    It doesn't for me, since when I go to Casinos, it's not for the free drinks. There are dozens of reasons people would go to a casino, some care about the free drinks, others could give a shit. I'm in that latter category. I don't play house games anyway, unless I'm just there with out-of-state buddies having a good time, and that only happens in Vegas where it is free. So meh, if I'm at any other casino, it's normally for social reasons or to play Hold'Em, and I definitely don't drink when I'm playing Hold'Em.

    To assume that everyone, including me should care deeply about freeloading booze doesn't add up to me.

    you sound like a pretty fun guy

    and way to completely miss the point....but its cool if your goal was to come across as a condescending douche....fyi if someone is going to NF to do some hardcore gambling they've got bigger issues....turning stone isnt far off and is 100x better drinks or not

    Here was your first post on the thread...

    So I figured that was your point. My point was that not everybody cares about free drinks. I come off as condescending, you come off as obnoxious for no good reason. Let's call it even.

    When I was in college, free drinks in casinos were a huge deal. They're just not anymore. What can ya do?

    OP, you might want to book for June 15...There is some guy who got a legal permit to walk on a tightrope over the gorge with no safety gear....If he slips off tightrope he falls to his probable death.
