Gambling addiction is a serious problem. You are subject to ruining your life including your family's. Do NOT gamble on credit. If you're going to use a credit card to get funds than make sure you have the actual money in your bank account to pay off your credit card. Play within your limit. If you don't know what your limit is than it's best not to play at all. Remember, all winners were losers at some point so expect to lose money and not just win all the time.
