thanks lips i agree also with the point that you are stating about people who sometimes gamble beyond their means using gov.benefits or  some who gamble with others money (mom dad wife or hubby).Some with great jobs even overdraw bank accounts or go thru extremes to keep gambling.What im trying to say is i personaly would not want to send a copy of my pay stub ort the deed to my house to any1.My state id utility bills should do just fine.We must also keep in mind every1 is different like lucky8s is saying and if a red flag is thrown the casino should look into it.I just dont agree with the manner that they are trying to go about it.(and let me add as a parent of a teen son my heart goes out to that family.I dont know what i would do if this happened to me).I gamble and deposit but i set a limit that i dont go over.I feel i could easily become addicted if i dont pace myself.This thread is great for 2 reasons.It brings to light what some people want to keep in the dark and as you state the passion of lucky8s is almost plausible ,you can actually feel it.Thanks for the posts,they have really been helpful in doing a self check of myself.
