Dramatic casino heists are the subject of numerous films and novels.

There’s the whole Ocean’s Eleven franchise, and that’s just to start. Their popularity is certainly a good indicator of the level of wish-fulfillment, because while luck is all well and good, people often contemplate outsmarting the system and walking away with millions using a more direct approach.

But could you ever pull off your very own casino heist? That’s rather unlikely.

Those films are meant to be fun entertainment, and while the plans may seem high-tech and clever, there are too many factors that simply wouldn’t work in real life.  Besides, the tech would be incredibly difficult and expensive to get and let’s be honest – if you’re researching this, you probably don’t have millions to spend on gadgets.

On the other hand, you could be a tech wizard like the University of California students who built a mini-computer, hidden in a shoe, to affect Roulette spins. But even they got caught and burned their socks.

The simplest casino heists work much better in real life, like the casino employee who simply walked out with a bag of chips and was never caught. But modern surveillance is hard to evade, and all in all it’s safe to assume that most of us have to stick to skill and luck.

If you’re going to start your own humour blog, it’s a good idea to always have lots of multimedia content. This way, you not only show up on a lot of different search sites, but you will have lots of different content for your readers – and readers love nothing more than exciting new content.

If you want to start a casino humour blog, you’re in luck. It just so happens that casinos provide loads of material just for that: expect eccentric players, dramatic Poker intimidation techniques and bluffs, huge unexpected wins at the turn of a wheel and all sorts of emotional outbursts.

Better yet, casinos have lots of cameras, and while patrons are not allowed to bring their own, the casinos themselves have all sorts of great material. Ignoring the usual rule about casino secrets they even release these sometimes.

Also, casinos have quickly caught on the value of internet fame and trending memes and have once again shown their fun side by participating in Gangnam-style videos, Harlem shake and flash mobs.

Another great way to find loads of funny original stories is to encourage reader participation – after all the whole point is for everyone to share and laugh together. It’s a great way to build an online community.
