Resolve to Play Smarter and Have Fun

A New Year is here already. It seems like only a few months ago we were ringing in 2008 with much joy and anticipation, now we can't shuffle it the door fast enough. What a difference twelve months can make. To say that 2008 was a challenging year would be an understatement. Many of us will be making fewer trips to the casino this year. In order to get the most out of our visits we need to play smart, utilize promotions and have a plan before we go

Each year many of us start by making resolutions to improve ourselves or change some undesired habit. You know the ones I'm talking about. We all have made and broken them year after year. They sound good on New Year's Day but most resolutions go out the within a week or two. Some psychologists theorize that the reason this happens is because we don't have the passion required to give it our full effort in order to make I work. The resolutions and goals that do get achieved are the ones that we enjoy doing and find pleasure in accomplishing.

This year you could make a New Year's resolution to "have more fun in the casino". That sounds simple enough but if you are like me, the real fun in the casino comes from winning. In order to be a consistent winner you have to play smarter when you visit the casino. So let's change the resolution from" have more fun in the casino to "I resolve to play smarter in the casino!" Here are some suggestions.
