Synopsis for
Smokin' Aces (2006)

Buddy "Aces" Israel, (Jeremy Piven), is a self-indulgent headliner magician at the MGM's main ballroom who grew up inside the Las Vegas mob, headed by mob boss, Primo Sparazza (Joseph Ruskin). "Aces" is a wannabe gangster who believes he has the brains to start his own gang and become his own mob boss. This move doesn't sit well with the real mob boss, who places a $1,000,000 contract on "Aces". When the contract hits the street, it brings out all sorts of psychopathic killers from around the country. "Aces" needs protection, so he is willing to turn state's evidence against the mob in return for witness protection and not going to prison. In the meantime, "Aces" is having a party with 5 prostitutes in the penthouse suite of the Nomad Casino in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. "Ace's" location must be an open secret, because all the hit men ascend to Lake Tahoe and converge on the penthouse to cash in on a big payday. Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)
