I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
You are correct when you say that, but at the same time the fact that gamblers seem to be happy about this indicates that this is not only a business decision by the casino, this is a also decision that was taken because the gamblers wanted it, which makes sense, the number of gamblers that can earn money at the casino is limited and while the number of people that want to achieve this is higher the majority of the gamblers are people that just want to have a good time and this will help them to achieve exactly that.
Neither that Cannabis lounge was purely decided by the management itself or in result with public or players demands then it doesnt matter because no matter what angle you would be looking at then they would be still having the edge.

I dont really believe much about lessening the chances of winning because luck cant really be influenced by any other external factors that is happening unless if dealing with games
which requires critical thinking then this would mostly be affected on.

Theyll do all sorts of things for their benefit and its always a business.
Your luck will not change but your decision making will, for example supposing that you only wanted to spend a couple hundred dollars at the casino but then you are intoxicated with alcohol and cannabis you may find yourself losing that money too quickly and using your credit or debit card to get more chips and losing way more money than what you intended in the first place, see? Your luck did not changed but the money that you lost certainly did.

If you are against the legalization of marijuana than you're an idiot.  Plain and simple.
Wow, you look really angry because some people don't cheer on drugs use. I believe no one is forcing you to stop smoking your weed. Everyone is free to do what they want with their lives. People think it's exciting to gamble while under drugs' effects and they have the right to go ahead into this psychodelic adventure. That is how free will works since the beginning of the world, but there are consequences that can't be avoided.

And although it's a clear sign of the decadence of the individual, there is also a good side on it that is the bad propaganda every drugs' user makes for drugs usage. The youngsters think they are smarter than everyone else for using drugs the same way those old hippies from 60's-70's and artists in general thought during their days. Just look how those people have gotten older (or died). That is the perfect propaganda against drugs.

If you're against marijuana legalization then you sure as hell should be against alcohol legalization and should want sugar to be made illegal too.  Sugar is a drug, and a drug that is FAR FAR FAR more harmful than marijuana.  Marijuana has never killed anyone.  Do you realize how many people have died because of sugar? SMH  Roll Eyes
some governments in different countries have different views on the legality of cannabis...

my country is one that banned cannabis and put it in the category of drugs because it has a high effect on hallucinations and addiction. cannabis users have no common sense and many cannabis users in my country are going crazy. I can't imagine how a gambler plays gamble when he finishes using cannabis.

Just because a country banns something doesn't mean its wrong or bad, it can just mean they are uniformed or do so for a purpose that benefits them.  Some countries, like China, don't allow for people to practice their own religion..is that fair?  Some countries don't let women drive or vote, is that right or fair?

You are obviously completely misinformed.  Marijuana does not make you hallucinate  Cheesy  It's also not addictive.  That is a huge fallacy.  I have smoked marijuana for over 20 years.  I've got a great job, good life etc.  I smoke marijuana when I take financial licensing exams such as the Series 7 which is a 6 hour exam and incredibly difficult.  Marijuana helps me focus/concentrate.  You are 100% uneducated on this topic and don't know what marijuana really is if you think that way.  Your country's laws around it are flat out wrong, and outdated.

Apparently according to a recent news the Gambling Casinos in Vegas are going to allow Cannabis Lounges. In Nevada it's not restricted if you do it in your own house.
https://www.gamblingnews.com/news/vegas-nightlife-gets-more-colorful-with-cannabis-lounges/
What do you think about it ?
- I do think that this is a step taken by both casinos and the government to ensure that people loose more, so that they do not care about what they are doing and at the end both the casinos and the government will make more money this way.
I surely think that this might not be the way to go, alcoholic drinks are served in the casinos for a reason. I do think that this might be a "happy news" for most people but at the same time you should realize that this is something that will drastically reduce your chances of winning.

I heard there were even gamblers in Vegas doing the cocaines now.  What do you think of that?  Does it give you an edge due to heightened alert levels or is it a negative because drugs are bad?  I bet it gives you an edge otherwise casinos would be setting up cocaine lounges for all the suckers.
I am not sure with regards to the effects of different types of drugs, but nonetheless, both the casino and the government should take accountability and transparency with the impacts of such lounges especially to the overall health of casino players and on gambling situations. It might be a good thing for some players and the casinos, but given the instances, addiction is seemingly being fostered at this rate.

