Shyness in gambling will always harm you in a different way because if people come to know that whether you are a gambler than it will hurt you much. Not only if you lose money through gambling it might affect your family in a different way, while gambling you have to be very careful.
If a person is addicted to gambling they why will he shy to play gambling? I think that only new comers will feel shyness while playing gambling tell they become familiar and addicted to gambling. I myself felt shy when for the first time in enter a casino but never after that.
I am really astonished to see comments of different people here supporting and contributing in discussion for being positive in gambling. Some are ultra legends that they are trying to convince others for being addict in gambling? And some are literally advising with stupid and lame logic to become a gambler here. Brothers what really had happened to your minds?
