A great movie that lays out exactly what a gambling addiction is all about.
The character in the movie destroys the relationships that matter the most in life for the next thrill.

It's not about the money, it's about putting it all on the line. The "risk" is the thing he craves.
The whole way through the movie I had a feeling of dread because you knew it wasn't going to end well.

I have sympathy for anyone dealing with addiction.
BUT I won't support it or enable it. I did that for 10 years with my ex wife who was an alcoholic.
She wasn't wen I married her but at about the 7 year mark it started to become a problem.
Have you ever woken up in your bed that is wet because your partner was so drunk she just let go?
After about the fifth time it starts to wear really thin.
