Topic: Simple mistake that makes you lose everything - page 8. (Read 980 times)

I can relate to this because I play a lot of Blackjack on this game provider. I have problem before which I can’t place bet that is not whole number. My bet keeps rejecting whenever I bet 10.x or anything with decimal which I don’t what’s the problem when do in blackjack alone. I missed a stupid side bet just because my decimal bet rejected.

evolution gaming support is very active but they doesn’t provide exact answer even on their follow response because they never give you follow up answer to your query.

My memorable tilted moment is when I double down 2 Ace instead of split and hit 10 that makes my card 12.   

Small mistakes that have bad consequences you should pay attention to, getting lessons from these small mistakes will make you more careful.
As you experience when victory is in sight, you make unwanted mistakes and lose everything.

Not only trading that requires focus, as well as good analysis.
Gambling also requires it, especially if the bets made amount to thousands of dollars.

A mistake like this should already make you understand what to do so as not to repeat it again.
Because I also made mistakes because of psychological pressure to place bets that were greater than the profits that had been obtained before,
but in the end, all of that was lost because of my greed.

This is exactly my thought as well. Sometimes, most of this glitches we experience are not actually from the gambling sites but due to poor connectivity from our end. Poor internet connection can actually make you lose more than expected if care is not taken and can as well be in your favor sometimes. I have experience both situations where poor connection makes me to lose and gain profits too. I remember back then when I was playing Aviator and intended to cash out at 2 odds which is my usual target but I lost that round due to poor network as my bet refuses to cash out until the plane crashed. On the profit aspect, I placed a bet but it shows failed while I still place it again without knowing that the first one was placed successfully but my connection was so bad and it didn't reflect. Luckily, I won the game. However, I don't like having this mistakes when gambling no matter what the outcome might be, let me be fully responsible irrespective of lose or win.

If you are a gambler who does play a lot, I don't think we will need to create a BS story, there's always an event where these things will happen to us.

Sports bettors have lots of simple mistakes.
Just one added team in a parlay to increase the multiplier can be a mistake, especially if we don't really know that team and we just use it because of our greed.

In casino games, it's different. It's the emotional things that we can regret in the future. I mean, after we do it all that's when we realize our mistakes.
For me, it happened a lot in Plinko, I have this kind of emotion that I get angry when I see my graph dipping too far and I want to get it all back so bad in fast way so I press the bet button rapidly and a lot of Plinko balls will fall until all my balance is depleted. I don't do that anymore, it's not just a simple mistake if we keep on doing it, it becomes a stupid one. It doesn't work, we will just end up rushing our balance to zero. It's better to switch games and chase the losses slowly.

Gamble is a game of chance and every chance is also known as luck, what happened to you is never mistake because it wasn't time to win the 10 odds. I always say that ever odds are always against the bettor, even when you select 0.0 odds it will still cut if it wants to. There was a day my big brother played correct score on sports game and I didn't played the game even when he gave me the code, but finally my big brother won the bet, and the money was 700 thousand in naira because he stake the game with 80 thousand Nigerian currency. My mistake is I didn't play the game my big bro gave to me but I end up playing another game and the ones I played were lost.

It's inevitable that at some point of our gambling journey we end commiting dumb mistakes due to not being totally focused on the game or maybe due to being too anxious for a winning. Sometimes I already placed a more expensive bet than I intended to on dice game, misclicked finishing a crash game before the time I really would like to stop, and also misclicked on blackjack stopping when I shouldn't, and asking for 1 extra card when I was already pretty close to 21 points, just like you.

In my case, I believe it was nervousness which lead me to error. Thankfully these were harmless mistakes which didn't bring negative outcomes to my bankroll. I just ignored them and kept playing as usual... I feel sorry for those who placed max bet and end losing everything for foolishness. And that is why I think it's so important that casinos place a warning message on every big sized bets gamblers place before allowing it to proceed. The chances the gambler placed the bet by mistake is too high to be disconsidered by the platform, unless the gambler turns the warning message off on his account's settings.

Accidentally click the max amount and gambled it away, it happens to me few times.

I ever place live bet 5 minutes before the match ends and hope the team will make a comeback, but they didn't score any goal and I lost my money in short time.

I think there are only two mistakes that I did that make me lose everything in short time.

I can only speak of something that happened recently and it was Me testing out a betting site after the chitty chat with some of my friends, although I was trying to help him register and login to place bet, he soon forgot to pay attention and went about frolicking with some random chick.
After registration I could convince him to fund the account of which he mindlessly did and I placed the bet. It was the one of these last champions league fixtures and all matches for the day I placed his bet on.
Curiosity got the better of me as I tried out some slot, casino and dice rolling bets. I made sure to try each with just few cents and made just some meager profit that was more than the losses I had. He didn't notice till now and he won the bet for that day.

Where I lost was the following day when Real Madrid were to play the second round of the UCL. I had the opportunity to be with him that day and was the one who made the bet along with other matches that night. I ventured into the casino area and started my easy bet strategy. I lost more than the previous day and kept betting till I almost exhausted the cash left in my friends account.
This time he sure noticed after losing already because Real Madrid drew while we went for a win as well as some other teams. He wasn't angry though, but am going to fund the account during the weekend so we can bet on matches to be played.
This is as close as it gets.

Is any mistake really minor, slight or a simple mistake?
I don't think there's anything as a minor mistake when it comes to gambling, because the slightest error in gambling is enough to lead to failure and loss. In gambling, all mistakes are the same, and they matter, a gambler needs to be 100 percent correct for their outcome to yield profits.

