my biggest losses in gambling have always been in dice games. especially because i am usually playing dice using martingale strategy (not all the time though) but as we all know martingale always leads to a big losing streak that will drain the bankroll.
Haha its mainstream dude I have seen people suffered defeat at dice and I was not amazed by it
Dice has the possibility of losing is greater than any other game because the dice just rely on luck as the primary way to win. so I would not be surprised if a lot of people who admitted defeat of the dice

The funny thing is people keep concentrating in pulling down the house in dice, knowing that the dice has the advantage one cannot do that unless he got a huge amount of money bigger than the dice money pot. Usually people will lose in dice because they cannot manage their bets properly and they tend to increase their time on playing when winning where in fact the reality is the longer you play in dice the bigger chances you lost.

I think my biggest loss sportsbetting was when I had a parlay going on and I needed the last team to win. They were leading right about the very end when the equalizer happened and I lost the parlay. The wager itself wasn't that big but the odds were great and I am still upset to this day that parlay didn't make it...
That's it, parlay is fun especially when you bet with a lot of teams to compose your parlay, I have also a similar experience with you with my last leg of parlay lost. Although I only bet with around 0.001 worth of BTC but the payout is also around over 1 BTC if my memory still serves me right, I was really excited that time and planning to hedge the last game but I decided to let it go and the result is I lost.

I do gambling very less and so I never have a biggest loss in gambling. I have only little loss in gambling that was too less to say.

I think I lost $10 in playing slot machines in a casino. For me that's pretty big because I don't gamble that much.

Losing on gambling really sucks, especially when you can't afford to lose that amount. Personally I've experience that, losing what I can't afford to lose (around 1 BTC) , and its indeed devastating. I feel numb when I saw my balance. I really hate that dice site where I lose my coins (though I know its my fault for being greedy Cheesy ) Anyways I already learned from my mistake, I'm still gambling but I know my limits now.

Devastated by a 0.1 loss? Man, you guys have pretty low ambitions. I was expecting to be reading about thousands of coins down the drain.

How about yours ? Tell us your biggest loss on gambling then. Everyone have their own budget, 0.1 for someone is also big. And for me, 0.1 also big.

i have lost many small bets here and there so i think the accumulated amount lost is much more than one time losses.

as an estimated amount i can say i have lost around ~0.3BTC in gambling which is a lot of money for me to lose but i have also won here and there too so that covers it.
Still thats huge for you to lose, i only lose 200k satoshis. good for you you manage to cover some of your losses.
Mine cant cover my losses for a small bankroll.

As I never play with big amounts of money my losses are always manageable.
I think my biggest loss was something around $30.

My biggest loss with gambling is that I lost around some 0.5 BTC and that is not that much but it is still wasted and that is quite bad because losing money is always not good for yourself.
And to reduce your loss you have to play with some small amounts so you are not losing that much money if you are losing in gambling so you are saving also a bit money.

My biggest lost in one session was 0.1 BTC at dice gambling site. That was such a very bad day for me. I think my luck at those day was horrible. I stopped bet for awhile after that big lost and started again a month after it. Fortunately, I can recover my previous lost and now I start to collect some profit.
That's new, you are one of those exceptional person who profit from gambling. Most of us here share our losses together with our sadness. LOL

For me though I lost a lot of coins but I already recovered, now I still bet on sports betting but was able to control already. I bet on nitrogensports.eu, you can check my bets if you want.

Mine was .04 on egames. It had the highest percentage winning and they were really dominating at there bracket. But then one clash changed it all. That wasnt the first time but since i bet high price it was regrettable.

My biggest loss 0.13BTC from dice gambling, loss so fast on the dice, so I do not want anymore to play dice.

One time losing will happen to every one but realization like you will not happen to every one so fast. That is a very good thinking after losing so much so fast you understood that in dice game we can make money but just need to play for fun.

I usually bet on sports, over all I'm in profit (more than 1BTC) but my biggest lose is around 0.05 BTC. I don't bet much on any single match.
That's what you called proper discipline, proper bankroll management in sports betting is also one of keys in winning for the long run. Don't be too over confident that you will place your wager in a bet that you think impossible to loss, think that gambling is a shady word so as the sports where some games are rigged.

Yah it really takes a lot of discipline to gamble on esport. I used to make a bit of winnings at first but i ended up bet bigger to cover back the loss and eventually i end up losing like 2btc.

Mine is BTC0.1. I felt absolutely devastated after that...

Please do share your experiences and your biggest loss.
its still little amount for gambler,lost more than 1BTc is not weird for pro gambler,and for me,its not matter how much i loss,i just care about my profit,its why i dont have stats of my loss. lol
It always brings down to who is gambling really. 0.1 might be a small amount for others but for others that might be their life savings. We have our own financial status so the important thing to do is just gamble what we can afford to lose.
