                  It would suck to be addicted, cause that probably means you're a loser in general and at betting.

                    a good way to find out is to take a long break.

                          Im addicted to giving good oral

                          only one thing brings me as much satisfaction as making a womans arch as she receives the beat oral she's ever had

                          And thats when a woman sees my rooster for the first time, her eyes get huge and there are no words, just the stare. That look is priceless

                          Im sure Donk or Gaucho know what I speak of

                                  No

                                  We're all trying to pay bills here and many of us are trying to pick winners to pay those bills

                                    You are very bad for people who have a problem...that is why this site makes a ton of cash...I would most likely be a better encourager for people to continue to bet...

                                    If I was asked if i was a friend of Bill...

                                    My answer would be...Yes, i am a friend of Bill, but you can always double up and get it back and more....

                                    people love to hear that!

                                      It's a hobby.
                                      I don't need the action, I get off on beating a number, the action doesn't mean that much to me, but when I break down a game, and all the homework pays off, that's when I get the rush, still a hobby, there's other things I enjoy as well.

                                                  For many gambling is an addiction. For me I don't feel like I am using differently or changing my dosage to get high. I play for fun and if I make a little money on the side then great. It's no fun having a hobby that you aren't good at.

                                                        I like the action, but not to the point where I'd throw tons of money at it. If I lost a lot I'd stop, but I'm still playing with the 300 I loaded my account with last year.
