While every fan of Bond has an idea of what he represents, it’s worthwhile thinking about the key things that make 007 (so you can make sure you include them in your casino night): If you’re throwing a 007-style casino night it’s because you want to do one specific thing – bring the spirit of James Bond to a home gambling night. I’ve kept things much simpler than one of Bond’s crazy missions in this how-to – and all you need to do is read the instructions and follow the rules (unlike 007).

Knowing how to throw your own James Bond-style casino night is about understanding two things – what Bond represents, and how you can deliver on this.
