As the owner of a successful casino, Burt Donaldson makes a lot of money. It irks him that he has to give most of it to the Internal Revenue Service, so he comes up with a plan. He recruits a partner from overseas to set a complicated scheme in action. Thanks to Burt's influence, his foreign partner is about to win at Burt's casino-and win big.

This doesn't sit well with her boyfriend, who also happens to be one of Burt's vice presidents. Sure, the sex is hot, but is it all worth it in the end?
