~snip~ In the beginning I was involved in gambling, at first it was just for entertainment, gradually became addicted, but I was still able to control myself, sometimes I win and lose, so far I have experienced something about myself "gambling money is hot". It's very easy I waste money from gambling, ~
My gambling story is pretty same as yours. I have started gambling for fun purpose. I don't have any intention to make profit. But gradually it become my habit while I started to gamble regularly. Finally I got addicted and lost little bigger amount. After that I took a break from gambling. And nowadays I don't play with large bankroll. Still I have a bad habit, I can't accept the losses, always try to recover back but slowly slowly I go down more. Though I don't cross my loss limit now.
