Zuzana Designs · 07-26-2008, 10:49 PM

It was pretty good. I wish I could count cards like that mofo

All in all a movie worth watching...

Deej · 07-26-2008, 10:52 PM

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...

skrog · 07-26-2008, 10:57 PM

Go watch Step Brothers! That shit is really funny.

Monique Niccole · 07-26-2008, 10:58 PM

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.

stickyfingerz · 07-26-2008, 11:01 PM

Watched it this morning. There was another movie about the same story like in late 90's or early to mid 2000's Fuck all if I can remember the name of it though. lol

flowereater · 07-27-2008, 12:48 AM

i love that flick too. amazing how they count those cards, is it for real?

uno · 07-27-2008, 01:31 AM

I saw that in theaters. I really liked it.

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.

Violetta · 07-28-2008, 05:10 AM

yeah, I saw it 2 weeks ago. It was good!

DamianJ · 07-28-2008, 05:19 AM

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!

the real kids got very very cocky when they started winning and got money rolling in

i havent seen the movie yet but seen a few documentries on them

tranza · 07-28-2008, 06:04 AM

I watched it last week...good movie!

Manowar · 07-28-2008, 06:39 AM

does card counting still exist in any way/shape/form?

Miguel T · 07-28-2008, 06:45 AM

It was one hell of a movie! Really good!

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...

Michaelious · 07-28-2008, 03:41 PM

Although all the original hustlers were Asian so they changed that in the movie.

fuzebox · 07-28-2008, 04:59 PM

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.

raven1083 · 07-28-2008, 05:00 PM

I've heard so much from that movie and going to watch it soon!

maalox · 07-29-2008, 10:41 AM

Saw it sunday night very good movie!

qxm · 07-29-2008, 10:52 AM

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

WebairGerard · 07-29-2008, 10:56 AM

I will be checking this one out soon too. the book was very good.

pornguy · 07-29-2008, 11:03 AM

Its real, and its not that hard. Just takes some practice. When I was younger I did a fair job on 3 decks. I think in vegas they use 5???

klaze · 07-29-2008, 11:05 AM

That movie went to DVD sooooo fast.
