Usually as a gambler you are angry with a certain player or team, at least if you lost the bet because they did not score well. Actually, you can only blame 1 person and that is yourself, since you are gambling yourself. But at that moment you can't think straight and you only think about winning. It goes wrong because gamblers see their gambling as work, not gambling. But some gamblers also become aggressive in their behavior if they have lost a large sum of money but have angry outbursts as a result.
I think in this case a lot of people have experienced it, and I myself have done it when I used to play gambling with my friends and I was interested in gambling the card, then I lost several times until the money in my pocket was gone because at Use to pay for defeat, then with ambitions to win and lose then lose money makes me quite aggressive and accuse people around me committing cheating on the game and asking my friend to return my money until we fight.
I did do I do it, and yes I should have been blamed by myself because it continues without stopping gambling and I lose all money.
Rightly said in gambling there will be wins and losses, here only blame is to be given to yourself. You have to learn to control yourself. Gambling is an addiction in which you will always be in a daze. Then when you get profit, you will say that the last time you play, when you lose everything while playing, then that last time will make you destitute and you will be cheated.

Yourself and no one else, the problem that may take place is the one that you created when you first start your gambling session, there's no one to be blame on every action that you take, especially when you lose a lot and you keep trying to recover your money and if you go deeper and you have more losses, you should be responsible for your actions.

Gambling issue can only be cured or can only be prevented but never be blamed by anyone else.

Yeah, it's a harsh reality, but it's the best way to move forward in life, by taking responsibility of your actions.

Also, it doesn't matter how bad things get, you can always create a good life afterwards, so no need to feel so bad anyway.

It would be a lesson learned, that's the whole point of having memory, to not repeat the same mistakes again in the present.

I think this case is relatively very small as co.lated to a recent thread I just stumbled on where a player sued a casino  wmfor not raising an alarm after he has lost over fifty eight thousand  dollars($58,000) in a day in just gambling and I couldn't  stop  laughing  out loud, like what the hell will someone intentionally gamble and intentionally  loss such amount of money and still has the guys to point fingers at the casino  for not raising an alarm and that if an alarm was raised, then It wasn't raised enough.
I think with all of this recent happening,  there might more disclaimers by casinos  so as to avoid any unnecessary embarrassment  as I find this very embarrassing
Well, we live in a world with a lot of crazy people, some to the extent that they do things like this. A mother and her son gamble away a significant amount of money and then blame someone else for it, a gambler placing a huge amount of bets and losing a hell of a lot of money and then accusing the casino itself for that. I mean, it's crazy, isn't it?

Such people should be treated the way they deserve it, they should be punished for doing things like that so that others learn their lesson and don't stand up tomorrow trying to pull up something similar by getting inspired by these crazy role models.

Of course, losing makes us irritable and upset, but why look for someone to blame if you initially understand the risks and take them on yourself?

As far as I know guilt has a very negative effect on a person's self-esteem and can lead to even more serious consequences later on, so it is quite possible that a person always tries to find someone to blame on the side even when he understands that he himself is at fault.
Very nice thought regarding the issue. A person should gamble after well researched and realizing its risk. A gambler can win or defeat. So if someone lose in gambling, there is no basis for others to blame. A gambler must focus on his self -esteem, it is not a solution that is excited after the gambling defeat, rather it makes the gamble more heated. This type of behavior of a gambler can have a serious impact on the gambling.

I don't like the punishment or fine give  to them. It is not going to be in anyway effective. Their punishment could have been rehabilitation and community service.

I don't like the aspect of option of meagre fine aspunishment either. That is exactly my challenge on this crime that I can't get my head over with. Some punitive measures are just as good as not pronounced because they don't in any way measure with offenses. I have some issues with some legal system because I think a punishment is suppose to wade people off a certain crime, what is pecuniary fine of 150,000 (about $210) as option against a jail term of 7 years or a crime of squandering $8,000 do to prevent future perjurers in gambling crimes.

I agree with you that the fine should have been higher. The sentence of 7 years however, I don't understand the reasoning for it. I always thought that the monetary value was supposed to be somewhat equivalent to then sentence, ~$210 is far from near the equivalent of a 7 year sentence. I think a more appropriate option is to refund those effected in full (5.6 million naira) plus a fine, or a 1-3 year sentencing for each depending on each others level of involvement. This seems more accurate in my eyes.

People don't want to think about the negative consequences of gambling, they want to think about the good feeling and the euphoria that is experienced when they have won another bet and the bank account has just increased again. But those are things that don't always go well, of course. I also don't know exactly how gamblers deal with big losses, some will become depressed and don't want to make this known to the outside world, for example. Gamblers all deal with losses in their own way.
People who don't want to think about the negative impacts of gambling will be easier to be depressed when they experience losses. Ideally, every gambler must learn the negative impacts that they probably get as a consequence of playing gambling. So, they won't be surprised when they get losses or lose money instantly. Unless people gamble for fun only, so it shouldn't be a serious problem whether they win or lose. However, whatever our goal in gambling, we must have good management of our funds to spend in gambling. Never out of control by spending huge money on gambling because we can't control our emotions to chase winning. We are better to limit our funds to spending daily or weekly, so kindly stop playing gambling when the funds are over. In this way, we won't get huge losses or spend money excessively.


