Again, for my latest read, I reached into my box of books that had been abandoned. I had borrowed this book from my sister-in-law several years ago. Before I had kids even! I'm glad I picked it up...it was a very interesting read. The book is labeled as non-fiction, but there is a disclaimer in the book saying names and certain details were changed. That leads me to believe that this is more of a dramatization of actual events.The story is about a group of MIT students who were skilled in card counting and won large amounts of money from Las Vegas (and other) casinos. The book was a fast read- it only took me a few hours, and whether or not all the stories were true...well, it was still pretty interesting. Now I'd like to see the movie 21, which is based on this book.
