Item Description

Did you see the movie "21" or the History Channel's "Breaking Vegas," about the phenomenal success of the M.I.T. Blackjack team?  Here's your chance to hear true confessions from Lexington residents Deborah Lapides and Henry Houh, two of the card counters who made the casinos quake.  This is the real deal from an insider's point of view that you will never hear anywhere else.

Gather up to thirty of your friends for this unforgettable blackjack party.  Deborah Lapides and Henry Houh will arrive with cards, chips and instructional materials to demonstrate how a game of "21" is played, show you some techniques not shown in the movie and regale you with true stories of life as a high roller in Las Vegas and Atlantic City.  Deborah and Henry will demystify card counting by teaching you and your friends how to do it using the same methods the team used to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars.

An autographed copy of the book "Bringing Down the House," a DVD of "21" autographed by Henry Houh who appeared in the movie, and DVD of the History Channel's "Breaking Vegas" are included in this exceptionally rare package. 

Of course, no party is complete without food and drink so make your evening complete with gift cards from Neillio's Gourmet Kitchen & Catering and Busa Wine and Spirits.
