Best Behavior

When you are at a casino be sure to be on your best behavior.  Well, not always, most people come to a casino to let loose, but just stay away from any of your more criminal thoughts.  It is near impossible to get away with criminal activity in a casino these days.  I have witnessed several casino robbery attempts be foiled, and usually by the same device, the simple surveillance camera.  The casino gaming floor is usually set up with only two things in mind.  The first is to ensure that there is enough space between slot machines and table games for patrons to move comfortably about the casino even on the most crowded of days.

The other concern is that there is nothing blocking the sight lines of the cameras strategically placed all about the casino.  This concern, believe it or not takes precedence over the comfort of the guests, but that is only because the casino has something more important in mind, your safety as a customer.  There have been cases where criminals have stocked gamblers on the gaming floor looking for someone to collect a big win.  Then those people are followed home and robbed, in many cases assaulted.  The surveillance system at these casinos can act as a preventative measure if the criminals are displaying obviously shady behavior, but even if they cannot save you from the terror of being robbed, the camera will most certainly get a clear shot of the assailant and the law can easily pick them up afterwards.
