M.I.T. Blackjack Movie

I just read "Bringing Down the House". It's the true story about how 6 M.I.T. beat Vegas for millions by counting cards playing blackjack. There is supposed to be a movie coming out. They couldn't name the movie "Bringing Down the House" because of the stupid looking Steve Martin movie. I saw a movie comercial showing a bunch of Asian kids in Vegas. I think that's the movie, but I didn't catch the movie's name. Anyone catch the name?

I really enjoyed the book. I will go see the movie. I'm still looking for the name of the movie, so I can check around and see when it's coming out. I think it was called "Win Another Day" , but nothing came up when I did a search.

I'll go see it.

Rounders was a good movie if you like that sort of thing.

You are correct, I just saw the preview on t.v. for it.

I still prefer "Oceans 11"...that will be a tough one to follow

That is the comercial I saw. It's not the movie based on "bringing Down the House" It is supposed to be a good movie though.
