Brad Mezrich, Bringing Down the House

Bringing Down the House is a fun book. Mezrich tells the inside story of Kevin Lewis, an MIT student who joins a secret group of card counters who travel from casino to casino plying their trade. Mezrich details the basics of how team play works and narrates the ups and downs as the team becomes more successful and is finally detected by a group of Vegas casinos. It is a light read, but it takes you deep into the gambling world.
