@Ironman Max giving Jackie three different numbers just shows how much he is falling for her, no other purpose that I'm aware of.

Another loose end is how could Jackie possibly gamble of Ordell being killed. Make no mistake, she absolutely needed him dead, because if he was arrested and interrogated, he might have spilled the beans about the half million, and then JB would have been on the hook for some kind of crime for sure. But what if cops did hesitate, and did not kill Ordell, what then?

Yep. This is one of the plot's rough edges. You just have to accept it.

If the feds didn’t kill Ordell then she would have and claimed self-defense. She was armed after all.

Ordell is a tough dumb criminal, Melanie said herself that he boasts more than what he actually is.
Even Mr Walker wanted nothing to do with him.

It ain't Ordell that's dumb, look in the mirror pal. The lust for lots of money has a definite effect on human beings whereby a momentary tossing of caution to the wind is totally believable within the confines of the structure of the picture.

He read Max well, and realized that Max was telling the truth, which he was, so he went in. What he didn't considered at the time was that Max was lied to as well by Jackie!

Louis is really the only dumb character in the movie. Everyone else in the movie has the smarts to figure out the angle, as more cards are revealed.
