Bringing Down the House

Welcome to the world of a group of audacious MIT math geniuses who legally took the Las Vegas casinos for over three million dollars – and still found time for keg parties, football games, and final exams. The students were handpicked for a decades-old underground blackjack club dedicated to beating the system. While classmates worked long hours in labs and libraries, they traveled to gambling locales with hundreds of thousands of dollars from shady investors taped to their bodies. Filled with tense action and incredibly close calls, this is a real-life mix of Liar's Poker and Ocean's Eleven – and a story Vegas doesn't want you to read.
