was very tough to do, but after the first year, it becomes much, much easier. i remember going to internext in 2001 (my first time in Vegas) and having absolutely no interest in playing at all.
Yeah the vegas style gambling doesnt even call to me really.

Its the multi dime sports betting. The 8k a day betting shit..

Ive got to stop..

But so much of gambling is in my social life.

Im not sure if im gunna have to kick out poker nights and playing cards as well. Never really thought of that as gambling. Pretty small stakes for my taste compared to the out of control sports betting I do..

But shit... Maybe the poker and everything will have to be eleminated.. I really dont want to quit guys poker night, but will have to if it tends to lead me to the desire or urge of the problamatic gambling.

I really dont know.. I just dont know..
