    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…

    Happy Trolling!

    Glad to see you got it under control.

    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.

    hey vballray7, there are countless stories in all walks of life of those who have come back from the abyss of this disease, prospered and became whole again, the main thing that helped me, forgive the past,accept it as part of your life experience, everything eventually passes, main point, determine here and now to be your ideal person, write your own success story the way only you can, determine to be in the winners circle of life.
