Well, a gambling addiction is very, very similar to a drug or alcohol addiction. A person who is addicted to gambling will make it their top priority. Gambling will be more important to them than their job, their family, their friends, their health, etc. They'll miss their son's bar mitzvah, their daughter's graduation, they'll take their 10 month-old baby to the casino with them. They will arrange their entire life around gambling.

They will also be going broke pretty quickly. Gambling addictions seem to cost even more than drug and alcohol addictions. I mean, a bottle of cheap vodka costs only $10, but a gambler can throw away hundreds of thousands of dollars in a NIGHT. Even the biggest crackhead on earth can't smoke two hundred thousand dollars worth of crack in one night.
