“21” is the true story of some of the brightest young minds in the country – and how they took Vegas for millions!

Based on the book “Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions,” “21” is about Ben Campbell, a brilliant M.I.T. student who finds he can’t afford the tuition he needs and finds the answers in the cards.

He is recruited by his unorthodox math professor Micky Rosato (Kevin Spacey) to join a group of the school’s most gifted students that head to Vegas every weekend armed with fake identities and the know-how to turn the odds at blackjack in their favor. By counting cards and employing an intricate system of signals, the team has found they can beat the casinos.

A lot of the casino scenes were shot at Planet Hollywood. In fact, Jeff Ma, the real-life Ben Campbell, has a small role in the movie as a Planet Hollywood blackjack dealer.

“21″ hits stores and Amazon tomorrow, July 22nd!

    I am a strictly slots player! If I’m drinking for free, I don’t want to have to do TOO much thinking!

    I DO love to play Texas Hold ‘Em, but have never been able to get up the nerve to join a game at the casino. A little too intimidating for me …

    Thanks!!

    I’ve never been to Vegas, and I’ve only been to a casino once in my life, and while there, the only game I recall playing was Blackjack. I was lucky enough to leave with more money than I started with too, so I suppose that would have to be my favorite game.

    My favorite casino game to play online is Texas Hold Em (I seem to be obsessed with it!), but I think in person I would do better on the slots or blackjack, those are a close 2nd and 3rd.

    I think single deck blackjack is the best casino game. It has good odds and it’s fairly difficult to flub as long as you can count.
