Problem with online gambling, and gambling
Mainly roulette tables I have a problem with
But sometimes sports betting as well
It's more the stakes that I escalate to that is the problem
Losses in the hundreds or thousands at one sitting I can't justify, but I have stopped losing thousands since three years ago
I could never justify that with my income
If I limited my gambling to a loss of five bucks per month or something maybe I could justify the expense, but it still can go up to hundreds per month and I don't want it to
The main problem I have is sometimes there are strategies, that make logical sense, particularly for poker, but I go over my own bankroll limits, at other things, particularly in times of losses
I feel disappointed because I want to enjoy a five dollar poker game like a normal person
But I realise if I lose 5 dollars at poker it could escalate to losing hundreds on sports or roulette quite quicker than I could prevent
And I dislike that
So I need to stop and/or change
Affected by gambling?
