Lance LeGault was an amazing actor. He brought his A game to every role. His commanding voice and presence were perfect for the characters he played and I especially liked him here as Doc. The General in Iron Eagle was another of my favorites. 😁

As much as people like to claim this scene is "unrealistic", they sure made up for the gameplay with the props.

Smart move to raise with a flush draw. Then your opponent knowing he has the best hand can go all in and you won't have the odds to call.

Has anyone noticed the continuity error in this poker scene from the Kenny Rogers movie "The Gambler"? The spot on the poker table where the wagered chips are placed keeps changing throughout the scene. One moment they are to the right of Hawkes' cards, and then the next moment they are to the left of his cards! And there also are one or two moments in the scene when the camera angle to the right of Hawkes shows the entire poker table and the wagered chips appear to be in two separate piles as if the two players are placing the chips they bet in separate piles which would not occur in a real poker game, because in a real poker game all wagered chips are placed in one pile in the center of the table.

Plus they would say pair of Deuces betting x dollars. Super funny movie because play is all wrong and the costume designers should all be shot for dressing these guys in 1970s/1980s clothing & hairstyles.
