If you enjoy a drink occasionally, leave your cash at home if you plan to do your consuming in a casino. I’m serious. Leave your evening bag, your money belt, and keep all money, plastic credit and checks back at the hotel. Only take only the cash you anticipate to use on alcohol, tipping and only the pocket change you expect to burn and keep the rest behind.

Pessimistic? Absolutely not. Just realistic. You could experience a profit following a intoxicated evening out with your acquaintances and be lucky sufficiently to catch a marathon toss at a hot craps game. Don’t forget that account considering that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you regularly drink alcohol and bet. The two simply do not go well together.

Leaving your moola at home is a bit drastic, but preventative actions for dramatic actions is essential. If you gamble to succeed, then don’t drink alcohol and play. If you like to be wasteful with your cash without a worry, then drink all the free booze your stomach are able to handle, but don’t take credit cards and checkbooks to toss into the mix of chasing squanderings after your hooched up self loses everything!

Permit me to carry this a single step more. Don’t drink alcohol and then jump on the internet to bet in your best-liked casino either. I love to cocktail from the coziness of my abode, but seeing that I’m hooked up through Neteller, Firepay and have plastic credit in close proximity, I can’t drink alcohol and wager.

Why? Even though I do not drink a lot, when I drink alcohol, it’s clearly sufficient to cloud my common sense. I gamble, so I do not consume alcohol when betting. If you are more of a drinker, don’t gamble when you do. Both make for an awful, and expensive, cocktail.
