If you like to have a beer occasionally, keep your money out of the casino if you plan to do your drinking in a casino. I’m serious. Clean out your purse, your wallet, and leave all money, plastic credit and cheques back at the hotel. Only take only the cash you expect to spend on drinks, tips and whatever pocket change you anticipate to squander and keep the rest behind.
Contemptuous? Not really. Just realistic. You might have a win following a intoxicated night out with your comrades and be lucky enough to hook a long toss at a on fire craps game. Hang on to that account considering that it’s as brief as it gets if you consistently consume alcohol and gamble. The two simply don’t go well together.
Keeping your moolah out of the casino is a bit excessive, but preventative measures for dramatic behavior is necessary. If you bet to profit, then do not drink and gamble. If you are able to afford to blow your $$$$ without a worry, then drink all the free alcohol your stomach can handle, but don’t take charge cards and cheques to toss into the mix of going after squanderings after your inebriated self throws away every little thing!
Allow me to take this 1 step further. Don’t drink alcohol and then jump on the web to bet in your favorite casino either. I enjoy a beer from the comfort of my condo, but because I am hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and have charge cards at my fingertips, I can’t drink alcohol and bet.
How come? Despite the fact that I do not consume alcohol to excess, when I drink alcohol, it is absolutely adequate to cloud my common sense. I wager, so I don’t drink when wagering. If you are more of a drinker, don’t bet when you do. Both make for a decimating, and crazy, cocktail.
