Really good episode as things start to pick up pace. I'm glad that Ike has a decent plan for getting Ben to sell his shares by stalling the gambling bill. It makes sense and is pretty believable. Stevie's fucked. It's a shame he didn't listen to his ex-girlfriend.

Whoever writes this doesn't understand gambling. 42-1 down to 9-5 in the course of a day? First off, there would never be 42-1 on a championship fight. Then it would take an absurd amount of action to bet something down from 42-1 to 9-5, particularly in a haphazard 50s environment. At least they explained that Ben (basically the book) could bet elsewhere.

Fake tits are better than Ben's dick.

There was a lot of action that day. I rolled my eyes at that bit too.