Do many of you guys not realize how absolutely foolish you sound whom think that marijuana is some kind of crazy hardcore drug?!  Smoking weed will not make yo do crazy things, it will not make you a bad gambler, it does not raise your adrenaline etc.  I am amazed at how many people in here are utterly and completely misinformed when it comes to marijuana.  If you are against the legalization of marijuana than you're an idiot.  Plain and simple.  You have no clue what you're talking about and need to educate yourself before you keep spewing propaganda. You all are acting like marijuana is some sort of hardcore drug like crack or heroin.

If you're against marijuana legalization then you sure as hell should be against alcohol legalization and should want sugar to be made illegal too.  Sugar is a drug, and a drug that is FAR FAR FAR more harmful than marijuana.  Marijuana has never killed anyone.  Do you realize how many people have died because of sugar?

Believe me, everything is much more fun after smoking marijuana and you are hungry a lot to go on a gambling adventure. It even seems to me that person is much more cautious after marijuana than alcohol.
That is not a good thing, because the person is artificially provoking a behavior on their body that isn't spontaneous. Worse yet, it is being caused by putting dangerous substances into their bodies. Public opinion thinks it's beautiful to be a drugs user nowadays, but these people are actually too young to know anything about the side effects this activity will cause futurely. Even mental ilness are related to drugs use.
And the more the person uses it, the more they will want. You said people become funny after smoking marijuana, however they won't be able to have any fun without this drug anymore, always having to use it constantly to feel good. In other words: the person becomes slave or a prisioner of the drug.

And indeed, an artificially happiness feeling can lead the individual to do absurd things momently, like spending more than he can afford to lose in gambling.
People would have different mindset or reactions when it comes to that until they would realize that theyre wrong in the times on where body is already starting to feel or does show those implications on too much using or involving into something neither drug or anything that could really be addicted and which this isnt a surprising thing. Some would be seeing this to be normal or typical but you should really know on how to protect
your body because once it do breaks down then you know on whats next.
Anyway, when the body and mind are contaminated by drugs then it will only create fantasies for him that will not be controlled. So, when the pleasant fantasy has affected them, in the end they will not be able to gamble well, although gambling will be good to do when the mood is good but not by taking drugs to get that mood. The right choice is to gamble first and after you decide to stop whether it's winning or losing from gambling, then next you can look for other pleasures and it's also good to smoke marijuana if it's good for you and don't have to force it.

I have not heard that marijuana makes a person aggressive and gives him a thirst for adventure (in my opinion, these emotions are good for the feelings experienced from gambling). In my opinion, gambling goes well with alcohol and other drugs, but not marijuana.
But we probably shouldn't talk about some kind of compatibility of the services provided by the casino - the casino just provides the whole range of services that are legalized.
The effect of Cannabis is totally different, it can bring big smile to your face and can trigger your best mood that can help you enjoy more your gambling activities, and most probably to force you from playing more. Making lounges like this on a casinos is not that good, this is still an illegal drugs in my country and beside looks like you are encouraging them to use it, and do gamble without self-control, this is such a greedy move by those casinos.

Hmmm... I hope you meant the casino, not me. I do not promote drugs and stay away from them.
As for casinos, as I already wrote offline casinos are complex entertainment systems and they will provide any legal service, absolutely any. I will not be surprised if after a dozen years it will be possible to fly into space after a big win, smoke a weed there and return to the gambling table. And all this without leaving the casino.

I read a lot about different kinds of drug addiction. I wondered why people use drugs and how it affects their health and the people around them. If I'm not mistaken, a cannabis addict can easily combine his addiction with almost any activity, which cannot be said about a person who uses heroin or some other hard drugs. 

I can't comment on heroin because it probably completely destroys human perception, so I don't think anyone can play anything under its influence. As for cocaine, I am sure that combining it with gambling is at least several times dangerous than combining marijuana with gambling.

 Cheesy  You must not smoke weed or have only a time or two because you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.  Marijuana and alcohol are VERY different "drugs".  In fact I don't consider weed a drug, I consider it a medicine.  The truth is sugar is a FAR WORSE drug than marijuana is, to put it in to perspective.  Getting high does not equal bad decisions.  For example I smoke weed while studying and taking major financial licensing exams.  It helps me concentrate in a big way.  Now some types of weed don't but many types do.  People who have no clue about marijuana say stuff like you have here.

Edit: Marijuana does not "shoot up" your adrenaline levels lol wtf.  Dude you need to do some more homework before you keep spouting out a bunch of nonsense propaganda.  You sound like an absolute fool ( so do all the others here whom think marijuana legalization is a bad thing.  I say to you get out of the past and learn the truth).

