@cspanofficial: C-SPAN's "America's Book Club" — Bestselling author Ben Mezrich recounts his experiences visiting Las Vegas with the MIT Blackjack Team, who used mathematics to beat casinos at blackjack. Shadowing the team every weekend in Vegas influenced Mr. Mezrich's first non-fiction book, "Bringing Down the House." "I'd never seen kids with that kind of money, and it blew my mind," he said. "We would go to Vegas and they'd wear disguises." Watch the full interview, filmed at @cincinnatisociety, SUNDAY at 6pm and 9pm ET/PT on C-SPAN. #cspan #cspanabc #blackjack #mitblackjackteam #books #BookTok
