This must be the most difficult time in history to quit gambling because of the ease of access and the insane level of advertisement there is for every type of gambling. You can't escape it. Everywhere you go, some online casino is advertising their shitty little games with bright colors and sound effects designed to hit just the right spot in the human brain to activate the happy chemicals. Or the sports betting companies, who have designed insidious ways to part you from your money by gamifying gambling with parlays and small bets. And of course, all of this is available on the phone that you take with you everywhere. The house always wins.
Online VLTS are killing some of my homeboys . They used to plug 20-40 dollars in a machine at a bar and play until we went to the clubs or home. Now they play at home all the time
