Of course, we would wish to get our money back, but once it is gone from our hands, it cannot be recovered.
This is a classic trick used by scammers to deceive beginners in gambling.
They attract them by making them win money in the beginning and then take it away in one shot.
That's why having presence of mind and self-control is a necessity to survive in today's world.

Do you wish the site can refund your money??
what will be the main reason you will get a refund from a casino where you spent your money and even drained your pocket?
all gamblers know, there will be opportunities when they start the game. they win or lose. when you cannot limit your ability financially when playing gambling, then that is a disaster for you.
Gamble when you are mentally and financially ready.

Everything is a choice, of course, and no one can force anyone to do anything unless the person wants to do it voluntarily. These scammers with such games in marketplaces and public places do persuade you to play but they don't compel you since at the end of the day, it's your own choice if you want to play or not, you can always just walk away.

What makes us play is our greed and not anything else, even in online gambling, our greed makes us gamble initially and then it makes us gamble more and more sometimes to win more and sometimes to recover what has been lost.

I don`t have such problems. I don`t lose everything in casino and i don`t need to try to return some money back. I know that there are some gamblers that ready to bet until the have nothing to bet, but it is their problem. Someone can use this problem  to get profit, but you can go to the police if you`re sure that you was cheated.

Yes, in the case mentioned in this thread, it seems that the girl was forced or fraudulently convinced to gamble in a market of his country, and the OP was curious about this is also a thing in online gambling. In the original case, it is reportable to the police, and if you can get proof about anything similar but online, you should be able to do it too.

So gambling should always be a choice, but reality is not always so easy. We are talking about being forced or cheated, but what about those people who have no willpower and can't help but play? it is not clear to what extent they decide to play. The same is being discussed about cigarettes, and to what extent do cravings cloud judgment.

My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??
Do you wish the site can refund your money??

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.


Of course gambling is our own choice and we should not be forced by anybody into it. In my country public gambling by unlicensed individuals is not allowed and the police will arrest you very quickly. I have seen such games in the past while on vacation, but always asked myself why would anybody gamble in such a setting? You are obviously getting scammed by some shady people and you should know better than to trust them. Why not gamble in a casino instead where you know at least that the games are fair and not rigged? I am sorry for the woman to lose it all, this was a valuable lesson and she is never going to fall for it again. Why should a casino refund your money? It's part of the game that there are winners and losers. Just because we lose one time doesn't mean we can get a refund. Because then the casino could also ask for a refund if we are winning the jackpot and they have to pay us the big money.
It supposed to be our choice but sometimes there are people trying to convince us to gamble since they promise that we can earn a 100% sure profit if we register under their link then if we properly used their stated strategy. That's one of few reasons why there are newbies claiming that they are been deceive and regret their decision since they are not fully committed on what they are doing, so to avoid feeling rigged we must know the risk upon gambling.

Sad to see that many learn a valuable lesson after they lose their hard earned money from unrealistic expectations.

We must feel disappointed because we have experienced defeat in betting and we will experience that. We cannot hope the site will return the money we used to gamble because we have gambled on their site and lost.

At this cause some gamblers will tell you they prefer going for pay back bonus in other to help them reduce lost of their entire money in the gambling attempts they made using a particular amount as stake, this kind of losses alwa increase the interest of gamblers on a hunt for bonuses, but it is very important to always note that you shouldn't gamble with the amount you can't afford loosing.

Playing gambling is everyone's choice. Some want to gamble and some don't want to gamble. If you want to gamble, you must be prepared to experience defeat, where defeat is a sure thing in gambling. Meanwhile, victory will not always come to you, so prepare some money and enjoy playing gambling and stop before your money runs out.

Everyone gambling must have expe this defeat in one way or the other, but most of which were caused by the gambler because of their pattern used and experience in gambling.

that's why we have to gamble with money that we are willing to lose and don't play gambling if we are still thinking about losing because gambling doesn't always get wins, so before gambling you should think consciously about the money that will be spent on gambling whether the money is needed or cold money or not used,

It's taboo for me to use money for household needs and use it for gambling because of course that won't give us a lot of money to win, so we gamble with money that we are ready to lose, not gamble with household money or other people's money, let alone family. life has a choice including whether you want to gamble or not

Gambling is a choice initially, until one has gone beyond their means. Actions are still a choice after this, however the choice is not just to gamble, but to try and fix the mistake that they have made. This thought process is usually what causes gamblers to go down the hole that is hard to return from. It can only be stopped once the loser can accept that they can not recoup what they have lost, and that gambling is a negative sum game.

