It did not happened in the casino but in a certain gambling place where these people are taunting one another whenever they are winning. I know that it made me pissed at first since they are so noisy and other people can't focus on what they are doing.

But while it last, it is fun to watch since that noisy one was lost and it is more funny seeing the one who are mocked at first are the one mocking him, it is like a revenge story you can only see in the movies or read on stories.

I regularly saw people put a "This slot machine is reserved" sign on a slot machine so that they can go and play another slot machine before coming back to the reserved machine to play it. It's like they don't want anyone to play a particular machine so they keep reserving it every time they walk away from it.

Mine wasn't at a casino but it was related to gambling and bitcoin.

Long time ago, heard from a friend of a friend about Bitcoin. Some guy locally basically bought and sold BTC. This was before localbitcoints and before Coinbase and before BTC ATMs.

Basically after doing a few transactions, I trusted the guy and so did a few other people who knew me.

However my last transaction with this individual didn't end well. I wanted to sell some BTC, so I always sent it first from my computer and then met him up in public to get the money. The guy never showed up. He never responded to messages and he didn't answer any phone calls.

And later on after months and months, I heard from somebody else that knew that guy and apparently he had a bad gambling addiction and he gambled away all his BTC and was scamming others to "break-even" and "pay the bills".

Well that depends on which Casino type are we talking about? Any or just specific one? (Online or Real Life?)

I was playing reactoonz at mBitCasino for a couple of months ago 5mBTC/Spin and hit the Garga bonus 3 times in less then 150 Spins, I did a pretty cool Profit that day.
I tried it again few days ago, not so lucky. but its for sure a fun game

Almost identical to what happened to me but it happened not inside to a casino but to a festival where there are some gambling games. A stranger which I really have no idea why he approached me and then he offered me some of his stuffs such as mobile phone, watch and jewelry. I don't know if that's a modus but his reason was identical as that woman, he lost and he wants to take it back.
Why on earth would he want to take it back after losing ?
These are just some crazy addiction stories that a lot of people are experiencing each and every day and then they tend to get their life wasted on things they could have averted right from the onset, but the urge that usually result from the greedy impulse, will just keep pushing them to do the craziest thing.

I have experienced this before as well but with a cousin, and that was recently, and unfortunately he sold his new IPhoneX to me for as low as $300. I did not know at first as I thought he needed money urgently but he came clean when he came back to me to want to sell some of his appliances.

High level of craziness when it comes to gambling as far as I am concerned. I had to make his parents aware, so they can monitor and find a way to help him before it gets out of hand, at least since he is not married nor have kids yet.
Like what I said, I have no idea why he approached me and maybe that guy has a serious addiction and he lost a lot. This only proves that addiction can come to the extent that whatever we own, we can sell it for the sake of addiction, recovering of our losses or its already a mental disease that can't be stopped easily. And usually with these stories and experience that happened to us, addicted gamblers are willing to sell everything just for it.

Obviously, any one who will go to the length of borrowing to gamble is totally and with no doubt addicted. It is just funny that as some people keep getting smarter to take hold of their life and not get it ruined from gambling, some are just not smart enough to know the path they are threading with respect to gambling is a wrong one. Not being able to control yourself in gambling comes with huge repercussions and definitely this few examples of yours and the OP are some of those repercussions.
That's a sure thing. I can't even blame them for acting that way but its a serious matter that needs to be addressed and solved on their part. However, if they won't do something like controlling themselves and appreciating those things that they have it can possibly won't go that far. But this is just too much for them and I guess they are aware of the consequences of their actions.

Once I was playing the slot machine with my wife when someone that she knew (a distant acquaintance) asked her for $20 cause she ran out of money. My wife gave her $20. Half an hour later, the woman came back, removed her gold chain and tried to sell it for $50 cause she ran out of money again. My wife said no thanks. That was the last time they talked. The woman used to be married and had two sons. Sadly, her gambling addiction caused a strain on her marriage, and resulted in a divorce. Her husband left her and took custody of their children. The woman's gambling got so bad that she ended up working as a prostitute for a while.

What's the strangest or craziest thing you witnessed in a casino?


