If you like to have a beverage ever so often, leave your money out of the casino if you set out to do your drinking in a casino. I’m serious. Empty your purse, your billfold, and leave all cash, credit cards and cheques back at the hotel. Take only the cash you expect to spend on refreshments, tips and whatever pocket change you expect to lose and keep the remainder behind.
Contemptuous? Not really. Just realistic. You may well have a success after a boozy night out with your compatriots and be lucky enough to catch a marathon toss at a hot craps game. Keep that account considering that it is as short-lived as it gets if you always consume alcohol and gamble. The two just do not mix.
Keeping your money at home might be a bit excessive, but preventative measures for drastic actions is necessary. If you bet to profit, then don’t drink alcohol and bet. If you like to toss away your cash nary a concern, then drink all the gratuitous booze you are able to handle, but do not carry charge cards and checks to throw into the mix of following losses after your dead drunk head throws away all the cash!
Allow me to take this 1 step further. Don’t consume alcohol and then head on the internet to bet in your preferred casino either. I enjoy a cocktail from the coziness of my home, but because I am hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and keep credit cards at my fingertips, I can not drink alcohol and bet.
What’s the reason? Despite the fact that I don’t drink alcohol a lot, when I drink, it’s certainly adequate to befuddle my better judgment. I wager, so I don’t drink when wagering. If you are more of a drinker, don’t wager when you do. The two mix up for a ferocious, and costly, drink.
