For rich people then this wont really be a big issue but for those who do have only average income or finance status then that would really be a regrettable things in life.

Everyone has a different level of financial. and sometimes the problem is someone over do it than his limit. the most important thing is to be able to restrain yourself and know your own limits and financial, self control is the most important thing. because when the money is in hand no one can control our own desires other than ourselves. do not equate financial level with others because it will definitely be different.

Being rich is not an excuse to get addicted in gambling because there are so many rich people and their stories about becoming poor again because of gambling so this might also happen if you didn’t control yourself. Losing millions of money in gambling is already alarming and a sign of addiction to me, better to get off and start analyzing your gambling activities before you continue.

One of the primary reasons why people stay addicted for long is to win big. They think a big win will solve financial and all other problems in their lives.

For this very man greed was his problem £20000 is a huge sum that can afford a very lucrative business. Giving such huge amount on gambling shows his high level of greed and people of this kind can do anything just to make money not minding if it's legal or not. I wish he recovers soonest because this can cause a man to commit sucide.

but he regrets this the rest of his life , meaning he is also a small time gambler who only tries his chance of a lifetime but failed . maybe this will be remembered all the moment of his precious life how he managed to lose a amount in which can change his life for goodness if chooses the right decision.

This is why if you dont like to fucked up yourself then you should be aware on the risk about gambling addiction.You shouldnt tolerate on what you do have in mind.

Gambling is for entertainment and never intend to make it as a source of income because if you do then you would surely be having problems later on.

It is a good lesson for us not to use too big money while we can build a new business that can give us profit in the future.

There are lot of other useful things we can do with what we are spending in gambling but while gambling you will ever realize this fact which is the reason why you are spending all your hard earned money in gambling in quicker manner. I am sure this kind of lessons have been shared in this community for more than one hundred times still people are committing same kind of mistakes again and again which means people will never learn anything out of this forum but each and everyone coming up with their own lessons for others and that too after losing big bankroll.

They've been trap in the mindset and urges that if they tried to play again for another chance they will get back the amount that they lost. Trying their luck and lucky time came they win at first and then trying again believing that they will gonna win again but all the amount that they brought on the gambling site losted again and worst they fell into debt, additional debt. I think I saw this kind of scenario in the movies but I know this is happened in the real life situation. I fell bad to those being trapped with this.

and most of the scenes in the movies are based on true stories that occur in the field. addicts are caught in a loop of deception that makes them think they will always win, they forget that they have run out of money or have excess time playing gambling but keep playing because of that greed. debt in gambling is a stupid act because it will definitely be difficult to pay, sad for those trapped in the debt.

one of the biggest problems in these cases is that even when the person is always complaining and then the person overcomes this problem and starts to take care of their life away from gambling, someone will always appear who will be condemning you for having lost a lot of money, even when many years pass there will always be someone who complains and condemns the person who lost a lot of money in games of chance, this is because to buy anything you need to have money and the trend is that the less money the person does not have people always remember the day you had a lot of money and lost. Is a cycle that never ends well

Unfortunately, addiction does just that. There are no limits for an addicted person. As in this case, people go into debt as long as they can, because they still believe that there will be a big win that will allow them to pay off all their debt. Unfortunately, this is not happening in most cases. The only way out is, as this guy did, admit that you are addicted and seek help from specialists.

I guess he does not realize using that big money and still uses that money to gamble because if he is aware, he will not spend too much money playing gambling. Using too much money as that, of course, gives him a big risk of losing the money, especially in gambling because we do not know when we can win or lose. It is a good lesson for us not to use too big money while we can build a new business that can give us profit in the future.

Don't think so, I am pretty sure that someone who gambles are sober enough to know that the money that they spend on gambling is pretty big and they know that what they're doing is right. If you have the money to lose that much amount, I think it's pretty alright for them to spend it plus it's not like those people who spend money on gambling is always poor.

In the first place, A poor will never gamble with that huge amount of money because it's very hard for them to earn that much money. It's either you are right about the person lose still has a lot of money on his purse or the person is just bet his life savings for a fortune just like what Mansour Bahrami did when he lost all his money at one night on gambling.

He can build a small gambling business with that amount and instead of him gambling he will let others to gamble in his casino while he only sit there and collect cash . depends of the person if this guy is first time to gamble this high then he is no doubt a Verry greedy person but if he is used to this then I don't think the term will fit in him . Also not all are going to commit suicide so don't worry too much .

you wont realize it if you start small and gradually increase or deposit more because what your only thinking is how can you recover your previous losses but if you start with a huge amount its impossible to not notice it but some people are not business minded .
they dont like to commit a hard work or dont like to wait for the result but they only gamble because they think it was more easier and faster .

After becoming addicted to online casino games in March last year, he lost £40,000 in the space of a month, losing half of that in just one night.

