I'm excited to jump right in and share my top 5 favorite gambling films. It's tough to choose just five, but here are mine, in order of preference:
The Sting
Let it Ride
Honeymoon in Vegas
Owning Mahoney
Tie between The Gambler (1974) and Casino
From the classic con-artist caper of The Sting to the gritty realism of Owning Mahoney, there's a little something for everyone here.

I love a good gambling movie, and I have to say your list is pretty solid! Personally, I would switch the order around a bit, but that's just me. Have you seen the movie "21"? It's about a group of MIT students who use card counting to win big in Las Vegas. Definitely one of my favorites.

The last time I watched Uncut Gems it was a very amazing movie.

LAY THE FAVORITE was ok. It had a few references to this life grinding we have chosen. Does anyone know if Dink used to post on this site back in the day? I have a suspicion that he did under a certain handle and maybe more than one. I think he was one of the og posters.
