A not-so-elaborate heist was broken up at the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas over the weekend shortly after it began. Michael Belton, 24, was tackled by two casino employees moments after he grabbed a stack of chips from the Blackjack table.

The plan, was for Belton to steal as many $5000 chips from the high-rollers table as possible. A man, identified only as Carlos, would distract the dealer by spraying pepper-spray in his face. Belton was then to bring the chips to Carlos Rodriguez, the mastermind behind the scheme, who would then cash in the chips.

Well, shortly after Carlos #1 sprayed the dealer with pepper spray, both men were tackled by security guards.

Belton managed to grab 23 $5000 chips. But he was only able to make it a few steps away from the Blackjack table.

The 24-year-old told police that he had met Carlos Rodriguez through Craigslist and had agreed to the heist because he was broke and unemployed. Police said that a Carlos Rodriguez was checked into the Mandalay Bay hotel but police have not been able to track him down yet.

The attempted robbery comes 18 months after the infamous â€œBiker Banditâ€ walked off with $1.5 million in Bellagio chips before escaping on a motorcycle, only to be arrested when he tried to sell the $25,000 â€œcranberryâ€ chips on the 2+2 forums and was eventually caught by undercover police.

There is seriously no point in trying to rob a casino.

Bill Brennan and the Stardust Heist
Bill Brennan, a cashier at the Stardust Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, executed a particularly audacious casino heist in 1992. Brennan sidestepped the casinoâ€™s security by simply packing his rucksack with $500,000 in banknotes and casino chips. He then left for his lunch break with the bag over his shoulder and was never seen again.
