Smokin Ace’s chronicles the talented Las Vegas performer Buddy Israel, played by Jeremy Piven, who chooses to rat out the mob to the FBI, but the mob places a sizable $1 million bounty on his head hoping to kill him before he squeals. Many different hitmen, all using their own styles, do whatever it will take to kill the double-crossing snitch. However, before Buddy Israel enters protective custody with the government, he decides to have some fun for the last time in the Lake Tahoe, Nevada casinos. The assassins, including Ben Affleck and Alicia Keys, race each other to claim the bounty by killing Buddy Isreael before the FBI can catch up and protect him.
When the sleazy magician and wannabe gangster Buddy ‘Aces’ Israel learns it is not easy to be a mob boss once the Feds have evidence against him, he chooses to turn state’s evidence instead of going to jail. A real mob boss, Primo Sparazza does not like the fact Buddy is informing the FBI about the mob’s secrets and decide the best way to deal with the snitch is to have him eliminated.
