Don’t Have an Alcoholic Beverage … Gamble!
If you like to have a drink every now and then, keep your money at home if you set out to do your drinking in a casino. I am serious. Clean out your handbag, your wallet, and keep all cash, credit cards and checkbooks back at the hotel. Only take only the money you anticipate to use on refreshments, tipping and whatever pocket change you anticipate to throw away and leave the remainder behind.
Pessimistic? Not at all. Just realistic. You could have a success after a inebriated evening out with your friends and be blessed enough to hit a 25 minute toss at a hot craps game. Hang on to that adventure because it is as short-lived as it gets if you regularly drink and wager. The pair simply do not mix.
Leaving your moolah back at the hotel might be a bit drastic, but defensive measures for drastic actions is a requirement. If you wager to win, then do not drink alcohol and bet. If you like to be wasteful with your cash without a worry, then drink all the no charge beer your stomach can handle, but don’t take credit cards and cheques to throw into the mix of chasing losses after your befuddled head squanders every little thing!
Let me to take this a single step more. Don’t drink alcohol and then head on the web to bet in your favorite casino either. I enjoy a beverage from the coziness of my abode, but since I’m linked up through Neteller, Firepay and keep charge cards near by, I can’t drink and bet.
How come? Even though I don’t drink to excess, once I drink, it is clearly adequate to befuddle my common sense. I wager, so I don’t drink when wagering. If you are more of a drinker, don’t gamble at the same time. When mixed, both create a decimating, and costly, drink.
