    I have exactly same experience here, except my gambling addiction started playing cards with local friends, and then online poker made my addiction compulsive. I couldt forget my loss due to poker in very few days and then Blackjack and Odds made it even worse. I know i am good and deciplined poker player but Online poker.. it can never be fair. I am stupid to believe on it. My online blackjack experience has been horrible, its really scary. One shouldnt try it. It is worst among every other online gambling and you cant even trust Online live blackjack, and not even in Casinos in your town. Any type of gambling is a addiction. Think, Gambling as a business? It cant be pure. And we are ready to put everything here. We are loosers actually to start playing . But if we can give up gambling, we are even better them who have never gambled. I am struggling to quit but of course even now I will be glad to play if I get chance. :). I wish I can stop all the gambling business in the world, or i wish I can donate my life to reduce it.

    Do you really believe that Gambling has become an addiction on you? I think that it is a main question here to ask yourself/myself? Addiction is a sickness/disease of some kind of habit. It makes us bad than we are without this habit. Addiction affects our thinking and beheviour. But by the time , i believe it can be cured/recovered. As you said, we can be of better character than we are now. I still have the same thoughts as U, but it is not helping. I am gambling again and again. Thus I have started thinking like “I have an addiction /a mental disease, that needs treatment. But of course I can help myself more on my treatment by changing the way I used to think before.” Yes, m loosing selfrespect bcoz of it. But nobody noticed it.:) I believe, I have been recovered by 1%. There is long way to go but I am sure my treatment is not going to affect any my daily work besides this. As you said, you are not afraid of ur next bet, but my problem today is I am afraid of desire to put next bet bcoz as you said I agree that We all are one bet away from becoming compulsive gambler AGAIN. I repeat AGAIN. I also dont want to say, i am recoveing, but I will definately shout one day in this way “I HAVE BEEN COMPULSIVE GAMBLER, GAMBLING CAN’T BE ADDICTION ANYMORE” This is my plan. For this i believe, we should find a practical meaning for our life, we should be motivated on we are doing and on our plan. We should know that we cant follow money and run after it. It will follow us, if we do our work and if we are on the right path. we should never give up just because of some unsuccessful attempts. We will made it, everybody have unsuccess story, on different forms. Everybody have gone through some kind of depression everyday. This is how life continues…

    Hi, Can you say the same thing through your facebook account, and let people know ? if yes, have you done it? if not, why do you think that you can’t? Please don’t take it as my challenge to u. I am not rude either. I am impressed with what you have written. But i am confused if it is the truth.
