I truly think Connery was the best card player.

Given the skill involved in Hold 'em I would say Daniel Craig's Bond is the best card player

Timothy Dalton! he played black jack in Sanchez's casino and took a sizeable chunk of his 'drug' money in the process. if i remember right, he won $500,000 in the typical sarcastic and serious Dalton way.

That's an easy one -- Roger Moore. In FYEO, he manages to beat Bunky's 8 with a 5, with the dealer calling it a 9 -- we should all be so good!

Anyone else think the fat guy at the table talking to Countess Lisl was a homage to Le Chiffre ? He looked alot like Le Chiffre in the book.

It's possible.
Based on films alone, Brosnan would be average, George knows his way around the table, Moore is average, and Dalton wins an enormous sum. Connery never loses. Ever.
Largo: "Eiiiiiigggggghhhttt."
Bond (flippantly): "Nine."

Based on skill and the type of game he's playing, it's got to be Craig. He's playing Texas hold'em, Dalton is playing Blackjack - a child's parlour game by comparison. Moore looks lost, but get's a shag afterwards and George is still learning to act. Although he does bail out Tracy and gets a shag in return, so fair do's, he's on the right track . Connery manages to take the winnings, and Shag the girl, and run out on her quickly. So Connery by a mile!