Yes, i have experienced this one too on which wasnt been able to cash out because my internet was cut off or disconnected. When i do see the multiplier do increased out and waiting for me to take profits
and suddenly the internet cuts off on which this is really that some shitty ISP's fault on why i have busted out that bet. Its frustrating and something disappointing on which you might be able to
punch up your monitor with extreme disappointment. This is why it would be always best that you should really anticipate with those kind of cut off of connection.

It do really sucks with this kind of experience on which you are making profits but due to this cut off on the time that you are making profits.
These kind of situation will really be hindering you on next time encounter. This is why i did make out some complaints with my ISP
due to severe sudden disconnections.

Losing and winning are kind of relative especially when it comes to gambling activities. When we gamble we never know a hundred percent that we would win until we actually do . Same thing also happens when we lose. However for most games and gambling activities, our experience tend to increase when we lose certain times. This is because when we lose we often sought for our mistakes and possibly ways to fix them in other to avoid repeating them in future bets.
The truth is sometimes that stuff you call a little mistake after you have lost the bet, was most times one of your best strategies before and while you were placing the bet. People always view their gambling loss as the cause of a mistake and they never recognize it is a mistake until they have actually lost the bet.

It is a mistake that everyone who gambles must make at least once. It becomes a cause for concern when it is frequent. It is at this point that the gambler must stop because trying any further would result in we already know it, bursting of your bank roll.And you don just end up with a loss but with regrets knowing that you should have quit long ago before convincing yourself to play another game.

My experience is because of the lag in my internet connection I was playing a crash game and already hit 30x of my bet but when I am about to cash out I was late by a split second because of the lag in my connection I thought it was a glitch but my sister was also having a problem with her connection the video that she was watching is not loading.
After a few hours, I received an update from my network provider that they were having a connectivity problem
after that incident, I always do a speed test to check if the connection is ok to avoid that scenario.
That could have been my biggest earnings but unexpected things like this happens, its beyond our control.

I think the kind of simple mistake I did is when repeating the same mistake over and over again. Normally in terms of the basics of the game, I don't have any issue with that since I'm very careful with how I manage everything, but it's on how I would manage my emotion when I'm down big. ^{(worst feeling as a gambler)}.

I'm sure everyone here had experience getting out of control sometimes when you try to chase your losses and end up losing everything, that's my simple mistake I did that required me a lot time and losing experience before I finally fixed it.

There’s a lot of glitches if you will play on live blackjack like evolution gaming. Sometimes you can’t press any button during decision making. There’s also an instance  that they will refund your bet for unknown reason once the bet is close. I experienced this too on crazy time which I was supposed to win x500 if my bet went through.


Reported it in the casino but as usual this kind of error can be handle properly until I just move on and accept my loss. There’s nothing to do about it especially if you don’t have hard evidence such as screen record because provider will just simply denied it.


I believe this is just a coincidence since it didn’t happened again.

Mistake in gambling is a normal thing, this mistake should be taken into record to avoid it from happening next time, sometimes our problems as gamblers is not having a decision when making a selection gambling, sometimes greed is also a problem, I placed a stake on a match so this match was going as expected the gave me a reasonable cash out but I refused to take the money because I felt that I have won but to my greatest surprise everything change and I lost that slip, till this minutes I still regret that action I took, so am of the opinion that every gambler should desist from greed and gamble with caution.

It should be known that if there are no mistakes in gambling we wouldn't be experiencing losses with our bets, when a prediction is not correct or done in the right direction to the outcome of the event it still could be referred to as a mistake.

Look at it this way, when there are no mistakes in our predictions we eventually get a winning of our stake due to the absence of a mistake in the prediction. Just like you, I have also had multiple experiences where I  don't feel satisfied with the total odds and decides to add more odds to increase it, at the end of the games the extra added odds turned out to be the bad eggs that killed my whole bet. In all I have learnt that avoiding the feeling of a lack of satisfaction with size of odds could increase the number of times we get winnings therefore reducing "losing mistakes".

All gamblers must make different mistake when gambling or when placing their bet, it is a norm. The biggest mistake that I have made ever was chasing my loss. I was give some money to give to my mom, and as I was going home, I saw a bet shop, and I decided to place a bet with the little amount of money on me on virtual.

My first and second game was a win, and I was relaxed to continue playing. I lost the next three games, and I decided to gamble with my mom's money to see if I will win back my money, and gradually, I was losing, and before I knew it, all of it was gone, and I couldn't go to my mom that day to give her the money, because she did not know that I was given some money to give to her. The next day, when my mom got the message about the money, and asked me, I was so ashamed of myself that I had to tell a different story.

Yes, I think one time or another, gamblers make that simply mistakes that cost us money and obviously we have to put a blame on ourselves because of this. Mind was when I was betting on horse racing years ago. I already put down my bet and I like the horse specially that the jockey was great although the horse just have a so-so performance. But I felt that as a long shot he had a good chance to upset and give me a win.

Unfortunately in the last minute before the race, I change my mind or just torn the paper that supposedly I will go and bet on that race. And then the horse win and I was so mad at myself for not betting on my instinct and so I learn a expensive lesson then. Do not change your bet, the best thing to do is to add what you want to add.

I think everyone has done this, because gambling is tempting with its winnings, so many people or gamblers take careless actions that are not considered first. And it is true that making mistakes in decision-making can certainly have fatal consequences, such as ignoring the obvious factor of defeat, where you have won but don't cash it in, but return to betting with a larger bet amount, causing the winnings you have won to disappear again. However, I have never experienced this with the game of blackjack, I have experienced it in other games.

If we have won or lost then we should be able to stop gambling, if we feel that we have had enough then stop and rest so that emotions don't escalate which can result in careless actions, or small mistakes that can make everything fall apart, such as losing everything, including property. that we have. Most people who experience a lot of losses may be because they are not aware that the gambling they are doing is excessive.
