Title: Worst/Best Betting Mistake Made By You?
Post by: Decoded on December 29, 2015, 10:32:50 PM
Hey guys, id just like to know what all of our worst ever betting mistakes are. Mine personally was not very big, but was a huge affect on me as a bitcoin newbie, as I only had 0.1. I went to bet that 0.1 on Magicaldice, but instead of gambling 0.1 on a 90% soon chance, I bet the same on a 9% win chance.

Surprisingly, I won. I had gathered that 0.1 from faucets and gambling on freebitco.in. (even with their 5% house edge)

Damn you won that? could've been a huge mistake. I don't know what's my worst one ever but the one most recently happened at the local casino. It's playing Texas hold em, in a 1/2 cash game. I was in the big blind and it was folded around to the small blind. The pre-flop raise is $25, I see is hands shaking he looks really nervous. I have actually figure he has a huge hand. I have ace king suited so I just raise him all in pre-flop. I hit my ace on the flop and he hit his king on the river. Not a huge mistake, a pretty typical poker move that I would've made it nine times out of 10.but that doesn't mean it didn't hurt to lose my money. The mistake was I think I could've played it better by calling pre-flop and playing from the flop.

I made a mistake in poker, actually it happens a lot lol
I sometimes press the wrong buttons, I ended up folding AA pre flop more than once, and sometimes I raise with a crap hand when I want to fold.
It did happen as a lucky huge mistake one time, when I was on the bubble, and someone made an all in, and I wanted to fold and press the call button... I had T6 and went against AKs. I won with a pair of TT lol, and double up. Entered in a comfortable spot for the final table and ended up winning $200 first prize. The game would be a lot different with that fold, since I would continue to struggle after I reached the final table, since I could not apply the same pressure I was allowed, after winning that hand.

Well I have one those YOLO (you only live once) moments where I was somewhat confident that I'll win, unfortunately I did not and lost 0.1BTC on a single bet in magicaldice when they we're still new.

Worst betting I have ever made is on sportsbetting , last February I bet on soccer.
The match between Barcelona against Malaga , I make live betting on first 5 minutes Barcelona to win worth 0.25, and 2minutes after my bet confirmed Barcelona conceded shit. Watch the game and make another live bet after second half. I bet on draw worth 0.14 to cover if Barcelona can't win.
Sadly final score was 0-1 for malaga. What a shitty day I lost 0.5 in single match.

worst mistake happened with me in a dice site , someone in chat was asking me about the chance of busting his bankroll betting on X6
so I entered his base bet in my screen first , and then calculated the odds for him
but unfortunately I forgot to reset the auto bet settings and turned the auto bet on  , so I ended busting 0.2 in 6 bets  ;D

My worst mistake was using marintangle auto roll bot for dice, but I accidentally had it at x100 (I thought they used %)
Lost it all very quickly. (Roughly 10$ lost total) This was big for me though, since I was new in bitcoin.
Also another time in satoshimines when I yoloed my entire balance (around 1$) on 1 mine and lost it on my first click.

I did a supposedly safe martingale. You know, "It works great until it doesn't".
I would always make 5 tokens easily, then that time it was like 5,10,20,40,...  I knew I screwed myself when I was about to do a 640 bet. And woop, there I was. 1k$ gone with the wind.

This is the most common thing that is always happened on dice site ; :D. I am doing the same thing lately and I relaly busted it. Last time I busted around 0.1 for wrong strategy because I just too sleepy and put wrong base bet and autoroll it suddenly busted before I know it. The second time is almost the same with you and busted 0.1 so total lose is 0.2

In freebitco.in auto betting, there is a default option for alternate which is the other option for high or low. I forget to change it into high. Because with my previous testing of auto betting, high is the only working option to grow my profits. After my 80k satoshi vanished I realized that I forget to change into high.

Its your lucky day. Very rare to happen and I doubt that you can do that again. I did made same mistake when I was learning the dice game and surely it really was a mistake.
I have countless mistake on dice especially when using the auto betting. I have never won a really big amount and so I figured its not the kind of game that will give me a win.

