Bitcoin Forum

All started when i deposit $300 today and start with small best $50 $60 etc
I always play for %50-60% chance. i had nice luck and turned it into $500 .thenI was thinking I'm  unbeatable and bet %70 chance on $500
and made around $840

Then i was planning to do the last bet and bet and I bet %70 on my $840 balance and lost everything. :/

After i was in real down but i was still positive cause i had $1200 on my Bitcoin wallet.

I wanted to make big profit and get back all the lost and never play again.

 and did it %50 chance on $1200 balance and lost everything :/

what a shitty die i want to die :/

Phew buddy. That's a pretty awful Christmas story and I'm sad to hear it.

Just FYI, $50 isn't a "small bet." 100 satoshis is a small bet.

I would definitely place you in the "high roller" category, though I know not everybody feels the same.

Sounds like you're addicted to the thrill, may want to lay off it for a while. By your descriptions of things I'd say its probably not the end of the road for you. So keep your chin up.

And consider taking up drinking, its far less expensive!

When I first read your topic I was assuming this was going to be another lost deposit or frozen withdraw.

However, it doesn't look like PD did anything wrong. You just took a gamble, at first you won alot , and then you lost alot.

This is why its called gambling because there is a risk to win big or lose big.

Sorry for your losses, next time try and bet less or take profit from time to time.

Good luck

This is gambling,this why people saying you need to be aware while gambling,this is why people saying you need to control your greed.

If not then stories like this will happen,you might have moved with that $500 profit.

Sorry about your losses but you need to embrace that and learn from your experience. Don't be too greedy when you are winning and don't be too confident that you'll never loss once you started to have a winning streak.

Set aside percentage of your profit so you can still keep on moving with the excess profit you made. And once those excess lost, you need to get out of it and take out your profits so you can sit and relax thinking on how much you made. Don't regret that you've lost some of those profits, what's important is you made profit + capital's back.

That's why you must set up a strategy and calm down once you win, and put your profit target. Greed is always upon you once you win and keep in mind that gambling is not money multiplier. If you win big you're just wanted to bet more especially if you don't have any profit target

Since the topic is not related to a gambling website or promoting yours, better to move this to the Gambling Discussion board. Reported to the moderator though.

Pretty much common story. These are the common metal state of a gambler until they lose everything.

Mistake one: You should have stop for the day once you won 500$. You had $200 nice profit.

Mistake two: You should have stop for the day when you made $840 from that first mistake. Your total profit was $540!

Mistake three: You should have stop betting for the day when you lost all. You could have a lose of $300 only.


This is the result of your third mistake. All together you lost $1500.

My suggestion: Do not chase the lose. Stop betting right(!) now unless you do it for fun. If you chase the money you lost then some day you will discover that you have literally nothing left.

Bookies always win. For them this is a business and no one start a business to count lose.

This is really sorry state of your and I am sure such thing would happen to many here who gamble for money. Also greed is something if you cannot control you would end up losing the money rather than making the money and this is what exactly has happened to you as well. Now forget about the lost amount and work on something else so that you are no more upset with this situation.

I'm sorry you lost that much in one day, but judging from your post I hope that it wasn't all your money. As @nutildah has pointed out, $50 is not a small bet(for me it definitely isn't), so if you call it small maybe for you it is, and you actually can afford losing $1,200 once in a while.(?) Anyway, for the future, what you was doing in the end is called "chasing your losses", and it is not recommended to do this, because usually it just leads to bigger losses.

Greed happens to most gamblers, but let this be a valuable lesson: don't gamble what you can't afford to lose.

Besides that, why didn't you play the same way like you started with the $300? All you needed to recover to break even was that $300, because the rest you "lost" was profit.

In the end you didn't lose $2000, but $1500, because greed caught you and you tried to recover more than you actually lost.

I feel sorry for you buddy but thats how gambling works exactly specially in a luck based games where the house always win as most people say. Chasing losses is not a very good idea, it happened to me few times and all of those times it ended me losing big part of my saved money

Tough luck man, shame it started so well, but you pushed your luck too much with higher and higher risk.
If you would have won, you would have been so happy maybe you wouldn't even bother to share the story.
If 1200-1500$ are too big amounts to lose, next time keep it at smaller amounts and be more careful.

I wish you more luck next year. And I give you an advice: don't chase the recovery of that money, instead try to play as usual, else you may continue to face bad surprises.

People who want to make a quick buck through gambling rarely do achieve their goal. The problem is because dice are computer controlled games and you are playing a computer controlled game who in the end is programmed to make the casino house win and not the player.

