It makes me question what they protocols are for casinos to handle those situations, If I had to guess, I would assume they would allow people in that state to gamble as much as if they were sober. What do you think?

Even in some movies people under heavy influence of alcohol are asked to leave by staff or the casino owners. I'm sure there are such casinos in real life too because not everyone is a cheater, and allowing people in that state to gamble is very close to cheating, to be honest. I don't mean drunk people are less lucky or something like that, but in that state they are prone to risk more. They can go all-in when the chance of winning is less than 1%, or they go all-in when the chance of winning is 50%, while when you sober you know that you shouldn't go all-in in any case.

What you say is reasonable, but kicking someone out a casino because of drunkenness can be very subjective for the staff in that shift to evaluate. What would be the criteria used for them to tell someone is not supposed to continue to gamble? Are they supposed to only tell them to leave when they start to act out or misbehave? Or perhaps the staff is tasked to keep a count on the number of beers and cock tales the drinking gamblers are having, so they can deny them further service when the line/limit is crossed?

Because if someone starts to be a bother after a couple of beers at the same time there could be someone even more drunk but remains quiet as continues to gamble more money. It would be interesting to know what the official protocol for these situations are.
