All sorts of gambling - and especially online gambling - are extremely addictive. It's the winning that does it: when you've tasted that, the inevitable losses seem to be a coincidence. But then comes the point where you really have to pay to earn your losses back. From there on, everyone feels the pain of a gambling addiction. Child or grown-up... Nothing educational about it.</p> Is there such a thing as educational gamblng? All sorts of gambling – and especially online gambling – are extremely addictive.
