$40 gone in just a day. That's when I hated myself the most. I got careless, I got greedy, I was so angry that I let them take my money without even thinking about it first.
That's a huge amount here in our country and I didn't think I could go to that extent of losing amount just because I am chasing my losses. Now, I am trying to get it all back using the bonuses I acquired by spending all that money. Somehow I got a part of that loss but still not enough. I know what I am doing is wrong because chasing losses could mean losing more but I have a plan to just use the won amount today and let it go if ever all that profits are gone.
Gambling sites have means to put everything back to normal although the fact is they will keep on taking.
I got lucky 2-3 times in my gambling rounds. The only difference that I see now is I get more spineless whenever I see a profit. There's this perspective that I don't want to continue because they might take it back unlike how I did it before.
Truly, chasing losses is a headache and I don't want to be in the same position again. Luckily, I got some wins and I might stop if ever I feel like it's enough. Just getting 50 percent back will be okay for me. And then maybe I can get lucky again after a good night's sleep.

I lost my savings for 6 months in a single night because I was too eager to win. If I can remember it correctly, it was the release of a new car and I wanted to double my money to buy it the next day. Unfortunately, things did so bad that I lost that much. I never blame anyone other than myself qbout what happened. Actually, up until now, regrets stil kicks me because that was a lot of money to be spent only in gambling. It just became a learned lesson however, an expensive one. Losing is part of the game and I am fully aware of that but there are just things and desires that would push you to your limits.

Probably my worst experience, imagine working for six months and saving just to 'give' it to gambling providers. No matter how I just want to laugh on the situation, it just still hurts the same. Eversince, ai assured to manage my bets. Whether I lose or win, there will be a limitation. Greed will push you to do things outside your risk tolerance. I accepted how gambling works that day and so far I am doing a lot better than my early years in this industry.

...gambling responsibly. Do not be addicted.
I was going through reddit in the early hours of today, and came across a user who lamented bitterly through his post, of how unlucky he has been in gambling in the past few weeks, like almost a month now, he said he bets minimum, twice every day, but have not won a dime for the past weeks, and this made him hate himself so much, I sincerely felt pity for him, for I remember one time I lost a huge sum of money to betting, I felt so bad that I thought of killing myself  Grin.
Many people that are gambling want to make money from gambling. That is where the addiction starts. I have been like the person before, although I gain and lose but my losses are always more. Sometimes I will gain but instead for me to quit for the day, I will continue to gamble and ended the day with losses. If I gain I continue to gamble. If I lose I continue to gamble. That is the problem with addiction. The more you are addicted the more you will just feel like gambling.  He needs to change his mentality about gambling. He should stop gambling with the amount of money that he can not afford to lose.

I've never hated myself because of gambling, nor did I hate myself at all for any other reason.
I don't lose much money and I'm a casual gambler, so there's really no bad sides of this. It's more of a hobby for me than anything else.

There were situations where I felt bad about it, like I wasted so much time playing a game and it was all for nothing because I lost, but that happens when you get your priorities wrong, meaning that you don't understand what the goals are. You're paying to have fun and if you lose it's still money well spent.

Go after the goal... Go!!! It is worth getting!
To be honest, I have not been in this kind of gambling situation, and I don't pray to get pushed any day to the extent that I will gamble off the amount that will make me regret my actions.

When I started gambling, I can remember that I made some mistakes, like putting all my hope in the amount that was supposed to be won, while winning is not guaranteed, and most of the time, the game gets blown and I feel bad. In those days, my friend also advised me to stake an extra 60% of the initial money I wanted to stake on a game (it was a sports game), which I did, but at the end, the team that was supposed to win the match lost and the game got busted. I felt very bad that day, but I did not hate myself; I just took it as a common lesson.

The day I played Crash, I lost huge money because the game was so tempting, and I was just glued to the game to make sure I could reach up to 200x multiplayer because any time I did not stake any amount, it would get to 200x and above, but as soon as I staked some money, it might just stop at 20x or 50x, so I kept playing until I lost a lot of money that day, but I did not hate myself. As a gambler, don't just take things too seriously. Don't dwell so long on your losses, but rejoice more when you win.

Gambling loses can be very painful and frustrating,  it can make you begin to imagine if you were born with hard luck. This was my case when I haven't taken control of my emotions, then if I lose, I increase the gambling amount thinking that will help me recover the loss only to sink deeper into loses. I hated myself so much but I couldn't help but come back again to gamble another day, not remembering the previous experience that left me in deep pains.

I'm glad that those dark days are over, now I plan my gambling, from game selection to maximum acceptable lose to target wins, everything is dutifully arranged.

Never give up
Let me start by asking a question that is not very much different from the topic..

In your entire gambling journey, have you ever had a series of losses to the extent you hated yourself so much for being so unlucky?

I was going through reddit in the early hours of today, and came across a user who lamented bitterly through his post, of how unlucky he has been in gambling in the past few weeks, like almost a month now, he said he bets minimum, twice every day, but have not won a dime for the past weeks, and this made him hate himself so much, I sincerely felt pity for him, for I remember one time I lost a huge sum of money to betting, I felt so bad that I thought of killing myself  Grin.

So, let's share our worst gambling experiences, have you ever hated yourself so much due to lack of winnings in gambling? To what extent, and how did it end?

Do you still hate yourself even now?  Grin

Lets discuss.
Am very much sure that I haven't hated my self for losing, this will only make you gamble more because you would want to win and gain back your losses which is of 2 different options either lose or win and losing can cime very easy, which means you will continue to lose more.
Gamble who can do so is a type that doesn't cash out because of their greediness, what what greediness can cause.
When you bet a game and the casinos gives you an opportunity to cash out but you didn't , you might also lose the little one they gave to you that you rejected including the money which you staked with. Such things will make some people to hate them selfs because they have lost that money that they once have an opportunity for.

Had this terrible experience in 2015 when I was sourcing funds for some school clearance, I thought it was a good decision to just go play virtual soccer and augment my funds since I already have half the money, I foolishly obeyed the voice of destruction from within me and went for the drill. log story cut short; I was drilled so hard that I lost the half of the money in my possession to gambling. I literally felt like ending my life that day at the thought of having to gather the funds from the beginning again, like I literally cursed myself over and over again for my foolishness. It was a very bitter experience, but I learnt a valuable lesson from it.

Eloncoin.org - Mars, here we come!

there are instances that i can recall the loss i made whenever i visit again the casino and then try to remind myself to withdraw whenever i win a certain amount. i don't really hate much that i think of killing myself but it keeps reminding me of the loss whenever i see the casino signature.

what i could say is that i learned my lesson and if ever i go back to that casino again, i will make sure to withdraw even when its just $50.
