ThisAmericanLife: This Week -> BLACKJACK feat. Andy Bloch
I fully enjoyed this weeks episode! hf

This Week
Blackjack
Broadcast: Jun-8-12
Stories about the casino game everyone thinks they can beat. In one, a woman gambles away her inheritance and then sues the casino, saying they're to blame. In another, Christians join forces to take down casinos — by becoming professional card-counting blackjack players. Plus: MIT Blackjack Team member Andy Bloch teaches us to count cards.

Haven't listened to it, but I read about a Christian card counting team in The San Diego reader...might be the same team that is covered in this episode. Was an interesting read nonetheless. On my phone, so can't post a direct link, but the url is http://www.sandiegoreader.com/news/2...card-counters/

Well, I guess it did post a direct link...
