A GAMBLING addict has revealed how she blew £70,000 in just four hours – losing almost two years salary in a single afternoon.
Christine Tolaini, 39, said her addition caused her to become bankrupt after she managed to max out all of her credit cards.
The hairdresser was first introduced to gambling when she was allowed to play on the 2p and 10p arcade machines and admitted that she always loved betting.
She went to Las Vegas at 21 and even got a time-share hotel room to visit once a year.
But as she entered her 30s she stumbled across more means to bet, Christine’s habit escalated.
