best poker seen in a movie you have seen..

[gametime74]

i was watching casino royale last night and watch james bond take down a 140 million dollar pot with a straight flush..and it made me wonder what is the best poker event you seen in a movie, i like rounders as complete poker movie, but that scene with bond killing the whole table with the str8 flush was awesome...

Rounders is the only movie I've ever heard of that's even about poker. There are poker scenes in other movies but Rounders is the only one I've actually seen that focuses on poker so I say ROUNDERS.
