Hi
Made a new account as I know people irl that know my forum name.
Basically, been doing a bit of gambling past year or so - have got progressively worse from being prepared at losing £5, then £20, then £50 etc etc. I seem to get worse when people around me get worse, then I get easily influenced.
I basically did a bit of research into a few methods of playing roulette and thought last night I'd give it a go on the online roulette tables. Long story short.
I put in £85, lost stupidly.
Put in another £50 on same technique, lost again.
Got a bit mad, so went all out and put another £100 on red to try and recover slightly and it came out.
At this point I had £200 in my balance, still down £35. Then some how using another technique/strategy/whatever I slowly got it up to £420. Didn't really lose, just kept betting £5 - if it came out I'd rebet and if it didn't I'd double it etc.
Basically had another quick go this morning, and within 10 minutes I lost the lot.
Don't know why I'm posting really, my own fault - I should probably quit but I quite enjoy it. Especially if I go casino with friends, its a nice feeling when you win.
I don't even know if I'm addicted, I'm not wasting money which I need for bills - it's just disposable income and I can happily walk past a bookies/casino without feeling the urge. It's just when I am actually there I just turn into someone I'm not.
