No need to blame the slots its actually wonderful when we are playing within the limits because its a kind of game with unlimited different combination so its great fun to play even we can play without the real money so the obsession is with the money making not really the slot game. How banks gave loan to someone for gambling or just did with the personal loan?...

So, careful with your slot activity. make sure you are staying away from any loan just for slots. Actually, this case not from gambling sites just playing android games named "Higgs Domino"

Why only for slot? It does apply for all kind of gambling games, as long as you cant control yourself, addiction is waiting for you to damage your life. I'm not really sure why recently there are some threads which sounds like against Slot games too much while in fact there are many other cases in other gambling games. The story of your friend is basically very common thing when it comes to gambling. It is due to the lack of self control from the gamblers.

The problem with the gambler stated by OP, he just runs away and escapes while leaving his family all the troubles.  I hate this kind of person who does not take responsibility for his mistakes.

For now, we should not put a heavy and big pressure on that person since I can't imagined what he's going through right now.

Instead, give him some help as they really need it right now. Sometimes, the people around that person should provide some help automatically without waiting for that person to reached them. After they able to give that person a good treatment and let's say it's about month now of recovery period, they can now worked together on finding a solution to the mess he created.

There is always a solution on a big problem.

^ But I rather choose none of the above, addiction in gambling or addiction in intoxicated foreign chemicals.
In the first place, we should control ourselves in everything because excessive use is detrimental to our health or it will become worst that make our lives ruined. Slot activity is good and possibly profitable for me, probably I can able to control myself from addiction and that is why I am still playing on that kind of games.

True that, it is better to have self-discipline and missed out on a moment of happiness than indulge in it and give a negative impact on my family and friends.  Just like what the guy OP told us.  I just so hope that he can get the courage to face his wrongdoings and be responsible.  I feel sorry for his family that has to carry the burden of that gambling addict person who ran away.
Well this is the factor why gamblers turned into addiction --because they don't have self-discipline, they can even manage themselves.
If we gamble -- putting a limit on ourselves is the best practice not even on gambling, all things become over and will have a bad effect on us. The slot is very addictive game because it can make a quick profit without too much effort, there is no skills require and most of all, you only rely on the house edge which is it is impossible to win in the long run.

I thought you were going to talk about privacy when gambling but anyway this case wasn't only specific for slots but we better say gambling in general. Slot games are known to have a high house edge but even on those lower house edge games, winning on them is still hard and we can surely end up in a debt if we keep on grinding on them only to recover our loss or in hopes of earning more money.

In your story, it says his other friend game him money and it started there. It reminds me when the site that I am playing with give's me a bonus. I then gamble, lose it and end up depositing my own money and then lose it as well but I am lucky that I still have a control for myself and never attempted to borrow money to play again.

There will be really a time that a person should experience a painful thing before they will learn.

It's hard to be in the right mind if the person is dealing with a big loan problem because of their gambling addiction. We are fortunate that we are still responsible for being regular gamblers but other people don't have that behavior.

Yeah, I agree with you, I am glad we are able to control ourselves.  I think it also has something to do with how our parents raised us besides having a more rational mind.

The problem is already there and I just hope that person who is dealing with a $9,000 loan and runs away will found a way to help himself.

I also hope that his family and friends are doing their best to reach out to that person as he badly needed big help from anyone.

Or if that person doesn't change, I hope he learns his lesson soon.

Loan to gamble? That is foolishness. I have known people that were addicted, they use big amount of money to gamble but they lost it all. Some people will go to the extent of selling what they have and use the money to gamble. I have used borrowed money also to gamble before until I later knew I was foolish, but not again. Just that gambling can deceive some people to think they can use it to make money but which is not true.

You are lucky enough to break the habit of borrowing to gamble. Most people around me do the same, it's like they expect more wins. There are many cases, especially when there is an election, where I live, some of gamble use their house for betting if there no cash. As for slots, I haven't found a case like this, but I don't know either. Because I also very rarely hang out with people around me.

Agree with what you say here but indeed sometimes Slots can forget about time which is indeed very difficult to deny, especially if we see that when talking about slots in IDR or in Indonesia today there are lots of people who always do Liverstream on several social media which making a lot of people provoked to do the same thing in large numbers but actually this is what worries me because people don't know that they are not aware or are too naive that the people who do the livestream are actually getting paid to do this.
Thats how thing works on which marketing and at the same time someone do really make out some profits or income on just simply playing or trying to be followed by people or hooking up potential players.
Playing slots on physical phase is something more interesting than on playing through online if we do based up with actual experience and engagement but of course it is really just on the same concept.
Doesnt matter which one you are engage or dealing with but the chances of losing is almost identical so its always suggested on playing for fun and not for making big wins but we cant really deny
that hopes of hitting big or jackpot is really there on every spin whether online or offline then it is really just normal.
In this case, this is indeed a function of marketing like that but on the other hand I am quite sorry to see viewers of Livestreaming marketing like this who think this is the right thing to happen because of the fact that they are quite naive if they believe it is true.
On the other hand I also realize that the hope of hitting big or the jackpot really exists in every spin and I also feel that way but when it comes to talking about large nominals, this must also be limited and game enthusiasts must know the limits in playing.

