Ben Campbell er en sjenert, men briljant M.I.T student. Han sliter med å finansiere studiene sine, og finner løsningen gjennom kortspill. Han rekrutteres til å være med i en gruppe av skolens mest begavede studenter som drar til Las Vegas hver helg utstyrt med falsk identitet og viten om hvordan de skal snu oddsene i Black Jack i sin favør. Med den uortodokse matteprofessoren og statistikkgeniet Micky Rosa som leder, klarer de å knekke koden. Ved å telle kort og benytte et intrikat system av tegn greier de å slå kasinoene "big time". Forført av pengene, Vegas' livsstil og hans smarte og sexy lagkamerat, Jill Taylor, begynner Ben å flytte grenser. Selv om det ikke er ulovlig å telle kort, står mye på spill og utfordringen er ikke bare å holde styr på tallene, men også hele tiden å ligge et skritt foran kasinoets truende overvåker og "vaktbikkje" Cole Williams.
