This is a short story but once I was playing at a casino on vacation and I spilled by drink all over the table.  I felt like an idiot, at least the staff were nice about it and there wasn't a big scene or anything.
This is different from the walk of shame of other gamblers that doesn't have money left on their pocket.

But yeah this experience is another humiliating story that you've got there.
  This may be true that it might be different from that one but for me, they all are same. They are at same level of shame. They don’t know what they are doing with their lives just because they became addicted for money. They can’t even see what worst is being happening with their own families and how badly they are suffering. They are stupid people who need to work on their own life.

I am not realiy a gambler though sometimes i am beating minimal in some other lottery games. But talking about walk of shame because nothing left in the pocket after the extreme lose is really hard to imagine. I understand that it is not an easy scenario and hopefully it won’t happen to anyone who gamble. Gambling is a choice but hopefully we can manage also our activity and always set the limits first.

Lol. I hope you know what are you odds of winning in a lottery games. I guess walk of shame should be a good learning experience for most gamblers. If you have done it, pretty much you don't want to get the feel of it once more because its very painful I already learned from my mistakes and I wouldn't want to get to see it happened to me again.

@JL421, that is so true. I only buy one ticket and the same number but so far I'm still unlucky but at least I'm not losing big amounts of money.  Grin because the odds are really astronomical.

You lose all your money in lottery, how dumb are you loterries have such high odds that even if you spend 10000$ you still get like a 10% chance or something which is really less and not worth spending so much.
If you buy a lottery ticket just buy one, most likely you will lose but still atleast you don't lose so much money

I've been playing online for quite sometime now and I have my ups and downs. When its a bad day for me and lost majority of my allocated funds for gambling I just turn off my PC and move on with my life. I'll return again when I have enough funds for online gambling. I don't play using my savings, that way I don't feel the guilt and try to recover my losses.
I guess we all we always do have ups and downs when it comes to gambling, but the downs anyway is always based on our gambling mentality or how much we are always able to control ourselves rather than being too injected with the wrong mentality until we end up screwing up all our funds.

After winning or losing, I can imagine what would have felt like and it is one thing to actually be so confident after a win as not being able to limit yourself in such situations will always make you prone to making huge and terrible mistake until you eventually end up losing it all. The fact that they hailed you for hitting a huge win and you getting confident as a result of that was your entire fault. I hope you learned from your experience though.

The thing is considering gambling as a way not to win a lot or possibility of losing so much, will always help reduce the down moments when it comes to gambling since you will pay less attention to it anyway.

I think its best to recognize and accept that the odds of winning after several rounds of complete loss are very very low. In which case, the walk of shame will diverse to be changed to a more positive association. Though, recognizing this is hard which is why most people don't admit and keep going

Its really hard to admit and most gamblers would love to keep going and thinking that they can hit one big jackpot before going home. As @JL421, they really don't have a choice, its all or nothing for them. And when the inevitable happens, and if you ask them want went wrong, they can't explain it as if  they have a different personality inside a casino.

There's no choice left for them, it's obvious when you gamble for a while and you bankroll becomes 50$ from 150$ you won't just quit it their as you will have a mindset that why should i simply lose 100$ and you will try to get your 150$ back but as you mentioned the odds keep lowering and you leave with nothing

If you can consider walking from my pc to bed after losing all, I had one.. Once, I started betting with 200$ and won the Jackpot, it was well over 2500$.. then I continued betting on the same jackpot till I was about RIP and then won almost at the end, which made my balance well over 3000$.. I celebrated the win and all, devil came to me in the form of the "one last bet" thought... I was overwhelmed with having all the luck.. I joined a coinflip...went all in.. and all is gone in 3 secs.. I watched the coin spin away with my money .. that was a tough night to get sleep.

