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.

That depends on the level of the drunkenness, if that person is drunk but still able to communicate properly then it's not really that big of a deal to let that person stay for a little while in the casino but any attempts for that person to gain access to alcoholic beverages should be barred or prevented to hopefully make sure that the drunk person wouldn't go to a higher level of inebriation which will likely involve violence so you're right that it's subjective and that there's no way that we can just outright kick them out, remember that drunk casino gamblers are most likely to spend more money than they should so it's a matter of balancing act on whether you should kick them out or letting them stay. Maybe someone in this forum reach out to casino managers and see how they're managing this type of situation.

It is subjective, yes. But it could be otherwise if casinos decided to implement some sensors or ways to quantify the concentration of alcohol in the blood of the gambler. You know, like those instruments which are used by law enforcement officers to know whether someone is above the legal limit of alcohol in blood or not.
Though, it would be weird to see some bartenders in casinos using those on gambler whom they suspect to be above the limit.

Anyways, I believe most people who visit a casino should be already aware of their limit when comes to alcohol consumption and do not go beyond it because they are visiting a casino in Las Vegas. That is what many tourist do, they get above their natural limit of alcohol, misbehave and then next morning they have to deal with the consequences of the crazy stuff done. I could not be able to enjoy a night in s casino in such state, to be honest.
