When Scott and Kate Johansen’s daughter gets into the college of her dreams it’s cause for celebration.

With the help of their friend and neighbor Frank (Jason Mantzoukas) — also in need of a major payday — they decide to open an illegal casino in his suburban house, risking everything together on a Vegas-style bacchanal where money flows, inhibitions are checked at the door, and all bets are off.
