Gambling addiction is considered a taboo subject in Austria. Yet some dare to fight it and try to claim the lost money in court. Player lawyer Julia Eckhart from Styria is assisting her.
Styrian Andreas (name changed) is 41 years old. The world was his oyster, but then he fell for slot machines. 140,000 euros are gone, his existence is destroyed. He repeatedly took out loans to finance his gambling addiction. To feel the tension as the symbols spin on the individual reels in the machine and, at best, line up next to each other. Because then the ruble rolls! He doesn’t even notice that he has already lost his winnings twice. This moment is too beautiful.
