Another good rule for gambling is the 90% rule.
Let's say you start with $1000 at a blackjack table. Things go well, and you're at $1900. NOW IS THE TIME TO WALK AWAY!
I can't tell you how many times I've been there or have witnessed others trying to 'round off' their winnings, going for 2 grand, so they can brag about doubling their/my money. Pretty soon you start chasing, and all of a sudden, you're down to $1500. You still made 500 bucks, BUT YOU COULD HAVE HAD 900!
I don't care what amount you gamble, if you've already doubled your money, don't try and chase for 3x/4x/10x, whatever.........
Stay smart, play sober, win................
Great advice for me, except for the "stay sober" part. I have less inhibition to make a larger bet when I am drunk, but am always cognizant of how much I am up. Even if I am sloppy drunk, I quit when I double my money and head to the deli.
When I go with the girl and friends to drink and have a good time I mostly play roulette and black jack.
If i know I am going to try to make some cash, I set a whole day aside, go nice and early and play hold'em all day.Rarely drink when I do this. One of the best times to go is during NFL season. most poker rooms have sunday ticket. its a lot easier to be patient when you can watch every football game while you play.
BOL to you

Play min bet at table and MAX out on Odds. It's the best odds in the casino
Blackjack gives you the best odds (least chance of losing) at the casino, so you better get good at it.
You don't have to be RainMan to increase you odds at the table. Counting every card, dividing the remaining by the number of decks, etc., will drive you crazy. Some people can do this, I cannot. Also, even if you do count every card, you can't get caught doing it, which is another hurdle.
I use a system that counts only the smaller cards. I only play double deck (lots of places only pay out 6-5 on bj, which you should never play). The reason I play doubles is they'll at least deal out one deck. Lots of single deck places shuffle up after dealing out half the deck!
You can PM me and I can go into more detail.
Make sure you are ready to play. Don't go play after watching games in the sports book and had 12 complimentary beers. There's a reason they give them to you. Play sober. Play alert. I pop a 5-hour energy before sitting down.
If you're with a group of people that includes the ladies, sit down at a roulette table, play small, and you should be able to last as long as the women want. They'll occasionally win, think they're a better gambler than you, and may be more "appreciative" later on in the nig

Video poker.
I started playing seriously about 5 years ago, and I have turned a profit the last 4 years. Plus the comps are fantastic.
I play the same game all the time - double double bonus poker. I make sure I find the machines with the best odds for the lower hands (the larger hands all pay the same amount). I prefer this game because even if I don't hit the royal flush jackpot of $4,000
I can still have a winning session by hitting the smaller four of a kinds with the higher payouts. You need a big enough bankroll to cover your session, and you need to learn perfect strategy. (at leat near perfect) The return can be over 100% if done correctly, and like I said earlier the comps add a lot of value as well.
and the machine had the ace kicker as the bonus option, I knew it was going to be cute after holding all the deuces and watch and see how many aces they were going to add to my bankroll !
I also throw some money on the hardway bets if I'm up they are totally sucker bets but I like watching my bet stay out on the table for a while