That is the problem. You should never borrow money to gamble, but you think the OP's friend doesn't know that? It's a self-control problem as you say. In the minuscule hope of recouping their losses they end up making the hole bigger.
Or we can say that in hope or replaceable word here is greed to win seeing others they think they can also have the same wins but are not lucky enough and end up bad.They see others wagering high and having more win and in same lore they also take loans without self realisation and fall in debt trap which ends up bad for them.So it's dependant on ourselves that how we control our emotions and play wisely.

I agree.It is entirely dependent on our ego,greed that makes us do silly things.When we think calmly cold headed we soon realize that gambling is created to be favorable to the gambling house,and the house edge is just there to make sure this happens.Taking loans to beat the house edge which happens extremely rarely is not the best thing to do,the problem is that most people act hot headed,they don't think thoroughly what that action will bring as consequences,if they did,we would see far more little addiction and borrowing money to gamble.

If you're taking a loan to gamble that's a sure sign that you are hooked on gambling and you are a compulsive gambler, if you knew that gambling is for fun and the risk of losing everything in gambling is high you will not even think of taking a loan just to gamble.

My neighbor is in debt of $9000 just for playing slot games. This is bad, considering the amount of money in my country is enough to build a house.
Sorry to hear that, but this is a very high risk and I personally will never take this risks whatever the codnition.
Btw, this may be because he doesn't know exactly how slots work. Betting in slot is likely more to luck and something else, there is no guarantee of winning in slots. We may have small skills but we don't know whether we really want to win or not in slots, moreover of whether we are new to gambling in slots. This is too risky. He may be very stress and depression rght now.
I cannot blame him for this codnition,but this is too high risky activity.
This can be a biglesson for us with his experince to eb ale to careful adn wiser enough when playing slots or other gambling actvties.

Slots are the worst idea to spend so much money on, much less manage to take on debt. I don't understand how some people manage to go to such extremes and ruin their lives and those of their families. I'd rather drink the money away with attractive women in a restaurant and have a good time.

if you got addicted to that kind of activity, you will negatively influence way more people than being a gambling addict.  First, if you got drunk, you can cause trouble in your surroundings.  Second, if you laid too many women, there will be a huge possibility that you will have lots of illegitimate kids.  Worst, you may tend to rob someone else because of your addiction to such activity.  That kind of addiction is worst than being a gambling addict.  At least a gambling addict, his mind isn't intoxicated by foreign chemicals.
^ But I rather choose none of the above, addiction in gambling or addiction in intoxicated foreign chemicals.

A matured gambler allocates time and money to their gambling activity, you only take a loan if you are putting up a business although there is a risk the risk is very minimal compared to if you are gambling it away, or if you are in an emergency situation, taking a loan to gamble is a big no, you will be in a miserable situation if you do this.

Long time not online here and i'm back just wants to share a new case around me that related with gambling, especially slots.

My neighbor is in debt of $9000 just for playing slot games. This is bad, considering the amount of money in my country is enough to build a house.

History:
- His friends share the winnings from slot to him
These are not real friends they show him winnings coming from slots but they did not explain the risk involved, if you hate someone, teach him how to gamble and the amount you can win without explaining the bad side of it, his friends must have hated that guy

Not only slots it applies to everything that involves betting because you'll also get the same results from betting on other games in the casino, you will end up losing.

I think this guy owns a house and land which serve as collateral.  Or maybe there is someone acting as a guarantor for that person.  That makes me think, poor guarantor since he will take responsibility for the debt.

The property is not served as collateral since the family will attempt to sell it to pay the loan of that user. And to have a loan, a guarantor is not enough as we are talking about an overall $9,000 loan here. In most cases, even if the lender has complete requirements, it's even hard to borrow at least $1,000 from the bank. Or if let's say that was easy, how still that person manages to get a total $9,000 loan (or let's say 50-50 as the other half is thru a loan by his friends which I found still impossible) as before taking a reloan, a certain amount should be paid first.

Taking a loan at multiple or several banks is not possible too as there's a background check and they are strict on the approval if there's an ongoing loan to other banks. Using other names is a bit of a hassle too and I doubt the OP will do it.

OP might just invent this story but the main point of that story is true.

Instead of being "careful with slots" people should get educated with slots and gambling in general. Lots of people in my slots 101 thread have played for years without serious problem and I'm pretty sure they won't get into trouble. That's because they are "educated."

I fully agree a gambler should learn responsible gambling instead of being warry of gambling games.

Spending $9,000 for IDR play is crazy, even I won't dare to do that. I don't think I've lost that much money either from years of slotting activity. If only for fun, and not trying to get rich while most likely go broke, IDR 200 play is safe as long as you play at a reputable casino.

but sadly that guy isn't you.  This also reminds me of some news way back in 2018.  The guy involved do a much worst thing than the person OP mentioned.  Did you remember the news about a gambler selling his wife and daughter?  You can reread that news here: Gambler sold his wife, minor daughter; family rescued by officials.
