3 Did pokeraffect your reputation?

4. Have you ever felt remorse after poker?

6. Did poker cause a decrease in your ambition/efficiency?

7. After losing at poker did you feel you must return asap to win it back?

8. After a poker win do you have a strong urge to return and win more?

9 Did you play poker until your last dollar was gone?

10 Did you ever borrow to finance your gambling?

11 Have you ever sold anytihng to finance playing poker?

[doubleup]

fck still 20 out of 20

[ACE2M]

18 out of 20 for me a few years ago but now i'm a good boy (5/6 now.

The two that i missed were 17, i sleep like a baby and nothing gets in the way of my favourite activity in life and 20 I wouldn't be able to play poker anymore so thats out of the question.

[tikay]

A nice one-liner in here said....

"...I'm 19, but when I weas younger...."

Is there such a thing as yoiunger than 19? Jeez, makes me feel old.

[RFC]

How about question 23

Do you gamble every day ?

can you say no to that one 

[Colchester Kev]

I think discovering poker has probably lowered most of our scores, my obsession with the game has certainly stopped me wasting money on house games, and those bloody roulette machines in the bookies. 

As for the gee gee's, I now only bet selectively and with the internet betting facilities, i dont get tempted into betting in sellers/claimers and cartoon racing, which is so easily done when you are in the bookies.

So all in all, THANK GOD FOR POKER

I noticed that the questions were past tense, i assume that if your in the GA programme(even in the initial stages) you are deemed as a non gambler?

This is why i agree with what you said, i answered yes to 19(no to the suicide) but if they were aimed at the present/last 6 months I'd be looking at around 3 or 4, this is uniquely down to me playing internet poker full time(supposedly full time, half my allocated playing time during the day is pent by me watching will and grace or wandering aimlessly round the living room).

11 - is that bad?

[thetank]

I answer yes to Q5, and no to Q8. Otherwise I'm the same as Snoopy.

So I'm close to having a whole different problem. 

That's if you define poker as gambling.

Which it is really, anybody who thinks differently is welcome to that opinion, but should never ask me to lend them money.

[snoopy1239]

Is it possible to answer 'no' to all of them except question (20)?

[bolt pp]

Is it possible to answer 'no' to all of them except question (20)?

Maybe if you lived in a country that forbids gambling of all kinds and were so desperate to gamble that you couldn't bare living in a world without fruit machines and placepots, but was, at the same time incredibly confused as to why you had such strong urges to gamble never having done so in your life

(dont look at me like that! its a feasible scenario)!!
