Accomplished gambler Sam "Ace" Rothstein (Robert De Niro), who plays by the rules, enters the mob-controlled Las Vegas scene in the 1970s when he becomes an operator of the Tangiers Casino.

Now, Las Vegas hustler Ginger McKenna (Sharon Stone) becomes part of their lives when Ace falls in love with her.
