Planing a casino party, any suggestions?

I am a bartender at a local bar/grill and we are putting together a casino night and I have been told to head it up. Just wanted to get some advice.

Answer 1

1. there are companies that specialize in casino nights, have the equip., bring the dealers, etc

2. This could be a disaster, there are many considerations

a. is it for real money? if so, it could be illegal

b. if for real money, you need security. People can go crazy with gambling disputes. There is no end to the potential disputes.

c. if not for real $, then you will have to have prizes or something to keep it from being boring.
