Do you gamble online?

Do you gamble online? If there was a ban put on gambling online (for the United States) would you stop gambling online? Or would you try to find a way around it?


Also, what type of gambling is it?

*edit* also, do you support the ban on online gambling, why or why not?
 
I gamble... if you count playing Moola gambling. I did lose $3.42 the other day though, I'm trying to recoup.
 
i support the ban. i would lose less money online. wait, but i'll lose more money in vegas...ok i still support the ban bc i'd rather enrich US casinos than offshore companies.
 
A little bit, I have a few friends who make livings playing poker online (think anywhere from 30k to 800k a year).

They all pay taxes on that income. I have no idea what the hell they'd be doing if it wasn't for poker as they pretty much suck at anything else...

Also, it's fun to place a few bets on sports games. Like this year's super bowl I didn't really care for it but betting on who would get the first TD and who would get the first penalty made it exciting to watch 🙂
 
I tried it a few times, years back, but I always felt like the software had the boogie man in it, and when I won a couple times I got the run around and it took forever to be paid.
I figure with real casinos nearby, where I know if I win, I can take my money and run, why bother with online?

I'm not real big on gambling anyway.

You can multi table online...
 
I'll gamble only if it's free money like Moola. Im expecting my payout check of $10 in the next 2 weeks. But online gambling, no way.

Not to mention that it's just a waste of time and money, but it's tricky too.

A few years ago, I was stupid and I installed a CD to play online gambling games from a gambling website. They said if you install the CD and sign up, you get $100 for free. I installed the software, registered, and I turned that $100 into $350. I tried to cash out and they said that I had to make a cash deposit first and I to triple my deposit in winnings in order to cash out.

Some woman with an accent even had the nerve to call me and ask me why I hadnt made a deposit and what I thought about the website.
 
Roulette online and use to play Poker 2.5-3hrs everynight...haven't played like that in months though.
