Drunk + pissed + losing streak + ATM is not a good combination when you are in a casino. The chance of losing a lot of money is very high since you are drunk, your decision making is messed up and that is on top of the losing streak. To control the amount of money you spend in gambling, you just bring only the amount of money you plan to spend. Leave the ATM card at home. If it's possible go to the casino using a cab, much better, there are loan sharks waiting around the casino who accepts cars as collateral for those who wants to win back their money.

This is the worst combinations you'd want to be in before going to or when in a casino. For sure, you're going to lose and being drunk also makes the situation a whole lot worse because you could even bet what you don't even have. Very dangerous and highly not recommended. Good eye opener.

This is only applies to gambling games that requires decision making such as poker. But games like dice games, and roulette, this doesn't apply. Sober or not, you have the same chances of winning which is pretty low. With the same logic, being sober and going to the casino will make you millions.

How about writing cheques?

Leave the ATM card at home.

As well as jewelry like earrings, rings, and watches. Bring just yourself.

I really wouldn't go to the casino using a cab because what if you win instead? Will you really risk being in a car with a stranger while holding a lot of money. I really think that if you are at that point that you're ready to sell your car just to continue gambling, you're far deep down the gambling rabbit hole. None of these advice will help since you're ready to sell something that is very useful to you and is a necessity in your daily life. But I guess we never really know what can happen in the casino that'll push you to your limits.

Definitely one heck of a night. I haven’t experienced that type of gambling where you would go drunk and just spend a lot of money just to get back and even selling your brand new phone just to get it back. I agree with the conclusion at the end of the story where you should just go home when you feel tilted and never force it.

This is what the addiction or the greediness do to you and you understand it later when the you have lost it all. If you have lose some money it is fine but don't play another to recover it because in that case you will be playing till you recover it and which may not happen always.

Humans are greedy and this is natural but don’t let this greed start eating you up. Most of the cases with gamblers, they start invading in this game so deep that their comeback is somehow hard and stiff. They can’t let theory mind come out of this trauma. So don’t be like it and start thinking about your families and relatives and blood relations who are caring about you.

$25 for an uber ride? $50 round trip? Shocked How much do they charge per mile/kilometer? Huh Maybe I've been living under a rock but that sounds crazy to me.

Cool story. I didn't realize you lived in vegas or near to a place where gambling is legal enough to be savvy @ house games. Is it based on a true story or personal experience? Also how has MMA betting been going for you? I have not seen you post in any of the recent UFC threads for awhile. I've never been to Vegas but it could be cool to visit someday to gamble on MMA e

The story is real and from a guest writer. Ive been to vegas, im mostly playing craps and bac in London. Ive been doing good in German Soccer and MMA you can follow my picks at https://t.me/degensignals I will try to get back to posting in the MMA threads here too.

You also love the NFL, I reckon? I am a casual football fan and I would like to listen to more of your game analysis and why you make your bets every week in the NFL betting thread. Thank you.

If you are a true degenerate, than you are definitely familiar with the concept of “burning out” when it comes to gambling. We’ve all been there before, but for some of us the experiences are much more eye opening than for others. This is a tale about a time where wagered amounts that were way beyond what anyone would consider an “acceptable” gambling budget based on the amount of money I had at the time. Nevertheless, I will begin by telling you that sometimes you are just forced to go to a casino because that’s where your friends just so happen to be meeting up.

This is a story of one of those nights. This is a tale of a complete and utter degenerate gambling night, one in which there was lots of beer, coffee, comp meals, and visits to the ATM involved.

https://degenbet.com/sometimes-enough-is-enough/

There is a saying in my local language that says "that show me your friends and i will show you your character" and i believe that it goes perfectly with what you are implying because if you friends are always at the casino gambling then it will eventually become your place of socializing and whiles you all meet there, you are going to end up gambling there because that's what you go there to do.

Exactly we all have heard of this statement too, a man is known by the company he keeps. And literally this is exactly right in case of gambling. When your friends ask you to company them in casino and you aren’t actually playing. But you may be get impressed by the way house is letting them play and then you start trying your own luck. First wins and then a row of defeats.

I know the habit of meeting or hanging around to the most convenient place that your pack usually hang around, and it will always entice everyone to engage what the place have offer the customers. Specially in gambling where self-control is the main issue.

Absolutely. If you are a gambling addict trying to kick your addiction, then why on Earth would you agree to meet friends in a casino? You wouldn't invite a recovering alcoholic to a bar - why is this any different?

