I can really place what made me start gambling, but it was easier for me because I was a very strong sports person. I enjoy watching and playing different sports. From high school, football (soccer) has always been my favourite, but I also loved basketball and tennis, and I played when I had the time. However, I wasn't as good at them as I was at football.  So after high school, when I was about to move to college, that's when I discovered sports betting, where I could place bets based on my predictions, and make some money out of it.  "Sounds easy", I thought to myself back then, what a fool I was. I had no idea it would be this difficult to predict and win, but I don't regret it, though, because it's something I enjoy and my wins cover my losses.

Then online gambling wasn't that popular, we had to go to sports betting shops, but after a short time, everybody started playing online, and that was when I got into other online gambling but I didn't find them as fun as sports betting, plus I lost more money there so I reduced the way I play them. Now I'm more focused on sports betting, but I try other casino games from time to time.
