Anyone read “Bringing down the House”

I picked it up last night and couldn’t put it down, finished it today. A fascinating true life story about some MIT geeks who took Vegas for Millions.

Anyone else here read it?

Anyone actually use the method and try to count cards?

why do you think it was poorly written, most people have said the opposite.

I read in detail about this in Wired a couple of years ago. I wonder if the same guy wrote it.
