In my younger days, I would get so barreled in it was hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have read a bunch about this subject, and a person will seek the absolute most risk and thrill at the age of 26(average). I have always had the talent for gambling, it just took me years to harness it. Good Luck
Everyone here has seen Owning Mahoney right? Movie /w Phillip Seymour Hoffman about a Canadian banker who commits various frauds to get money to support his gambling addiction... Really amazing film. The last scene is chilling for people who have had problems, or known people who've had problems.
Once I had to borrow a few Gs from the girlfriend (never doing that again).....once I had to max out all my credit cards with a vendor that would cash me out (idiot)....and once I went on a payment plan that took the entire offseason to pay off....
if we are talking simply betting (not how fucked we were), then I don't think anything really tops the weeks/months I got addicted to horses

When I got barreled in big time friends were putting in bets through me. .. we all knew the Max was $2k... towards the end I was getting calls from friends to put $1k and $2k on certain games. ..I called in 2k the paid way to get 3k and 4k in action on the two games....lost both and nearly killed myself
