As the title says, What first got you into gambling, and what keeps you coming back?

It is because of:

a. peer pressure?
b. early exposure to it?
c. social influence?
d. the dream of winning big and have a good and better life?
e. to cope with stress?

I also put up a poll vote so we can understand it more. As for me, it's more of the early exposure to it, whether inside the house or outside. I remember when there was a family gathering when I was small, I will witnessed older relatives playing card games. And obviously my father is a gambler as well.

So let's see others might have other reasons to gamble.
