Charles Barkley has sworn off gambling. After being publicly humiliated by a lawsuit filed against him by The Wynn Hotel and Casino for failing to pay off $400,000.00 in gambling markers, Charles announced during the TNT NBA playoffs pre-game show last night,"I am not going to gamble anymore. For right now, the next year or two, I'm not going to gamble. I have no, no money problems whatsoever. Nobody's coming after me for money," he said. "I screwed up and didn't pay them in a significant amount of time. Could they have handled it differently? Yes. But it was my fault."
