Well the time in my life I have to choose is the pathway of gambling or the pathway of not gambling :wink: . Anyway reading a thread in another section about a guy who lost everthing has made me think alot.

All of us will one day get bored of putting money into a machine and hopefully getting more out, and right now I want to stop playing machines and start living a normal life without machines.

Over the last two and a half years I have made lots of friends on here in the same situation as me, wanting more money, winning on machines, going out having a beer and playing a fruit machine or two.

I have been offered a job with good money and a chance to really work hard and make good money. After the passing of Kevin it has made me think alot what is important in live, and thats why I have decided to hang up my re-fill key and call it a day.

It will be hard as fuck to give up playing machines but its something I want to do.

Will still be popping in once a week to see how you guys are etc etc.
Thanks for making me so welcome guys and I wish you all the best.

Matty

Good luck Matty, although saying that you shouldnt really need it if yer not fruitying :lol:

Can you not play for fun and socially like i do? ie i am going to risk a tenner on this fruity, if i win i win, if i lose i lose and thats the end of it.

Well done Matty mate. I've recently started to only play socially, i.e when im out for a night out, or for a meal or something.

Defo a good idea, I think if all of us sit down and the end of the year and see a IN and Out of money going in and out machines & gambling in general you will be at a loss.

All the best.

Because too many people are just starting. Where I am if I go out on the fruits, i'm guarenteed to at least see 2 players. If I go out at a peak time, they are everywhere, it's so hard to make money, the only way to do it is to do it full time. ::COUGH:: DUNHAM ::COUGH:: ;)
