Scuds, I can't think of anything I'd rather do. Take my bike and borrow a kayak, go out to some empty Northwest coast and spend the summer in a cabin doing nothing but reading, writing, hiking...(sigh)...I love the city, but part of me belongs to empty places, too.

Hey Jerry,

I hardly see you on messengers anymore. But I got a couple of stories to tell you. I really wanted to get all Helmuthed on them. Seriously.

Catch me online man!

That is close to one of the stories where I opened on the pair called all-in on the flop when it gave me the 3rd and the guy who called needed the turn and river to get his stupid straight.

I wanted to get Hellmuthed so bad!

You are out of control. If your parents didn't let you live with them you would be homeless. Get some help. LEARN SOME DISCIPLINE TOO. You clearly are a compulsive gambler.

Default i feel ya seattle

I feel the same way you do. I am 20 and live at home, and work about 25 hours a week along with going to school. I am fortunate enough that my parents don't make me pay rent or I would be in real trouble. I get paid every friday, and there has been a few weeks where I have lost my entire check the very next day at the track like an idiot and was forced to go without spending any money (cause i didn't have any) for an entire week til the next check. I was atleast smart enough to fill my gas tank up before I went to the track because in my head I knew I was probably gonna lose it all. So you ask if I knew I was gonna do it all why did I do it, because it is an Addiction and is hard to control. I am getting better and better and even if I don't bet, I am still very interested and love the sport of horse racing. Good luck with getting help with the addiction, and I can feel your pain.
