Later, the crooked player is found murdered. The local sheriff suspects that Jose is the killer but also keeps a close eye on Tim. While fighting to avoid arrest, Madigan struggles to save the Hernandez ranch from the creditors. Tim McCoy was a superstar of cowboy films In the '20s and '30s, appearing in scores of early Westerns for MGM and smaller studios.

Card Sharks Beware
Movie Lover: John Walter from Middle Village, NY US -- February, 5, 2009
Tim McCoy, dressed in a large black hat and a long black coat, plays a Gentleman gambler in this rather interesting western. He never carries a gun, has amazingly strong hands (tearing a deck of cards into quarters is no slight trick), seems to win every hand of poker he's dealt, rids the Nevava-California border area of card cheats, clears his own name. and
and probably gets the lovely senorita at the conclusion of this short 1936 film.
Great Western
Movie Lover: bob rutan from New York CIty, NY US -- May, 28, 2005
Tim McCoy was an icon of the 1930's B-Westerns. It is said that he and Bob Steele were the two fastest draws in the business. McCoy had originally started in Hollywood as a consultant on films, having had a wide knowledge of Western customs and habits. As a result there is a realism to his films often missing from others of the era. He was also a very different type of hero: no nonsense, no flash and with an inteeligent, dry wit. There are definate influnences on the CLint Eastwood character that come from McCoy. This is a truly marvellous McCoy film, showing the star at his best.
