Default Re: gambling frowned upon

like alcohol, gambling has ruined many the life of those who couldn't practice it in moderation - the reaction of those folks is to then vigorously attack it if it played a role in damaging their lives.

I had a girl I dated who was a bit uptight about it - turns out her mother was asian and a helluva gambler - another one I dated had her grandpa blow his retirement in 6 mos. in WI casinos - so she wasn't cool with it either.

just the way life goes, I guess -

I dunno but when i told my nan i played internet poker she frowned and i am in her bad books now. This puzzles me coz she blows like 50 - 100 a week on bingo. Double standard granny alert

Im pretty sure the correct play here is to stick it in her pooper.

My whole family is full of gamblers, so I guess I'm lucky.

My brother used to goto a casino and win 10-20k at craps at times. But he picked the wrong game I guess because mom pays some of his bills lol.
