I try not to be unsympathetic when they're at 12 Steppers, but I'm totally clueless on their issue.
Yep. I was hooked on drugs, but I can go to the casino and make twenty bucks last two or three hours, and never put in another dime.

But, from reading about gambling addicts, they seem to have very similar behavior patterns regarding gambling as I did with drugs.

For this reason I'm not a fan of the "addictive personality" view.
