Life of a gambler.... Good or bad?

You play poker, roulet, or slots?

This is a story about my friend who is a gambler ...

Everything I'm going to write is something from my perspective, watching him play and thinking about whether gambling is good or bad for all of you playing such games ...

We were in the coffee and through the story we came to the subject of gambling, he told me how to deal with gambling and how he learned how to fool the casino and took the money lightly, of course I did not believe it and never will I still think it's all his a way of fooling yourself and denying the fact that the gambler ...

He explained to me the gambling technique, how much he managed to make $ 1,000 every month for gambling, and still did not believe it, but when I thought about everything and saw what things he owns, I wondered if all this really was true.

Since I had some spare time I told him if he wanted to go to the casino to show me how to gamble, of course I went into all this with caution because I know a couple of people who have lost everything because of the dice ...

We came to a nearby casino and asked him what he liked most to play, telling me that most money earns on roulette and that is his favorite game ...

We sat on the roulette, he played I watched and watched what he was doing and playing, assuring me all the time that the gain was safe and that I had nothing to worry about, of course I still did not believe ...
n his pocket he had about $ 500 and was constantly telling me that he would definitely double his money, I was silent and watched him play

He played for about an hour and was just losing, I saw he started to sweat and he did not even know what to do, I asked him why he does not work now, he told me he did not even know that this casino was not good and that we have to go to another casino to get the money back, we went to another casino and it was not good either, we went to the third casino and it was not good ... until all the money was spent did not want to stop, I said he does not have to show me the technique and believe him but just do not go back again ...

I've noticed a big change in behavior, he no longer wanted to talk and just think he was going to go home for more money ...

I wanted to prevent him somehow but I could not, that gambling addiction was stronger than he and he did not want to stop until he lost everything ...

That day he lost nearly $ 5000 ... I could not believe what I saw, every time he put more money on the table, he assured me that it was time to get it

We went home, he lost everything and the next day he went again something he would get but not nearly as much as he lost ...

A few days later, he sold a cell phone, a laptop, and a TV so he could go to the casino ...

I think you know what to think about the casino, get away from it!
This is not the place where you will be well, it is a place that will cost you everything in life not only material but also your family and friends ....
