This book was not as good as his first book "Bringing down the House" or as it was known after the movie "21". The story follows the same storyline as 21. MIT students learn how to beat blackjack, go to Vegas and make millions then everything goes bad..etc etc.
The only difference is that in this story the students are not card counters but have learned a new technique that requires them seeing the bottom card of the deck and cutting to it. Then either getting the card dealt to them if it is an ace or giving it to the dealer if it is a ten. The techniques are never really explained and are a little bit harder to follow then the card counting technique. The story is pretty good.