After losing that money too, he found himself in massive debt, and contemplated taking his own life.

I don't know why they are caught up in this moment but I think people know the risks yet they still try. Was it appropriate for him to call the gambling firm wrong or he was right? (See the last part of the article or better read the 3 mins. article instead)

I don't think you can still be a responsible gambler even though you lose too much money on gambling.

The way I see it, you can be a responsible gambler only if you don't lose more than you can afford to. Losing too much money means you are pretty addicted to gambling. There is no way I can view this as being responsible. It sounds more like an excuse.

This is what is happening to most of the gamblers that is why we all them as irresponsible gamblers.

They are spending money way more than what they can afford to lose on gambling thus, they are becoming irresponsible and sometimes they are getting addicted into it because they are times that they want to recover the money that they lose. I agree with what you said that the more you lose, the more you addicted into it. If you know what your limits then you will not put yourself into a point where you will lose all of your money.

Well, it is what it is. People wants money that is why they are willing to spend more just to have more money :X.

Sometimes when we do something very good and challenging (especially for those who are addicted), we will not feel suddenly we have spent too long or even money too much. And we just realized when we had lost a lot. It would be one of the dangers of Gambling Addictions, where we did not have control of ourselves and our money. This often happens, even in the world of offline gambling, this often happens, even they still play gambling by owing the opponent or broker at that time. And when they have nothing but still can't control themselves for gambling, they will eventually do various criminals.

So for those who are aware of this and the danger and want to admit it and want to fix it, we should have to help him, especially in psychology so he wants to open himself and control himself.

And so sorry to hear this bad news from the man.

There have been a lot of studies about it and it is known that when you're having fun time seems to fly and you do not realize that you have been having fun for so long, this is why it is important to keep track of all our activities so this does not happen to us, after all I enjoy gambling from time to time and there is nothing wrong with that but it is important to set limits not only in the amount of money that you spend each week or month in this hobby, but you also need to keep track of the time that you are investing in it so this does not happen to you.

Unfortunately this is never going to work, a person that is willing to gamble away so much money will just create a new account in another casino and then keep gambling and if he is blocked on that casino as well then he will repeat this process until he losses everything that he has, people blame the casinos but people like that would have get addicted to almost anything and would have lost their money anyway, this person needs to work on his self-control otherwise this is going to happen to him again.

With this kind of severe addiction then most likely they would only stop when they had lost everything from their money until to their property or ending up on having nothing to spend on
his gambling addiction.Whats next? then this is where self realization about their mistakes that they had done and this had always been the case because people never intend nor be aware
or just simply ignoring while they are on the middle of such addiction which they can potentially save up their asses if they do able to stop out and get rid of gambling
but what happens in most case on where they do proceed on and gamble like theres no tomorrow.

You would think that losing so much money will lead someone to the realization that they are doing something wrong and that they need to change it, and despite all of this this is not the case, the article mentions that the person that lost this much money is unhappy with the casinos because they should have stopped him from gambling all his money away, which is a ridiculous notion because every single person is responsible for their money and if he didn't want to lose so much of it then he should not have risk that amount of money against the casino in the first place.

It wasn't appropriate for the man (Craig) who lost the money gambling in one night because the gambling firm are doing their best to prevent addiction and the last time I checked their promotion is not much to the extent of it not been fair.

But that is only 20k euro for a night mate and there are even many gamblers that spend this amount in single bet. so i think there are no much issue in this matter? it is just the involved is feeling badly on that amount lost.

I understand that the money he lost in a single is bigger than his budget while it is the amount some people spent on a single bet and I also understand that he's feeling bad for going to the extent of requiring a loan from people so that he could make another bet but what I don't support is the lame excuses he's making about casinos because he has lost all his money right from the beginning he sees gambling as a way for him to make money during the total lockdown.

Most people see gambling as an easy way to make money and this thought makes them lose what they already have. You click one button, you either double your money or lose it all. The easiest way to make or lose money. It doesn't take any skills, it doesn't any work, it only takes a second. That's why it is appealing to many people.

This is absolutely true there are many or some gamblers that rely their lives by making money on gambling which is very risky. There is no such guarantee that you can be able to earn money from gambling every single day, you will be a winner sometime and a loser at the same time. As a gambler I am practicing to myself to have a very strict limitation in my time and money spend in my gambling activities also I am doing it for fun and not that seriously with heavy reason why I am doing gambling.

I think setting limit to the time and money one spends on Gambling is the best way to avoid spending much on it. Some people take gambling as a means of earning a living, and they end up getting addicted. And some gambling addicts go into borrowing money to gamble with the intention of recovering their losses. When one eventually get addicted to gambling, breaking from it is not always easy, it requires time and determination.
