Based on the ASU gambling scandal from the early 90's. Some elements of the movie were embellished compared to the real-life story.

Started it and turned it off it was so stupid and poorly done.  Don't waste your time.

1.5 out of 4 stars for me.

I watched it only because it was a gambling movie.

Another bad gambling movie was "Bookies"
