#12lilpete, I envy you. You are man enough to admit this instead of turning your head. What I would suggest for you and anyone else that gambles is to find something less expensive to obsess over. Because all gambling is, is a form of obsessive compulsive disorder. Once most people start obsessing over something it's a lifestyle that is hard to stop 'cold turkey', so just change what you obsess over. Exercise, video game, college, anything you can do in large quantities. Good luck bud.. I'm 3 years behind you and hope I either quit even or earlier than you will.Originally posted by lilpetei dont wanna get in any deeper than i already amComment -

#13Yeah, I gamble for the enjoyment, as a math tech geek I love beating the numbers, I love that aspect of gambling more than the cash.Originally posted by A4KIf it aint fun, it aint worth doing.

When it stops becoming enjoyable I'm out.Comment -

PS, when gambling stops being fun (and this goes for just about anything else in life) take a break to work on other things, and reavaluate.Comment -

#26no, i signed up because i wanted to share my picks with people but i just keep losing. thought the smart money strategy would work (jets line goes from -3 to +1 even though the whole world is on the jets;bet the other team, thats a smart money bet), im decent at poker but i always lose everyhting in blackjack, just cant stay away from it.Originally posted by Jayvegas420You signed up at a gambling site to tell strangers you are going to try to quit gambling?Comment -

#28Yeah Guy college is a great way to rack up a ton of debt and get a job at Lowes or Home Depot.
