The story of the MIT blackjack team began in 1980's when a group of post-graduated students of Massachusetts Institute of Technology decided to use their knowledge for making money out of blackjack.
Their main secrets of success were card counting and team play: in 1990's they were able to win millions of dollars and be banned out of many casinos but, anyway, continued to use a disguise for being able to play blackjack.
One of the MIT team members, Ben Mezrich, had written the book Bringing Down the House which became a national bestseller and was used as a basement for such entertaining blackjack movies as 21 and The Last Casino.
Although blackjack is a very complicated game, it is often presented in the entertaining movies. Read to know what films deserves your attention!