This I want to die feeling will go away within three days at maximum.

Just another story of greedy people who want to make quick money but ended with losing all they have on their wallet. I'm so surprised to see this story again and again in this gambling history although they are so many other examples of similar condition. People should learn from other's experiences as well, not only winning experiences but also losing experiences.

OP should learn from this bad experienced, there's nothing to expect when you can't control your emotions, you will keep suffering from the same problem, there's a lots of same stories back then and I do have my own version of it, but I've already learn from it and workout for my own benefits, losing is so stressful and hard to overcome right away, OP needs to keep himself busy and stay away for awhile from his device or else he will just keep trying to win it back from time to time.

I'm sorry to hear that.
Probably, if I was you, I would have withdrawn my initial deposited amount, which in your case was $300, when I had reached a grand total of $840. Or, if I would become greedy too, since I'm a human like you and it is in our nature that when we have some, we want more, so if I would bet and lose the $840 grand total and had to deposit my remaining balance for the recovery, I would play it a little bit safe, maybe bet all with 90% winning chances which would still generate $120 per winning bet for me since my bidding capital is $1200 and 1.1x of $1200 = $120. Once I would recover what I lost from my own money, beside the profits, I would come back to the normal betting.
Though I know that gambling is pure risk and there are chances of losing even if you bet with 99% winning chances, but sometimes you need to at least lessen the risk and try to recover your loss calmly rather than being in a hurry.

In my opinion you was luck but your greedy nature turn you to bad luck. Sorry for your loss but we can't do anything for you. At least you should withdrawal your capital once you are on profit. But your intention was to be rich a night which is the reason of your loss. Same as on your real life, much greedy through us to much loss. Especially on online gambling you should always take care of your capital. You won three times it does not mean you will win always. You should take a little break to get fresh breath before play again and again. However whatever gone it will never back. Don't be hopeless and don't be much greedy. Try again and again until your success.   

Agree, greedy people will have difficulty controlling their emotions. In gambling, the most important thing is to control your emotions as best you can so that greed does not overtake you, if greed has mastered you then you will only receive a very bitter loss. At least if you are able to control emotions well, then even if you are not lucky, then you will realize to stop and try on another occasion.

I totally feel you. This is what I did the first time I did gamble in a dice game. I started with little money and luckily, as you did, I was winning in the beginning. I managed to reach my deposit x400 playing 50%-50% over under in dice. I thought that this would be my opportunity to be rich!
But after rolling and rolling I started losing and I couldn't believe that I am losing. So, I deposited more money to cover my losses but guess what... I lost again.

This was a great lesson for me and now I gamble in a more prudent way with little money. You will see that when you will work to get the amount of money that you already lost. They come hard but they are leaving easy and fast.

I think the OP tried to push his luck too far after I read his story, he should have stop himself from playing on the site once he managed to earn a few hundred dollars of profit, but I guess the desire to win more money from gambling have caused him to keep on playing, and he even deposit more money to try and recover his losses but it ends up in a bad way and he have lost everything, this shows that it is never a good idea for players to start chasing losses in gambling as there is a high chance to lose more money away to the casino.

First sorry for your loss

Indeed this isn't a small bet ;)

This is the mistake made by every gambler so far sadly...

Barely everyone experienced the same feeling so don't worry and try to recover your loss with less risky ways.

That's what happens when you bet impulsively and go all in without hesitation. Also $50 - $60 per bet is already 20% of your bankroll that's more of a medium - large sized bet than a small one tbh. SFYL

Don't feel bad, losing a lot of money isn't the worst thing in the world. A lot of gamblers have been there and did the same mistake. You'll always have time to recover and eventually move on from the situation.

I think with that much capital you know there is a possibility of losing in any game. well there is always learning and experience in taking action. I also felt the same way. gambling really gives a different sensation and when you succeed you definitely want to try again and until the time you have to know when to stop and be wise.

Just take it as something you can learn from and move on. I'm sure all of us here have missed out on making a massive profit one way or another in cryptocurrency (I for one have), but we're still here and we're all still making money through crypto, even in this bear market. I'd suggest taking a break from gambling if possible, but there's not much else you can do besides moving on from this. PrimeDice's working and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong here- you just happened to lose.

