            The key to gambling is to keep betting because eventually you will win. Keep reloading keep betting eventually you are due.

              Good.

              Gave me a reason to wake up early.

              Now I dont spend all day at the cantina. I drink in my home instead.

                    It's social suicide. That's why we come here. Wouldn't give it up though. It's a perfect hobby for me.

                        Cost me a few relationships and my Dad is disappointed in me. People ask him what I do and he doesn't know what to say. Winning streaks sure are fun though.
                        I think you can do this, make money at it, AND be productive elsewhere in life as long as gambling doesn't consume you

                            It's affected my love of sports, cheering on my favourite teams.

                            There can be no favourite teams if you do the smart thing and bet with your head, not your heart.

                                          Probably negatively, though not by much. I've lost some money, but it's offset by the thrill and enjoyment I get from a legitimate hobby. Has enhanced my critical thinking, and gives me a decent sense of satisfaction from being part of the SBR community and getting to go to the bash etc...
