I just watched it too, last night... Pretty good flic...

Based on a true story... I dont know if it all played out like thatr, but there was an MIT card counting team that took some casinos... Im just not sure about the ending twist...

I watched drillbit taylor too, decently comical...

I just watched that movie Friday night and it pissed me off to no end. I actually wanted to stop it because it was getting me so worked up. They had a good scheme going, but they were also taking horribly stupid chances and should have been caught long before they were.

The MIT team hit before the bigger innovations to catch on to card counters... just like all through the film they talk about the oncoming gaming surveillance that zeros in on offenders...

im sure the real time was much more subtle than these actors...

nonetheless, card counting is very real...

It's a good movie indeed and yes I'm pretty sure there are skilled card counters.

With proper training and enough practice just about anyone with an above average IQ should be able to do it.

As a magician I assure you card counting is real.

Also, read the book. It's SO much better than the film.

I was actually talking about stupid shit like hiding $300k in your dorm room ceiling. As well as the very obvious way they kept staring at each other in the casinos. Drove me nuts!

well, like I said, I'm sure that the real team was much more subtle...

I'm sure the money suggling and eye balling was all in the eye or the producer... they are actors...

Perhaps my mistake is mixing your view on the movie for the real players...

either way, I liked the movie...

Bringing Down The House is a great story, but if you want to read an amazing blackjack story try to find Busting Vegas by the same author, which features another team from MIT that used techniques on a whole new level, way more complex than counting.

I thought it was going to be a stupid movie about teens getting rich.......and since the trailers/commercials made it look really stupid ... I didn't really have high expectations of it... but well.... it turned out to be quite good
