Very good video - enjoyed it and understood the need to speak about it; i've given up after a very long addiction and talking helps so much, either to friends or complete strangers. Stick at it mate, well done.

Personal thinking based on experience. I am a loser in the game of chance. There are three possible goals. The winning-feeling. Outside world is very cruel and canbe very hard. Things are easier on the table. Secondly, the idea that I hold the secret to breaking the game. The powerful insight only reserved for selected people. When I win, I am confirmed that I am those select people. Feeling special. Lastly, the temptation of easy money. Working are hard and boring. The thrill of winning easily.

Thank you for sharing your experience with poker. I have come to the same conclusion about my poker life: Nothing good comes from it. Poker serves no worthy purpose. I make money like a predator in the jungle, staking out the weak. Living the poker life is an outward expression of my selfishness.
So does life have a purpose? Of course it does... to love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.

@Loooogie I understand the Theory of Poker and am more than aware of the odds involved.
The issue isnt anything to do with intelligence at all however it is to do with with addiction.. If you do not suffer from addiction then of course you are not going to understand it in which case dont bother watching any of my videos on this subject.
Is an alcoholic not intelligent as he drinks to much? Just move on.
I will not be replying to you any more.
thank you for your time

@Loooogie Actually I have a quite a good IQ. Infact Compulsive gambling has nothing to do with "being dumb" however each to there own...

This comment has received too many negative votes show
You never had the heart, the will the determination and most importantantly the patience to become a winning poker player.I do give you credit for knowing you were so bad you should quit though.But in a way you are just a quitter...its also not fair to say nothing good can come from gambling,life is a gamble and if you want to get ahead sometimes you have to take a shot.Gambling teaches a person about how important dicipline thought and control are in the game of life.

It isnt a case of not having the heart. to a compulsive gambler nothing can come from gambling apart from destruction.
If stopping something that was causing problems in my life and doing something that improves my situation makes me a quitter then so be it. It also makes me the bigger man to face the problem. If you are happy living that life then good luck to you but I will not waste another minute of my time at the tables.

thanks for the comment. I have found strength via the gamblers anonymous rooms and with the members therein.
To anyone with a gambling problem the most important step is to admit to yourself you have a problem. Only then can you start on the road to recovery.
