Topic: Worst mistake in gambling - page 47. (Read 42612 times)
The worst mistake I made was when I tapped max bet by mistake then rolled and lost. I was trying to swipe down. I guess I wouldn't complain had I won. Still I think having a security feature against that is in order. Maybe you can even turn it off. I'm sure many of you here have made this mistake. So who else has done this ?
It is easy to say but hard to implement. I have tried to control my betting size as well as time of the session. But with time and at some point everything fails.
Everything fails only because you are not determined enough to control it and do what you set from the beginning. You are the main reason that it all failed. If you are determined enough to stick to the plan than that wont happen. Even if it does happen then the chances for it to ruin yourself should be low enough
You are correct, but I understand that it's hard to do that, at least in the beginning. I would suggest that he, or anyone in his situation, would just try to do some "paper gambling". I know it might sound stupid, but it's not. If you are not risking any money, and just simulating bets, then you have nothing to lose and can keep calm and test some gambling strategies. In the long run you can see if it works or not. If it does, then you have built some confidence and will probably continue to remain calm when you are making real bets.
Controlling yourself for bets is to increase the portion of the level and continue to expand it to an ideal level. We can't control fully because it must be adjusted to conditions at that time, every condition is never the same, we can still use a minimal pattern for continuous level control.

The mistake I keep making is to not being able to stop, thinking that after a streak of loses a good win will come - which always ends up with bankruptcy.
We fail to understand that if we don't stop, house will always win.

This mistake is very common, it is very easy to stop this mistake though, simply think of any limits of money you can risk through week and if you reech that limit stop gambling. This way you still will gamble and maybe feel happy, but at same time you won't lose as much money, you just have to be strong and don't gamble after you reech limit.

No matter if you win or lose, you should always integrate short breaks into your gambling sessions.
A 5 minute break on the balcony with fresh air will make you think clear again.

I think that what you said, it's very positive for a gambler. Even when he lose or win. Taking breath it's a good way to concentrate and focus in what you do and what you should do. for exemple if you loss you should control yourself and search the best way to recover you loss and not to continue gambling without refreshing your memory.

Basically I never made a mistake like sending btc to the wrong address like the one in the op, lol.. my worst mistake in gambling is that I can not control my emotions after getting a bit lost and keep playing until I go bankrupt.
It's a clear mistake and observation when you send your bitcoin to the wrong address and that's not related to gambling. My mistakes in gambling are always the same with others. And I consider all of them as worst mistake because every single decision that I made is making me regret all the time.

It's greediness, you change directly your initial plan once you have achieve it, instead of stopping and take the win you still go to make more.
With that attitude within us, we will never gonna succeed, gambling is for wise people in order for you to stay.

Thats pretty much sum up how stupid you are, you would probably want to recheck what you have written. Wise people dont gamble, period. Everyone knows that you cant almost win in the EV- games so why even bother trying it. Some people are smart enough to avoid it and only play EV+ games to get profit.
Sorry, that's what I get when I'm not leaving the game.
I have won a lot but I was forced to continue playing but my heart and mind are impossible to play and I finally lost
This is the popular result if you are not going to stop when you've got enough winning already. And if you are not contented with the current profit you made for sure it will lead you to lose a lot and even your capital fund for gambling will also be sucked by the house. Just learn the lesson, stop when you got enough.I have won a lot but I was forced to continue playing but my heart and mind are impossible to play and I finally lost
It's so easy to say, but when you start to play, the greed does not allow you to satisfy the hunger with a small profit. I want to break the maximum jackpot
It will always come to your mind if you haven't experience to fall in gambling. But once you have that failure you will be aware of what you are doing and in that way, that is going to give you some good start. And you will learn from your past failures and even worst mistakes. It's the good thing when you passed to that situation.
I made the mistake once of maxing out the slots in 1 spin and lost .347 btc. IN ONE SPIN, oh my gosh that was a moment of absolute panic, my heart was loud in my ears, my breath turned into panting, and I was almost passing out. Bad day indeed!
I had moments like this one, your max single bet was just higher then mine, I was playing slots on 20 30 mBTC per spin, and 0.5 BTC gone very fast, I think I lost everything everything in couple minutes.
Also I have one story for roulette, I'm not sure but I had more then 0.25 BTC I started to bet on red, and on red and on red, my last bet was around 0.1 and something but even after 15 blacks, and couple green's I didn't get red and I lost everything in minute or two.

What are some the more idiotic and stupid mistakes that you know you shouldn't have made but did anyway. Yes this includes other none gambling stuff like sending btc to the wrong address. I'm interested to find out the stupid things other people do. 
In my experience, the worst thing that I have done is maximizing my bets in dice game due to greediness. At start, I'm so happy since the result is gibing me advantage. However, when the house edge is taking an advantage, I can't stop believeing in myself that I can beat it thus I increased my bet until I put all of my money in a bet which cause me to lose the game.That happens to me once when I started gambling. I often times win in a single game and my confidence became pride with greed and then I lost all my money and feel ruined. Lesson learned after that horrific event

I was like that as well until I lose everything. People need to realize that it is a mistake to play like that. Well you could win but I think that many people lose instead of winning so they need to quit to do thigs like that. It is better to focus on playing for fun instead of playing like that
As that mistakes usually about to continue playing while you are up and actually could collect the winning immediately.
But unfortunately greedy always takeover your decision and everytime you will burn your money in the end.
