A real-life underdog tale of one man turning the tables on the casinos and Wall Street without selling his soul to the devil All around the world, the words “Wall Street” conjure up a powerful image. For some, it is the center of America’s capitalist system and the engine of its economic growth. For others, it is the home of rapacious bankers and reckless traders whose greed would lead to a global financial crisis. For an Indian-born blackjack player, Wall Street represented something else entirely — a chance for him to play in the largest casino in the world. Kamal Gupta’s improbable journey, from a wide-eyed Indian immigrant to an ultimate insider in the rarefied world of investment banks and hedge funds, is a uniquely American story. Nowhere else would it have been possible for a scrawny computer scientist to enter the world of high finance solely on the basis of his gambling abilities. After spending seven years creating an investment methodology, Gupta went on an incredible run, generating an unprecedented 103 consecutive months of positive returns while managing money at large hedge funds. His success did not go unnoticed, and he found himself under constant pressure to take bigger risks to make even more money. He refused and always played it right, knowing that there was such a thing as “enough” money, something very few, if any, of his Wall Street peers understood. Much like Maria Konnikova’s bestseller, The Biggest Bluff, Play It Right isn’t so much about money as it is about the human condition and beating the odds, whether at a casino, on Wall Street, or in life itself.

Ajax Easton is a Tony Award-winning playwright used to getting his way. The playwright rules supreme on the Broadway stage and his latest play The End of Love is set to be another hit. Georgia Madrid is one of the hottest actresses in Hollywood. She’s just won an Oscar but doesn’t believe she’s taken seriously. Her manager recommends the theater and specifically Ajax’s play. Georgia’s not interested. She hates the theater, but she fears becoming overplayed in Hollywood. Ajax is a theater snob and doesn’t think a screen actress is right for the role, except Georgia is his muse. He’s harbored a secret crush on her for years and the prospect of meeting her pushes him to agree. Big personalities overrule mutual attraction. Sparks combust into fireworks and lovers become enemies before they realize they couldn’t be a more perfect fit. This is a steamy contemporary insta-love romantic comedy with an older playwright and his younger leading lady who fall madly in love but keep fumbling their way to their happily ever after.
