The Hangover 2 Adventure Setup This adventure follows the aftermath of an insane night of booze and general f-king debauchery. The four characters—Betty, Violet, Dee, and Hannah— started out the previous evening with the greatest intentions. A few relaxed pints, lively conversation, and (if the stars aligned) a good old-fashioned bar brawl.
The Hangover’s over-the-top exaggerations are hilarious; like waking up with a tattoo on the face, or finding a live tiger in the bathroom. One of the sub-plots involves coming up with ransom cash for Doug, who is being held hostage by a gangster demanding 80k by the end of day.
Alan comes up with a plan to go counting cards in a casino because he has been reading about it. He goes on a winning spree that sets off alarm bells in the casino security. Luckily, they get the 80k before security can catch up and rescue Doug.
The Hangover is one in many films that have card counting scenes. Perhaps the most popular movie in this art is 21. In the 21 movie, a professor puts together a team of genius MIT kids who perfect counting cards as a team. The team wins big in Vegas casinos until they raise suspicion. 21 was based on a true story.
How Fast Can One Learn Card Counting?
Yes. Card counting is possible. Some people practice enough such that they have mastered different mathematical possibilities in a deck of cards. Card counters call this blackjack Basic Strategy. The strategy works perfectly when you have one deck of cards. But casinos will usually use more than one deck, which makes playing combinations more difficult to calculate.

About five years ago, Truman thought about parting with the shoes, so he provided Christie’s auction house with the details. After they came back with an estimate of $5,000, Truman put them back at the bank.

There is a lot more to learn if you want to be a competent blackjack card counter. You must master playing indices that signal a need to switch strategies. You need to master risk reduction strategies and bankroll management so as not to blow your whole cash.
You can practice all these in an online casino where you have a freer hand and more time. For all the best online casinos in the UK, take a look at https://kabono.com/ and you could try this method yourself.
In the movie, Alan learns card counting by reading a book in a few hours. This is not realistic because mastering card counting at that level requires hundreds of hours of practice.
How Easy Is It to Count Cards in a Land Casino?
It looks easy to count cards in a movie, but it is much harder in real life. There are a lot of distractions happening in a land casino. The noise from people talking, loud music and bright lights will overwhelm your concentration. Card counting is a very precise art. Losing track by missing one card invalidates your count.
It is likely that you will hesitate from time to time as you update your count. The dealer’s impatience can push you into making the wrong count. Remember, you do not want to alert the dealer that you are doing card counting.
Land casino security is very adept at picking up card counters. You will only play for sometime before you are turned away at the table. Card counting is not illegal but almost all casinos have a policy of discouraging known card counters.
However, you can practice your card counting skills on an online casino. You have more time to make your decisions. There are no distractions like in a land casino, allowing you to concentrate and do your calculations faster.

Alan counts cards in the middle of a noisy casino. Even if he had super-concentration powers, the casino security would have marked him out by the third big win.
Is it Possible to Win Huge Money in a Short Time?
In The Hangover, Alan makes about 80k in under an hour. These wins are fantastical. You would have to bet heavily to make such huge wins. Most blackjack tables pay 3:2, which means for every dollar you bet, you get 1.5 in return. To win 80k in an hour, you would need at least $20k in betting money.
You will suffer losses, no matter how good you become at card counting. Expert card counters say after practicing 500 hours of play, you can still expect to lose one hand in six. If you are playing big bets, these losses can accumulate quickly because blackjack is an all-or-nothing type of game.
In The Hangover, Alan comes to the table empty-handed and leaves with a stack of chips. To win 80k from zero would require several days of playing. It is not realistic to win such huge amounts without a substantial starter bankroll.
The Hangover is a hilarious movie, but the card counting scene is not realistic. Card counting is much more difficult to learn and do in a real land casino. If you would like to try card counting, sharpen your skills at an online casino.

The Hungover Games is a 2014 American parody film, directed by Josh Stolberg. The film's title and central plot primarily follow both The Hangover and The Hunger Games,[2] as well as parodying Ted, Pirates of the Caribbean, Avatar, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Human Centipede, The Lone Ranger, Django Unchained, Thor, Carrie, The Muppets, Borat, The Walking Dead, District 9, and The Real Housewives.
Plot[edit]
Four friends head out for a bachelor party for their friend Doug, who is marrying a man named Tracey. They plan a quiet, subdued night at a small hotel in Laughlin, Nevada. They put their friend Zach in a straitjacket and cone to ensure he does not drug them and they drink non-alcoholic beer.
Waking up the next morning, they are in a strange room littered with party and sex toys and realize that Doug is missing. A woman named 'Effing' walks in and Zach recognizes her as a remake of Effie Trinket. When Ed opens the door they find they are on a train bound for the 'Hungover Games,' a fight to the death in an arena between various Hollywood districts. The three watch a video on Zach's phone and see that they all as tribute the previous night in their drunken state. They will have to fight in the games to find Doug and get him back to his wedding in time.
At the training center they meet other tributes, including the gay Thor, Tonto, Gratuitous Nudity (two topless women), Carrie (nicknamed Scary), and Ted. Ed meets Katnip Everlean, a girl he met the previous night while drunk who likes him. Training ends and they are sent to rooms where they will ascend into the arena. While searching the rooms they see a man rising.
The games begin and the tributes begin murdering each other. Zach becomes separated from Ed and Bradley. The two flee and spend the night in a tree to sleep but witness two other tributes' deaths. They see Zach with the Careers and see he has joined them to help find (and kill) Ed and Bradley. In the morning Bradley drops a hive of 'Swaggerjacks' (wasps) onto the careers sleeping below them. In the process Bradley and Ed are stung several times and the hallucinogenic venom causes them to pass out. They awaken and find Zach has nursed them back to health and they continue searching for Doug.
Zach tells them they are in the Hungover Games because the previous night 'midnight berry' scented air-fresheners he plugged in poisoned and drugged them. The air-fresheners 'may cause transportation to futuristic dystopia.' Enraged, Ed and Bradley leave Zach.
Later, Ed and Bradley decide to reunite with Zach after the rule change stating that people who share a 'bromance' can win as a group.
The three head back to the Pornucopia after an announcement that something everyone is looking for is located there. They rush to the Pornucopia and are attacked by Carrie. Zach murders Carrie, then Ted and the two puppets attack them but Zach blows them up using his Hunger Games's book and Katnip returns and saves Ed from Ted. She reveals she was mortally wounded in her fight with Tonto and dies with Ed beside her.
When they find out that their prize at the Pornucopia is a cell phone, and not Doug, they think they will never find him and start to call Tracey tell him what's up. However, Ed realizes where Doug is and stops Bradley from making the call. Doug's tube never came up because Zach's bubble tea short-circuited his tube. After looking into it they see that Doug isn't there, but he emerges from the forest, camouflaged, and attacks them, berating them about how they always forget him and how he is almost never in the movies. They tell him they will never forget him again and that he will have more lines in the next film, and he decides to spare them.
Another rule change states that there can only be one victor and the four turn on each other. Zach proposes they all eat poisonous berries, as the creators of the games would never let them all die as they would rather have four victors than none, and would stop them before they can eat the poison. His plan fails, as they eat the berries and die with no one stopping them.
They wake up in their hotel room, realizing it was just a shared dream. The four go to the wedding where Ed laments about Katnip but runs into an identical looking girl who seems to be attracted to him.