That is exactly what happened to this woman, and no one should pity her. If you are going to gamble, you can not expect it to be fair. You also should not cry if you lose.

In fact, it is true that gambling is a choice for each person that cannot be forced because gambling will only deal with defeat and when we lose we also cannot ask for the money back.
It is very unlikely that if we lose at online gambling, we have to be angry and cry to hope for our money back, but if it has become our own choice, we will definitely accept every risk that will be obtained, such as defeat.
So there is no need to force other people or yourself to gamble responsibly at gambling, it would be better.

Right gambling is completely based on our choices like if we are interested in it then we wager on our favourite bets but if we don't like then nobody can compel us for wagering our money.But if you say about feeling sad then on each loss we face this situation and it's normal but this is why they say not to become emotionally attached to it and have stop limits as well.

Something happened in my locality and I just wonder if that's how we also behave in the online space.

So, they're always a group of rougues in my country, they're often sited in the market place where there's a reasonable population, what's their work???

The have things in a martch box like stones and sticks, they'll ask you to pick the one out of it that has something, depending on what the want....

At first, when you pick, they'll let you win so as to drag your attention, then subsequent wins, you'll be at the losing side and the make sure the drain your pockets entirely.

So, just last week, this lady fell a victim and she was shouting and crying, the had obviously emptied her pocket and even gotten her phone from her in the process of the gambling.

This has been in the internet  for many years that gambling like this in the streets(though they are differently initiated ) there are similar patter and this is to let you win in the  beginning so youll continue playing and that is the start of your burden.
and actually I also find this way in some gambling site , that there are what we called beginners luck? but the truth is they are manipulating the system to make you feel at ease .
sorry for that loser but I think this will be a lesson for her.
Gambling isn't only our Choice but our obligation as well.
we will not lose if we don't allow this to happen (i mean lose completely) it is normal to lose some amount but continuously?
then there must be greedy attitude inside then.

      - When you enter a casino, it means that you yourself are aware of what can happen, it is impossible not to know that there is a risk in what you do gambling in a gambling online.

Now if you lose, and it even leads to you paying personal things to the casino, it is because you are trapped by your own greed or ambition to recover your loss by thinking that you will win the next time you bet, that's it your mindset, which is not good.

This type of gambling is rampant in my country. And they are set up by a group of unkept criminals whose sole intention is to rip people off their money. They attract people by announcing their big wins so as to gain the attention of passersby. I have also seen a man that understood the trick and kept winning until they became angry and attacked the man intending to collect their losses from him.

Every gambler intends to win the bet. Even those that claim they gamble for just fun don't want to lose a bet no matter how small the stake is. We are not happy whenever we lose a game and I have never seen any gambler celebrating his losses. But the amount of loss will determine our reactions. When you lose heavily, it could lead to worries, cries, sleepless nights, or even sickness. You keep wishing that the betting company will refund your money back. But when you gamble with what you can afford to lose, the effect is minimal. You will not feel too disturbed when the game didn't go your way. It is your money, so nobody should tell you or force you to use your money against your will. That us why gambling is for mature minds and not for the underaged.

That is why if your mental constitution is weak, you should never, ever get into gambling especially those that can easily excite you and entice you into spending more money the more you play the game. That is a common strategy that these platforms/people are doing in order to stimulate the minds of the gamblers to spend more, and I'm not surprised that there are still some people that are believing that much in "beginner's luck" that they tend to push it too much.

Can't really blame the people who continues to perpetrate these gambling practices - it's still working and it's still profitable, thanks to these gullible people.

I would not call anyone to be weaker than others, just based on the way they gamble or the way the manage their own money. Gullible is a more correct adjective, people let the magical thinking and the feeling of perhaps being more special than others to take over them and in the end they get massive losses.

"My neighbor won some money in the casino, I bet can I do the same"
"I know mathematics, I bet I can bet the system"

So on and so on. We need to be fully aware of what we get into.  Roll Eyes

Anything you do is always your choice from different options you have as well in gambling, because you cant gamble if you don't have money to bet, and you are no choice.

I don't get the story of the lady on what kind of gambling she entered, but it looks like she is addicted to gambling and got her senses then cried out of losses.
While refunds in gambling is not possible you should think ahead if that already before doing gambling to avoid such things.

I can't categorize such activities as gambling but tricksters swindling their victims and nothing more,  I am aware of that kind of fraud happening around the marketplace,  parks and any locations with high population density.

This has nothing to do with a casino since the operations casinos follow a license guideline unlike those activities that os pour on the use of magic and other mystical acts,  best practice is to mind your business and avoid that fraud stars