Ok. You made profit, you got greedy and wanted to make more profit. So you increase win chance and go all in. You lost it all. Alright, so this was your limit. You lost, you should have stopped and waited for a while. Maybe come back the next day. But, instead you chose to chase your losses and thus ended up losing more. This is why people keeps on suggesting others not to chase their loss. You just get frustrated and take wrong decisions that makes you lose more. Hope you learn from this and never repeat what you did.

I really like your word. "Move on " same like what i feel when im losing a lot of money and there is anything to do expect just accept it as learning for what i did and move on . and if it feels not right to continue you can stop and still do anything more right to earn money ;)

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sure that everyone here have been in the same situation but I wouldn't go that far though. Just learn your lesson from it, and play another day. I've been in 3 successive losses myself, I could have stop because I already won, but I continue until I lost everything. It's not the end of the world as they say, to just man up and try not to be greedy next time.

As of now, you should reflect all of the results and accept it. As it is your choice that you have made even if you do know that you may lose but you still wish to continue because you have a feeling that you may not lose it this time but you are wrong. Everything could flip over if you do not control yourself, even if you think you are lucky. Just learn from your mistake this time and never do it again in the future.

This is not new story of loosing investment in dice gambling, when ever a gambler starts in small invest and bets low first will win a lot with any variations but when gambler start to think and bet and start to lose some bets on same variations, he thinks he can beat the house edge and invest more and then looses all his investment. One thing you should know that in dice or other casino gambling just bet for some bets and what ever the result just leave for the day. If you make wins that is good if not then also it is good and leave for next day with fresh mind.

OP won 10x + of the low invested and then when greedy stuck he lost all.

Curious here is that in reality you yourself knew you would lost, you just imagined yourself unbeatable which you weren't. How did this idea came to you? When you were in profit and said, let's do last bet, why didn't stop here? I amn't here to blame you for your action and add more stress but I won't say any consolatory words. Always do things for fun, not for worsening your nervous.

That might be the best point to take forward, keep the bets relative to income, some people wipe their brow with fiftys  ;D.    At some point everyone reaches a point where the amount gambled is larger then your daily wage, weekly take home, monthly pay packet.   Some people are so lucky or have so much guile as to get to a point they are into betting more then their car or their house.    All I'd suggest is never go a day where you bet more then you earnt in a week or a week where you've bet or risked more then a months worth and so on.    To stay balanced, if you stop take your earnings and get some profit back you are genuinely richer at that point and come back having evened everything out, paid some bills and so on.

Till a player moves some winnings into a more boring area like paying off a big bill, the days bet pays off the monthly rent for example (which is boring but also every day for that month you are richer) then the win is also a potential loss.   Most of us not just OP dont have the perfect discipline to not keep betting to regain a loss, but if you walk away no matter what after hitting a high level you will leave at the top not the bottom.   It sucks to lose and have to walk home, leave when you pockets full and you can ride home drinking champagne in the back still which is the real high.

  Money only good when time taken to enjoy its benefits not just the rush of the win I guess  8)

Oh I am really sorry for you I hope that you will recover that money somehow.This is my main reason why dont risk more then 10% from my month profit on gambling.Do not gamble with money which you cant afford to lose and then even if you lose you will not be sad too much.

First of all, you can't say that $50 - $60 bets are small, moreover, your first deposit is only $300 so its like 20% of your total money, I never bet more than 10% of my current money, but I guess everyone have their own "gambling rule", however, $50 is not a small amount in betting. And then, you forget the first rule of betting, never get greedy, in everything that relies on speculation greed is the worst enemy, and the first loss after your greed lead you to be tilted and become emotional, I don't think it can be worse, but I hope you learn your mistake.

Right , never bet which you are not ready to loose . I always bet with my spare money .
We are bound to bust now or sometime later but how much we loose is directly dependent on us.

Youre right mate,$50 isnt a small bet for a single roll so this means OP is a galant gambler..

But what i dont like here is the blaming part in which I believe caused by His stupidity and being greedy ..

He was winning at first and got multiple wins and yet he continued to play.but when he losses everything now attempting to die?get lost mate you are not belong here because a gambler must have a guts and balls to accept what would happen to his actions

This scenarios are pretty common when people tends to chase up their losses and do regret on the end when they lost everything.
This is gambling dude and anytime your entire balance would be wiped in an instant.This is why its important to get out when you do saw
that you are already profiting but basing on what you have done, you just continue and got greedy and desperate.

It might also would have been better to put all his $2000 on an altcoin hehehe. Most of them are on a very low discount and might easily give him a 10x return if he is patient enough hehehe.

It is your best luck ever because you can turn your money to $500 so it increases to $840.


