 DVD Verdict Review - The Gambler Returns / The Gambler V
The first movie entry was The Gambler (1980) in which Rogers portrayed a gambler known as Brady Hawkes.
Beginning with the third Gambler movie (The Gambler, Part III: The Legend Continues [1987]), the plots featured a number of real historic personages whose paths would cross that of Brady Hawkes.
In The Gambler Returns, Brady has to make his way from Mexico to San Francisco guarding $100,000 which is his entry fee in what is being billed as the last poker game in America, as there is the threat of a law being passed to outlaw gambling across the country.

 Amazon.ca: DVD: Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw / The Gambler V: Playing for Keeps [IMPORT]
The Gambler Returns: Luck of the Draw (1991) has an irresistible hook: As feisty Reba McEntire partners up with Rogers's Brady Hawkes, the hoary plot features a posse of stars from classic TV Westerns, from Gene Barry's Bat Masterson to David Carradine as swift-kickin' Kwai-Chang Caine, from the '70s ABC series Kung Fu.
The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw: Kenny Rogers saddles up for his most spectacular ride as Brady Hawkes, better known as The Gambler.
Inspired by Rogers's 1978 hit song (which is replayed in each film) and beginning with The Gambler in 1980, this low-key series of two-night, four-hour broadcasts drew a majority of Rogers's loyal fans, and they hold up today as likeable showcases for Kenny and a lot of young 'n' old genre stalwarts.

As an actor, he’s best known for his role of Brady Hawkes in the 5-part mini-series THE GAMBLER.
Rogers’ success is all the more remarkable for his having been raised in a Houston public housing project with seven brothers and sisters.
Rogers has been an amateur photographer for most of his adult life, but he started taking photographs in earnest about a dozen years ago, when he moved to California with his former wife Marianne, a fashion model.
