Topic: Dana thought he lost $80k one night and his advice for gamblers - page 2. (Read 1577 times)

On a normal sense, anyone who is active and is watching the gambler play more that he or she usually uses to play should be aware that they are under the influence of alcohol that they have taken and should have stopped them from gambling any further unless they don't care if they pay less attention to it, or it could also be true that most casinos behave exactly as they are accused of behaving, I mean in the line of entertaining their customers with alcohol up to the extent that they will no longer have control over how much they spend.

The facts that he was drunk while he was gambling made him to think that he only lost $80k while the actual amount was three million dollars (that's very funny of him). However such thing is no longer new in the society, if one can take a free time to check most gambling centers he will notice a lot of things. Most terrible things happens in some little betting shops .
I liked all of his advice, and those advise were not just spoken because he talked out of his own experience and since experience is one of the best teacher in life I think he has learned his lesson that it is not good to gamble when you are drunk because you might go broke if you mistakenly stake all the money you have under the influence of alcohol. One of the important thing he said that I liked very well was that seek for help if needed, but some people will not listen fo this because they will not agree that they are addicted to gamble.

Depression is complex. You will be surprised if I tell you that there are rich people too who are still depressed. There is one celebrity who got interviewed about this but I only saw in on the trailer, so I don't know if what is the root cause of it but if I where to guess, it is linked to bullying.

There are gamers who got depressed too and playing gambling is not different from that even though that gambler did not end up as a loser. Those who use too much money has a reason on why they do that.

I think there is no problem with that, as long as they are professional enough to handle whatever outcome they had (especially the losing one). Each can commit a mistake and it does not only occur in gambling, so I won't beat myself up to it. We still can be able to bounce back again though. This is the bright side that we must look at when those hard times come. Not all known people are rich. The naked eye can be deceiving or the media.

So, we must not get carried away, especially if they are like promoting something because they are literally promoting it to earn while we can end up getting trapped. It is like we are the sacrifice here. For those scenarios of being drunk and then bet all his money, it can be legit, so it's really bothersome and not wrong to help them.

Just can't play drunk, it's a direct path to a quick loss, I would even say to a loss with great speed, because a drunk player has no stops and limits. And even if he is very lucky and he hits the jackpot, he will still start to place aggressive bets and will not go home, but will order even more alcohol. I never allow myself to do this, probably because I have seen enough to understand what the outcome of such players is. Maybe someone will tell me that a player can be drunk because he came to relax after a hard day, but not a single argument will convince me of this. In short, I will say that if a player wants to lose all his money, then before the game he must be drunk. I hope smart players will draw conclusions from this.

Just like op have explained, winning and losing is part of the game and we need to be aware of that. Gambling is not for the weak, it's for those that are ready to play by the rules without getting turnoff at the end of the day because they keep making loses. Loses acquired should boost us to create accurate strategy to have a successful winning rather than trying to get depressed, looking for ways to cheat just to make some winnings. Losing 3 million in one might as a result of being drunk should never be overlooked. This can happen to anyone even thought the amount lost might not be as equal to 3 million but we ought to be careful and wise.

Not really just that on gambling field but also in other things as well on which if you are really that under the influence of alcohol then you would really be having that hard time on making out some good decisions or simply cant be able to think up well and rushing up on whatever actions that you do have in mind on that moment or time and since you do have that clouded mind then you will really be ending up on being
careless or wont really be minding up that much in speaking about the risks that it do involves. You would really be only be able to realize all of those things that you have done on the time that everything would go back to normal. It is really just that a usual case but the worst when dealing up with gambling is that you could really be able to make out some decisions on which it will really be causing up that financial
breakdown. 

This is quite funny, losing 3 million dollars thinking it was 80k because he was intoxicated. Being under the influence of alcohol can mess up your state of mind and this might make you do some wreckless things. Don't take such things and gamble because you might not be in control of your actions. I read a story of a man that lost 50 thousand dollars playing a slot game because he was drunk, after losing so much he started kicking and punching the slot machine till he was eventually thrown out of the building by security guards. Always be conscious of your actions.

Indubitably!

I’m a blackjack player myself for a long time. Even now I’m still committing some error due to my miscalculation and emotion on placing the right amount of bet. Most of the blackjack players use table matrix guide and combine it with basic card counting which is very to do if you can’t think clearly.

Dana has a good winning record on his Blackjack game when he is on his normal state. Clearly his sober state is the main culprit why he lose big time and people that is not good on blackjack will suffer terrible losses if they do the same like drinking while playing.

But if you want to just have fun then there’s nothing wrong as long you can limit your expenses while you’re drunk.

We can not think clear because playing gambling need to be aware and control ourselves. If you are drunk, you will not have a chance have fun from gambling. You can feel be more confident with yourself because you are drunk and forget everything you should do.

Playing card game needs to be awake so we can use our strategy properly. And if we are drunk, we can not concentrate with the game and we will get in a worst situation that can lead us to get lost the money. Yes, we should not drink when we want to play gambling in landbase or online because that can disturb our focus and when we lose, we will angry and do something that can harm us.

Depression comes into the time or moment that you have lost up too much money because of gambling neither on sports or in casino games, this is why it would really be that crucial or something important
that on the moment that you do play or engage with these stuffs then always make sure that you are really just that only make use of the amount on which you can afford to lose. Never make yourself
that becoming delusional about playing gambling because this is where people do usually mess up their lives because of the wrong decisions that they had made on.

