I'd tell that person to help himself and his family by getting out and at first trying to lowering stakes. Playing with a few dollars is the best way to satisfy your addiction and not lose a lot of money.

I don't feel bad for gamblers who lost a lot of money. It was their choice and if they won they'd be bragging about it everywhere and buying stupid useless shit. We shouldn't help these people financially they have to learn from it and suffer the consequences.

If they are to consider lowering their bets in the game, then it will surely not satisfy their hunger to play more. Basically why people play and gets addicted is when they bet a huge amount and they win. If they are to bet small amount then its sadly but true, its boring. So, to help someone who lost, then an advice would do for him to limit playing, or else, work hard to have too much to spend in gambling without worrying of losing everything.

If someone bet and he suffers a big loss and then goes here to ask a little help from you, are you willing to give him help?
Have you ever experienced something like that, how do you deal with this loss?

It depends upon what can of help he need ? Sociological help or a financial help. I may not help him  financially unless I see he has some good job or business and he can pay me back. I am saying this because I actually help my friend in such a situation and to my surprise he again bet on the loan which he got from me and lost that amount also.  Angry
Such experienced will really give you the right to forget about helping him again, though an addicted gambler doesn't have any reputations to think about. As they are all think about how they will manage to playback and try their luck to recover  previous loses that they've made. Difficult to see them suffered but you also need to tech them that quitting is the best options with this kind of activities.

It happens and no one will intend to help, because the mistake done is after understanding the true risk of gambling. Myself too is a victim, and I haven't asked for help with unknown persons. I've requested help from friends without revealing my failure on gambling. Also I've requested the support team of the casinos. Friends have helped me, and I'm repaying little by little.

Not a good idea to ask from friends without revealing that you will be gambling or for gambling recovery because in past I have also been in such situations and it turned worse as I gambled with their money to recover the losses. Best is to avoid getting into more debts.

Well, exactly, that's a reason it's bad to borrow more if you are going to gamble with the money anyway, but sometimes urgent need arises which are out of our control. That times help can be done.

You should have written the kind of help that a person would be asking. If it's about lending him funds to make him return his losses, I guess it will be too hard for me to help him. There's no guarantee that he will still be successful in trading. He should know about its risks and that gaining a good profit from gambling is still unsure. He might only be doing the same thing if I would help him. There's always a consequence for our actions so we should think twice before betting.

If you mean giving a money as a help to this gambler. Who the hell will do such kind of thing? No one. Begging isn't allowed inside the forum even in site chatroom, you are not allowed to that. As if a gambler will show pity and give some of his coin to this gambler, definitely not. Maybe they will just show sympathy and that's it. But if you're an HR and often rain on chatroom, there's a chance that some might tip you back.

For the first time in gambling, we are still exploring how does the gambling works, in starting you must to have a starting money for just almost ten dollars is enough to know how does gambling works. Many beginners already failed on their first try as a person who is knowledgeable in gambling; it is better to help those people who want to learn and enjoy the game of gambling. Don't hesitate to help; many people learn in by their experience knowledge is not enough for being a good gambler.

You don't need 10 dollars to start playing in gambling. Based from my experience, you could play on gambling sites that provides free cryptocurrency or faucets to consider, for you to still play games without depositing. With that, if you doubled your money, you could win much more based on your luck. My advise is for you to practice betting with that faucets so if you are to deposite more money, then you already know how to play and to discover efficient ways of playing.

In sports gambling site that I am playing with, their minimum is around 1 mbtc and I think that is an affordable amount.

The good thing with crypto gambling is you don't need to risk or spend a big amount to gambling, your suggestion by the way is good but you don't get a good amount playing faucet these days, so its better to start with your own money.

maybe try to join the competition, find some job online like bounty campaign and what you earn as reward, you can use that to gamble.

I've seen plenty of friends look huge stacks, only to then turn to me to ask if I will bankroll them for a few hands. Depending on how well I know them, and wealthy I know they are, I'll then choose whether or not to do so.

I definitely won't be bankrolling anybody I know to be a problem gambler, but sometimes you do get high net worth individuals that just get a bad beat and end up getting felted.

