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.

I feel sad for that woman. You see how gambling can affect someone's life that badly. As for me, when I go to the casinos, the only strange thing I witness is people's behavior and how they look at each other. It is like they have killing eyes. And with the focus they have, it is like they really are going to win. And if they lose, their facial expressions change. I enjoy watching people's behavior and make my own analysis. It is really fun if you ask me.

many things I can find if I meet people who play gambling, especially offline gambling. someone's curiosity can defeat everything even if he is able to gamble and experience losses that can spend a lot of money, in various ways he can do everything in the offline gambling place, so he is forced to sell valuables such as cellphones and watches, he offering goods that he had only to get money because of his curiosity to be able to play again, I was happy to buy the item because he sold below the market price. but from that incident, I can take the lesson that if we have run out of money in gambling we should not do things that are very detrimental, we should be able to make decisions to stop before we lose everything we have

I've not been at real casinos too often, but I have seen one really crazy thing at a casino in Prague when I was on holiday there.
A guy had just lost a lot of money and went on a small rampage when he had lost the last of his money on roulette.
He was kicking the machines and shouting at staff, but I have no idea what he was saying, since he spoke Czech or Russian (I can't hear the difference and it was a Russian owned casino)
He ended up being dragged out by security and that was the end of it.
Was pretty scary, since the guy was looked pretty big and strong.

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

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.

That is a sad story wrote by the OP, I know that girl was addicted already on gambling and that is not looking good to see that girls like us gambled even have already a family. Since the start, his husband already knows that she is a gambler that needs her to leave that kind of habits. There is no way to play gambling for a good future, as earlier as you can leave it while you can control your self. Don't let gamblings control you that is not a good influence from your family and makes probably craziest thing that you've experienced if you let that happen.

Fights between the gamblers for some silly reason is looks like the strange thing for me,most of the time the players fights for the girls out there. 
The words will be exchanged first and sometimes it will go all the way like physical endanger between them.

This is really a sad story to hear and this is what exactly in many posts I refer that if you cannot have control, gambling will take control of you and rest will be just wait and watch for the person as this will destroy as gambling is just to have fun and not to make money.

gladly, I don't have the strangest or craziest as your experienced because I never playing gambling at the real casino so I don't meet the real person. this could be a good lesson for you or your friends that playing gambling too often because they can be addicting in gambling and they can lose all of their money like that woman. we don't know what next that can happen if we are still playing gambling and I guess, in the end, we can do like what that woman did. we can sell all the things that we have just to continue playing gambling because we think that we can win in the next round.

I remember my first casino visit to Macao with my cousins, I had decided to carry lot of cash and had decided to play and win a lot. After trying slots, roulette and other machines I finally gave up, I was simply loosing. On the other hand my cousin kept on winning big, after a while I told him let's leave you won good, but like they say greed makes you blind, he lost everything, then he asked me for some funds which I gave, post that he was ready to sell his iPhone which I said no, he even approached a stranger to sell his suit. This kind of weird things do happen, just you should be careful with whom you go to the casino.

Same experience but the person who approached is completely stranger to me.At first reaction you wont really expect that it do happen face to face where you can able to see such addiction is already coming to an extent What's the strangest or craziest thing you witnessed in a casino?
where a person already sell out his belongings.For those player who are addicted wont really care at all but for casual or thrill seekers will definitely notice such thing.
I even experience it these on local gambling places specially when someone knows you.

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.
