Synopsis

Michael MacKensie and Sarah Wilinski travel from Atlantic City to Cape May to the Bahamas and back again trying to take themselves seriously and to make their world real through work and love. Through MacKensie's position as advisor to an Atlantic City investor, and through his own turn at the blackjack tables, this philosophical, touching, and sensual narrative lends perspective to the place of gaming in the world. Set in the years of Atlantic City's dominance, just before the proliferation of casinos on the East Coast, All Bets Down is first and foremost a thoughtful and provocative love story.
