    I'm happy for them, really.
    But I'm sure some individual readers might agree more with you but others would think otherwise.
    It's very subjective.

    of course there is no such thing as "responsible gambling," it is called investing.

    dontknowhowtobet, I have met people who cannot quit drinking after three drinks. Then, there are those who I have met who do know how to stop at three drinks, they drink because it is enjoyable. Those who do not know when to stop suffer the consequences of their actions. Now, should all the others that know how to stop at three drinks, be forced to quit drinking? Is there such a thing as drinking responsibly? Maybe the same applies to gambling. Those who know they have a problem, maybe, should simply refrain. We are all adults here.

    I find this whole thread inspiring and touching to the heart. Now, I'm back to trying to figure out these upcoming bowl games. Anything you do can be done responsibly or irresponsibly.

    I need advice. My ex girlfriend is coming to pick up some furniture this week.

    The problem is that I sold all of her furniture and lost the money on the packers last night.

    Thoughts?

    I don't think that will work. But I will give it a shot. Know that I hold you responsible for any and all negative repercussions.

    I remember betting $300 a game back when I was 15. I got buried eventually and had to be bailed out by my family. Nowadays I bet to win but a measely $20 a game. There are several types of gamblers and you sound like the type I was at 15. The funny part is my latter style has proven to be more profitable. Go figure. Slow and steady takes emotion out of the equation. Once you do that, everything changes.

    Well I didn't start at 300. I was chasing at that point. Worked a few times before blowing up big time.

    Picking winners is easy

    Gambling is easy

    Life....is tough. The hookers and the blow always seem to come back to haunt you later.

    Be warned.

    Most gamblers have addiction problems and that applies to hookers as well.
