Wild Cards - S2-E20

Other mistake: All players' cards were dealt face down in the blackjack game. At one point, the dealer pulled a 20 and immediately collected everyone's chips. The dealer couldn't have known that he beat all players at the table with a 20 when he couldn't see anyone's hand.

Wild Cards - S2-E20

Factual error: In the show, the blackjack players are dealt two cards face down and don't show their hand to the dealer until they either make a hand or bust. In reality, blackjack players in Atlantic City are dealt both cards face up and are never allowed to handle the cards for any reason. If both cards were dealt face down and handled by the players, there would be a strong opportunity for cheating. In addition, if their math wasn't adequate, they might take extra cards that they shouldn't have been dealt.

Soft Touch - S2-E22

Revealing mistake: When Carrie is trying to park, the position of the shadows on the ground is changing drastically between shots. This cannot be attributed to it taking Carrie a long time to park, as the shadows move forward and back. (00:02:00)
