If you enjoy having a a cocktail occasionally, leave your money out of the casino if you are going to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Clean out your pocketbook, your money belt, and leave all cash, charge cards and cheques out of the casino. Take whatever cash you expect to spend on alcohol, tips and only the pocket change you expect to throw away and keep the rest behind.
Pessimistic? Not really. Just realistic. You might have a win after a inebriated night out with your friends and be blessed sufficiently to catch a marathon roll at a hot craps game. Keep that adventure considering that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you continually consume alcohol and wager. The two just do not mix.
Keeping your moola back at the hotel is a tiny bit drastic, but precautionary measures for dramatic behavior is compulsory. If you gamble to succeed, then do not consume alcohol and bet. If you like to burn your money without a worry, then consume all the gratis booze your stomach are able to handle, but do not carry plastic credit and checkbooks to toss into the mix of chasing squanderings after your dead drunk brain loses everything!
Allow me to take this a single step further. Don’t drink and then jump on the net to gamble in your favorite casino either. I love to beverage from the comfort of my condo, but seeing that I am hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and have credit cards in close proximity, I can’t drink alcohol and bet.
What’s the reason? Despite the fact that I do not consume alcohol to excess, once I drink, it’s clearly enough to befuddle my judgment. I gamble, so I don’t drink alcohol when betting. If you are a drinker, do not wager at the same time. Both make for a ferocious, and crazy, drink.
