Do you gamble? Small amounts? A lot? Would you say you have a problem?

I do small bets with some pocket change when I play poker, because everyone knows poker isn't fun without money. I also have a big thing for gambling in video games - whenever I got money in Red Dead Redemption or Far Cry 3 I'd go put hundreds of (virtual) dollars into cards. Red Dead was great, because even if I lost I could just take a gun to the dealer and take my money back. Good times, good times.

Do you gamble, NG?

Nay, for me, the risk of losing the money I already had outweighed the slim chance of gaining any more

I used to play some poker with friends every now and then, but with very low stakes.

After 16 years of bad luck at everything, I've pretty much taken the hint.

Yes, but I eventually quit, because the odds always seemed to be stacked against me. Luck was never on my side. I lost more than I gained anything.

On the contrary. I brought a deck of cards with me every day I was in High School and played poker with people I sat with at lunch. We didn't play for money or anything at all even once and it was still fun.

When I have one or two spare euros and there's no street musician nearby I buy a couple of those lucky leaf clover scratch cards, that's about it.

Years ago when I turned 21 I played the quarter machines and lost 20 bucks. Never gambled since.

In real life I don't because legally I can't in video games though I gamble a lot. Sleeping Dogs gambling system was pretty cool. Betting I think 5'000 Yen on a cock fight is awesome!

Only when the gamble is statistically beneficial.

In moderation.

Best part about these midwest casinos is they are cheap as hell. $20 can last an hour or two, if not more if you win.

I don't play for money, but I do enjoy a round of poker for fun. I'll never see the thrill in things like slot machines, however.

Actually, I once did play blackjack for money with a few buddies, but the bets were only 10 cents.
