There's lots of statistics about online gambling figures, but they vary greatly. It seems to be a booming business, with more and more new websites appearing daily.
I was wondering how many myLot users took part in any for of online gambling? And what you think about it?
Can't wait to hear what you've got to say

i some times gamble on line... i mean i mostly play it for free but i do not know once on 2 months i pay 10€ just to get the kick of it. i usually win some money and then lose it... so this 10€ can last for a day or two (sometimes less sometimes more). I play just for the fun of it. But i guess it can become very addictive since you do not really have the feeling on how much money have you spent because in your head it is more virtual. I do not play for the reason to win money and i have firmly decide that i do not spend more than 10€ so i guess this is my "salvation" oh and yes when i pay the amount i pay it with intension to loose it... pure fun!!!

You say you're playing for fun and it seems that you actually DO mean it. You do it for kicks, not due to addiction and your financial limits are very reasonable.
You stick to 10 euros and then stop, you reach your limit and end it there. Good for you my friend, I really admire you.
I agree about the 'virtual' thing. It doesn't really feel like your money, not like in a real life casino anyway. Awareness is vital or control can easily be lost.
Enjoy your guilt free fun and may you be very lucky indeed :)

Yes I gamble on line and have for years. I have won a lot and lost some. I usually only play at one bingo/slots place and have won a lot of money there and they have paid me,It is a booming bussiness but you have to be carefull as it can be as addicting as going to the real casino.

You are really right. Gambling is addicting. It is one of Satan's scheme to lure people to do earthly things instead of turning to God.
