Pour les joueurs, les boissons gratuites sont un \u00e9l\u00e9ment important de l'exp\u00e9rience du casino. Pour les casinos, servir des cocktails gratuits g\u00e9n\u00e8re un bon retour sur investissement.<\/p>\n

Cette semaine, un Californien de 52 ans a intent\u00e9 une action en justice contre le Downtown Grand Casino de Las Vegas, all\u00e9guant que le casino avait continu\u00e9 \u00e0 lui servir des boissons et \u00e0 lui accorder des cr\u00e9dits de jeu alors qu'il \u00e9tait manifestement en \u00e9tat d'\u00e9bri\u00e9t\u00e9. Il a ensuite sign\u00e9 des marqueurs pour $500 000 et a tout perdu, ne se rendant compte de l'ampleur de sa perte qu'\u00e0 son r\u00e9veil le lendemain.
\n
\nCe proc\u00e8s controvers\u00e9 a fait l'objet d'une large couverture m\u00e9diatique. (Voir CNN<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

17 heures aux tables<\/h2>\n

Mark Johnston a apparemment jou\u00e9 pendant 17 heures au cours d'une session marathon de pai gow et de blackjack, signant de nombreuses notes de cr\u00e9dit, dont deux de $100.000 chacune, \u00e0 seulement 21 minutes d'intervalle. Plus tard dans la nuit, il a re\u00e7u une autre carte de cr\u00e9dit d'un montant de 1 450 000 euros. De retour chez lui, M. Johnston a fait opposition au paiement des marqueurs, qui sont trait\u00e9s de la m\u00eame mani\u00e8re qu'un ch\u00e8que personnel. Il demande l'annulation de la dette de jeu ainsi que des dommages-int\u00e9r\u00eats au Downtown Grand.<\/p>\n

La cl\u00e9 de son proc\u00e8s sera le t\u00e9moignage d'un t\u00e9moin oculaire et les images de surveillance qui pourraient montrer si le casino aurait d\u00fb savoir qu'il \u00e9tait trop ivre pour continuer. Les casinos du Nevada n'ont pas le droit de servir des boissons \u00e0 des clients visiblement en \u00e9tat d'\u00e9bri\u00e9t\u00e9, ni de les laisser continuer \u00e0 jouer.<\/p>\n

Boissons et paris<\/h2>\n

Bien que ce cas soit un exemple extr\u00eame, il est facile de comprendre pourquoi les casinos servent des boissons gratuites \u00e0 leurs clients joueurs. La consommation d'alcool r\u00e9duit votre capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 prendre des d\u00e9cisions rationnelles concernant l'argent que vous pariez. Et c'est exactement ce dont le casino a besoin pour vous s\u00e9parer de votre argent.<\/p>\n

Il y a quelques ann\u00e9es, j'ai eu une conversation tr\u00e8s int\u00e9ressante avec un sympathique g\u00e9rant de fosse. D'une mani\u00e8re ou d'une autre, nous avons abord\u00e9 le sujet du service des cocktails. Il m'a parl\u00e9 des changements qu'il avait op\u00e9r\u00e9s apr\u00e8s avoir pris un poste de direction dans une salle de poker \u00e0 haute limite en difficult\u00e9.<\/p>\n

La premi\u00e8re chose qu'il a faite a \u00e9t\u00e9 d'autoriser les barmen \u00e0 servir des portions g\u00e9n\u00e9reuses et \u00e0 ne pas se limiter \u00e0 un seul verre d'alcool par boisson. Alors que les comptables de l'entreprise s'inqui\u00e9taient du co\u00fbt des boissons alcoolis\u00e9es, il savait que l'alcool \u00e9tait un bon investissement. Ensuite, il a doubl\u00e9 le nombre de serveuses de cocktails servant \u00e0 la limite sup\u00e9rieure pour s'assurer que tous les joueurs qui voulaient un verre en avaient un.<\/p>\n

Dans les mois qui suivent, les revenus des jeux de table de sa fosse montent en fl\u00e8che.<\/p>\n

La \"Prime Directive\" des jeux de table<\/h2>\n

Je n'oublierai jamais son simple r\u00e9sum\u00e9... \"L'activit\u00e9 des jeux de table est simple. Enivrez-les et gagnez de l'argent.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Alors, comment les choses se sont-elles pass\u00e9es pour ce directeur ? Plut\u00f4t bien. Il est aujourd'hui \u00e0 la t\u00eate de l'une des salles de haute limite les plus prestigieuses du Strip de Las Vegas. Et je parie qu'il est tr\u00e8s facile d'y boire un verre.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
