Gambling Addiction in Las Vegas

[MrJim02132]

there was a twilight zone episode about this



[RegGlobTheBlogger]

This guy is such an idiot he actually thinks he can get rich by gambling just from playing the slots?! wtf lol. NOBODY I mean NOBODY gets rich off of that game. If you want to have even the SLIGHTEST chance of getting rich off of gambling you gotta play either poker or sports betting/ horse racing GAWD! I wanted to friggin slap him silly from the moment he said he wanted to get "rich" off of playing the slots friggin idiot!

[balambenjamin]

You can only win if you know about Money Management. It's not losing if you don't win, it's losing if you lose it all.

[KingKuba1313]

lol at playing slots.

At least play something you have a chance at like poker or sports betting.

[brad22314]

Thanks to the poster for this truthful insight. A casino recently opened very close to my home Worst thing that could ever happen to me. I will attend my first GA meeting this week.

[ajaykeer23939]

Hey atleast you got a job, car, and home... not lot of people got that.......

[ajaykeer23939]

is this real story of your financial situation or you just making a fake documentry trying what you think gambling addcition is

[9tn8ty]

Thanks for posting this video. I just moved to Vegas and was really bummed out when I went to a casino and lost $200 at Vegas Club in Downtown.

Interesting about the door handle on his van. I also own a minivan and the door handles constantly break off. I've also had other minivan owners say the same thing about their vans. I wonder why this is such a common problem? People shell out good money for vehicles and we expect to be able to open the doors on our vehicles, for God's sake!

[chevrierc]

I lost 20 thousand, its like a nightmare,,,,, its like a hell,,, i barded my self from casino

[zekehooper]

$200 for a nice cammera that probably cost $3000?

[zekehooper]

does he just play the slots or does he play some table games?

[godson124]

[Cafer2011]

Thank you for sharing your story.

[badabing1075]

good for u bro...glad to hear u are done with being a slave to the machine...I as of last week am giving up on the casino. Im done. Good video, I'm not alone.

[monkimind]

Good for you man. I'm 22, I've lost 8 grand in 4 years. I'm fighting off this demon too. Finally realizing that I can't make money doing it - the odds are against me in any type of gambling. I don't get the rush either when I do win, so that's good.. there's no emotional motivation. I know what you went through, or at least a little bit. For anybody else out there that is trying to stop, just try to understand that mathematically you will lose over the long-term if you keep gambling.

[saginPhx]

Inspiring video and how real you are. I have been there and at times slip back into it. It is difficult and hard to explain the self-destructive feelings that go on but you hit the nail on the head in your video. Good luck keeping away from gambling and I am fighting my demon also. Like another poster said, you don't know unless you have been there the absolute emptiness you feel as your last dollar slips away and you can't do anything about it. It's a dark place to be.

[chevroxy]

I get gasoline before I go to the casino. Dude is bad ass though,he drives a car without AC in Nevada

[spunright]

I have never paid attention to gambling until I met someone I care about who is an addict. This is insidious and evil. It should not be legal. Anywhere not legal. I hate this now that I know what it is about.

[coffEKolor]

You have to simply get OUT of Vegas!...By you doing this show they know you will do WHATEVER it takes to get thet.."high"...When you have money..you don't use it right,you sit on it for a minute and then you go right back to the SAME casino..to the SAME machine?.That's gambler's rule no# don't EVER take the money you won back to the SAME casino!..What kind of sense does that make?...You also don't know how to pace yourself..don't go EVERYDAY,if you worked 2 jobs you would be too tired to gamble!

[grapesda]

what you doing playing slots thinking your gonna win. gotta play some poker, count some cards and play blackjack or a little craps, all slots players will eventually lose

[ninefivesuited]

He should have bet on "black".

[tosti24]

Thanks for sharing the video. I hope is all good now in your life. Peace!

[lillybug73]

you never never did i say never play a slot machine but for fun i gamble for a living but not slots

[gwenparker24msncom]

You really kept it real. Wondering how are you doing today...do you still have the problem...I am battling too!

[kady7869]

Good luck. You seem like a decent guy. Hope it works out for you.

[CANVECVIDEO]

Ooh you tell me about it man, i've been to it and it almost ruined my life, gambling is the most selfdestructive thing you can imagine!!!

[sji1212]

Absolutely eye-opening, honest, poignant account of a fall from grace. Thank you for such a dramatic lesson about the ills of gambling. Hopefully, you are still on the wagon and perhaps you should consider taking your story to the national media. So many people are now where you were and can benefit from this truly inspiring story. Good luck in the future.

[RealRoulette]

i will help anyone, check my videos out.

[salamancaa]

I am from Morocco; I came to this country in 2002; I worked very very hard but I put all of it in the casinos. I lost more than $100,000. because of this addiction i am going back home next month

[parisianna87]

what about people that dont even have enough money to put in the machines.

[alwayson09]

When I hit the bonus it reminds me of tat feeling you first get from a good hit of rock cocaine.

[PeedaWeeda510]

i got 2 grand on the patriots tonite - 14. Lets go!

[jgrindness]

Thanks for the video. Very positive. I found your videos, cause I'm making the decision to stop gambling myself too. I can understand everyway you felt when you lose all your paycheck in gambling weekly after weekly.

[tony232cool]

I am a gambling addict too. I have been going to casinos for 5 years and now have almost no savings and 11K in credit card debts. Thankfully I still have my job and no one at my work is aware of my gambling addiction.

[cleanuptomcat2]

amazing documentary! im an addicted gambler myself and i agree with everything he says...gambling is ugly and i honestly i think its worse than drugs, this shit fucks you mentally and emotionally..it ruins your life and yet it is so hard to quit...thanks for the video god bless

[CaptBenSisko]

That stinks that you lost all that money. Thanks for sharing your story. Hope things work out in the end.

[abdulkhan78]

I hate casinos, I start gambling on January of this year up to now I lost $35000 all my saving is gone. I agree with this guy, once you get addicted it's really hard to stop I think the government should take action against these casinos, because casinos fucks people's life. oh and the casinos said if you addicted we class for you and those class doesn't work at all

"Sometimes I do stupid stuff, sometimes I do things that are kinda cool. But thats life". I like that. Simple.

[lauriela09]

there is free treatment for gambling if you live in Vegas (The Problem Gambling Center} It saved my life. Hope you read this and get help

[wegotpokermoney]

great video man theres alot worse things you could be doing.i hope you hit it big

[rfwelsh]

$35,000 over 7 years is $5000 per year or $600 a month or $20 a day. Don't beat yourself up too much. Make a change, get your life back on track. Some people spend $10 a day on coffee. $20 a day ain't too bad.

Thanks for sharing and all the best getting yourself back on track.

[jgrindness]

@rfwelsh Yeah I agree, it's not bad at all for 7 years. I've only been gamble for 5 or 6 months, and I'm already more than 7k in the hole. I'm actually live here in Philly due to my work, but I'm moving out of this state as soon as I can to get away from gambling. I've made my mind today that I'm about to quit gambling.

[sir10lee]

Man! Only people that  have been there truly know!

[sckrbt]

Stop playing slots. That is the worst game to play. Study blackjack, craps or poker.

[walleye359]

some of the things look pretty sad.. hopefully you got your air conditioner fixed. i go to vegas every year, and spent enough there. but i only take $1200 for a week. it is an addiction. even when you win it's not as high as it is a low when you lose.
