How Many Aces?

Mike Maltese revived and revamped the old poker “I’ve got four aces/I’ve got five aces” gag. He changes the numbers to five and six. With both players cheating it’s even more ridiculous. The players in question are Bugs Bunny and Colonel Shuffle.

I really like subtle sight gag where Shuffle’s eyes give away his hand.



Note how Bugs is holding five cards but a sixth somehow appears when he spreads them out on the table.



Ken Harris, Lloyd Vaughan, Ben Washam and Phil Monroe are Chuck Jones’ animation crew in “Mississippi Hare.”
