And what exactly does that waiting for a day or two would do? That doesn't help at all. That would just prolong the process of you losing some more money. Even with a big loss, someone who's addicted to gambling would still gamble. Actually, that big loss was just added to his goals. If his goal back then was to get 3BTC (for example), then with the big loss, his goal now would be to regain that big loss and then get 3BTC. It might be a sad truth but that's just how it goes.
