Losing all of your money
in one trip to the casino
is simply not any fun
at all. With a little
common sense and some
tips and techniques from
old time gamblers, you
may end up with a heavier
pocket next time you leave
the online casinos or
the gambling extablishments
of the real world in places
like Las Vegas, Reno and
Atlantic city.
The first thing to understand
is that it is the business
of the casinos to separate
you from your hard earned
money. Once you understand
that, you will start to
see just what the casinos
are up to with all their
seemingly hospitable gratitude
and misconstued generosities.
Every move they make is
calculated to derive as
much cash out of the common
gambling patron as possible.
One technique that you
may be successful with
is the time limitation
rule. Allow yourself a
certain amount of time
to gamble. Thats not saying
that you have a limited
amount of time at a particular
blackjack table or slot
machine but rather an
overall limit to gambling
entirely for that session.
A session can be a day
or a week or a year. The
longer you play, the more
you will lose. The online
casinos as well as the
brick and mortar casinos
have been established
to make money. Sure, they
will payout at a rate
of 98% but over a period
of time, the house still
wins that 2%. The faster
you play, the faster you
will lose. Take the slots
and video poker machines
for example. Casinos love
these machines because
people when left alone
tend to play faster. When
there is a dealer involved,
they tend to play slower.
Add this to the fact that
the casinos have to pay
a salary to that dealer
and you can see why the
online casinos and the
electronic gambling games
at the brick and mortar
casinos hvae become favorites
of the casino moguls.
One advantage of playing
at home in the online
casinos is that you can
take your time and refer
to strategy charts and
notes. On the other hand,
if you are a casual gambler,
a weekend warrior so to
speak, you may end up
playing too fast at the
internet casinos. But
think about this, you
can use all kinds of cheat
sheets and help books
or reference charts when
you are gambling from
the comfort of home at
the online casinos.
Know when to stop. So
how DO you know when to
stop? The orginazations
that help problem gamblers
say that you will notice
that you are no longer
having fun but you keep
on gambling anyway. When
it stops being fun, just
stop gambling right then.
One way to keep your
gambling to a reasonable
level is to make sure
that you kep your gambling
and casino funds seperate
from your other funds.
(Don't mix church and
state) Set up an amount
well before you even think
about entering that online
casino for how much you
can gamble per session,
and then stick to it.
