Right. I saw that. And, re the above, I doubt casinos used Bicycle cards then, and, of course, there were no readers.

Also, when Thorp played his first big hand, the guy to his left broke, and his cards were scooped up. Next thing we see, the dealer is breaking, saying "Everybody wins," and paying not only Thorp but the guy who broke, whose hand has been mysteriously resurrected. Bad job of editing.
