Xmas in Las Vegas is the story of Edward T. Wellspot, a professional gambler who comes to the Olympus Hotel and Casino each Christmas, hoping to beat the house. This year Edward has more problems than usual. He's on the biggest losing streak of his life and his family is more dysfunctional than ever. All seems hopeless until he meets the mysterious Mrs. Periapt, who has the Midas touch. Suddenly, the world is Edward's oyster-or so it seems.
