True to some extent, some asian whales gamble for truly the pleasure and if they come back with anything thats a plus to their trip.

I do find some gambling sites notably fun, including bitvegas and champion games like bitarena

I once heard a casino executive call casino gambling 'entertainment with a unique billing system'. Agree with that as long as you stay in control.

I don't like losing money, so rarely gamble. When i do, I risk very small amounts and keep a strict loss limit.

just-dice takes fun to a new level, be on the house side - basically a crowd funded casino. One of a kind.

Yeah, I lost half a bitcoin there.
Let me tell you, I don't really like what bitcoin has done to me. I'm not yet of legal gambling age, and bitcoin has let me gamble, and it's not a good thing. I've lost a lot of coins through gambling.

Well how old are you, and how did you get access to BTC if you are underage? I know it is possible just want to know how you did it.

I'd prefer not to give away how old I am, but I am in highschool, and I get the coins just from promotions, rewards for doing things, etc. I have a lot of time on my hands during summer.

It may have been worse had you won, thats when people get really hooked.

On the plus side, you've learned a very valuable lesson about yourself and human psychology in general. I think you are a coder? Perhaps you can incorporate the triggers which caused you to keep betting into a program or game that helps people improve their lives?

That's the thing, i've won some too, so i've lost multiple bitcoins multiple times. I'm not a coder, but I aspire to be one. I wish I could find someone to take me under their wing lol.

Intermittent reinforcement seems to be the most powerful.
