There are just too many bad poker flicks out there. The one plot point that always drives me crazy is the betting someone out of a pot thing. You know the one: If you can't call the bet you'll have to fold; oh, gee wiz, will you take the homestead as collateral? It just gets me that nobody seemed to know what table stakes meant.

Anyway...

"Deal", the 2008 movie with Burt Reynolds wasn't bad. It's a teacher/student flick where the student is gearing up to make a run at the wsop and is coached by a former world class poker player. Lots and lots (and lots) of cliches, but not a bad movie.


If you can get past the aforementioned table-stakes issue, I really enjoyed "Shade" with Sylvester Stallone. Thematically very different from "Rounders", but I thought it was a fun con-game movie with a decent amount of poker action.

There's also "All In: The Poker Movie" and "Bet Raise Fold" if you enjoy documentaries. I thought both were good and worth a viewing.

High Roller: The Stu Ungar Story wasn't bad. It was biographical, not sure how much "hollywood" liberties were taken though.
 
I advise you to watch the movie "Maverick", starring Mel Gibson. This is a good movie for fun.

Hello friend, poker movies I like are:

All in
master bet
Rounders
Deal
Poker Generation
 
It's nice to see that there are a lot of good poker movies. I going to have to check some of these movies out.
 
For me the best poker movie is The Princess of poker. Of course, gamblers not bad but the actress playing Molly suits me more.🙂🙂🙂

Look for the best poker broadcasts of champions, why do you need movies, and maybe you can repeat some moments of champions and win some good tournaments and learn well the game and get great profits from the game, I wish you good luck!

I've seen a few good movies with great poker scenes but few good movies, rounders being the best. I recently watched mollys game which was a good poker film also.
