Well, I once won $5000+ on a Slot and I was in the clouds with the win.... I withdraw some of that money and I deposited it onto another online gambling site that hosted one of my favorite games (Crash) ..... I then played for a while and I accidental clicked on maximum bet and did not notice it... until my whole balance was gone.

I went into full degen mode from anger and I withdraw more money from the site where I won the $5000 and deposited it again.... played for 5 hours and lost it all in one day.  Angry Angry Angry Angry

That is very exhausting and stressful to your part. I have my own part of experiences of accidentally clicking the maximum bets. Some of them I won but many of them I lost. But the amount of those games were not the same to yours. $5,000 is a big money to gamble it all in just one single day. You were carried away by your emotions reason why you came back attempting to regain your losses but you lost more. It's not true that the house always win but they have very high probability of winning.

Actually I had an extra semester, this was my punishment for using my tuition fee in gambling. I paid my tuition fee myself during my extra semester as I can't tell my parent what happened, if not it will be a big problem in my family because they don't even know that I gamble. It was really a hard lesson for me.
Why didn't you remember your ability before doing this? What you have done it is look like being addicted to gambling. Don't get become addicted to gambling take this as a entertainment purposes. Investing on gambling is highly risky and before investing on it. We should mustn't forget how much our ability is, because the first rule of gambling is to invest as much as you can afford to lose, I think you will keep this in mind from now when you will go for gambling in nexttime.

Losing is very common thing to happen in gambling, I will not take it worst day in gambling.
I would prefer to say that the worst day in gambling is whenever I break my own rules in gambling.
It is when I did not stop while I should stop in both winning or losing situation.
The decision I made to continue gambling while I should have stopped is the worst thing for me.

~ Or maybe you are more successful now? Because I often heard stories about those people who quit school but became millionaires and billionaires later on.

You better forget those stories because more often than not they are about people from rich families. "You don't want to study, oh my precious, don't worry we'll make you a famous pop singer or a successful restaurateur." And it works, but only if your family has millions USD to back you up.

There's no excuse for risking the money you need for your education.

I believe everybody has their worst day in gambling especially if you started gambling early maybe in your teenage age. My worst day was when I used my school fees to gamble because I thought I will make more money to take care of some of my needs in school. At the beginning I was making profit for 2hrs,I was carried away with the anxiety of winning but later the game turned round and I was losing and losing,I didn't quit hoping I will recover my lost. Before I knew it I was left with 10% of the money I started with, I couldn't just quit the game then because I still feel I will start winning again but luck failed me and I got drained of all I have on me.

    Two weeks later it was announced in school that we only had one more week left for closure of school fees payment, I tried borrowing, seek for help everywhere but nobody could help me with the money.  This was how I couldn't pay my fee for that semester and went home with carry overs after the end of the semester as I was not allowed to write some exams.

  How about you do you had a worst day on gambling  that you will never forget ?Did it affect an aspect of your life and how ?
   

That's really a sad incident and I can understand the tension and anxiety that you faced while playing and then losing in gambling. Well, everyone thinks that gambling is a quick money making game, but we realize it later that it is not so easy to make money from gambling.
You can lose money more often in gambling then winning.

By the way, since you do not earn in those school days, what did you tell to your parents, where the school fee money is gone  Roll Eyes

When you say worst day I think it means a normal loss but in your case it can be called as a worst moment because the money that you have lost is your school fees, so the moment is kinda unforgettable.

That is the magic of gambling. It will make you think that you can double or triple your money but the truth is that your chances of winning is only small. I think you are addicted on gambling already and you use your allowance first before you end up touching the money that supposed to be for your tuition fees. Im curious if what happen to you later on op? Did your parents find it out? Did you go back to your previous school level again? Or maybe you are more successful now? Because I often heard stories about those people who quit school but became millionaires and billionaires later on.

I have many to share and its always been on two things, chasing my loss and gambling money that I can't afford like your story, and is always the worst day and can be considered a nightmare, its very irresponsible for gamblers to chase loss although we cannot avoid it and gambling money that we can afford to lose which is something we always do.

That is called the addiction.We become addicted to gambling without us realizing it,we think everything is O.K with us and we are not at all addicted,we can control ourselves and we can stop gambling any time we want.The fact that despite we are saying these things we go and keep chasing our lost money and by doing so we risk other money we cannot afford to lose it simply means we have become addicted.I was addicted until not long ago but an event where I played slots without getting any emotion in the long run made me quit completely.Sometimes everyone needs such event in order to start thinking and stop gambling.

