Don't worry. I once forgot to put a decimal on a dice game and instead of betting .0001 I bet 0001 (1) coin and with my luck lost 3 times = 3 coins. I asked for a refund for my mistake and received nothing.

If you won, you wouldn't have asked for a refund, would you?

Well... Here I was planning to have some fun with BitZino... Threw some serious BTC on it, and started playing, hoping it would last an hour.

And then, 30 minutes later, input a extra zero, and bet 1000mBTC by mistake... and notice after I press the bet button, and end with 30mBTC

I look at the screen, shocked, sweating, looking for a surrender, cancel, undo, whatever button, thinking I must NOT lose this.

And then I get dealed a TERRIBLE hand.

Poof, that is how you lose 350 USD in a stupidity.

Now I think cassinos should have a feature that warns you that you are betting 10 times or more than the average of your last bets and ask confirmation... Just in case you pressed a extra zero Sad

I have seen worse way to lose 350 USD.. scammer.... Smiley

Another way:
Go to a dice site and play on 80% + xD
Lost 3.5 + BTC that way, over $1000 now x_x

Funny thing is that this post would never exist had he won that stupidity bet. You want gambling protection ? Don't gamble.

Actually, if I had won I would still write about it...

As soon as I noticed I made a wrong bet I noticed how fucked up it was and decided to write about it.

and the problem is not really losing the money, but losing it TOO FAST, and ruining my fun (not because I lost, but because I could not play anymore...)

They have a max bet option. Something I haven't seen at any other site. Might want to use it next time.

Sorry to hear this happened OP! I don't think it would make sense for the casinos to warn you that you are suddenly betting high, since it's a common occurrence.

Sorry to hear about that, but I guess it happens to the best of us and we learn!  I screwed up yesterday trying to bet on sports, and accidentally bid on the wrong team!  I know I'll be playing closer attention next time.
