ROBIN HOOD MEETS THE RAT PACK when the best and the brightest of M.I.T.'s math students and engineers take up blackjack under the gutdance of an eccentric mastermind. Their small blackjack club develops from an experiment in counting cards on M.I.T.'s campus into a ring of card savants with a system for playing large and winning big. In ess than two years they take some of the world's most sophisti-cated casinos for more than three million dollars. But their success also brings with it the formidable ire of casino owners and launches them into the seedy underworld of corporate Vegas with its private investiga-tors and other via lent heavies.
Filled with tense action, high stakes, and incredibly close calls,Bringing Down the House is a nail-biting read that chronicles a real-life Ocean's Eleven. It's one story that Vegas does notwant you to read.
