Casino Royale is a classic James Bond film that perfectly captures the challenge and luxury of playing poker in a leading casino. The poker action takes place in a casino in Montenegro and viewers are invited to see the nerves of steel that are required in order to play for very high stakes, as well as the possible consequences of being overly confident. Daniel Craig steps into the shoes of Mr Bond in this movie, which takes viewers back to 007’s first epic mission.

The skill involved in playing blackjack and the consequences that anyone risks if they try to beat the house by counting cards is captured to impressive effect in the movie 21. The movie is based on the true story of a group of six MIT students who hone their card counting skills to win millions of dollars.

People who fancy themselves as a bit of a con artist and want to know what it would feel like to take on the house are sure to love Ocean’s Eleven. The 2001 remake of this movie features a star studded cast including George Clooney and Brad Pitt and takes viewers behind the scenes of a prominent Las Vegas casino.
