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.

Usually broke people live in this kind of situation, we cannot blame them to feel like that but its really not good for them at the end of the day. Your friends should not tolerate that kind of addiction. Don't gamble when you're drunk cause you might do things that is beyond on your control. Control that greed, know how to be more responsible to yourself.

Even me as a reader it makes my heart beat faster, thank god my country is banned casino here so i never experienced that. I only gambling at online casino, once i busted then busted, no more deposit. Never chase your loss like that, once you lose all, no one will care.

Probably the casino owners care because they just got money from you and is not going to feel anything about you. It's good that you still get to gamble online but wouldn't that still be in the restriction of your country or something? Good luck on your future gamblings (if you still do)

Lol. Nothing good ever comes out of getting yourself drunk most especially when it's about money. Those would be nights that'll knock you off again when you look back the morning after. Don't combine alcohol and gambling.

I do not have anything as bad as this when it happened but when I look back on it at hindsight I have even worse.
I had about 2.2 bitcoin lost on gambling at one sit down but it was years ago when bitcoin didn't worth this much. I felt bad than but not horribly like if it happened today.

Now, that I look back on it of course 2.2 bitcoin is horrible however I didn't know that back than. I knew bitcoin would be big tho, so I should have put that money aside instead of gambling with it.

When you plan on visiting the casino with friends, taking an ATM along is really a bad idea. Apart from getting drunk and spending above your budget or spending all your savings, there is also a fear of losing your ATM or your it getting stolen and losing your savings too. Even sometimes your friends can't be trusted too. In fact, apart from ATM, don't take any valuable items.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, or something like that. How ever it is, hold to it. This story is like from some movie, or it can become movie one day.
I think it's hard to control yourself in such moments where old friends are around, a lot of alcohol, some weed, ans other things. Things gone wild and we don't even notice that moment when change comes.
Be happy because in the end you took some money back, you had great night, and learn something from this experience if you can. I never go that far, but I had crazy nights with a less tribulations and in the end I feel a bit shame for all that has been done, but I survived and after some time that becomes good story.

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.

Even if he doesn't hold a cash there are still a way to gamble again there are alot of illegal loan out there that if you resist to payback your life is in danger the best practice is set a limit on your mind and wallet even if you lose on that day then maybe some other time its your lucky day don't work to hard on gambling if you know you are on lossing side.

So many gamblers are now suffering from a big debt because of gambling, and even their own properties are involve on that addiction. Better not to gamble at all, don't chase your friends they are not the real one because if its a true friend they should not encouraged you to gamble. So many stories like this, you must really know to set limits, control yourself and make yourself busy to other things.

$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.

That is the best thing one can do. But if your self-control really gets out of control, I have been in situations where you borrow money from friends who are with you for the entertainment.

Then get better friends. If you are in the situation where you are literally pawning whatever you have on you (like your phone) just to get in one more bet, your friends should have forcibly taken you home a long time ago. Giving someone that out of control more money to keen gambling is akin to buying drugs for an addict.

Depends on the distance and the surge charges available at that point in time. Irrelevant to the topic anyway.

It wouldn't be coo, it would be too expensive to do that. I'm not sure how the betting system works for live matches but considering OP actually went to see the match to live bet, it would be a helluva expensive trip. I mean the tickets and everything.

Wow it was a good read. I liked the emotions in the story. You really want the author to succeed as he's so miserable the whole time.
I have to say that I would've given up after the blackjack part. Maybe he should quit BJ for good and play roulette. He seems to be doing much better there.
Morale of the story? Don't drink and bet! I hope he remembered to wipe the phone before he threw it into that kiosk.

Alcohol and betting go hand in hand. If you're a big-time high roller, you get free alcohol and other drugs while you gamble. This is not just in the movies but also in real life.

That was a nice gambling story to read. The last part was the crazy part for me where he still had the guts to go all in even though he knows that's all he had left.

I guess sometimes Lady Luck will help you out of a hard situation if you show some reckless perseverance despite the odds Wink

Also his shoes. Wink

If he wore a different pair he probably won't bet on any number and walk away with $600+.

This is a good advice if casinos are far from your place if not then it won't do much for you.

I read the whole article and it is a very thrilling piece to say the least. The point where you got into an Uber and sold your phone for a fraction of its initial price was so hardcore haha. I wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to collect some additional money for gambling. I would have admitted defeat, called it a night and have gone back to the hotel. I guess sometimes Lady Luck will help you out of a hard situation if you show some reckless perseverance despite the odds Wink
