Interestingly enough, me and @Eclipse are working on a gambling related thread... Keep your eyes peeled.

I'm not exactly addicted, but I can say I definitively have sat playing much longer than I should. Actually got into gambling through playing Poker in an online video game with other people. Started at the low-end tables and then once you started making money you just went to the higher and higher tables until you lost everything. Poker is definitively a lot of fun, and although I don't play that for real money that much (mostly because people take it waay too seriously when money is involved) I definitively think its great fun..once you win.
I've also been trying slot machines as of late. Although they're not as social, they're pretty fun when you don't need to put physical coins in them. I particularly enjoyed this site called https://bitcoinvideocasino.com. As for profit, I don't think I've won that much, though I think I can say my win/loss ratio is in the positive.
For anyone reading this wanting to get into gambling, just remember not to spend more money than you would be okay loosing in the first place. Its fun until its not, and when its not just stop playing.

Only time I gambled was on some BTC website where I just messed around with gambling maybe 10 dollars. I'm not into gambling but was interested in how things worked.

CSGO skins mainly. Blackjack with BTC from time to time. My track record with CSGO skins went:
20$ -> 200$
200$ -> 300$
300$ -> 200$
200$ -> 150$
150$ -> 30$
Then I sold the last 30$ of my skins. Should have really cashed at 300$ when I was up high, but so be it I still made 10$. Also that was over the course of 3 weeks-ish, I'd have gambling sprees every few nights and I'd be up and down. So sometimes I'd be get really high but go back to where I was when I started, or vice versa.

I've never been Interested In any form of gambling.
Sure, I had a gamble here and there throughout the years, but nothing significant to warrant a regularity or any addiction. What's somewhat surprising, Is In my locality there's a TV ad saying "Gamble responsibly only once a week". I believe they've put very little thought Into It, and don't realize the ramifications of a one-off bet. I could gamble 150,000$ In a given week and lose my home.

I play poker (5 card/Hold Em). I'm pretty decent. I'm only a little addicted.
