not miss.

2. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

For those in the mood for a much more stylized film, this is the right one for you.

Four friends lost quite a bit of money in a game (which turns out to be highly-rigged).

They then try to acquire the money to pay their debt, legally or illegally. The gambling part is just the icing on the blood-stained, highly stylish cake that this film turns out to be.

3. Casino

With A-list actors like Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Sharon Stone as cast, and with director Martin Scorcese at the helm, you can bet that the movie is going to be great!

This is a great story of what happens if the gambling sector is run by the old ones (crime groups and mafia) to the new ones (capitalists and big corporations). Seen through the eyes of the characters, this action-packed tale will definitely be a great movie to watch!

4 Cool Hand Luke

One of the classics, this 1967 film is about Luke, a war veteran, who one night decided to cut electric meters off their poles and then was sent to prison.

This has the air of the cool guy rebellion and is a good pick me up story from the 1960s.

The poker game he played in the prison is an example of a great bluff, which earned Luke a win and the moniker “Cool Hand Luke”. A good watch, if you ask me.

5. The Hustler

Another classic that does deserve the rave reviews, The Hustler is a story about “Fast Eddie”, a small-time hustler who feels he is a big fish in a small pond. He wants to be an even bigger fish in an even bigger pond.

It shows the effects of winning, losing and learning all poker players cycle about. This story is much more compelling than what my summary is, so please watch this great, great film.

6. Rain Man

Everybody should have watched this at least once in their life.

For those who want a more touching and heartfelt movie, this one is for you.

Their journey is a great story to watch, and the card counting done here is really good (and of course anybody can do this, not only Savants like Raymond.

Card Counting is not illegal, but casinos do ban counters though so play it safe).

7. Casino Royale

Another action-packed film, this is Agent 007’s first mission and it is perfect for those who want to have the adrenaline kick.

The poker game is genuinely exciting and of course, the action scenes are great.

A good movie to start your day; it gets you pumped up to just win everything.

8. Freeze Out

Freeze Out is an interesting movie, not only because of the comedy but also because of this movie was financed by the director’s own poker winnings!

Plus, it is the all too familiar friendly poker game that escalated so hard, where friendships are questioned (kinda like a normal monopoly night). A great movie to watch with your poker friends. No trailers though, but your own friendly poker games should be a good sneak peek.

9. Bob le Flambeur

For those who like the taste of French films, Bob le Flambeur is an excellent film how old habits die hard; Bob is an ex-convict who is now broke and is now planning to rob a casino.

I will not spoil you on how it turns out, but it is a great film all in all. Not only does he have an excellent poker face, the equal parts tragic and comic ending is something to be seen.

10. The Game

A Drama, Mystery and Thriller, The Game is a thrilling story about an investment banker who has his life drained out of his job and relationships.

The direction and writing are second to none for the middle part.

Plus, there are a lot of games here where you might learn a thing or two, and not just about poker or gambling.

11. Ocean’s Eleven

With a cast that has stars that put the evening sky to shame, Ocean’s Eleven is a well-loved film about a bank heist. There are so many A-list stars on the cast which makes this film, even more, fun to watch.

This is an underwhelming review of an overwhelming film, so please do yourself the favor of watching this, or rewatching this, a great masterpiece. There is a great poker game sequen
