NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Double Down" - That's So Random

In "Double Down," three college students attempt to get an edge in a casino card game by analyzing the mechanical randomization process used to shuffle the cards. As Charlie explains, the auto-shuffler relies on an algorithm to deal the cards in random order. The students are able to crack the al...
