I am thinking of those machines that are like slot machines. They are very addictive. I hope that Californians are satisfied with the lottery games we have today.

I started a thread on the Discussion Forum. Please read and add any of your wisdom.

Thank You California Lottery Commission on keeping those machines out of our State.

We live by laws and rules that we impose on each other. We do not need more problem gamblers.

I played, didn't win big, so I'm going to blow somebody away.

I wonder what his LP name is.

At least he admitted his problem, usually it's not the problem gambler* that goes to GA at first (or any such org.) it's a family member or friend that says, So and so has really got a problem.

*Known in Vegas as degenerate gambler, or just degenerate.

People are desperate and have very little nothing these days. Sad about what is being reported. Once the gambling hotline finds out someone's info and they are on that list that is it.

Ouellette was jailed in Marion County without incident, troopers said, but was later released... [ More ]
