    My favorite part of this scene is when he gets a drink at the end. He just had them empty their pockets and even covered the ring. No one else in the room has any money left to buy a drink! He didn’t just deflate the challenge, but totally messed with their heads. A brilliantly written and acted scene.

      Its a fantastic approach and so different from other greats like Daniel Day-Lewis, Denzel Washington, Jack Nicholson, etc... guys who put on the character rather than put themselves on the character.

      One of the really awesome things about him is his speech rhythm, with his off-beat pauses and unpredictable gestures... kinda like what William Shatner did with Captain Kirk. That speech rhythm makes him great at tense moments like this one, but it's also great with comedy, and motivation. Ever seen his "two little mice" speech?

    • @flumpyhumpy

      I read an interview with him once where he said that his characteristic speech rhythm comes from his days as a dancer. He said that he remembers the dialogue as if it's choreography, all about beats and rhythms. It's a dance. Not consciously. It just happens for him that way.

    It was a small film that went largely unnoticed, but you can tell that the big names Mars Callahan managed to snag clearly relished their roles and did the first-time director a big solid
    by cutting their salaries, etc. I've seen this movie at least 50 times, as well as The Hustler and The Color of Money. A perfect trilogy. Walken has so many scene-stealing moments, and everyone else is at the top of their game as well. I think this might have been Rod Stieger's final film?

    Omg I love love the way he acts. I remember about 8 to 10 years ago. I remember going to this restaurant very cozy and the owner had a lot of pictures of famous actors. They used to go to the restaurant. I remember it was winter and it was so cold, so I went to buy breakfast for my kids. So I was sitting waiting for my order and when I looked to my right, omg there was Christopher Watkins omg and I was looking at him and he was looking at me. I remember he was drinking coffee and eating breakfast. So I'm so stupid that I froze lol, I wanted to say something but I was froze so he looked at me and he wink at me. He was dressed in black as always wearing a scarf around his neck. He gave me that sassy smile of him. And I couldn't say anything. I remember the name of the restaurant SHELDON'S, it was located in sunny isle in the beach. ofcourse is not there anymore but the owner was a very beautiful women she was like maybe in her early 70s. So she came with my order so I asked her, I told her one I just saw the actor Christopher Watkins omg, she looked at me and said, oh please he comes every year especially during Christmas. And the day I saw him it happened to be on Christmas. I totally freak out. She goes well did you talk to him lol I replied no I couldn't and she's starting laughing. Omg I'm so stupid lol. But yes I saw him. What a day I couldn't believe it. But he said in interview that I was watching and he said that he always use the same clothes on the movies. He never gets rid of them and is obvious like to dress up in black. He's one of my favorite actors.

      Jimmy Russel okay now cool your jets.... you don't want to show your hand too much! Cuz then someone like me sees it and realizes you don't know what you're talking about. On the regular floor it is very possible to earn more than what you get on average in a high-roller room. That's not really a speculation or guess it is math. People in High Roller rooms don't run such great risks as they do on the floors that you and me go to. Me for instance, I took huge risks when bedding my winnings. that I could have just walked away with!! And yes sir it was something like $200,000. Obviously that's not nearly as much money as what you're talking about. However I only gambled in Las Vegas once. The reason why I took such a risk is because I knew people took bigger risks and WON!!!! Now clearly you can say that my story is made up. However, what you can't say is that my fact are unfounded. Statistics is what makes the world go round. It's what makes gambling, gambling!! But if you're going to say that the high-roller room is where a unicorn sucks you off while you have a cheeseburger and watching Iron Mike Tyson in his prime taking on a young Lennox Lewis! Then you are exactly the mark that Las Vegas is waiting for
