Default beverage question?

Are you allowed to bring your own beverages to Los Angeles card rooms that charge for beverages or is it sort of a rip-off like at the airport where they take your bottled water that you got at the grocery store for 25cents so they can sell you a different bottled water for $3? Or do they only charge for alcoholic beverages? Somebody tell me the deal, thanks.

Pretend it's like a movie theater.

If nobody catches you, it's not against the rules. If they do, oh well, not like you're getting arrested or anything.

Or you can live dangerously, and attempt to bring in your 25 cent bottle of water. Your plan may be foiled, and your water confiscated, but life is not without it's risks...

Ive seen many different typs of bottled water brought into casinos. As for charges, most soft drinks are nominily charged.

Huster is 50 cents each. a buck for bottled water. Give the porter a buck and they are happy. Hustler will not allow Pespi products in, but you can bring in your own Coke products.

HP softdrinks are a buck for a can.
Bike is 50 cents on the floor. Free in the royal section.
I think commerce 50 cents for soft drinks, I dont play their much.

Diamond Jims gives free softdrinks. A buck for bottled water.

I'm going out on a limb here, but I'd say the OP is playing in Los Angeles.

Yes, they charge for drinks in California. Why? No table games. Why again? Little competition.

Yes, a friend is going to Los Angeles and invited me to tag along.

I agree that the way it's handled in Tunica is absolutely first rate.
