If you like to have a cocktail every once in a while, leave your money out of the casino if you plan to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Empty your purse, your billfold, and keep all money, credit cards and checks at home. Take only the money you anticipate to spend on refreshments, tips and only the pocket change you expect to lose and leave the rest behind.

Cynical? Not at all. Just realistic. You can experience a profit after a intoxicated night out with your buddies and be lucky enough to hit a marathon roll at a on fire craps game. Keep that story considering that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you regularly drink and bet. The pair just don’t mix.

Leaving your cash back at the hotel is a bit drastic, but preventative actions for drastic actions is a requirement. If you play to win, then don’t consume alcohol and play. If you are able to afford to burn your cash without a concern, then drink all the no charge alcohol your stomach are able to handle, but do not carry charge cards and chequebooks to throw into the mix of going after losses after your drunk as a skunk head throws away every little thing!

Let me to take this one step further. Don’t drink alcohol and then jump online to wager in your best-liked casino either. I enjoy a beer from the coziness of my apartment, but seeing that I am hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and have credit cards near by, I can not drink and wager.

Why? Despite the fact that I don’t drink alcohol a lot, once I drink, it’s certainly enough to cloud my common sense. I gamble, so I don’t drink when wagering. If you are a drinker, do not gamble at the same time. Both create a dangerous, and expensive, cocktail.
