You Never Count Your Money When You're Sitting At The Table (Gambling Movies)

Send us Fan MailThis week, Ken and Andy ante up for a trio of gambling flicks that run the table on chaos, charm, and questionable decision-making. First, they revisit the laid-back frontier wisdom of Kenny Rogers in The Gambler, then sprint to the racetrack for Richard Dreyfuss’ wild lucky streak in Let It Ride, and finally descend into the smoky neon underworld of PTA’s debut neo-crime drama Hard Eight. From old-school saloon poker to manic horse-betting superstition to Reno’s quiet desperation, the guys break down what hits the jackpot—and what belongs in the discard pile. As always, they’ll finish by deciding whether each movie deserves a Pass, a Pirate, or a Pay. Check us out at www.passpiratepay.com
