    You might be a compulsive gamble if...

    Let's see what you guys can come up with.

      After losing all night, you bet your entire remaining balance on a Aussie Rules Football game you know nothing about that starts at 3:30 Am EST. You monitor the scores online every 5 minutes while trying to study for a final exam at 8:00 AM.

                  You set your self a very firm rule: NO BETTING BIG AMMOUNTS ON 'SURE' GAMES WITH MICROSCOPIC LINES like bet 100 to win 10.

                  But you keep breaking that rule day after day and it bites you in the ass 90% of the time

                          Lets see if you can drive a car at high speed for 2 to 4 hours in a steam box, and not have to be a athlete. Especially if your pit crew can't get the adjustments right on the car and your fighting the steering wheel for that time period.

                          It does take some conditioning.

                                  Done this a few times. Right before making a bet that's either too large or that I consider a true flip of the coin.

                                    You are sitting at a bar watching a hoops game with friends and your favorite team is up by 15 with 20 seconds left. You however, have bet the over and your team needs one more basket to cover. Your friends start to celebrate after the team runs the clock down to zero by ordering shots and you start yelling "Phuck it. Why don't they score? And the whole crowd yells: You are an idiot!"

                                                  as a compulsive gambler. i had money on tsonga when he played nadal. he did awesome in the medibank/heineken open.

                                                  no money on this game. but i think djokovic will win in 3 sets.

                                                    you might be a compulsive gambler if you masterbate on your hair follicles after losing a bet.

Instead of quiting you play more in the casino, and turn it into $2,300 by getting a straight flush in Let it Ride. You really could use the money to pay bills. You feel that you are on a hot streak but get destroyed playing sports and more casino. The next morning you wake up and see only $100 left in the account. While telling yourself you are a freaking tool, you go and play the $100 in the casino again. From some devine stroke of luck you get another straight flush which nets you about $2,400. You are thrilled with this turn of events and take a shower before work thinking about your payout request. After you dry off you see that you have 30 minutes to waste before work. Against better judgement you sit down and play in the casino. Six hours later you have a $0 balance and now you have to call your boss with a BS story as to why you didn't show up.