But you are too greedy, and you hope you can make another big winning. You forget in that time, your luck only comes once, and after you get a big win, you must stop the game, don't ever think about the next chance to get the big win.

You now know gambling games makes you lost everything, and it is an important lesson for you. From this lesson, I hope you can know your limit and don't make the same mistake.

It's just an ordinary day for every gambler, you attitude is what makes you loss all your money.
You go all in thinking the odds is gonna give you a win, but you forget it's just a chances, even if you are taking the 99% win rate, you'll never win all the time.

Time to relax now, don't die yet, because it would not change anything, gambling sites will still continue to exist, what you need to do is learn from your experience, so the next time you gamble, you are gonna enjoy what you are doing, regardless of the outcome.

There is no need of you go into gambling or betting if you know you will be afraid of losing.  Betting is a very risky venture and there is no need of you starting it if you not ready for any outcome because it is base on luck and not your intelligence or skills.  Remember that investors will lose and make money and since your has gone worst there is no need of you die or commit suicide.

Yes, I am sure he can make a lot of money from the altcoin. He can get various coins with the low price, and he also has a chance to sell when it is rising. But it's already happening, and he cannot turn back to get his money. Let's face it and remind in your mind that playing gambling is too dangerous.

Yes,when someone thinks that they can win continuously in gambling then they will get this kind of feeling about suicide when they are in loss.

I am never afraid to lose my money since I know how to earn money again,losing money is not a big thing when you know how to do it.

the most common things that make a person addicted to gambling are:

1- don't be satisfied with the small gain and try to earn more in short times.
2- don't accept losing part of your money and try to
recover your lost even playing larger amount than your initial losses.

the best thing OP should have done was to withdraw his original deposite after making a gain of almost 120% and play with profit without risk of losing. but luck took another course and did that OP lose all his money.

You want to die? With just money you want to kill yourself? That's not the answer to any problem we have encountered. Yes it's devastating to loss that amount but at least you have learned your lesson with regards to gambling, that you will never always win and you have to do another strategy to win.

I would highly suggest seeking professional help for your gambling addiction.
You have a real problem when you spend that amount of money and can't control yourself.

Casual gamblers don't spend more than they're willing to lose, so you don't fit into that category any more.

Here's some information about gambling addiction, I really suggest taking a look:

Please get some help, so you can avoid doing the same in the future.

You may advice anything easily but when you are gambling and feeling the heat of uncertainty, definitely you cannot take the decision of stopping after some profits. I'm not shocked on seeing what OP has done as this will be the result when a gambler is going without any control on their emotions.

I am just worrying how many people are going to fall like this due to gambling and its dangers. There should be some initiative for this so that gamblers will not losing like this.

This is the result when you continue to chase what you have loss and if you don’t know how to control yourself. Gambling works on this way, you will win in first but in the long run your money will slowly gone until you lose everything. We should know when to stop in gambling, it doesn’t mean that you win some, you will win everything.

Been there done that sir,you cant really stop unless you make a serious goal
Even when you make a serious goal you need to withdraw it to fiat so you dont gamble it
And have a little to play with

The problem is always the last bet it always losses

But you will recover soon like all of us do :)

Well, because it is based on luck and not intelligent skills this is why so many people are into it. If gambling was about to study a lot and learn things and develop skills then none would ever play. This is why people are lazy to do so. I agree that he shouldn't bet so much that he couldn't afford. Committing suicide or dying would not make things better. OP should try to find support and fight against his addiction otherwise there is a high possibility to do it again.

I don't understand what people are thinking while gambling. I mean of course you would lose your money gambling, that is what casinos are for. They are not there so they could give away free money to everyone, do you really think people start a new casino so they could share their wealth with you, do you really think that is how casinos work ? They are there to make money and the most legal way of getting free money from people.

They literally tell you that they will take your money, there is a house edge on every single game and they make profits on that house edge all the time and everyone knows about this but yet again everyone gambles knowing about the house edge but somehow some people think "not me, I am lucky" or something and go against the house edge thinking they can beat it. Math will never be wrong and you will always lose. House always wins, don't forget about that.

Oh well, hear it from one of the expert, recovering from this mismanage decisions can be carried away by dedications to accept the fact, you can't hold this stressful failure, it's just money and what is important, you still have your life to live and you can correct those mistakes you just need to move on and try harder to keep it away from your mind, keep yourself busy try to catch up with your love ones or with your friends.

