Gambling Addiction
Nobody is always a winner, and anybody who says he is, is either a liar or doesn't play poker.

Gambling addiction is like any other brain disease. It comes through back door and none expects that it is huge. But it is fed and it is growing. It gradually grows into someone's stone tied to the neck or a bucket of concrete with the legs in it. People suffering from gambling addiction notice nothing.
Any kind of addiction can be lethal and it takes so much effort to beat it. Some give up and simply get covered by the ground. Some get support but still get buried, and some have enough guts to fight. But not all of them win.
A lot of people were eaten and spit by the huge industry of gambling. No one cares about your emotions because you choose that way. You and only you are responsible for your life and the consequences.
The Lady Gambles
The movie is about a nice lady who transformed into a shanty gambling creation that cannot differ good from bad. She had a husband and a job she liked but once she lost it all. Actually it wasn't at once. It was her way, her chosen way to gradually losing everything. But at the end there is still hope. What if? But what if not? The Lady Gambles is an old movie about the still remaining problems in the society.
The Gambler
Once you start watching this movie, you cannot resist judging this guy. He is a piece of really horrible creation. It is really difficult to call him a complete person. Everyone likes him but he is taking advantage of others and he doesn't care about other people's feelings, as the debt is the hanging sword over his neck. He is a complete loser and gradually the people start realizing it. The Gambler is good display of a spoilt and corrupted personality.