As speaking with these known people or to those who are really that known figures then we can assume that they are rich people. The money that they had put out or bet on is something that they can afford.
They might be able to make out some bets just because they are drank or whatever condition it would be but this isnt really something that will really be our business but rather its theirs.
Its their money that been used so doesnt matter whether they do make out some bets or not.

Yes, that's definitely the fact that happens with gambling, the advice is reasonable, stop gambling if the gambling activity makes someone depressed, meaning gambling is not worth fighting for as the main game for us.

In fact, some people change their judgment about gambling, they think that many people lose in gambling and win is delayed, that is very wrong, gambling never promises us victory, So think of gambling as entertainment and games only for us and don't use the money that should be used for the family to gamble, that way we can avoid depression a little when defeat befalls us.

The bottom line is that anything that will make you not to gamble responsibly should be totally avoided otherwise it can lead to depression, which is a straight way to addiction. Many things can lead to gambling depression and addiction, one of them is gambling without reasoning like when the gambler is drunk. It's said that we shouldn't drink and drive, I'll also add that we shouldn't drink and gamble because you can accidentally over gamble with more than the amount that you can afford to loose. There's no refund when you over gamble and if you're unlucky and loses everything, you can end up poor and probably in dept too. Responsible gambling must be practiced at all times to avoid being depressed that can lead to addiction.

It happened to me, many times, gambling and drinking is the worse that you could do. Because when you are drunk, you decision are clouded and all you want to do is to go all in, bet big, YOLO style which is very back.


We need to be sober so that we can think clearly, specially in games like black jack. We need to concentrate because one mistakes, you are going to lose big. And moving forward, if I'm going to drink, I'm no longer going to play either landbase or online, because it's really dangerous to me as I'm going to be out of control.

Gambling and drunk will ruin your life fast without realizes of what is happen to you. Gambling itself can make you lose your money plus when you drunk, you will not think much if keep playing gambling can make you bankrupt fast. Dan still lucky because he still have money and not like other people who lose all of their money in gambling table.

It is a lesson for us to stay away from drunk when playing gambling so we can still aware of what already happen. We can stop ourselves if the situation is not good for us. We must avoid the big lose by quit gambling immediately before something bad happen to us.

The real question is why would not anyone want to? That is the point of alcohol. It makes you lose all inhibitions and makes you do things you otherwise would not do if you were sober. No one drunk is in the right state of mind and at that point he probably can't control himself anymore and he can't say that he is making a mistake at that very moment.
Alcohol can be taken at any time. I am not saying it should but many people drink even if it is not exactly relaxed time as you call it. Most drink when celebrating. Or just going to a party for no reason. Some even drink when they are sad or angry. Many emotions are associated with drinking and can eventually lead to bad choices such as gambling too much.

The point is if we are in an unstable state, especially with our thoughts, we should not do anything like driving or betting. This unstable state allows us not to think about the big risks that will occur while we basically do not want any problems to occur, even though sometimes we have to take risks, it does not mean that taking risks is the solution. With us being under the influence of alcohol, it is possible that we will do things that are beyond our own consciousness. If we really want to gamble, then we should be able to see our own condition, try to be in a good condition, whether it is mental or otherwise. With the reality of gambling that is only likely to make us lose even when we are conscious, it is real, so don't gamble while unconscious, it can make us do things that are high risk, such as not thinking about the risks.

Such a choice should not even be given to anyone, especially when it's a choice of getting addicted to gambling or getting drunk, because both are bad habits that can lead someone to commit the unthinkable.
 
The same way a gambling addict can do some things that they won't be proud of, that's the same way a drunk person can unconsciously take an action that can leave a long-term negative effect on their life.

a very funny but very sad situation, just because he was drunk he lost a lot of money, and don't casinos have rules for their customers like maximum bets, how could the casino be willing to take so much money from someone who is drunk, clearly the player will not be aware of his bets

We should not be gambling under influence regardless of what the influence are because all influences are bad. We should not gamble under the influence of alcohol, drugs or peer pressure. Gambling should be an activity that we do with our clear heads so that we can know the decision that we are taking and not to make a mistake that might affect us in the future. Most gamblers lose more when they are betting under an influence and this is mostly alcohol or drugs. Losing $3 million is a big loss regardless of how rich the individual losing the money is. Drake that gambles too much large sum also gets affected after losing those amounts and that is why he does not do it everyday or weekends. If we keep losing our money, we are going to be broke very soon and then we will regret all the mistakes we are making.

As business owner which is something that runs a casino or any other correlated industry then you would really be thinking up on this one most likely. You wont really be targeting into something that brings out that
temporal profit just because some big personalities had lose up big time because of getting drunk. It would really be coming up into your mind that giving off some cashbacks or trying out to have that loss back at least on which we cant really be able to deny that this one really gives out that happy feeling inside or having that kind of emotion on which it will really be leading up with having that positive feedback and impressions.
As an owner then you would really be going for the long term game and not for that short term ones. Even if they would really be giving back some of those amounts but they do know that they could really be able to
get it back in no time. Just like on what you have mentioned that Dana is a huge bettor or spender in their gambling activity and on the moment that he is really that making some good experience towards your platform or business then you might really be able to get some recommendations on which it could be advised into his friends and that means some huge profits out there. This is how business works and it will really be just that normal that there would be business owners will really be prioritizing that end game than on making money on point.