Hey there mate, i'm really sorry for your lost and as bitcoin talk folks have said, it's a quite bad event happening this time of the year.
Just wanted to say that even me, if i were in your position i'd want to do the same but turning 300 usd into 800 is quite good, the case isn't about feeling the joy and trying to collect more.. nope, you should really consider changing your behaviour because that "greed" is the thing taking you down.
Consider taking less profits and spending them somewhere before gaming for a second profit.. don't let greed controle your brain.

Man, I know how's that fell, when you're desperate and loss.
But man, I must remind you that you're already aware the risk of gambling , the loss probability is higher than winning so just brace yourself and take it as a man !

~This may the God's sign to stop gambling

this is not an advice for op or any other one else, I also lived what op has subited but with more higher amount than what mentioned in this topic and i also know that it's so hard to control emotion when feeling of win take all our brain.

I just want it to be a lesson for other people who will have the chance to read this topic and don't make the same mistakes that others have done before, and I'm pretty sure that  this is the only reason why op shared his experience with us.

Hey I'm feeling sorry for your loss, but I feel it's your greed to be blamed you were way ahead an you should have quit. This is a common mistake we gamblers make after loosing, we put in more funds to recover but we end up loosing that too. I know this is hard for you, but don't give up now, give yourself some time and figure everything out and remember only gamble what you can afford to loose never more than that.

Many people would fall if they cannot control their emotions, and many of them will lose money on gambling games. But it will not happen to all gamblers especially if they know that playing gambling is only gives a bad effect to their money because they will lose more and more money. The initiative tp solve the problem should come from the gamblers itself, and if they don't do anything, then they need to prepare to get lost much money.

Typical beginner mistake.

Starting small, winning a little, losing and chasing your losses by making bigger deposits, typical path to bankrupt.

Your biggest mistake here was to take some money from your Bitcoin assets and deposit with it. Anyway there should be a clear separation between fun and addiction, this is the first step to addiction. Try to forget about it and be wiser next time.

Yes, nothing new. We have heard this kind of stories more than hundred times within this forum still I wonder why new gamblers are not ready to learn some lessons from others experience but still risking their hard earned money and their life too.

You are suggesting him to try next time after learning some lessons from his own mistakes. But, I like to suggest him to stay away from gambling hereafter. At least, he will find a decent life outside the gambling which will be definitely happier than what he could get from gambling.

Don't think about it too much. People make mistakes and those are the things that help us grow in the end. It's not a good thing to say things that you want to die just because of a mistake. Maybe the best thing to do is move forward and move on. The important thing is you need to make sure that you learned from it, not repeating it.

Anyway, I have somewhat a similar experience towards that. I have won a large amount in a contest in BitVest and I was really luck towards it and I had made similar bets. In the end, I have seen that the feeling of winning makes you feel invincible and you want to continue but that is also what destroys you.

We shouldn't be greedy, we all should know that.

That’s right, don’t focus so much on what you have done because there’s always an opportunty to regain that loss, and ending your life is not a good idea. Learning from this painful experience can make you a better person in the future. Give yourself a time to recover, don’t be greedy again and stop your gambling activities for now.

Great advice, better to go far away from casinos for you to have enough time for yourself and rebuild yourself as I can see you are broke right now. If you can’t afford to lose that money why gamble at all? This is the risk of gambling without proper preparations. You should learn to control yourself, because if you continue to gamble with greed and weak emotion, you might lose more money.

Yes, lack of control over our gambling activities will obviously lead to unexpected losses at the end. I have seen that a lot of gamblers have already shared this kind of losses with major gambling sites still it seems no new gamblers are ready to learn them but they want to try their own way of gambling to experience the same level of losses.

Then what is the use of sharing all our experience to this community ? This sections of this forum has many good lesson for new gamblers, but most of the newcomers are simply ignoring all those.

This forum is a great source of learning but newbies are just too busy to join bounty camapaign, they only want to earn money and not to learn more about cryptocurrency.

OP lost a lot of money for me, and I can’t even afford to that so I understand the stress that you have now but its ok, you can recover if you will continue to live and fight for your dreams, giving up is not an option.

Leaving gambling after big losses will not be easier for any gambler because you will never forget your losses and you will keep trying to recover at any cost. I mean to say this is the basic mentality of most gamblers but I am also like to suggest OP to stay away from gambling to find better life rather than struggling with gambling.  Gambling is good when you will be playing for free of cost. Otherwise you will be enforced to continue with it for recovering your losses infinitely.

