Alex (Harrison) taught himself poker via online tournaments and he attracts the attention of retired pro Tommy (Reynolds), who offers to teach Alex the details that will get him into big money games. When Alex hits the World Poker Tournament in Vegas, their partnership falters and Tommy winds up across the table from his former protege. Reynolds projects the right air of world-weariness but Harrison is too callow a foil and there's nothing about the plot that'll be a surprise.
