Cincinnati Kid
Steve McQueen vs. The Man (Lancey Howard) - should he choose hot Ann-Margret or try to be at and become The Man? If you haven't seen it, see this modern classic.
But what about the game they were playing. Five card stud has been eclipsed by the Hold'Em craze, but for many this is the purest mano-a-mano money game. I've been wondering about good strategies for Five Card Stud, especially the Dynamite version (high-low declare, card buys allowed on 5th Street).
So this is what I've found. And I think declare sucks, cards speak is way better for scoopers like me.