The worst thing when gambling is of course too selfish to expect victory and choose shortcuts to multiply money, because basically gambling is risking money to play.  In addition to having the courage to accept the consequences, we must also be able to play calmly and not act rashly.  besides that we must be able to avoid using money that should be used for other needs.  obviously Op did the wrong thing because he was tempted to double his money on gambling, this of course has often been done by some people when there are needs and have a short mind.  but most people will definitely experience the same thing when in conditions like Op, because the main goal when gambling is not to have fun but to expect to get a big win from it so that it ends up tragically losing everything
Speaking of selfishness, I think it has happened to some gamblers who continue to gamble and hope to multiply their money through some gambling games. After getting a few wins or losses, one can become selfish because they are tempted to get more wins or recover from losses regardless of how big their chances of getting them are. This is what is experienced by many gamblers out there. This ultimately leads them to bankruptcy and will be realized when their money runs out on the gambling table. And before we experience or have experienced it, we better know ourselves and not force our will to continue gambling and stop immediately before things get messy.

In the process of gambling is very difficult to stop so people so often lose all the money. The only thing that can help to avoid such situations is to limit the money allocated to gambling. For example, you can allocate to gambling $100-200 per month and not exceed this limit (actually this amount depends on how much money you do not feel sorry, because with a high probability you will lose them). If you cannot limit yourself and spend much more than you have planned, then most likely you already have a gambling addiction and you need to fight it.

In betting, we must use cold money (money that is not important in the near future, or even now), so if we lose in a bet, we can give it up more easily.

I never had any worse or extreme experience of gambling, it is just normal loss and normal wins. I have never won big and I have never lost big, this is because I gamble moderately. The reason why I gamble moderately and responsibly is because the environment and family I grew up, it is a sin to gamble. Even as I am now old enough to gamble and have relocated from my parents, I still have that feeling of not doing the right thing when I gamble and that is why I only do it for fun.

I guess that's why it's called gamble, because we really don't know what will be the outcome and as human, we have the tendency to test it for ourselves, take the risks and see how it goes. If it goes in our favor, then good, but wait, we will not stop because we are being played but our emotions and we decided to try and continue. And then it goes on and on, until we get addicted experience the worst and later we will have to decided if we wanted to continue or not. For some of us, we already learned out lesson very well and we won't venture on that kind of thing because we don't want to mess our life again.

Make the bad experience a valuable lesson, remember gambling is not something you can easily win every time, even when we master the game we can lose.
Mastering emotions is not easy but it must be applied by gamblers to avoid big problems.

Losing all of my job paychecks in a few hours in a high stakes cash game and being in a slightly drunken state that left me out of control and unfocused.
and then I work hard to make up for the loss by working in one of the car washes after I get home from work which only gets a car or two just enough to eat and a few cigarettes, this is a very bad thing for me. Because I spent all my newly received salary on gambling for only a few hours and was a little drunk and I felt very tired after coming home from work having to work again to cover my losses and for my needs for one month.
I have read the same experience with the others that they've spent the salary they've just received and lost it all in gambling.
This isn't just all in the web stories but in the real life, I've known a lot in the circle of my friends and friends of friends that are like this. It seems that they can't help themselves anymore and they can't stop it due to the addiction they are experiencing.
Eventually, when they've been stuck with the reality that there are no other people that will help them to get up, they've tried to mitigate it and gradually overcome it.
This experience is known to almost everyone of this platform. Many gamblers have given most of their earnings from the job to gambling every month ‍and lost with in short period of time. Basically such things happen when a gambler is not aware of some basic concepts of gambling. They should learn about it and it has to be used in a discipline manner.

Terrible terrible experience indeed. That means you need to work 2 jobs in a day just to keep up yourself for the current month as you have lost everything including that budget to feed you for the whole month?
Well, in that case, that must have been taught you a very valuable lesson?
Fortunately, I have never experienced that. What I had before, when I was still single, which was like 15 years ago. I've lost more than half of my salary in an expensive bar where there were a lot of good billiard players. I did not drink too much as I've spent it on betting matches (due to frustrations) where I eventually lost after a series of matches.

Perhaps this is due to the fact that people tend to evaluate themselves as "special" and wait for a miracle. After they lose the deposit, they return to reality and no longer give in to dreams (this is in a good case, in a bad case they believe that next time everything will be different and they will be lucky).

It is common sense for one to know when the odds of a win in a day are in ones favor or against them.
commonsense is not that in effect once you are talking about gambling addict , though OP's age cannot be considered addicted when that time happens yet? this is something that concerns His parents.
Quote
Losing is the pain that every gambler must experience before even tasting the delicious rewards of a win.
but mostly ? there are what we called as Beginners luck in which newbie gamblers tastes that delicious rewards first before taking the complete losing streak in which we mostly experience most.
Quote
Those who feel so called 'special' and always hope on miracle after gambling recklessly often end up sadder than then they began the game.
I don't take or play gambling like a do or die affair. In this way I am not tormented by the regret of losing on a game I should have won, if I played this, instead of that.
if you are going to enter gambling then we must be expecting losses as well.
