I like online poker, obsessed with it for awhile last year, but for me, gambling is self-limiting. The element of chance means I can make the correct decisions during a hand and still lose. This angers and frustrates me (puts me on major tilt sometimes in fact). Coupled with an abhorrance for risking the loss of more than minscule amounts of money (talking pennies here), I can only gamble in freerolls and with pocket change. I feel very fortunate about this, because otherwise, I think I'd develop a very serious addiction.

NEVER USE YOUR OWN MONEY TO GAMBLE NEVER! if u have to gamble dont do it on intternet where u have no chance to win
HOUSE ALWAYS WINS...instead why not just use like 2€/month to what ever u like? in REAL LIVE where u can win unlike net

I like to place the occasional bet on sporting events.

I've found that gambling is OK as long as you're only doing so for fun and can afford to lose the money. When your motivation to gamble is because you're trying to win back money you've already lost you have a problem.

I never use online casinos.