If a girl gets addicted to something then they won't hesitate to do anything to get that addicted thing in that case she needed money after she got divorced so she maybe worked as prostitute and earned money for playing again in my guess there are lot of things I also wintessed.
Once I was in a casino I saw a person who wants to sell her wife to get money for gambling and finally he sold her too and lost in that bet also just a stupid thing. Tongue

Personally the strangest thing I've ever witnessed at a casino is the normal casino behavior.... People spending dozens of hours every week throwing their money down the drain for the slightest chance that they might strike gold! The fact that people are so blind to the fact they are destroying themselves is insane to me and yet it happens to hundreds of people every day.
The currency that we have to be able to live life easily is money. But the only real currency that we have is time. It's so strange to see people living their lives. Just thinking about how limited our life truly is in this world, people seem to just take their lives and their money for granted. What makes this strange is the fact that there are tons of other things that you can do for your free time. They are mostly free, more enjoyable, increases your social circle, and is more extreme than betting a $100 and then losing it.

Let's say the gambler is an introvert and socializing and being out there really is not their thing. There's still tons of things you can do. Introverts are mostly smart people and reading a book for them is a magical thing. Some plays DnD every Thursday nights with other introverts. Or you can just isolate yourself from the world and play online games. The adventures in online games these days are so good. It takes you in a whole new world. I often wish I can just stay at home and play 24/7 but we need to fend for ourselves. Online games are very rewarding in scenarios like being able to defeat a boss or being able to craft a precious item in the game. If you really can't help but gamble, you can gamble with your in-game currency and your equipments as well.

One of the most weird experienced was when I was talking to a gambler in the casino lounge, at that day he was losing so much and he complained that the God hasn't helped him that day, and all of his lucky charm were not working, he told me that the casino used supernatural things to make the gambler never win any money in the end, its a very weird conversation to me, I knew in Asia people really believed superstitious thing, but some people believed it too much
It is really interesting and ridiculous for me, how does he blame the God, it is really weird.

That is really strange and crazy most especially for a woman. I used to think guys are usually the ones more prone to being an addictive gambler based on their urge to get rich quickly sometimes and take some risks, but these days it is becoming the other way round. It is a sad story for her and honestly, this is one thing people need to start realizing that based on your mentality towards gambling, it can cause more harm to you than you can imagine. Now, she ended up losing all, and now can only resort to prostitution to fulfill her gambling desire. That is like one's life being wasted completely.

It's amusing sometimes to see people lose their heads when gambling, but in general not fun to watch when the repercussions get serious. Never seen anything so crazy in real life, but plenty of news stories to find like this guy who took out so many people and then set fire to a murder-suicide at a casino last year. Casino arson seems pretty frequent in Manila, this just 6 months ago.

Online, I've seen a few people on the brink of going crazy. Just creates all kinds of depression and bad news, luckily the Bitcoin casino owners (at least at the places I play) take measures to prevent these addicts from losing it all.
Really amusing! I have heard mad stories of gambling for a while now, but this one seems to hit me strongly considering the fact that a woman could go that length when it comes to gambling and got affected to the point of hitting the prostitution phase, for someone with kids. It is such a pity. I would not say I feel pity for her, but I really feel pity for the kids she has.

I can imagine how that would even affect them growing up. Most of those who end up becoming an addict to gamble usually end up affecting all those who are close to them in a way. What a crazy world!

This your own weirdness is on the extreme which its only rehabilitation someone like that will have to go through in other to recover from such problem.

For me, the weirdness I witnessed is in a sport gambling sites where I had put a bet on a particular to win the game but unfortunately the match entered into extra time but my team eventually won the game but till tomorrow the match remained unconfirmed which is usually the case as few minutes after the end of the match I am either credited with my winnings or deducted from my balance for losses made. It was after that I realize that, the bet only applies to the first 90 minutes of the game and not anything that happen afterwards.

Well an old guy trying to force his way to a card dealer and getting thrown out by a bouncer seems pretty weird already to me considering it was a pretty big casino. That took quite the attention while i was there.

If you mean a real casino than I have never been in a casino. However if we are talking about online places as well than the craziest thing I have ever seen was someone making 2000 bitcoin from primedice by some sort of "hacking the seed" type of system, I mean it wasn't illegal or against the rules or anything, dude just simply took advantage of systems weakness and made primedice lose 2000 bitcoins in just an hour or so. He took out most of it as well, withdraw from the website and made it off with it. Primedice, the biggest dice website in the whole world, had to readjust and stop giving lower rank people signature campaign.