I am not experienced in this, so I can not assume any specific things about the motivation of drug addicts  Grin But it seems to me that this is relevant for beginners who experiment and try different things and their combinations. An experienced addict (from gambling or from drugs) knows exactly what he wants and it is unlikely that this is a visit to the casino (if he is addicted to drugs).

What's stopping you from smoking weeds before visiting a casino or smoking at home and playing online? In my opinion, mixing different pleasures is a dubious idea, especially in this case - gambling gives adrenaline, and smoking weed relaxes. Thus, you will receive not an increase in sensations, but a weakening.
This is an interesting way to view things, if seen from that perspective the only ones that could benefit from this are the ones that are in the casino not to enjoy the adrenaline rush that it gives, so probably the only ones that can take 100% of the benefits offered by this are those that are there to close down a deal with other people or those that are in fact professional gamblers and that are not there to enjoy their time in the casino but to make money and they need to relax.
No matter what the intentions are it would be still on casinos advantage and of course into those players who do really get some perks like this on taking cannabis or having some good time or relaxation.

You can already see on what are the advantage of giving out this kind of allowing cannabis on casino lounges.You know what are the their motives are but of course you would really

still see that people do love it because its rare to see cannabis to be allowed.

We all know the real reason why casinos decided to allow cannabis, because it will reduce the gambler's chance of winning. And this means that
casinos can make more money, but surprisingly many gamblers don't mind it. Because they can enjoy using cannabis, which not all places
allow cannabis. In the end it comes back to everyone's decision, but as long as there is no coercion from the casino to use cannabis I don't think
it's a problem.


This is also my first thought it could reduce your winning chances in casino games. We all know that your chance of winning in casino is 49% and for casino is 51% then it would be reduce if you  are drunk or high. But if we are just saying that we are playing just to be entertain to enjoy or to have past time then it is okay . Well, cannabis lounge is beneficial to users, but it is also beneficial to non-users. The true output of this lounge would be more money for casino owners.

Many addicts believe that using drugs helps them expand their consciousness. Perhaps this is the reason why cannabis smokers go out and attend public events to get new experiences rather than using cannabis alone at home.

I think that people should more informed of how cannabis, and basically cannabidiol works on human body, and that it can be really helpful against the stress. In that way, maybe there would be more followers of legalization of cannabis in the states, which are still pending.
I don't use it and still contemplating about the pros and cons of it. But I've heard really about it being used medically but for recreational purposes, it's where people are having debates.

But if Las Vegas allows that to have a lounge for specific use like for recreational activity, it really depends on the state rule of their local government.
It wont really be approved if they would see more in negative effects than with positive ones and of course cannabis does have some benefits but we know that everything is too much
would be always bad and for sure they are limiting out on how much a player could smoke on and wont really be having that unlimited smoking of weed on the premises unless if
you do really have deep pocket then they might  really be changing up their minds and we know that money could change up everything and no one would ever do make some
complaints or trying to tell the government or something like that.

Oh, that can make them feel free to use Cannabis while they gamble, making them lose control over themselves. But I agree that maybe some gamblers who use Cannabis can play better if they consume Cannabis, but not many of them. Hopefully, their place will be separate from the regular gamblers because that can disturb them and make them not focus on the game.
It wouldn't be a Cannabis lounge now would it if they actually included regular gamblers with them right? I reckon it's either the lounge has its own games or gamblers are allowed to only take in Cannabis inside the lounge, and they have to finish it before they actually gamble. They can't do both at the same time.
I hope the casino will consider that because if they do not have a separate room between regular gamblers and the other gamblers who consume Cannabis, they will not be comfortable. I do not know if they can not do both simultaneously or they can do that while they gamble.

After all, that news can make gamblers who consume Cannabis will happy with that.

Cannabis is legalized in most of the states and i am not sure when Las Vegas legalized cannabis and there is no complaint against them as they are making full use of the opportunity and opening a Cannabis Lounges which will attract a certain community of members who are using Cannabis on a daily basis and they can now expect a huge number of turnouts and bookings.

I think that people should more informed of how cannabis, and basically cannabidiol works on human body, and that it can be really helpful against the stress. In that way, maybe there would be more followers of legalization of cannabis in the states, which are still pending.
If they can use it as per dose, that will not have a bad impact, but usually, people will use that over and get the worst. Maybe there will be a regulation for more about using Cannabis at the casino.
