If you like to have a cocktail ever so often, keep your money out of the casino if you are going to do your consuming in a casino. I’m serious. Clean out your handbag, your billfold, and leave all money, charge cards and checks out of the casino. Take only the cash you anticipate to use on alcohol, tipping and whatever pocket change you intend to squander and leave the remainder behind.
Contemptuous? Not by any means. Just realistic. You can have a profit after a inebriated night out with your acquaintances and be lucky sufficiently to catch a long roll at a hot craps table. Don’t forget that account seeing that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you always drink alcohol and bet. The pair just do not mix.
Keeping your moolah out of the casino is a bit drastic, but preventative measures for excessive behavior is compulsory. If you play to succeed, then do not consume alcohol and play. If you are able to afford to burn your cash without a worry, then consume all the free beer you are able to handle, but do not carry credit cards and cheques to toss into the mix of chasing losses after your drunk as a skunk head loses every little thing!
Permit me to take this one step more. Don’t drink alcohol and then go on the internet to bet in your favorite casino either. I love to cocktail from the comfort of my condo, but since I am hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and keep charge cards at my fingertips, I can not consume alcohol and wager.
Why? Although I do not drink to excess, when I consume alcohol, it is absolutely adequate to blur my better judgment. I wager, so I do not drink when betting. If you are more of a drinker, don’t bet when you do. The two mix up for an awful, and costly, drink.
