“I Was Gambling on Chinese Ping Pong & Japanese Tennis at 3AM” | The Dark Reality of Sports Betting Addiction
What happens when a $5 bet turns into a full-blown gambling addiction?
In this powerful episode of Nothing’s Off the Table with Louis Ruggiero, LJ sits down with Rob, one of the loudest voices online exposing the predatory world of sports betting and the mental destruction caused by compulsive gambling.
Rob opens up about how it all began — $5 fantasy bets in high school that spiraled into tens of thousands lost on FanDuel, DraftKings, and illegal bookies. From betting on Chinese ping pong at 3AM to losing everything on a casino bathroom floor in Paris, his story is a raw reminder that you never win against the house.
Louis also shares his own painful moments — stealing checks, chasing losses, crying in casinos — and how both men found recovery through honesty, accountability, and helping others.
This episode pulls no punches on:
⁃ The truth about sports betting apps and predatory marketing
⁃ The psychology behind compulsive gambling & chasing the rush
⁃ The destruction of families, finances, and self-worth
⁃ The real path to recovery, one day at a time