My worst mistake when I made the parlay. some of my friends feel doubt to team my choice, but because my feeling said that team will win, so I put that team in my parlay. so that I lose one team of my parlay and almost I get 2 BTC :(

Best mistake I made when place a bet on sports bayern munich vs dortmund I misclicked between under 5.5 goals and over 5.5 goals.
I should place on under 5.5 goals with low odds , but it's placed on over 5.5 goals @6 . damn I wasted my 100 mbtc. But Fortunately the match ended 5-1 for Bayern Munich and I have my luck to collect 0.6 btc  ;D

I have had quite a few bad mistakes but nothing that would really be noteworthy. I do however have a pretty nice "mistake" story. I went to play on BitDice and swapped myself like 5 LTC, also had around 0.7 BTC. I thought i had swapped the currency to LTC, made 4 bets on 50% and won 3/4. When i looked at the loosing bet i realized i was betting BTC. It ended well tho as i won the 3 bets and got 1.5BTC in profit.
That was pretty fun! But i always triple check now.

The worst one was not once but made more often.
Not knowing when to stop.

Long time ago when I was playing on a dice site, I was planning to do one last 2x yolo bet before withdrawing, but then accidentally made a double click. The first bet won and the second bet lost. I was unhappy since I should have won it if it was just a single click, and so I made my third bet and lost it.

This happened with me once when I bet on sports for the first time. I was quite new and I just put a small bet of 0.05 BTC and I won the bet which gave me double the amount I invested. After that I got confidence to play more sports but lost a lot as my teams ended up losing.

Fortunately, I can't say that I made a mistake or overt error. I always double check my bets and all options before I start the fun.
I am betting only the right amount of btc. And I don't consider failed sport bets or lost dice rolls to be mistakes. They are just the part of the game.

unfortunately i have made a lot of betting mistakes with bitcoins and i have never been that lucky for it turning out to make me some profit,i think the worst mistake was when i sent to luckyb.it blue 0.1 bitcoin instead of 0.01 and the bet landed on 0.2x so i got back only 0.02 bitcoin

You're lucky to win such a big amount from your mistake. Unfortunately, my mistakes have always proved to be my loss. I bet my entire balance of 0.1 BTC with 50% (which was set by default) while playing dice and before I wanted to change it to 98%, it rolled and I lost my balance in few seconds. It was a rela bad move by me.

Sometimes people win by playing bad and they won because of luck and sometimes when we lose we take it as our mistake.Any way whenever we do make bad bet its because of greedy.

Sometimes i can't control my mind.Few days ago i went all in with what i had and the winning chance was less than 10% i think it was the bad move or mistaken by me.Because if i didn't make that mistake i would have more what i have now.Gambling is the thing i am unable to control my self from it right now :(

For me it was during the Fed decision to raise interest rates 2 weeks ago. I was betting that the dollar would rally in the next few days and it didn't. Apparently it was overbought and lead to a correction.

My worst and best mistake was after playing 8 hours on a 50$ rebuy poker tourny I found myself on the final table with just 4 of us left from a field of around 600 and I was small stacked fighting away.

I come to hold 73 of spades and 3 bet the nackers of the initial raiser, he flat calls and the flop 4s 6s Ad. Chips go in and he has AAA I hit 5s for a straight flush and dominate the rest of the game winning over 5k.

If I never entered that hand I would have leeked my chips until having to shove with random hand. I believe because I done what I done was the only reason I won the tourny.

Once i decided to play on a site where you bet on two lady's , and the one with bigger pot wins (similar to biggest shark wins game), anyways the
site was very badly managed, and when i tried to withdraw, they held my deposit until i turned heaven earth to get it back. I thought it was lost for sure,
but i got my 0.65+ btc back in the end, but it took me two or three weeks to do so. Never again will i do such a thing again.

I used to like chasing my loss and once lost all my balance on a dice site. I felt frustrated and deposited all my bitcoin from my personal wallet and in the end got a net profit for the day. This is the best mistake I have made in gambling, not because the end result was good, but because I realized I was starting to lose control and only gambled for fun since then.

A few years ago I was in a Portland Oregon poker room, running really good and get deep into multitable tournament. Sitting next to the dealer, I look down the pocket aces. It came my turn to bed so I looked in my hand off my cards, crab chips and threw them in the pot. Before my hand to get back over my cards, the dealer quickly grab them and mucked them. That particular poker room they were very strict on the card protectors. So I got my cards mucked, chips stayed in the pot and I lost a tournament in a few more hands. Thanks dealer.

Like so many people I am not sure when to stop, so i keep on playing.
Then you try to get back your losings and end up losing over double of you initial losings.
It's not nice at all sometimes.

I think the worst or best mistake that i made before i think 3 months ago that i bought lotto ticket
its nearly to become a millionaire on that time because 6 digit lotto ticket has a jackpot prize around 3 million
but i only got 5 exact digit and i got wrong in the last number i have to choose 54 but the exact last number is 56.
That is the best betting mistake that i made but i dont regret besides im happy because even i got only 5 exact digit
