If you enjoy sports, does placing a bet on a particular game or individual enhance your enjoyment or leave you too nervous of the outcome?

1 Answer

Answer :

I grew up in Vegas and was surrounded by gambling, so I never really had a desire to gamble as I grew older. I did play the slots once in Lake Tahoe when I was 20. I ended up winning $250 and had to quickly switch seats with my friend. He was 21 and was the only person in our group that could claim the prize. I was lucky I didn’t get caught!
