The one that gets to me is having other forms of entertainment beyond gambling.
Hm...

I am not much of a believer in non-physical addictions. To simplify it I just think it is weak people with little discipline.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

"Play only for fun, and often with friends". I am committing double faults every day.
Gambling is a math contest where the score is tracked in dollars. Try not to get a negative score.

Do you think a brain is not physical? You cannot know what it is like to be inside another persons head.

I got startled by those too, until I realized they're guidelines for recreational players, to help keep it fun. I fully expect people who gamble as a business to play a bit differently.
May the cards fall in your favor.

Of course I don't know what it is like to be in someone else's head. I am sure I would be frightened as most people are morons.
