how much does gambling effect ur life?
On a scale of one to ten? One being you can place your bets and go on the rest of the day without thinking about it... 7 u can't take a dump without realizing how shitty ur last bet was.... 10. You wake up in cold sweats after a bad beat... thus having no social life as u can't leave ur computer... okay boys let's hear it
You're assuming that gambling only affects one's life negatively.

Probably a 9. Always checking phone for updates at work or when I'm out. Family dinner? "Yeah sorry guys just gotta go outside for some fresh air" = checking all nba, ncaab and nfl scores while either crying to myself or fist pumping after a win/loss. Constantly checking the forums and espn, etc for news/advice. But gambling has been pretty positive for me.
I'd say 5...I find myself checking my phone a rediculous amount of times during the night. Thinking about it now it's pathetic, because the outcome of the game won't change if i were to check it around late at night, lol how bout you ebbearsfb1?
Well a 10 could also be u can't sleep cause ur so wired from ur lasted cash.... I'm on my phone or id add more options
0,00001. only enjoying myself
If I win big I'd say I'd probably have a better night sleep knowing there's a roof over my head for the night
I'd put myself at a 5 or 6. Find myself checking scores on my phone all the time, yet I still get out with friends and family. There are lots of nights that I don't bet, yet I still check scores. Crazy.
4, i usually bet 3 games top one night, me checking the score constantly won't change the outcome, im not really too invested into betting right now
1. Except for MMA I usually can't even remember who I bet on without referencing my spreadsheet.
About 4-5
Check phone every 10 minutes if I got 200+ on a game. I don't waste time losing sleep over a bet, since I never really bet out of my allowed amount.
Last night for instance....Had Orlando, Denver, Memphis....Didn't check the games til about half time. Then threw an in game bet on Utah, and threw a 100 on the Hornets -2, and never checked the late games score.
On a scale of one to ten it affects me 6.573
now 2-3. used to be around 9-10. constantly checking scores on my phone. i also tailed some guys so I needed to be sure that I had all there plays. and since I live in another timezone everytime I woke up at night I had to check scores and couldn't sleep until the game was finished. lol
now im almost busted and I dont give a **** anymore .

Just do it as a hobby to have more interest in watching games. Small unit plays that won't hurt me in the long run.
I'm about 5 ill check the scores when I'm around or if I get a chance, but won't lose sleep or feel bad about a lose.. sometimes on weekends ill checj scores more often as I got more time... iwhen I just worked at a waterpark id stay up all night watching late night baseball.. but now whatever happens happens
right now i would say about 5. I have fun doing it even when i lose. It makes me feel something that is lacking my my normal everyday life.
I would say 0, it just is apart of my life just as work friends family ect ect. I check the lines every half hour most of the time and I cant remember life without sportsbetting and im not even 23 yet. I have a good job with just a lot of downtime and it just fits in perfectly and in the summer (july-begining of september) its weird because i dont bet baseball
Since when does a half time score in an NBA game mean anything?
Probably about a 3 right now.
4. If I have a play I am checking the scores/watching the games
3, down from 8. I have better money management skills now, so losing doesn't bother me near as much and I don't run out of money anymore. I don't get a high when I win, nor a low when I lose.
I go through spurts ...
When im betting casually for entertainment, its only about a 3 or 4, I watch the game, have fun, and thats that either way.
But then ill go on streaks where im really on my hustle and grind trying to make money and id say its about an 8 or Nine.
9 -- Money Management a problem for me, so much so that ive taken steps recently to make sure i don't let myself have any money for a while
8 mostly affecting my sleep
11 Sorry can't answer anymore questions! I need to go check some scores!
It invades my soul......
In all seriousness, probably around a 5 right now....but only because I make a concerted effort to not let it consume me. I have a wife and little girl, and there have been Sundays when I realized I barely acknowledged them all day. I don't want to be that guy.....

2 or 3, I don't let it control me.
1..I go to bed any never worry one dam bit about any game I ever bet. Maybe its because Ive been doing it for so long and I'm numb to losses...
Failed long term relationship because of it
somedays it feels like its 6.66
