Don’t Drink … Gamble!

If you enjoy having a a beer occasionally, leave your money at home if you are going to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Leave your handbag, your money belt, and leave all cash, charge cards and chequebooks back at the hotel. Only take whatever cash you expect to spend on alcohol, tips and few dollars you expect to lose and leave the rest behind.

Cynical? Not at all. Realistic more like. You may well experience a profit after a intoxicated evening out with your acquaintances and be blessed sufficiently to catch a marathon toss at a smokin craps table. Keep that account considering that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you continually consume alcohol and wager. These activities simply don’t go well together.

Leaving your moolah out of the casino is a tiny bit excessive, but preventative actions for dramatic behavior is necessary. If you gamble to win, then don’t drink and gamble. If you like to be wasteful with your money without a worry, then consume all the no charge beer you are able to handle, but don’t carry charge cards and chequebooks to toss into the mix of chasing squanderings after your bombed self loses all the cash!

Allow me to take this a single step more. Don’t drink alcohol and then head on the net to bet in your favorite casino either. I enjoy a drink from the coziness of my house, however seeing that I am connected through Neteller, Firepay and keep plastic credit in close proximity, I can’t drink alcohol and wager.

Why? Despite the fact that I do not drink alcohol to excess, once I drink alcohol, it’s clearly enough to befuddle my better judgment. I wager, so I don’t consume alcohol when betting. If you are more of a drinker, don’t bet when you do. The two mix up for a ferocious, and expensive, drink.
