It's not illegal to deposit by credit card if it's legal in your state, but sometimes your credit card company will jam up the transaction if they think it's fraud. Most of these sites seamlessly let you pick any bank in the country and do a debit from a checking account.

As far as getting addicted, yes, it's very easy. Sports aside, I have probably spent hundreds of hours playing stupid electronic blackjack and had some awful runs. But, by fluke, I took a bonus from MGM and am up a few grand because I couldn't cash out and just played and kept winning one day.
