If you enjoy having a a beer every once in a while, keep your money at home if you plan to do your drinking in a casino. I am serious. Clean out your handbag, your wallet, and keep all cash, plastic credit and checks back at the hotel. Pack whatever money you expect to spend on beverages, tipping and only the pocket change you intend to lose and leave the remainder behind.

Cynical? Not at all. Just realistic. You could experience a win following a boozy evening out with your acquaintances and be lucky enough to hit a 25 minute roll at a smokin craps table. Keep that story considering that it’s as short-lived as it gets if you continuously drink and gamble. The pair simply don’t mix.

Leaving your cash out of the casino is a little bit drastic, but preventative actions for drastic actions is necessary. If you gamble to win, then don’t drink and gamble. If you are able to afford to throw aside your assets without a concern, then consume all the complimentary beer your stomach can handle, but don’t carry credit cards and cheques to throw into the mix of going after losses after your bombed brain throws away all the cash!

Permit me to take this one step further. Don’t drink and then hop on the web to play in your favorite online casino either. I love to beverage from the comfort of my house, but considering that I am connected through Neteller, Firepay and have plastic credit near by, I can’t drink alcohol and wager.

What’s the reason? Although I don’t drink to excess, when I drink alcohol, it is clearly sufficient to befuddle my common sense. I bet, so I do not consume alcohol when wagering. If you are a drinker, do not bet when you do. The two mix up for a decimating, and crazy, cocktail.
