Who Are The Most Famous Casino Criminals?

March 22, 2022 by admin

Over decades, criminals have found innovative ways to pull the wool over casinos’ eyes and then walk away with big winnings. Though not all were able to pull off their stunts for long, some famous casino criminals did manage to walk away with millions of dollars for a long time.

Perhaps it’s the flashing lights, the discordant cacophony of sounds, or the massive amounts of money that exchanges hands on a daily basis, but land-based casinos often bear the brunt of player frustration when it comes to losing. However, the perpetrators soon realise that crime and casinos don’t really mix and anyone who has ever felt tempted to take out their frustrations on fellow players or casino staff or property would be wise to remember that there is generally a decent sized team of burly men tasked with keeping the casino floor safe at all times.
