Do Not Drink … Gamble!
If you enjoy having a a cocktail every once in a while, keep your money at home if you are going to do your drinking in a casino. I’m serious. Leave your evening bag, your money belt, and leave all money, charge cards and cheques at home. Only take whatever cash you expect to spend on beverages, tipping and only the pocket change you intend to squander and keep the remainder behind.
Cynical? Not by any means. Realistic more like. You may well experience a success after a inebriated night out with your acquaintances and be blessed enough to catch a marathon toss at a on fire craps game. Don’t forget that adventure seeing that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you regularly consume alcohol and gamble. The two simply do not go well together.
Leaving your moola back at the hotel is a little drastic, but precautionary measures for drastic actions is essential. If you gamble to win, then do not drink alcohol and gamble. If you like to be wasteful with your money without a concern, then drink all the complimentary booze your stomach can handle, but don’t carry charge cards and chequebooks to toss into the mix of going after squanderings after your befuddled head loses every little thing!
Allow me to carry this one step further. do not drink and then head online to play in your preferred casino either. I love to beer from the comfort of my house, however since I am connected through Neteller, Firepay and have plastic credit at my fingertips, I can not drink and gamble.
Why? Even though I don’t consume alcohol to excess, when I drink alcohol, it is clearly enough to blur my common sense. I gamble, so I don’t drink when wagering. If you are more of a drinker, do not wager at the same time. When mixed, both create a ferocious, and expensive, cocktail.
