A Banging Hangover And A Big Hole In Your Bankroll? Don't Play Poker When You're Drunk!
 by: Ashley Cotter-Cairns


If you're a fan of on-line casino or on-line poker, you need to learn to keep your business and pleasure separate. As the good book tells us:

A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything. -Ecclesiastes 10:18-20

Having a night on the town? Great. Just go straight to bed (alone or otherwise!) and leave gambling for another day.

If you play poker for a living, count your lucky stars! What a lifestyle you have. So when you have a night off, enjoy it and really, really resist that temptation to 'just have half an hour' when you're in your cups.

If you are not a pro on-line poker player, and you treat poker as relaxation, the rule is the same. When you're too 'relaxed', your poker will suffer.

Otherwise, why bother to build a bankroll and become a better player? On-line casinos are probably more your thing. Just load up some dollars and watch them slowly disappear down the pan.

If you *must* play on-line poker when you're drunk, sign up for some cheap sit and go tournaments and limit your liability. Who knows, you might get lucky and wake up with more than you started with! (Which is just as likely to happen if you pick up a woman in the wrong kind of nightclub...)

And if you wake up seriously in debt to an on-line casino, you only have yourself to blame.

Be the ‘designated driver’ for your on-line poker bankroll. You'll thank yourself for it in the long run!
