Cincinnati Kid

The Cincinnati Kid is a 1965 film which tells the story of Eric Stoner, a young an up-and-coming poker player known as the "Cincinnati Kid" who is looking to establish himself as the best poker player around. In order to accomplish this, he challenges Lancey "The Man" Howard, an older player who is widely considered to be the best. Their battle culminates in a climactic final hand at the end of the movie.

ok, so in the final hand Fingers came along and substituted for the dealer. then steve mcqueen is dealt a full house and the "Man" is dealt a queen high straight flush, doesnt that seem like fingers was cheating.also, if you read the book it seems that the point of the story is that steve mcqueen was never going to beat the Man, it was fate that he was going to loose to him. He was only always going to be second best.
