I think there's a movie or documentary out on the MIT Group.

I've seen it a couple of times, and can't remember what channel it was on, or the name of it. Those were some bad ass geeks that pulled that off.

I think that's the "21" movie mentioned in the article, starring Kevin Spacey. I saw the trailer for it a couple of weeks ago and it looks good.

The MIT movie was on the History Channel I believe.
That does sound good.

I read the book a few years ago ... good story. Should make a good movie.

Looks interesting.. Vegas tries to counter the card counters by using so many damn decks.. It becomes increasingly harder to count when they are using 6 damn decks...

True ... unless your dad is Sanford Babbitt and he lets you drive slow on the driveway. But not on Monday, definitely not on Monday.
