Do Not Have an Alcoholic Beverage … Gamble!
If you enjoy having a a beer ever so often, leave your cash at home if you are going to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Leave your handbag, your money belt, and keep all money, plastic credit and checkbooks out of the casino. Only take only the cash you intend to use on drinks, tipping and only the pocket change you anticipate to burn and keep the remainder behind.
Cynical? Not at all. Realistic more like. You might experience a profit after a inebriated evening out with your friends and be blessed sufficiently to hook a marathon toss at a smokin craps game. Hang on to that story because it is as brief as it gets if you consistently consume alcohol and gamble. The two just don’t mix.
Leaving your money back at the hotel might be a bit drastic, but precautionary actions for dramatic behavior is required. If you wager to profit, then do not consume alcohol and bet. If you are able to afford to burn your money nary a worry, then drink all the gratuitous alcohol you can handle, but do not pack credit cards and checkbooks to throw into the mix of following losses after your dead drunk brain throws away everything!
Let me to carry this one step further. Don’t consume alcohol and then jump on to the internet to gamble in your best-liked online casino either. I enjoy a beverage from the comfort of my house, but because I am connected through Neteller, Firepay and have charge cards in close proximity, I can’t drink and gamble.
Why? Although I do not drink alcohol a lot, when I drink alcohol, it is definitely sufficient to cloud my better judgment. I gamble, so I don’t drink alcohol when gambling. If you are more of a drinker, do not gamble when you do. The two mix up for a ferocious, and costly, cocktail.
