Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The tagline isn't quite accurate, but this 1974 Robert Altman comedy is nonetheless full of gambling, gambling, and more gambling.Charlie Waters (Elliott Gould) and Bill Denny (George Segal) meet at a poker game in Los Angeles, and quickly become best friends. Together they ride the highs and (mostly) lows of cards, ponies and general hustling, ending up in Reno, Nevada, where they wander from game to game in a casino.With a witty script and excellent acting from the two leads, the film became a Sleeper Hit in 1974. It's also remembered for the innovative approach to sound mixing that Altman employed, with multiple wireless microphones fed into a mixer, a technique he would further refine on his next project, Nashville. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Bill and Charlie win $82,000 in Reno—about half a million in today's money—but Bill feels empty and hollow, which Charlie understands, and they go their separate ways. | |
