Gambling and booze. It’s a match made in heaven. Two things that go hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly. We’ve all got our go-to drinks, and those drinks tell us something about who we are and how we like to gamble. Does your cocktail match your betting style? Let’s see!
What Does Your Cocktail Say About Your Betting
Old Fashioned
The Old Fashioned is often associated with an aristocratic and more mature drinker. Those who pick an Old Fashioned today are said to enjoy a more traditional way of life but still have an air of risk and challenge to their personality.
You likely won’t catch someone drinking an Old Fashioned at the Penny slot machines. Old Fashioned gives off the vibes of the “rich” and the “high roller.” They find you in the high-limit rooms looking to win it all.
Jack & Coke
Jack and Coke might be hard to find a better American pairing. This is a classic drink that is universally known. Order this drink at a bar, and you will give the impression of being safe, not a thrill-seeker, and overall easy-going.
You are in for the long haul, here for a long time, and not just a good time (although you want that too). You won’t mind sitting at a table for hours on end socializing and having a good time without risking large amounts.
Whiskey
Straight whiskey lovers are complex and methodical people. You are mature, deep, and confident. Whiskey drinkers love to share stories and are comfortable in a group setting. You aren’t afraid to lose yourself in your drink and the details that make up the unique flavor.
Whiskey drinkers are relaxed but committed players. Like you know your way around a good whiskey, you know your way around a casino. You stay serious about the game you are playing, whether it’s at the tables or hitting up the slot machines.
Martini
James Bond, Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe. Drinking a Martini makes you look “fancy.” Martini drinkers are the hardest drinkers/gamblers to pin down. You don’t mind paying 10$ for a fancy drink made almost entirely of alcohol. You are mysterious, clever, and know how to get attention.
Also, your mood can change at the drop of a dime (that could be because of the all-alcohol thing). One minute you are “all in on black”, and the next you are happy with walking away up.
Gin and Tonic
The Gin & Tonic drinker is probably the “cool member” of the friend group or the one with the interesting job. You are sophisticated, intellectual, and a classic person who enjoys a tried-and-true drink over anything crazy.
Just like your drinking habits of tried-and-true, so are your gambling habits. You are calm, cool, collected, and strategic. You stick to what you know, never taking too big of a risk.
Beer
The American beer drinker can vary quite a bit. You are likely an average American stressed about work and the future. Beer drinkers tend to be more competitive and drawn to table games where you can compete against something or someone.
Gambling is your chance to dream of hitting it big, but you are more conservative and realistic with what you have and avoid high-stakes bets. Like your drinking style, you are here for a long time and not just a good time.
