So there is already thread about "Your Highest Earning IN A Day " but what is your highest loss in day?

Decided to play around with forex trading back in 2011. Lost about $200 in the space of three days, or about $100 in one. Fortunately made most of it all back a few days later, withdrew it all, and never traded forex again.

An expensive but worth lesson. I have learned not to touch ponzi schemes even if BTC is only $6 and I was minting 10 BTC a day Sad

$185,000.00 USD in a real estate transaction that soured.

That one hurt!

In US real-estate that's not that bad. We have 1 home that was bought for 600K and went down to 330K at one time. It's still about 110K under.

Over 10,000 BTC in the collapse of pirateat40 Trendon (fucking bastard) Shaver's Bitcoin Savings and Trust ponzi scheme.

I wonder what that would be worth today...

Yeah BurtW lost a few more than me, but probably because he got in earlier. I didn't get in until May and that was stupid. I should have doubled and ran but max.btc didn't respond to my PMs since he ran off with the money most likely.

Couldn't be bothered to complain to bitpay, so $2 is all the bitcoin I ever lost.

They did it with a $150 transaction too, but I emailed them about that one and they returned it.

You learned the lesson cheaply mate..! many out there take 10s and hundreds of btc to get it..! all in all a wise decision.

But the thing is, once you are introduced to gambling the little devil lives inside, dormant for however long until one day you fancy playing again.

Definitely a cheap way to realise the real risks that gambling pose. PrimeDice's Stunna always says that it is about the entertainment value, which is why they have a free faucet to play from. Even that can be addictive - which is how a lot of people actually get involved for real.

You do well to stop and not go back to try earn your losses back.

I think that gambling to win back money lost through gambling is one of the silliest things, but it is a hard habit to break for those engrossed in the idea. I've lost about 0.2 on dice games but don't think I'll go back either...

I lost about $1100 shorting bitcoin's price spike in early March. I had made much, much more shorting in February, so it was okay. But it hurt stopping out my position and taking the loss. This was around the $590 level.

Wow that's nice, but if you're only $400 up then you must have lost almost all of it again :S

I'm still up on my initial investment, but that is dwindling with some of the pisstaking that is going on with alts.

I usually play with bitcoins I earn
I never play with money out of my bank account

Say I got cut off the internet right now, I would have $400 in profit from bitcoin gambling
The money I have lost was money I never had Wink

But it is money that you could have had, if only you had cashed out Tongue

C'est la vie, as they say. It's hard to quit when you're doing well then run into a few losses.

Dice games are far too risky for my liking. I've never had any decent lucky on them, they just bring disappointment - particularly if you attempt to up the stakes. I never gamble with any thing that I have paid for - just earned Bitcoins.

I've lost around 0.2 BTC to dice games, a far cry from some of the losses others have incurred.

Nothing major, a few hundred dollars, but relatively speaking it was still a massive kick in the balls.

Sometimes an actual loss is hard to take, but its the missed opportunities that are the hardest for me to get over.

Missed opportunities where you were going to buy, but stopped, then you see the price sky rocket - or some speculatively low buy order, those are the ones that can literally wipe out your losses and see you in huge profits.

About $1200 and In bitcoins that would be like 5 bitcoins at that time , was pretty bad feeling. After that I had even bigger loss of $3000 but It wasn't in bitcoins It just was dollars and after that loss I play more smart and never lost something like that again, so I learned from my own mistake pretty fast I would say

Gambling could be such addictive thing I can say from my own experience but one day you can master It and don't fall for the none stop betting without any logical thinking till your balance hits 0, lol.