Even if the primary intention is not gamble but the meeting place suggest to gamble they will all end up gambling.

The problem is people do not understand how much is enough and when to stop greed is a bitch, but I believe everyone should be able to control it rather than hide behind it. I believe everything can be done in a reasonable manner and it can be healthy just what is a reasonable manner depends on person to person. I think it's high time people take responsibility for their actions.

yes, I agree with you. people still chasing their winning money without knowing that actually, they are winning much money. they never satisfied with what they can get in gambling and this makes them continue the game. it is natural since we are human and want to get bigger from something but if we don't know about the risk behind that, then they need to be prepared to get what they did.

This is why addiction is a problem. When people are addicted, they have no control of themselves. All rational thought goes out of the door. I don't think that it's natural or human nature to continuously seek for pleasure. That's the problem with pleasure seekers -- it's like nothing ever satisfies them anymore. The law of marginal utility should be applicable however with people suffering addiction it seems like there's no end to it. It only worsens as these people seek to satisfy their thirst for pleasure.

Actually more people really seeks for better lucky winnings, and that expectations always frustrates. You won't even control them in a sense that betting has no satisfaction over their addictions. Generally it made a person more binded on their habits, rather than quitting from the current attitude. It became a personality if you can't control yourself, because the disease is not just physical but also includes emotional.

Really well written article, got my interest right till the end.
What I don't understand is that he bets big parts of his bankroll in single bets.

I mean he started with 500 dollars the first time and places more than 50 dollars on his first bet, playing blackjack.

Quote

set out 2 $25 spots and a $1 dealer bet on each hand, as well as my one and only attempt at the lucky ladies bonus which was a $5 chip and a $1 dealer bet on the bonus spot. Consider it my degenerate ritual when it comes to playing blackjack.

No wonder he's always going back to the ATM, when he hardly has any play time due to his large bet sizes.

indeed it is a cycle of gambling and as gamblers we already know that the cycle is indeed going through and how to anticipate play wisely jangn wear emotions, and when we experience the cycle be patient because if one step you will not be able to control yourself and it will hurt you.

the principle of playing gambling if you do not want this bad thing to happen it must be done, the defeat that continues to be overwritten should be terminated by stopping whether you will stop for a moment or forever it helped you, a very good article.

Don't go to the ATM. If you don't have the self control to not do that, then leave your bank cards at home. Go out gambling with a set amount of hard cash - if you run out of cash, and have no bank cards on you, then you have no option but to go home.

Yeah, no kidding. It's like if you have a drinking problem and wind up drinking more than what you withdrew from the ATM and went to a bar because that's where your friends are. Once you realize you have a problem, self-control goes right out the window and there's no going back to normal drinking--or gambling. I think gambling is just as bad or worse than any alcohol problem, as it drains your bank accounts faster than a bottle ever will, plus it strains relationships with family and friends to the point where they can easily be ruined.

This guy went to a casino, but I think crypto gambling is in some ways even worse. Games can be very high-speed, and there's no one watching you. You can gamble on your smartphone in your bathroom if you so choose. The amount of degenerate gamblers on bitcointalk is staggering--I've read so many stories of ruin here, it's unbelievable. These crypto dice sites have got to be making fortunes.

In the situation like this, self control is all that is needed. Don't get hooked on to something which will lead to a definite loss. Sometimes gambling is good and sometimes this will lead to a loss. So when you feel like lossing so much of your money, you have to calm yourself and say stop for a while and recover those losses.

Right.Self panic will only cause you more harm and even lead you to a much losses in life.Gambling is good if you know how to handle and control your emotions.But if you let your emotions all come out,i'm sure it will only make you desperate in the end.Sometimes we should let our minds first overcome with what our hearst felt.

It's a very nice read with good wording and unexpected plot twists. Also I found this ad to be pretty smart and innovative, if I may say so. Here it is. It's not everyday you can see this kind of a clickable ad:

In the story itself I enjoyed the most the main character's approach to the "Lucky numbers", which is closely related to my own view of them:

Quote

"... I place them on red and wait for all of the other people around me to complete their fucking bets that are on their numbers and other superstitious bullshit."

This is exactly how I think of the lucky numbers too, but ... anything can happen in a casino. Later that night, our gambler decided to "put $40 straight up on 23" because he "was wearing some brand new Air Jordan shoes at the time and they had the number “23” on them in a lot of different places." You better read yourself about what happened next, I don't want to spoil it for you.
