@SwanThere's a TV show on called "Sunshine" with Steve Coogan about gambling. It's pretty sad.
I heard of a guy at a golf club who used to spend the best part of £1500 A WEEK on those £250 fruit machines. He used to pump £500 into these machines and not win a sausage. Then when the bar closed. The bar manager used to win all the money. So when the guy came back the next morning, he lost more money and the bar manager did it again.
Wash, rinse, repeat!
And don't think that because this guy was a member of a golf club, he had money to throw about. He was a double glazing salesman and didn't earn that much (it was all for show).
£1500 a week for goodness sake!
