currently my favourite quote from any film... When Eddie says:

"How much am I gonna win tonight? Ten grand. I'm gonna win ten grand in one night... Well who's gonna beat me?"

You can find it on this YouTube video at 0:40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj5Egv0GYG4

This film has a plethora of great lines. One of the finest screenplays in cinema history by Robert Rossen.

"Well who's gonna beat me?"

And the person in the first match up who beats Fast Eddie is Fast Eddie.

The exchange between Bert and Eddie in the bar is probably my favorite dialog in the movie. Some many good lines and deliveries, and quotes there.
