Topic: Problem: Lost today $2000 on PrimeDice - page 5. (Read 28053 times)

Well, because it is based on luck and not intelligent skills this is why so many people are into it. If gambling was about to study a lot and learn things and develop skills then none would ever play. This is why people are lazy to do so. I agree that he shouldn't bet so much that he couldn't afford. Committing suicide or dying would not make things better. OP should try to find support and fight against his addiction otherwise there is a high possibility to do it again.

Been there done that sir,you cant really stop unless you make a serious goal
Even when you make a serious goal you need to withdraw it to fiat so you dont gamble it
And have a little to play with

The problem is always the last bet it always losses

But you will recover soon like all of us do

This is the result when you continue to chase what you have loss and if you don’t know how to control yourself. Gambling works on this way, you will win in first but in the long run your money will slowly gone until you lose everything. We should know when to stop in gambling, it doesn’t mean that you win some, you will win everything.

You may advice anything easily but when you are gambling and feeling the heat of uncertainty, definitely you cannot take the decision of stopping after some profits. I'm not shocked on seeing what OP has done as this will be the result when a gambler is going without any control on their emotions.

I am just worrying how many people are going to fall like this due to gambling and its dangers. There should be some initiative for this so that gamblers will not losing like this.

I would highly suggest seeking professional help for your gambling addiction.
You have a real problem when you spend that amount of money and can't control yourself.

Casual gamblers don't spend more than they're willing to lose, so you don't fit into that category any more.

Here's some information about gambling addiction, I really suggest taking a look:

You want to die? With just money you want to kill yourself? That's not the answer to any problem we have encountered. Yes it's devastating to loss that amount but at least you have learned your lesson with regards to gambling, that you will never always win and you have to do another strategy to win.

the most common things that make a person addicted to gambling are:

1- don't be satisfied with the small gain and try to earn more in short times.
2- don't accept losing part of your money and try to
recover your lost even playing larger amount than your initial losses.

the best thing OP should have done was to withdraw his original deposite after making a gain of almost 120% and play with profit without risk of losing. but luck took another course and did that OP lose all his money.

Yes,when someone thinks that they can win continuously in gambling then they will get this kind of feeling about suicide when they are in loss.

I am never afraid to lose my money since I know how to earn money again,losing money is not a big thing when you know how to do it.

Yes, I am sure he can make a lot of money from the altcoin. He can get various coins with the low price, and he also has a chance to sell when it is rising. But it's already happening, and he cannot turn back to get his money. Let's face it and remind in your mind that playing gambling is too dangerous.

There is no need of you go into gambling or betting if you know you will be afraid of losing.  Betting is a very risky venture and there is no need of you starting it if you not ready for any outcome because it is base on luck and not your intelligence or skills.  Remember that investors will lose and make money and since your has gone worst there is no need of you die or commit suicide.

It's just an ordinary day for every gambler, you attitude is what makes you loss all your money.
You go all in thinking the odds is gonna give you a win, but you forget it's just a chances, even if you are taking the 99% win rate, you'll never win all the time.

Time to relax now, don't die yet, because it would not change anything, gambling sites will still continue to exist, what you need to do is learn from your experience, so the next time you gamble, you are gonna enjoy what you are doing, regardless of the outcome.

It is your best luck ever because you can turn your money to $500 so it increases to $840.


But you are too greedy, and you hope you can make another big winning. You forget in that time, your luck only comes once, and after you get a big win, you must stop the game, don't ever think about the next chance to get the big win.

You now know gambling games makes you lost everything, and it is an important lesson for you. From this lesson, I hope you can know your limit and don't make the same mistake.

It might also would have been better to put all his $2000 on an altcoin hehehe. Most of them are on a very low discount and might easily give him a 10x return if he is patient enough hehehe.

This scenarios are pretty common when people tends to chase up their losses and do regret on the end when they lost everything.
This is gambling dude and anytime your entire balance would be wiped in an instant.This is why its important to get out when you do saw
that you are already profiting but basing on what you have done, you just continue and got greedy and desperate.

Youre right mate,$50 isnt a small bet for a single roll so this means OP is a galant gambler..

But what i dont like here is the blaming part in which I believe caused by His stupidity and being greedy ..

He was winning at first and got multiple wins and yet he continued to play.but when he losses everything now attempting to die?get lost mate you are not belong here because a gambler must have a guts and balls to accept what would happen to his actions

Right , never bet which you are not ready to loose . I always bet with my spare money .
We are bound to bust now or sometime later but how much we loose is directly dependent on us.

First of all, you can't say that $50 - $60 bets are small, moreover, your first deposit is only $300 so its like 20% of your total money, I never bet more than 10% of my current money, but I guess everyone have their own "gambling rule", however, $50 is not a small amount in betting. And then, you forget the first rule of betting, never get greedy, in everything that relies on speculation greed is the worst enemy, and the first loss after your greed lead you to be tilted and become emotional, I don't think it can be worse, but I hope you learn your mistake.

Oh I am really sorry for you I hope that you will recover that money somehow.This is my main reason why dont risk more then 10% from my month profit on gambling.Do not gamble with money which you cant afford to lose and then even if you lose you will not be sad too much.

That might be the best point to take forward, keep the bets relative to income, some people wipe their brow with fiftys  .    At some point everyone reaches a point where the amount gambled is larger then your daily wage, weekly take home, monthly pay packet.   Some people are so lucky or have so much guile as to get to a point they are into betting more then their car or their house.    All I'd suggest is never go a day where you bet more then you earnt in a week or a week where you've bet or risked more then a months worth and so on.    To stay balanced, if you stop take your earnings and get some profit back you are genuinely richer at that point and come back having evened everything out, paid some bills and so on.

Till a player moves some winnings into a more boring area like paying off a big bill, the days bet pays off the monthly rent for example (which is boring but also every day for that month you are richer) then the win is also a potential loss.   Most of us not just OP dont have the perfect discipline to not keep betting to regain a loss, but if you walk away no matter what after hitting a high level you will leave at the top not the bottom.   It sucks to lose and have to walk home, leave when you pockets full and you can ride home drinking champagne in the back still which is the real high.

  Money only good when time taken to enjoy its benefits not just the rush of the win I guess  

Curious here is that in reality you yourself knew you would lost, you just imagined yourself unbeatable which you weren't. How did this idea came to you? When you were in profit and said, let's do last bet, why didn't stop here? I amn't here to blame you for your action and add more stress but I won't say any consolatory words. Always do things for fun, not for worsening your nervous.
