A while ago, I realized my PvP gaming addiction was a gambling addiction. Every time I played after that was essentially like this.

 

[Skepticium]

oh no, i can see where this would go. She would go into debt. After have so many debt, her credit score is so low that bank wouldn't even give her anymore debt. Then she must go to a loan shark to fuel her pachinko addiction. Then after she couldn't repay her debt to loan shark she must prostitute herself to pay her loan and pachinko addiction.

It's too late. We've lost her.

The word リーチ actually comes from riichi mahjong, which in turn comes from the Chinese word 立直 (lìzhí, lit. standing upright), not from the English word reach. I think リーチ is best translated as simply riichi.

The Japanese Wikipedia article on pachinko riichi discusses this further.
