If you enjoy having a a cocktail from time to time, keep your money out of the casino if you plan to do your drinking in a casino. I am serious. Leave your purse, your wallet, and leave all cash, credit cards and chequebooks out of the casino. Take only the money you expect to spend on alcohol, tips and few dollars you intend to squander and leave the rest behind.
Contemptuous? Not at all. Just realistic. You may well experience a success after a intoxicated night out with your friends and be lucky enough to catch a marathon roll at a hot craps table. Hang on to that adventure considering that it’s as brief as it gets if you consistently drink and bet. The two just don’t go well together.
Leaving your money back at the hotel might be a bit drastic, but preventative measures for dramatic actions is required. If you play to profit, then do not drink and play. If you like to be wasteful with your cash without a worry, then drink all the gratuitous booze your stomach can handle, but don’t carry credit cards and checks to throw into the mix of following squanderings after your dead drunk brain loses every little thing!
Allow me to take this one step more. do not consume alcohol and then hop on to the internet to bet in your preferred online casino either. I love to beverage from the comfort of my apartment, but seeing that I am linked up through Neteller, Firepay and have charge cards in close proximity, I can not consume alcohol and wager.
How come? Even though I do not consume alcohol to excess, once I drink alcohol, it is absolutely adequate to blur my common sense. I wager, so I do not drink when wagering. If you are a drinker, don’t wager at the same time. Both make for a dangerous, and expensive, cocktail.
