I've seen similar players just gambling like 100 BTC per day on slots for example, trying to get the progressive jackpot on Bitcoinvideocasino.
One high stakes player once said in chat that he had won a progressive jackpot of over 1000 BTC somewhere and that he was gambling almost every day after that.
Pretty crazy to think he might have lost it by now, this was about a year ago btw.

I think I've gambled around 4 or 5 Bitcoin in total over the last 3 years.

I personally never gamble like that, nor do I have the funds to do this. Obviously he is not losing more than he is winning, else he wouldn't keep doing this for so long. He is probably close to break even, losing mainly the house edge.

He may be an early adopter with a huge stash laying around not even realizing anymore how much his bets are worth. Could also be a rich guy with a huge bankroll. You see them in casinos as well, making huge bets without blinking twice.

For starters, I don't do much online gambling, but I do promote most of the BTC casinos and play with bonuses for fun. I recently got a no deposit bonus and am playing around when I see another player making bets of 20 BTC at a time. This specific player has been making consecutive 20 BTC bets for awhile now. Obviously he wins some and he loses some, but most of them are losses. What I can't wrap my head around is why in the world would anyone with this much disposable BTC be gambling it away on a online casino. I understand people have gambling problems, bet wow, I can't even imagine having this much BTC to just gamble away. I can think of a thousand things I'd rather be doing with that money, one of them simply being saving it.

So my question for you guys is, do any of you gamble like this? Do any of you have these kinds of funds, and if so, why are you still gambling?
