"But I used to have a bit of a gambling problem. And that would have been the answer to my prayers. It got worse when I started playing this character, too"

Fisher Stevens is describing his past struggles with betting addiction. He suggests that if he had been able to win big at betting, it would have been the response to his prayers. Unfortunately, his dependency just became worse when he started playing a character in a film or TV show. This quote highlights the dangers of betting dependency and how it can become a lot more tough to handle when one is in the public eye. It also serves as a pointer to be conscious of our own behavior and to look for assistance if we find ourselves fighting with an addiction.