You got 300$ and you bet with 50$, that is a very huge bet compare to your capital, and its really dangerous to gambling without set any stop limit and cant control yourself, and we already heard this kind of things repeatedly, but luckily you don't have any mindset to try win back your lost after that 2000$

I think this is an emotion that is often experienced by many gambling players, and I've also experienced this. many people experience win at the beginning and then when they continue, in the end they will lose, and every player will have an instinct to recover their losses, but instead they lose more. that's the wheel in a gambling system dude?

Imagine if you would have won that $1200 bet :) You'd still be greedy and would have even lost more. The conclusion is, don't play with what you can't afford to lose. You made around $840 which is a lot of money. Could have just taken a break or cashed out $500 at least.

Buy yourself an expensive necklace on every win until you look like MR T. and then if you start to lose you can walk away and still be able to pay the bills with your old winnings.   If the money is on the table then its not going to last forever, just the lesson we all have to learn I guess.   If i win on a coin flip and keep winning, I know the odds are getting smaller and smaller each time that it'll keep going that way so after 5 flips my odds of another 50/50 flip going my way consecutively will be below 4%

https://mene.com/
Here is a good website for very liquid jewellery for gamblers who gain alot and want to spend and save at same time, not sure if they accept crypto for payment but they might.   I recommend it because it can also be cashed out and the company will buy it back pretty, obviously check this but imo its a smart idea for bling bling high rollers  8)

I agree, props to the OP for not thinking that way! All of us lose sometimes and no one can't avoid that. What we can avoid is chasing our losses, although it's not that easy to do, especially when you have that feeling that you will necessarily win next time. So I think OP did the right thing when he decided to write his story on this forum instead of depositing more and trying to win the lost money back.

People realize only after losing the money and till then everything is lost for them. They really need to be mature enough to take the decision in gambling as it is very  easy to lose money and not everyone is rich so that they can afford to lose the money like this. Hope people will learn their lessons and avoid such stuff.

You must accept your losses otherwise you should not have gamble at all. It is always good to gamble only what you are afford to lose. Otherwise, you will start chasing your losses which will be leading to further losses. This is how only gambling will be working and it will never let you recover your losses. Yes, there will be no escape is possible one entered into gambling. Accept your losses otherwise lose more including your life too.

I agree here. Gambling must be a place where we never find an end for our struggling. But, people are easily bypassing those struggle when they are gambling for free of cost like you have mentioned. I'm not sure how they are finding the real excitement of gambling when they are not spending anything and not expecting anything from gambling but that must be the right way of avoiding gambling problems, I agree.

Correct, all of his minds is chasing what he had a loss and indeed, that is sounds like greedy. He never thinks that he under on his strong emotion which is dragging down his fund and lost everything because of chasing his loss which is not good. So, here is my advice if you want to come back into gambling, always set an amount that you can afford on your own pocket. If you had a loss, then stop and come back again on tomorrow to refresh your mind.

Cheer up dude, don't think of it as the end for you, there is always hope and I think that with the amount of money that you lost I believe that you can regain all that and be much more smarter in the next time, and it doesn't matter if he is still chasing his loss, this is completely normal, the problem that you need to face here is moving on with that loss, regain yourself and make a comeback.

I think you've got me wrong, jhongzjhong. I wasn't blaming the OP because I behave in the same way myself sometimes. We all have our weaknesses, and we try to chase our losses in some cases although we know well that that's definitely not a right thing to do. We can't be perfect all the time, but what is very important is to have the strength to stop doing the wrong things over and over again (chasing our losses in this case). And OP has done a good job here because he has decided to stop eventually.

2000$ is not a less amount and losing it in a day is a big loss. Those who are saying that it is a normal loss in gambling and should move on, might not feel the same pain which the loser has felt during the loss. This might keep him in depression for few days as it is something which cannot be forgotten in a matter of days.

If someone lost 2000$ in a single game then its his fault and you cannot say that it is due to the gambling. You cannot blame gambling for this loss. People who are playing gambling for years already know how much to invest in each turn and pay safely.

This is just greediness due to which people lose such a big amount at a single shot. People would learn how to manage funds while doing gambling.

Its because of greed that makes them more aggresive when it comes to chasing their loses. Its hurt that you just realize your mistake after losing the money, only if you know how to control yourself this kind of situation can be prevented. Well, this is not new in gambling and many gambler have the same stories with a much larger money.

greed is good all the time because greed is the only one that can give us a  guts to keep going .  tell me , how can you possibly get rich if you are only sticking on your comfort zone  ? thats exactly what the op had done but unfortunately he didnt succeeded because his luck got run out  .   luck is also needed aside from greed  .

