Do you or someone you know have REAL gambling problems?

[Hawaiian Punch]

Y’all don’t know family members with true gambling until there is number writtens everywhere: on letters, notepads and anything with paper. Just random sets of numbers scribbled.

Also if you ever had the big red paper at your house.

Have a good friend who thinks he's a profession al poker player. He won 10k one time and ran through that in 1 month. He ain't won since. Always broke.

The thrill of losing is just as good as winning imo.

My parents do. I cant stand casinos. Seen first hand how addicted people can be to gambling.

My neighbors across the street had their house in foreclosure and the bank took their shyt back. They were a hipster couple and I posted about them before....walking into my garage the first day I bought my home and moved in.

So they got a loan to buy the house from their parents but only one of them worked....I think it was the female but I am not sure what she did for a living.

The husband was addicted to online poker and also gambling at the casinos here in Tacoma, WA. The fights they had were epic....cops always paying a visit or loud ass shouting inside and out about how much debt that white boy got them into and that and I shyt you not "My PARENTS gave us 100k for that house and you fukking gave our house away at the Casino"....heard exactly that....

She left him in the house and he moved out shortly after.....got a Asian couple living there now and they are very cool and friendly...

Gambling is no joke man....play a lottery ticket or some shyt once a month but it's not an addiction I want to have.

Many family members, including my close uncles and aunts who had pension from the government and disability checks which is around 8 racks....

They hit AC or Parx and the shyt is gone...

I remember my parents doing it when I was a kid and lost everything. My Grandma had to wire them money because they didn't even have enough money to get out the parking garage....A young breh just wanted some tokens for the arcade. They often left me in the lobby to go gamble since I was just a kid...

FF, As a man they still didn't learn their lesson, so unfortunately I cut them off in some aspects of my life as I won't enable their BS...

My story similar to this. Parents and several other family members addicted to that shyt. Had to get away from them and stop talking to them. Folks really blowing through they paychecks the night they get paid.

My cousin has a gambling habit. Her parents left her with their house (I think paid or almost paid off) and she refinanced the house. Her house now needs major repairs and she living paycheck to paycheck. She always play bingo and loves to go to casinos. She works 3 jobs too. She drinks once in a while and doesn't use other substances so gambling and traveling are her only habits....oh and she likes to go out to ear.

I have a coworker that gets 5 figure bonuses every 6 months and takes them straight to the riverboat. It never made sense to me.

The odds are against you. If you're going to gamble you're way better off making an educated guess and putting it in the market

One of my best friend’s pops...he done lost it all (family, good job, friends, etc.) and is living with his moms now. Great dude, but them horses are his kryptonite.

It's the action and the immediate huge payoff that people get addicted to.

Every horrible gambling story I've ever heard starts off the same way: I won....

that's just basically giving money away. I read a story where someone stole $9,000 worth of those cards and they only won $250 off of all of em combined. You only have a 1 in 10 chance at even getting your money back b