In these cases, you can be sure they've got the finances to pay you back, so it's not usually an issue.
Personally I prefer to never mix my friends with my money because it always ends badly, even if a person is wealthy and has the money to pay you in the case you lend him some money that doesn't mean that he's going to pay you, if anything those that have a lot of money have a tendency to not want to pay even for stuff that they know that they received because that is the way that they had to become wealthy, so no matter what happens I will never lend someone money if his intention is to gamble it.

Since the OP has disappeared after creating this topic (although he was present on the site two weeks later), I tend to think that he was expecting some kind of gamblers' solidarity, in the sense that if a fellow gambler lost big amount one day, other gamblers would chip in in order to help in recovering losses for the unfortunate gambler. If that would have turned out to be the case all that's left would be making up a sob story about losing big amount and posting his BTC address. When it turned out that no one was willing to give out their money, he decided to abandon this place without replying.

I know I may be wrong, but that's my impression after following this thread for some time.

the problem here is that OP does not even care about this "Experiment" topic he started and not even give a single reply for all the question.

he expect answers for not complete questions.

so none can give specific replies as this topic was not active at all.
Probably he is reading all of the replies here (or some of it since none of us have the initiative to read all the replies here one by one Cheesy) and aside from him, it can help other people too who are reading here in any way. What is important right now is somebody is keeping this "Experiment" active and somebody will read.
People are sharing their views and they talk about what they had from gambling. This topic is related to different people who have been gambling and who learned how to gamble with different experiences and mistakes so here we ask them to share those moments so that people who are new will surely read it and will gain some knowledge.

I think the same as you. It is better to give the money to people who needed than to give for people who will use that money to play gambling. I think that a person cannot control himself in gambling, so when he loses the money, he wants to play more and more. And if he doesn't have more money, he will borrow from the other people. But maybe we can ask him what the money that he wants to borrow. But that will depend on us, and we don't have to lend the money if we don't have more money.
This is really simple if the help that a gambler is asking from you is in the form of money you should always refuse regardless of what kind of excuse they use to try to convince you, you must remember that it is very difficult to detect if a person is addicted to gambling and if that person lost everything that he had with him when he entered the casino you cannot be sure that he's not addicted to gambling and that he is not going to spend whatever you lend to him at the casino once you turn your back to him.

That is why I never lend my money to other people who I don't know. Even if I know that person, I will ask him what for that money so I can see that he will not use that money for playing gambling. I will find out his habit first before I lend the money because I don't want him to use the money for something wrong. And using the lending money for playing gambling will be totally wrong because he will be difficult to pay back the money.

If someone suffer because of gambling i think that person is not okay to give him help why because he know the risk of gambling. If he need help because he lose in gambling i think he don't deserve for a help if i have money i will choose to give in poor people than to this guy lossing his money in gambling.
I gamble also but i know how to control my self so that i didn't lose a big amount. Maybe try again next time to find your luck don't be greedy.

Motivation help - Yes
Financial help - No
Buying him a burger - YES

You often come across such gentlemen in the chat boxes of gambling sites. Most of them do get help of a few pennies from the fellow gambling buddies. I personally wouldn't feel remorseful over their loses.

Yes, the size of the loan/help matters big time here. Earlier I said that I wouldn't loan money for gambling, but it totally slipped my mind that I actually was doing that lots of times. I forgot about that because those were small amounts, like $5 max. And if we are talking about such small amounts, that's a whole different story. Although I myself never borrow even $1 to gamble with it, I don't think it's a big deal when someone does it. As long as it's in the range of the money one can afford to lose, there's nothing wrong with that imo.

May be he never ever planned to reply on anyone’s thought and just want to discover the thinking of other gamblers in this perspective. He is just observing the positive and negative feedback. In case of having a good feedback like most of the gamblers will help, the replies could be regarding the further procedure. But as mostly people are not willing to go this far here, he might be just reading through comments. However, the topic is an interesting one.

I would be glad to help someone in a way that I can help them emotionally and mentally by giving advice as much as I can and I know. I can only give advice about gambling issues and I would also be glad to listen to others story. In that way, I can help them how to cope up with it based on my knowledge (I'm not a professional) and at the same time I can also use their experiences to increase my knowledge, to avoid having problems same as them, and to help others who shares the same problem.

But financially, I cannot help anyone. And I don't see it as a help. Because if you really want to help, you'll try to change what is wrong, not encouraging them to continue it.
