Synopsis: Bernie (William H. Macy) was once a troubled gambler with a big tab at the Shangri-La casino run by his friend Shelly (Alec Baldwin). Shelly covered Bernie's debts, kneecapped him and made him work the floor of the Shangri-La as the casino's "cooler" -- a specialist in killing winning streaks. Bernie is close to fulfilling his debt when he meets Natalie (Maria Bello), a new cocktail waitress. Soon Bernie's in love and can't wait to leave Vegas with the woman of his dreams. But Shelly can't afford to lose him, especially since Larry Sokolov (Ron Livingston) arrived to modernize the "old school" casino. Then, when Bernie's estranged son Mikey (Sean Hatosy) rolls into town with his pregnant girlfriend (Estella Warren), Mikey cons $3,000 from dad and is then caught cheating at craps. With Mikey's life on the line, Shelly knows he has Bernie right back where he wants him.
