Answer by highchaparral2006
Everything I have read and learned about addiction is to replace it. In fact one of my instructor said (in class) that it takes 21 days to kick an addiction. Dr. Phil says replace it with something (positive) else. Good Luck!

do not play poker for 2-3 months and play some other card game
give all your money to me, then you won’t have to gamble away your cash. Its not an addiction if your winning so either get better or quit.
Stop being such a “mark” or “sucker” and thinking your answers are going to magically show up on Yahoo answers? Is that how you approach your studies?
You are supposed to be some kind of student? What have you learned about poker? Here’s a start to the right path:
If you are good, don’t think you are addicted, your just good and it’s fun. Just don’t get carried away. Everything in moderation.
If you are a mark that loses every time you play, seek PROFESSIONAL ADVICE FROM AN ORGANIZATION and stop being so weak. Show up, go to meetings. If you work it, it’ll work.
