He's only hodling one and a few million Doges (can't say even if he hodls 'em or not as no signed message has come up yet).

Over half of the crypto services out there are gambling related it seams.. Quite a shame. :/
Crypto scene is full of very young people that got some easy money in the early days of Bitcoin.
A lot of them will "try" gambling, IPO/ICO, Ponzi and so on, thinking that if they got easy money once, it's gonna happen every time...
Unfortunately I think that the number of those that do gambling for fun, with amounts they can afford, is not very big.
There are still a lot that think it's some sort of high profit investment.
But this happens actually in real life too. The numbers are smaller because of age limitations, but in the end you'll find quite a lot of stories with people losing everything.
Some will read and learn, some will not.....

A sad cautionary tale indeed. Threads pop up like this frequently. Sorry you lost.

Good luck in the future.

Can we have a signed message please OP just so we know you are in fact in control of that wallet? lol! I know but if this is true this must be one of the biggest gambling losses i have ever heard about with bitcoin and it is a shame if true, i really want to know for sure.
Please give us signed message when you come on

True, to prove himself to be the owner, he should sign a message.
That being said, "Greed is the mother of all evils".
It won't let you stop/control yourself unless you lose everything you have.
You should know where you must limit yourself to save yourself from such situations!
Agree with these, we should see a signed message op then if you provide the proof someone can write a book about you after giving you a interview of course and maybe even donate a few bucks back to you depending how good the book is and how much it sells.
GAMBLING "What not to do"
you should have withdrawed at least a hunred bitcoin, you have to control your bank Can we have a signed message please OP just so we know you are in fact in control of that wallet? lol! I know but if this is true this must be one of the biggest gambling losses i have ever heard about with bitcoin and it is a shame if true, i really want to know for sure.

Gambling isn't bad until you can't control yourself. Never bet what you aren't willing to part with. Many of us may have withdrawn much before we hit the amount of profit you did, and more importantly before you let yourself lose it all.
Well, I have a gambling problem and I will ask my "Shrink" for help. My problem is that I like to play roulette. So long story short, I made it from 650 Bitcoins, where almost 600 were pure profit, to one. You can check it here: https://blockchain.info/de/address/1GJ7EMh9JyyBAKteQZLHXn8jbHz5ymfCqW And 340 Bitcoins from my winnings are not even in the Blockchain, als I only had them ingame (roulette) and sadly did not cash out until I had lost everything.
So here is my warning: Never gamble! It is just not worth it! Not the money, not the nerves. I also have played roulette wiht Fiat money in the last 10 years, my total loss up to date is around 25'000 Dollars. I now only have 1.4 Bitcoinis and 10.250 Million Dogecoins left...Now I just have the money to make ends meet.

650 btc. I would be puking blood if I lost that much. I think you better go to AA.
sorry to hear that gambling ruined your life man.. We've seen other stories like this but yours is more brutal losing so much money in a blink of an eye
Not as bad as you think when you do think about it, he won around 650btc which was mainly profit and then he brought something for around 40 btc i believe and then lost most of his profit.
So really he only lost his profit so he never ruined his life although he could have had a much easier life had he not done that. The main thing is to live and learn.
for me getting a chance of being multimillionaire, considering where the prices can head, is a live destroying event.
Of course lose 650 BTC from my own pocket would be worse
In away if you are seriously attached to money that you add up the losses of the future lol it could well be a 'life' destroying event but to a normal person he won some and he lost it again this is the life of a gambler, so at present minus his 40btc he brought something with that is still a hefty 170k ish!
yes it is a lot but i have just thought i cannot see the casino's paying him out all this coin as profit!
Something smells fishy when you think about it lets see a signed message from that address please OP

I was about to say fat chance of becoming a millionaire from 650 btc but that is very doable
Poor OP!Few questions if i may, over how long a time period did you win the 650btc of course roughly?
How long did it take to lose again 'roughly'?
Thanks i am super interested.

Possible for you to at least sign a message to prove that the address is yours?
If yes, then it will actually prove it to people that someone really lost something big in gambling...
Whether this long story short is genuine or not, this should seriously teach a lesson to the greedy ones...
Never ever gamble more than you can actually afford to lose...