@op why dont you try other gambling sites ? maybe you arent lucky enough on primedice  .   have  you check out my sig ?  bitvest offers a wide variety of games , specifically casino games  .    they are more fun and enjoyable than a plain dice game

I'm suggesting everyone to not judge the op because of his losses. He might be a newbie but he deserve to not to be judge.

The depressing thing is to lose a sum that was originally a Bitcoin asset, because he withdrew from his Bitcoin wallet. Otherwise, 2000 USD is not too much of a big deal in the long term. I know people who have lost much more than that (someone on a betting forum ackowledging to me that he had lost 100,000 USD in 5 years since he started betting. Unless the OP comes from a very poor country, he will get over it. I am sure it was just a part of his savings.
Most important is not to do the same mistake twice.

I don't think that we're judging him, on the contrary others are very helpful by giving him advises. What do you expect us to say? Good job? It's better to tell him the facts, what went wrong so that lessons can be learn. And if ever he gambles and be in the same situation then we hope that all the advise we have given remembered by the OP so that he won't get despair and frustrated again.

Money can find in any better ways but our life are much important than anything in this world, next time if you want to play gambling better to put set control how much amount ready to lose not to assume to got huge earnings just play for having fun not to play to got huge earning to avoid lot of loses, there's nothing can got quick earnings.

Whether he is newbie or an experienced gambler, a loss is a loss and specially a loss of 2000$ is not an ordinary thing. One thing is for sure that the OP must be rich who took such a big risk in gambling with a big amount.  Anyways I feel really bad hearing a loss of anyone.

I think we do not judge him because of his losses, but we can learn from his mistake, and we should not be greedy in gambling because it will ruin our life and lost everything we have like what he gets. It is an important lesson for us, and we can take something from this, and the best is if we can prevent the big loss, so we don't have to lose all the money.

We have all been to his position in the past. For someone $2000 is not a huge amount for someone else it is. Everyone has lost money in gambling and everyone has his own experience and advice to give to this person. I believe we all try to help each other in here, and don't judge someone for his losses. It is normal to lose but it is not normal to risk your life savings.

That's true, we have different level in gambling and for me, that amount is already huge, considering that I don't earn it easily.
So, although I still gamble, I am more careful not to spend beyond my limit. I would regret my whole life if I lose that big amount of money.
Losing is normal because most of us will experience that, we should not ashamed of that, if there is an advise we should listen because sometimes we make bad decision especially when we loss control. In gambling, we win or loss money in an instant, lucky we are if we are in the winning side.

It's good that way, because we are not going to spend money by learning from the experience of others.
Gambling house will stay, they are always here to entertain us and they don't care of our emotion, we have the money to gamble then we are very much welcome. So, in order to be safe, we should be in control in gambling as we will experience some mixed emotions.

Sad life but OP it is not meant for your today. Maybe you should come back and try your luck next time. Just want to say some sort of advise if you have been losing in the bet stop betting and call it a day. Then follow this idealogy definitely it will not hurt your wallet and probably you will have some gain.Controlling oneself emotions is the key because gambling is addictive. Do not let your emotions over flow with winning or losing because that is life in gambling.

Still depends on luck.In this case OP went for the final bet with all in but finally lost everything this can' be stopped when the want to stop from losing bets.It can be only possible to stop by having satisfied with the earnings what they made on bets.

Ehh don't feel bad, I know it may seem like a lot but $2000 is barely anything.  There are people that have lost millions gambling.  Michael Jordan, John Daly, Dana White, these guys have lost millions in a day before which makes your loss seem miniscule.  At least you gave it a shot anyways, you only live once so there is nothing wrong with taking a few risks.

Well, those are already millionaires so they can afford to lose money but if you are just an ordinary gambler, this loss means a lot to you. We should learn from this one, to make motivation for us not to give up and continue to work for us to achieve our goals. You only live once is the reason why people becomes more greedy, they simply believe on this one even the risk level is very high, i hope you should become more responsible and be wiser, don’t just take the risk if you can’t afford that.

The problem is, he is not like them. You are talking about super stars who has a lot of money lol. It’s just that greed has succumbed him and let him do it. It’s sad especially for him wanting to die. It may have been a lot for him but also it’s his fault for continuing to gamble even though he has already won a lot.

---

Maybe the fact that people tend to regret or feel bad when they already have something great and failing to recognize or be satisfied with their blessings. It's like the natural way of people, to be tempted and greedy. We need to adjust to having a better attitude with what we have.

