Do you lie about your gambling?

[EverFresh]

I'm sorry to say that I do, usually to my wife and my family

[Fishhead]

Ever- Welcome to the Rx. Good question.

 

[Java]

My attorney will be more than happy to handle any questions on that subject.

 

[Duckstabber]

EverFresh,

Yes, I lie to Ms. Duckstabber about my gambling.

 

[Java]

Duck-
What was her name before you got married, so that Duckstabber was an improvement?

Ever-
What percentage of gamblers lie to the IRS? ( over 90% -110)

 

[Dante]

nope I do not. I have "permission" if you want to call it that unless it becomes Illegal and the damn gaming bill passes and.

as long as I do not take the kids college fund

 

[exilarch]

I'm like most gamblers.I crow when I win,and keep quiet when I lose.

 

[Frankie5angels]

Constantly

More so football season then any.

I cannot help myself. Sick Gambler is my hero and I wish I could be more of a man like him. Talk to you guys later I am so ashamed I am going to go through my mail and get my uncle Yuri in Boston an account and hopefully he will split the referral with me to make up for the few lies I told my girlfriend today.

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

I don't lie to anyone other than to myself from time to time.

One lie leads to more lies. I try very hard to always tell the truth.

Sleep better too

I don't tell her more then she needs to know. A few years ago we were building a new house and I had won a pretty large sum betting college football that year. Smartest thing I ever did was toss her 5 dimes and told her to fill a few rooms with some new furniture. From that day forward she never says a word about my gambling. I also don't dip into the investments or anything like that. I put a set amount into about five accounts and hopefully it lasts the season.

If my wife gave me shit about my gambling, she knows that she would be kicked out of the house. as long as i provide for the family, my gambling is my business.

 

[valdosta]

No, but I am not married.

 

[RPM]

have never had to, that i can remember...

One of the best facets of online gambling,



No guys watching you cash tickets forming "gotta deuce" lines behind you.

used to have to lie to just keep them guys away in the old days.

 

[parlayin]

i rarely talk about my wins, but complain about my losses all the time to my friends. that way they think im' broke and dont ask me to pay for stuff. the few times i tell them i had a big day, they expect you to uy them dinner and all that...which makes no sense since my betting bankroll is completely separate from my other money. plus, if people hear that you always lose, they can figure you also win, or how else can you afford to lose so much

 

[Woody0]

I don't exactly lie but I do underreport my winnings to my wife. She's just happy to be going on a 10 day Caribbean cruise next week, after reading a flyer and remarking that she'd never been to Curacao and I said let's go.

 

[valueman]

nice thread - i used to report everything to a 1/10th level so the wins were not so obscene and the losses not so frightening.

 

[NotYourDaddysShotgun]

I don't lie about anything

 

[rush__man]

we both work make about the same amount. the deal in the house is she has full control of the accounts (which means she also has to balance them each week) and i get a monthly amount for myself to do whatever i want - no questions. works out really well.
