FOBT CHEATS?
Someone said on here that fobt were worse than crack cocaine.
Not a bad analysis.
It is so easy to get drawn into a downward momentum of depression, anger and overall addiction with these things.
Play disciplined, play for fun, and remember the four rules

4 rules of gambling:
1) Discipline
2) Patience
3) Never play above your bankroll
4) Know when you're beaten

Words cannot express how bitterly disappointed I am with myself for failing your 'test'.
Dave, I feel that not only have I let myself down but I've let you down also. Oh the shame.
Thanks for the advice about 0 being due. I've just returned from Corals where I picked up £900 just by following your advice. Maybe you are the FOBT King after all.

I am finding it hard to understand what your post is getting at, the only conclusion I can make is that you're using the post to try and convince yourself that the FOBTs are killers and you know deep down you cant run away from them.
Your last post about winning £900 sums you up and makes a mere mockery of this post. Never going to go in there ever again and concentrate solely on hard work blah blah Yer right, you are going down the slippery slope of delusion and compulsion at the mercy of these machines. Beware you may become the lout you derade in the post in just a few years down the line - the lout is probably a result of an spiralling addiction, I pity him and you.
Get Out Now wrote:Hi everyone,
Just discovered this forum. Finding it very entertaining. I would like to share my own experiences with you all if I may.
I started playing the FOBT roulette about 5 months ago. Just a couple of pounds at first and then progressively increased my stakes (an old story I know). I would conservatively estimate that since I started I have been in the bookies about 300 times!! Different shops in various cities and towns. I too had thought that it was easy money and became dissatisfied very quickly with winning the odd twenty quid here and there. Long story short - from winning about £2,400 in a week I quickly lost the lot and then lost a further £1000 through being greedy and very, very stupid.
Being a relative newcomer to going into betting shops I must say that I can't stand the pondlife dregs who insist on offering their advice and watching your every spin. On the day I lost my grand there was a disgusting lout swearing and hitting his machine and even spitting at it and on the floor. He was also challenging whoever was in earshot to 'dare say summat'. I couldn't believe I had allowed myself to stoop so low as to be in the same room as this yob. Sorry if that sounds harsh but it's true.
I know how addictive these machines are and I know how desperate one feels to win ones losses back but the answer can only ever be to work hard in gainful, respectable employment and to stay away from betting shops.
I think he was joking about the £900! he he even if he won that he will lost it today or maybe if hes lucky tommorow!

I was , of course, being sarcastic. I no longer frequent bookmakers.
My period of madness was thankfully brief. The only money I lost was money I'd won which still makes me a mug but I know it could have been a lot worse.
Dave FOBT, let's be friends. Sorry for calling you a tosser.
