    Do You Guys Tell Your Loved Ones Your Compulsive Gamblers??

    My people know

    Why hide it??

    The key is to regulate it

    It is one of the things I am working on here at SBR and helping people use self control and discipline and stay in the game and not do much destruction at home

    Only bet what you can afford to lose. It is entertainment. Simple.

    Been married for almost 10 years. Got tired of being nagged about playing poker so I cashed out 1k gave it to her and told her to buy some clothes and furniture. Haven't had that conversation since. Small fee to pay for some peace.

    Put it this way.
    If a game is on, the first thing they ask is "Who'd you bet on ?"

    I hear that ALL THE TIME.

    Either that or after the game, "Did you win?"

    I absolutely live how I am and who I am at that moment in time. I don't have time to care about what my lazy ****** up relatives and their problems care about me. I have done it in front of em-behind em-to the side of em-all the phuck over em. You marry me knowing I am going to do as I please with no intent on hurting you, but, don't tell me how to live. Phuck any Pucies that live like twats!

    Pretty much a closet gambler here.. Nobodies business but my own.. Gambling for a steady income is never well received in the community.. I don't know why it gets such a bad wrap if you're good it?

    Come to think of it I kinda feel like a gay man that hasn't come out of the closet yet in a sense, shiiiit..

    Pure entertainment for me and my close family all do it. Colleagues current and former all invest in sports for entertainment and in fact i can't think of many of my friends that don't put up in some form or fashion especially during football season.

    If you gamble everyday then you don't have to tell them, they already know.
