If you enjoy having a a beer every so often, keep your money out of the casino if you are going to do your consuming in a casino. I am serious. Leave your purse, your money belt, and keep all cash, charge cards and checks back at the hotel. Pack whatever cash you anticipate to spend on refreshments, tipping and only the pocket change you expect to lose and keep the rest behind.

Contemptuous? Not at all. Realistic more like. You may well experience a success after a inebriated night out with your compatriots and be blessed sufficiently to hit a marathon roll at a smokin craps table. Hang on to that account because it’s as brief as it gets if you continually drink and wager. The two just do not mix.

Keeping your cash back at the hotel is a little excessive, but precautionary actions for drastic actions is a requirement. If you wager to succeed, then don’t drink alcohol and gamble. If you are able to afford to be wasteful with your money nary a worry, then drink all the gratuitous alcohol you are able to handle, but do not carry charge cards and chequebooks to throw into the mix of going after losses after your hooched up self loses every little thing!

Allow me to take this one step further. Don’t consume alcohol and then jump on to the internet to gamble in your favorite casino either. I enjoy a drink from the coziness of my abode, but seeing that I am linked up through Neteller, Firepay and keep credit cards in close proximity, I can’t drink alcohol and gamble.

Why? Although I don’t drink to excess, when I consume alcohol, it’s clearly sufficient to cloud my common sense. I bet, so I don’t consume alcohol when betting. If you are more of a drinker, don’t wager at the same time. When mixed, both create a dangerous, and costly, cocktail.
