Bill Denny es (George Segal) un escritor que se toma el juego muy seriamente. Charlie Waters (Elliot Gould) es un personaje despreocupado que antepone el juego a todo lo demás. Ganen o pierdan (y suelen perder), Denny y Waters reaccionan de manera diferente. Cuando ambos llegan a conocerse en un garito de Los Ángeles, sus contrastadas personalidades encajan a la perfección, y de común acuerdo se constituyen en equipo dispuestos a ir a por todas.

    One of the most impressive things about the film is how Altman manages to make a movie about gambling that never feels like a pedantic moral story but also avoids feeling like a glorification of the lifestyle. From the relationships to the casinos and apartments, everything feels so lived-in so to speak. California Split feels like a slice of life film centered around two very interesting friends who happen to also be degenerate gamblers. The gambling is just one of their many vices and one of the many idiosyncracies which make up their characters. They're hopeless romantics looking to live their lives with the same sort of intent in which they approach the roulette table. They capture the irreverent unrepentant giddiness of youth while in constant battle with the harsh realities of life and pull from the the cold, monotonous arm of adulthood. Thus, Altman's film feels like an extension of that motif. It has the languid cool of a road movie, the groundedness of a slice of life and the emotional turmoil of a true drama.
