casinos are opening up all over the country and people go to casinos for entertainment and a place to be alone to get away from their problems outside of the casino, but they can make a big problem in the casino, it's called compulsive gambling and my own definition is gambling more than what you can afford to gamble with, people are invisible to this disease and say i don't have a problem, the ones that rack the credit cards, the ones that don't have a pot to piss in, they have the problem, i know many people like this cause i was once a gambler, the life of a gambler is a lonely life, espn should not put poker on the channel cause younger dumber guys get involved in a game that really just supports commercialism and you really should play cheap 5 dollar games with your buddies if you ask me, i heard of people getting thousands and tens of thousands in debt, maybe even hundred thousands as well, so here is how i will tell you how to CONTROL your gambling HABITS
you start by putting 1000 in savings and then you set your PERCENTAGE of income you want to gamble with, if you don't like to go broke spend 3% of it, if you like to gamble a lot spend 10% of it, so say you make 1000 bucks gamble 100 bucks, then when you have 3000 bucks in savings bring 200 bucks, then when you have 6000 bucks bring 300......cause you already gambled 10% of 1000, 10% of 2000, and 10% of 3000......100 + 200 + 300 = 600 = 10% of 6000, you see.....you only gamble a FIXED PERCENTAGE OF YOUR INCOME, hope this helps! what's cool too is you can bring more and more, like 100 buck increases, so your odds of winning go up as your bankroll goes up!

you need to find something else to do.......
