Why do you gamble?

[gregmav1]

Well, honestly, what are your reasons?

Edit: Well, I meant to post a poll that was 5 options, but polls aren't working. Tried twice now.

1. Money
2. Fun/Action
3. Even mixture of both
4. Mainly for fun/action, but possibility of making money.
5. Mainly to make money, but the action is nice.

[cburland10]

to get rich?

[Ted Sheckler]

The action, like most wins and losses don't matter. Of course prefer to win but it doesn't matter as long as you got action.

If this is true for you, seek help.

Watching a d-3 game with teams I don't care about is more exciting with a few bucks on it

[BadLuckSanta]

Can't watch sports without action anymore

Easy income

[ToyotaLC]

Like many others, it gives a reason to watch sports.

some might do it because there's something at the top of the mountain, some might do it for the experience, some might do it to write a book about it, some may do it for the thrill

relax buddy

[Bostongambler]

Ok Greg's anatomy I just got home and I have my feet up in my study as I get ready to make some money tonight. So I'm relaxed. U on the other hand seem confused. Sexually confused is often the culprit . Care to elaborate?

stop trollin bro, get a life

I don't gamble out of my means and put others in my family at risk...so why seek help? Most gamblers deep down know they aren't going to win but want the action, and most people will say they do it to win money, but most of them aren't being 100% honest.

Most guys here lose money and are hypocrites. When the wife buys something they get pissed, yet she actually comes home with something in her hands.

I don't know how anyone gambles to make money

If You did you would make maybe 10 to 15 Bets a year only

So you pretty much admit here that gambling is for fools. Good.

[Ra77er]

I do it for Internet cred on various forums

[YellowCurious]

I do it for the action. It makes me feel alive when I am gambling. I've never made any money gambling since I've lost more than I made. I just make sure to just spend what I can afford. The action of betting is the only thing that gives me a natural high in life. Without it, I have no reason to live. Gambling is life!!!

[texhooper]

I gamble because I'm unhappy...

And I'm unhappy because I gamble...

[GunShard]

It's not addiction if you do in moderation.
Whether it's gambling, drugs, foods, sex, online gaming etc..

[jjgold]

Is gambling a natural high??

[shaunovery]

It makes watching sports more enjoyable (well sometimes)

Yea, gambling addiction strong. Even if not losing lot of money, time is money.
