      Problem is you bet the wrong teams.

        It's not a problem unless you're losing. If you're losing quit and find something to win at. Simple as that.

          Never been to a GA meeting but I would assume it's full of whining losers.

                  This is my first year sports betting and it has kind of been like a gambling nicotine patch if that makes sense. I used to go to the Casino once a month to shoot craps and play blackjack. would hit the atm multiple times on my losing sessions, would feel like a big piece of crap. Sports betting curbs the desire, even if its just 25 bucks or something

                      It's only a problem when I play the tables. Sticking to sports betting it's actually fun and I'm able to hold my own. So far in 2016 I'm 45-33-1 (just shy of 57%). I should probably quit now for the whole year BUT it's just too much dang fun capping & placing the bets in the AM and then checking the scores before heading to bed in the evening.

                                Darrell, if I am reading this correctly, you have your rent paid off until April? That doesn't sound that bad.....

                                        Watched my friend go back to back for over $400 on keno (25cent/a hand)
                                        I lost $300 and have a serious hangover- tipped the bartender close to 60 bucks with all the free drinks I got- OH VEGAS!!!

                                                Like I said, I have a gambling problem:

                                                With that said, Carolina 1h -3 (-120) after I get out of work this afternoon.

                                                      Odd how the bookies DONT have a problem huh. Just like the local bar owner who needs the staggering drunk to show up every night so that he can keep the doors open

                                                      And when place like youwager screw excellent customers over and over again, you have to wonder how they keep doors open

                                                        Always love to win BUT

                                                        absolutely hate to gamble so i guess that would be a huge problem!

                                                          I always like a good hike when I need to clear my mind. Have you considered moving away from Vegas? I mean I guess you can gamble anywhere but the whole drinking/casino/vegas life is a lot to handle. I couldn't do it.
