Sorry for your loss op.
Few years back an old gambler told me to first buy everything you need for the month (i was a student back then) and then come here in casino, and play your heart out if u will.
Sadly that happened after i lost about 1200 EUR, that i shouldnt loose, it was my rent, my food money, and everything for 3 months, but the lady luck didnt turn back on me, with 200 EUR i had left, i got to
about 1000 EUR, so the loss was only ~200EUR in the end. I never made the same mistake again. Gambling aint can be fun if youre doing it right, even when ure loosing, just dont loose what u cant afford.

cheers

Hey man, sorry to hear that. Just for the people reading this, NEVER gamble what you can't afford to loose.
Always remember you are playing AGAINST the odds.
Hope all goes well man.

The thing that I find really scary is that I had no previous track record of gambling until very recently.

At a guess, half a dozen fairly successful sessions and then one morning, in twenty minutes, its gone!

I never craved gambling..I found it fun.  Until I got involved in crypto, I had barely placed a bet in my life.  Crypto makes it very easy to lose your money gambling.

The Darkcoin community have been really supportive.  I'm also lucky to have good friends and an amazing wife.

Oh man,that is terrible, but although you can't recover that,the best you can do is to learn about your mistakes and to prevent others from making the same mistake.
Sorry for your loss,but you can learn from it for your life  Undecided

Your the smartest man I've seen today Smiley Gambling is a addiction due to the release of dopeamine and adrenaline you get while gambling. Basically the human body's way of producing cocaine. Been on that too. Same rush from both. I know how addicting gambling can be. Just the thoughts of all that money you could win. Your bad days will come and go, and that's part of it. But I am glad you decided to quit gambling. You indeed sir are a smart man.

Hi,

I have lost over 300BTC through theft and one 20 minute self destructive gambling spree in the last year or so.


Oh dear wow dude that is on the side extreme gambling most do not gamble nowhere near that, the most i have seen someone post who has lost was 650btc and now another 300btc that is crazy amounts to be putting into gambling sites.

Hope that does not get you to down and you can bounce back, i don't mean play and try and win but move on with your life and forget gambling because the feeling must suck.

Thanks for the warning for myself and others good luck with whatever you choose.

As a gambler I know the feeling your going through. I lost a little over 2k at "The Magic" in Mississippi and ended up going to jail there (Harrison Co) which was due to the free drinks you can get at the casino as long as your gambling. I feel your pain man, I really do. I do say this with empathy and no judgemental aspect towards you and I'm sure you have heard it before, Gamble only what you can afford to lose. On that note, I hope you win it all back as well Smiley

Kinds words.  Thank you.

No betting for me any more.  I've got nothing I can afford to lose!
