Go to college bro....looks like the opportunity is there...take it.Comment -
Patty, I Love You Man, And I Want The Best For You, And I Know You Wont Quit And You Are Just Humoring Me Now.. But Seriously Speaking Now.. If You Really Love Sports That Much, I Woudln't Tell You To Quit.. I'd Tell You To Get A Job.. And Take 75 A Week From The Salary, And Use That To Gamble.. If You Lose, That's It.. For Another Week.. And If You Win, Ride It..
But You Cant Do That Patty.. You Have A Very Compulsive Character, An Addictive Personality.. You Cant' Just Bet, Lose And Walk.. You Will Chase It And End Up In A Hole..
My Advice To You Is If You Love Sports, Just Bet 20% Of Your Weekly Salary And Turn It Into A Hobby, Not A Sickness. You're A Good Kid And I Dont Want To See You End Up Like 99.2% Of All Gamblers, Who Are Miserable, And Have Lost Everything In Life And Are Lonely Men Without Anything.
There's A Bar 2 Min From Me. They Have 60 Poker Machines There. All 60 Men And Women Fill Up This Place Everyday And All Have Lost Everything.. Their Spouses, Kids, House And Money.. And They Continue To Go There Everyday Of Their Lives Gambling, Smoking And Drinking. I Asked A Guy Last Week, I Said, Tom, Are You Happy In Life? And He Told Me, Nicky, I Am The Most Miserable Guy In The World. I Want To Die. I Had Everything 7 Yrs Ago, A Great Family, Kids, And A Beautiful Wife And Home.. Today Nicky, I Have Nothing.. I Want To Die.. I Wish I Never Gambled, Nicky.. It Ruined My Life..
I Dont Want You To Be Tom, Patty..Comment -

blitty deuce, actually it's not paver the culprit here, it's you.. you just have to be a wise ass, huh?? that's it deucey, we're off on the hockey. i ain't playing hockey with you anymore..
boys, back to the topic here. patty asked me a question and i am trying to help him.. patty, 20% of your salary goes to gambling, and dont be compulsive. if you are, then it's time to quit gambling completely. take it as a hobby..
don't be another Tom.. Tom's life is over.. you're just starting yours.Comment -

Nicky, I wasn't trying to be wise. I thought you were talking about commerce casino or one of the various indian reservations we have in socal. Im fairly new to internet forums and you are obviously an experienced blogger or whatever. But what is the purpose of all the deception and ghosts everyone talks about, If you reside in Winnipeg or Regina or Moose Factory or something you should be proud of that Nickyy and let the whole world know your a proud rural Canadien!

Blitty, you saying dudes from East LA don't have hockey sticks laying around their apartments?

patty, are you playing games with me now? i think you are toying with me now..patty, it's like drugs or alcohol.. you need to have the will to quit. if you dont want to quit, you'll never quit. you have to really want it.. i dont think you really want it.. i think you enjoy gambling so much.. like i said, if you really like sports that much, then dont quit. just bet 20% of your weekly salary and if you lose, that's it. no more. but if you are compulsive and you have no control, then quit now..
lets see if you are serious now or just toying with me. give me your acct #'s, or lets call your books together on the phone and let's hear you close your accts with me on the phone. now i will know if you are toying with me or not. if you dont give it to me, then you are playing around and not serious.
patty, quit now.. you are a very sick kid.Comment -

i really dont know what to say here. i am in shock.. i know you love this so much and it's your passion. and i also know that you will miss this so much after 2 days, like every gambler i ever met, so i dont what to do now.. where do i go from here. i am happy that you at least want to quit, this is key.. but how long will this last? patty, i dont know what to do, honestly..
anyone have any opinions of what should be patty's first move.
you know he's going to start missing it in 24 hrs. gambling is like a drug.. people say they will quit cigarettes for life, then all is ok first 2 days, then bam.. they light up.. this is a sickness and it is hard to quit it..
any suggestions boys? what should we do, and how should we do this?Comment -
I try and trade one addiction for another.
Quit doing drugs, start drinking heavily. Quit coffee, drink coca-cola.
Now I'm hooked on coca-cola. Could be worse.Comment -
nicky do the right thing and call those books tell them to lock the accounts and not book his action, he is a compulsive gambler and wants outComment -

patty is one of the sickest gamblers i have ever encountered in all my life.. this is true.. however, i need patty's pw's in order to do this, and i dont want patty to give out his pw here.. nobody should ever know your pw's.. unless he wants to call them and do this himself..
if i call 5 dimes and tell them to lock his acct without his permission or his pw's.. they will laugh at me and hang up on me.. so i am in a tough bind here.Comment -
Let him have some time to really think, maybe give him til 5pm...let him marinate for a little. then give his decisionComment -
Give me the strength to fight this nicky.Comment
