There is a world of difference between a multi-millionaire losing a large chunk of change without jeopardizing his family's financial security and a $25,000/year Joe-Six-Pack who loses his still-doubly-mortgaged house and his kids' college fund at the craps table.

Speaking from a purely financial look at the situation, yes. But if you're loosing millions on something it can hardly be called "entertainment" any more and should be looked at as an addiction.

How is addiction defined, in this case?

Does anyone know what Bennett's net worth is, so that we can put his loses into perspective?