Reading your story was like a memories coming back to me. Lol. It happened to me multiple times in a landbased casino won big but there's almost that one itch you need to scratch and the urge to go for one more bet and then everything happens so fast. 24 hours ago, I had another brushed with walk of shame, had last money as a taxi fare, but decided to take the risk and won was able to recoup and win a few but then decided to make that last bet again capital was almost reduced in half but I was happy to snap and just decided to walk away with just minor losses. Good thing I was able to control my emotions that time.
Haha this is what happens to almost every gambler when they don't recognise the time to stop the game. Anyway it's not a good experience but form learning point of view it can be considered a good lesson for the future. Most of the time we see people complaining about setting the limits and control of greed, when you don't have control over the two, such things will happen frequently.

Greediness is one of the main factor that for sure will lead us to get bad regret at the end. If we keep feeding our greediness then I am sure, there is no way for us to get fun from gambling. It will only give us bad stories again and again.
It has always been like that and greediness wouldn’t make you a better man today or even in the future. When you experience something bad like losing a lot in gambling, you wouldn’t able to stop your greediness because you want to get back what you lost from the past and I think we are all sinners with that.

Wow, I don't know if I would want to feel that because I don't want to. I have a similar experience, but not up to $3000 like yours, mine was only like around $100, but it still hurts like hell. Losing something that you have worked on is not a good feeling. As long as you have risked the amount you are willing to bet on, that should just be the last bet, because we don't want or shouldn't get too greedy on gambling.

I am sure it happens to most of us, getting overwhelmed by emotions and feeling invincible..not realizing that we are making huge bets that we usually hesitate to make..I usually gamble on weekends, or just a little amount from my pay, it usually does not go higher than 50-75$ with 100$ as the line..but that time I don't know what the hell I was thinking going all in 3 grand on coinflip lol

Did anyone here have experience a walk of shame (Walking home since you have a loss all your gambling money in just one snap)? Well, It did happen to me once and I'll never do that again. It was the bad year for me (Peek of my addiction), I normally left my atm/credit card at home if I were to visit a casino and have enough money wih some changes for my stay, food, drink and my fare. The first time it happens to me is when I was so frustrated because I can't win up to point I already spent my allocated money for my fare. I was devastated that I need to go home at 3 a.m. with no money literally and I haven't got a phone in me (which make it worst). Started walking from the casino going home it was the longest walk I ever made I pity myself and upon arriving at home my wife and my kids are already awake, I just can't bare to look at them. I don't even know what to say at that point. I just walk in shame, in front of my kids.

How about you, have experienced it? We all have different interpretation on "Walk of shame".

This is a touching story, but what happened happened, and what is good is that you've learned from it and decided that you'll never do that again. What is also good is that you normally leave your credit card at home when going to a casino. That is a good practice which definitely helps to minimize losses. But what is the most important is that you have the family you care about, because this is much more of a prize than you can ever win in any casino.

I have experienced a different shame where I lost a bet to 3 of my workers during the World Cup. It hasn’t have anything to do with the losses I have that up to the point I didn’t get to go home but What I have done is to practice the saying “bet the amount you are willing to lose” and I did so I didn’t feel so bad when I lost to them. It’s sad but there will be next time.
That's also shameful although you won't walk home with struggling of having nothing on your pocket because you lost all.

You feel ashamed because you lost to your 3 colleagues and I'll feel the same too if that happened to me but you must not be ashamed if you lost to them.

What you should be ashamed is if you haven't paid them and you ran away from your obligation of paying them.

I've never experienced the walk of shame before, BUT I have experienced the walk of anger when I walked for one hour from the casino to the house because the gambling addict that I was with didn't want to go home and it was too late at night to catch a bus.
It is natural when you lose money you will get angry and when you have no more money to gamble with and has to come back with empty pocket will increase your anger. The next day you will try to win back your lost money but again you lose and your will become red due to intense anger. To avoid such anger and shame you should quit gambling today and think about your future and your family as well.

no matter how long we try in gambling, we can get the same experience over and over without any chance to get that money. maybe we have the experience for a walk of shame but luckily, we don't come back to our home without an empty pocket. and yes, I feel that sometimes when I get lost money, I feel sad and angry but then I realize that is just my mistake to stay at the gambling places too long. but I don't have any experience about the walk of shame because I know that if I am going to the gambling places or somewhere else, I still need to have money in my pocket so I can feel safe if something bad happens to me.
