The mystery of Rounders is why a smart guy risks repute, not to mention life and limb, to help a dumb and self-destructive one. Still, if Rounders lacks the sardonically twisted plots and people of Dahl's best work (Red Rock West, The Last Seduction), it is, like them, well acted and atmospherically arresting.
