Don’t Drink … Play!
If you enjoy having a a beer every so often, keep your cash at home if you set out to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Clean out your handbag, your money belt, and keep all money, charge cards and checkbooks back at the hotel. Take whatever cash you expect to use on drinks, tipping and only the pocket change you anticipate to squander and leave the remainder behind.
Cynical? Not really. Just realistic. You may well have a profit after a drunken night out with your compatriots and be blessed sufficiently to hook a 25 minute roll at a hot craps game. Hang on to that account because it is as short-lived as it gets if you continually consume alcohol and wager. The pair just do not mix.
Keeping your moola out of the casino is a little bit drastic, but preventative measures for excessive actions is required. If you gamble to profit, then do not drink alcohol and gamble. If you are able to afford to be wasteful with your $$$$ without a worry, then consume all the no charge alcohol your stomach are able to handle, but do not pack charge cards and checkbooks to toss into the mix of following losses after your drunk as a skunk brain squanders every little thing!
Let me to take this one step more. Don’t drink and then hop online to play in your favorite online casino either. I enjoy a beer from the comfort of my home, but because I’m hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and have charge cards at my fingertips, I can not drink and bet.
How come? Even though I don’t drink alcohol to excess, once I drink alcohol, it is definitely sufficient to befuddle my common sense. I wager, so I don’t drink alcohol when wagering. If you are a drinker, do not wager when you do. Both make for an awful, and expensive, cocktail.
