Good morning, boys and girls, and welcome to the show!  Who’s ready to talk casino games with Uncle BJ (that’s blackjack, let’s continue).  If you’re new to the online casino world, you’re in store for good times, lots of fun, and all the same games you’d find at any Vegas casino.   Gambling is always fun, whether you’re at a high-stakes table with a cocktail in one hand and a beauty in the other, or at a $5 online blackjack table with your college buddies sitting on the couch laughing like jackasses as they text their friends.  THAT SAID, there are just a few things you should be aware of in order to have a successful and pleasurable gambling experience.

In order to drink booze, let’s first talk booze.  You’ve seen “The Hangover” by now.  ”Swingers”.  The whole lot of ‘em.  Vegas and casinos are about PARTYING!  Walk into any casino and the waitresses jump on you like a pack of dogs on a steak.  The buzz you get from gambling loosens your collar and inhibitions and makes the wild ride at the tables that much more fun.

At an online casino however, things are a bit different.  There’s no waitress to cut you off after too many drinks.  There’s no pit boss or online casino staff to tell you maybe it’s time to slow down.  Anything goes in the confines of your own home, and when anything goes and you’re polishing off a bottle of Absolut and Coke by yourself?…suddenly it’s may not be so much fun anymore.  Remember:  gambling is risk-taking for the purpose of winning with the greater probability of losing.  In a casino, we place bets, weigh the odds, get a feel for the hotness of a table, and banter with those around us.  In an online casino in the confines of our own home, the real-life environment and surroundings disappear, increasing the effect that a few drinks can have us.  And after a few drinks, our judgment starts to go.  Do you really want to sacrifice judgment when entering your credit card number into a website?

The moral of the story is wherever you happen to gamble, be smart when it comes to knowing your drinking limit, especially in an online casino.  While online casino games can be as fun as in Vegas, the risk of drinking too much can be greater.
