Default tips for dealing with a gambler?

My former roommate (became close friends) is a gambler, has a good government job but up to her neck in bills, 2nd mortgage, etc because she goes on gambling binges (i.e. 10K in a weekend). I have tried to be supportive, helped her set up a budget, helped her find a counselor, etc... I am now out of sympathy and she just called to tell me her car was repo'd this morning...she wants a shoulder to cry on and I want to scream at her about her financial stupidity! Any tips