Oh, isn't it fascinating how the shiny lights of the casino can hide the potentially gloomy alleyways of gambling's consequences? From the neurobiological standpoint, the rush of dopamine experienced during a win can eclipse the reality of a potential loss. Isn't it peculiar how our brains work?

Surely, you'd agree, there's an urgent need to emphasize responsible gambling habits. But here's an unconventional thought. How about we introduce a 'Gambling License', similar to a driver's license? Prior to entering the world of betting, each person would be required to undergo a series of courses and tests. They would learn about the psychological impacts of gambling, the statistical probabilities of winning and losing, and strategies for effective money management.

This license could expire and require renewal, thus ensuring ongoing education. If we can license people to handle cars, why not something potentially as dangerous, like gambling? A lot to chew on, isn't it?

Yeah, spot on.

The thing is that some people don't want to believe that gambling is probably not a great way to get rich.

They basically want to have hope that they will have a chance to be rich by gambling.

But in reality that is even more improbable than mining a block with a USB miner these days, which is already incredibly improbable. Yet, many people still solo mine with USB blocks.

Blame your maths teacher if you want to blame anyone external to your own decisions.  If you learn maths and various dynamics like statistics and probability theory then you have a far better chance of comprehending risk vs reward on any game.  If you know when its a good pay off vs a risk not worth taking you are better off already and can steer to avoid losses not that there is ever any guarantee but I feel people better able to gauge their progress will do better in appreciating a good sequence of wins and when to quit with those gains.  Ultimately a person can or should only ever consider themselves as the captain of their own destiny but opinions vary.

It is a great answer, and yes, when they start to calculate, applying all kinds of mathematics, statistics, they will be able to realize that no one can be blamed for having gone wrong in a specific game and yes, the responsibility will always be the player and no one else, the possibility of a casino making a mistake, or having an error with a player, is very low, normally these things do not happen but it is within the possible things and that, as transparency is required, a casino must assume that he had the error and the player must be paid, although I have rarely seen something like this, it is very possible that it happens, I am not saying that always but yes.

Some could just simply move on and play again
Some would really be completely stopping on the time that their initial bets had been bust out
Some would really be just come and go as long they do have the funds.

Its not really that bad on considering on dealing up with gambling as long it would really be in controlled manner.You wouldnt really be that ending on being impulsive if you do
really make out those kind of self realizations about gambling and on the risks involved into it. People are really just missing out the main idea on what it is
and would really be just mainly thinking on making themselves getting rich despite of the reality of it. They do really just missed up the real point.

Yes, this incident arose naturally because of that person's loss. When after losing a large amount he felt somewhat embarrassed. He could not control himself and took out his anger against the casino because he lost a big amount ($58,000) at that paltform. I'm sure the way he got addicted to betting he would have continued his betting if the alarm work correctly. This is only an expression of his anger after his loss. He just consider it as a way to relieve himself. Many gamblers do this by trying to control themselves by blaming others when they lose excessively.
yep, that's right. in an angry situation a gambler will vent his emotions on anyone who he thinks can understand his defeat like a friend who becomes an angry victim of a gambling loss and that is just naturally unintentional and I'm sure his friend doesn't take that anger seriously because it's only natural that if gambling loses it will definitely anger venting on others.
I myself have experienced problems like that and I tend to blame the casino when I lose a few days without winning but it's only for a moment and after a few days I still come back to the casino to keep gambling to entertain myself.
sometimes someone who can't limit betting is the wrong condition that causes it to be difficult for himself and blames other people.
It's not really that kind of bad anger. It just happen for short possible of time. Because gamblers cannot be angry with others. Especially they are always busy with their gambling. But sometimes when they feel a little too embarrassed at a big loss, they can blame others. But the interesting thing is that other people who are present at that moment also realize it. Although a gambler should not engage in such behavior, it should be considered normal if it occurs in some cases.

It's understandable to be emotional when we face losses while those who can't control their emotions tend to blame the casino or someone to relieve the pain. But after composing himself that's when he'll realize that it happened because of his own decision and no one is to blame other than himself.

Hence, before starting to gamble, ask yourself if you can handle the losses. Because gambling is not the answer if your main goal is to win huge. If that's your main desire and not to have fun, don't gamble because playing with high expectation can lead to disappointment if what you expected didn't happen.

Precisely as I just commented in another thread, it is a desperate attempt made by some problem gamblers after realising that they have lost too much. An attempt, usually in vain, to regain what they have lost. The problem they often have is that they get into an emotional state, a gambling binge, where they act impulsively, gambling more and more, until they lose everything and have nothing left to gamble. It is only afterwards, when they return to a rational state and realise what they have done that they do these things.
