    Yea, it's insane how not just Michael but most of Vice's interviewer could take so candidly with people who kill other, deal drugs that end lifes ect. And I like to think he didn't get into that stuff when he was at vice, cause not just him but many other vice interview's have to deal with being around drugs not just reg drugs HARD HARD HARD drugs cause that's what got the views and clicks I guess. And it's hard to say no sometimes. Been clean 2 year's and I still think about going back from time to time. It's a demon in my head and every addicts head that wont shut up or go away, Even with time. I now at 32 understand the meaning up, "Every day is a battle".

    I'm with you, I only play at casinos for quite a few reasons. Besides robbery there are way too many ways the private places can run cheats or collude together, I seen it myself at the one small stakes private game I played at (for fun) with people I'd played a bunch at the casino and taken stacks from ;but at their private game they never lost a hand and made zero mistakes. When I got home with the feeling in my gut that something wasn't right I looked up RFID cards and the first search result showed the exact POS cards they were using and I even asked them why they weren't using casino decks to which they replied the cheap cards were all they could get even though they run a regular game.....

    @@KirstaRunner I'm from New York and they just legalized sport gambling and now it is extremely popular with online companies literally giving you money to start betting. New York is doing so bad with revenue they couldn't resist legalizing. California is in the same boat yet New Yorkers didn't vote on legalizing sport gambling, the government just decided to.
