Description A Bouncers-style hard-hitting comedy with music in which the characters (and it seems the audience) will bet on anything. From a simple heads or tails challenge at the start all the way to the big time of a plush casino, we enjoy the highs and hit the lows with a punter who just can't resist a flutter, whatever the consequences.
