When a woman winds up floating in the pool at a swanky fundraiser with many local VIPs, the CSIs investigate, but must tread lightly for political reasons, though there is also pressure for a quick solution for the same reasons. The owner of the house where the fundraiser was held is out of town, and suspicions falls on the hosts of the party, a couple who is house-sitting for her. Warrick is sent to look into an apparent mob-style hit, where the victim, shot in the forehead in a hotel's glass elevator, was left with a quarter covering the entry wound.

Title: Table Stakes
Table Stakes is a poker term, usually referring to a rule about when money can be brought to the table for use in a game. The most common interpretation is that one cannot increase the money you are holding on the table in the middle of a hand, and can only remove money if you are quitting completely.