I think you misunderstand the definition of greed. Greed is a very strong urge to get more of something, sometimes more than you really need. For example, if someone won $200 and continues to play to win more, that's greed. But if someone, who is poor, is working hard to become rich, that's not greed, because the person in question doesn't wish for more of something, he/she just wishes to have something.

Although trying to chase your losses is a very bad idea in gambling, that behavior can't be called greed in my opinion.

Still you can consider yourself lucky and rich man in spite of loss. If I had 100$ per day I would never gamble, simply some people bet to provide for living and some gamble just because they don't know what to do with money.

Is it small to you? I would be more than happier if someone paid me $50 for posting here for a week since you know the per capita here, lol.
Anyway, that's the addiction to betting which I don't prefer at all. You should play the so-called small bet.

Maybe he is a rich guy thats why 50 usd and above bets are way too small for him  but for us who arent rich , 50 usd is already big enough  .  loosing isnt bad because almost all of us who are playing a gamble do already experience it .  you just need to learn on how to manage your anger if ever you loose  because that drives us to to be not contented  .

Learning from the other will gives us more lesson, and if we can remember the lesson, I am sure we don't have to make the same mistake as him.



All of the gambling houses wants is only our money and how they can take all that money from the gamblers. We need to stay alert from this so we can save our money and not lose too much money in the gambling game and don't forget always to control your mind.

Yes, $50 earning per week is more than enough for myself too as per my country's per-capita.

When gamblers not effective with their fund management then this type of results are inevitable. Yes, we must set our base bet amount less than 1% of our bankroll. Because, we should not focus only on how much we are going to profit but we must look into lengthen the process of gambling so that we can ensure profits over the course of time. This is the core reason for why choosing base bet as small as possible is always recommended.

At the same time, I'm not sure OP would have got chances to avoid this much big losses when he opted for small bet also. Because, gambling is working that day it will never let you go away with profits. Small bet may ensure you will be having more rounds to try out your luck. But, your initial profits may get wiped out if you keep trying because luck may not favor until you quit for the day.

Small base also can give you numbers of times to try finding your luck and with much longer time frame you will be able to gained even a little if you have a good self control and manage yourself after gaining some  percentage as long as it is a profits better to quit and keep away for a while, else, if you continue and play like a greedy gambler you will suffer defeats and can burned your complete bankroll.

Anyone can suggest to quit at right time, but practically no one is following that on their own gambling. If a gambler is having self control, I believe they would have never gone back to gambling just due to their ability to control themselves. I mean to say self control and being frequent to gambling are completely controversy things to each other. Small base bet has nothing to do in securing your bankroll and maximizing your profits. If you choose it or not choosing it, will not be having any differences in your final result at the end of the day.

This alone sounds realistic from your side. Each and every gambler will be continuing because they will not be having control on their emotions. That is the basic nature of every human; yes, no one will prefer to stop a probably-profitable one.

This is an open discussing forum and people may state anything they like to share. We cannot do anything about that in particular. As far as I have seen in this topic, people are suggesting him what should not have been done so that he would not have lost his $2000.

I believe this will be helpful because at least for the next time he will not lose big. If that will be happening that is the real power of having open discussion like this. Some people may go for judging him but that is just a part of is open discussion and we should look for positive thing and we should not have any personal opinion about that.

On the other side of having this kind of discussion, I'm not seeing any changes in gambler's community because at least one or two people are sharing for every month this kind of losses, even there are a lot of such incidents have been shared before. I mean to say people are not ready to learn lessons from other gamblers incident but they want to try every time and then they learn on their own lessons then coming here with their sad stories. Do not know when these will be stopped :(.

Its like a year end experience with lesson mate. Dont be so sad because im sure you know that the possibility of losing is also high and the game doesnt always makes us win. I guess the universe tells you to end the year with unreasonable gambling and not being greedy about it. Learn to balance things specially in betting. Always think about what you are doing before you do it.

Also this lesson make us all understand that gambling is just for fun and entertain yourself and do not be greedy to continue gambling for money else can lose more money . Instead investing in crypto at this point of time will be more rewarding in future .

When you were thinking you're unbeatable then you had just one step a head to lost and greedy attitude still dominated from your stories that you're seems pushing your luck with more gamble after lost and if you stopped gamble when you won and keep it your money safety into your wallet then i think you will never lost deep

I call this a shitty bankroll management. depositing 300$ initially and then place 50-60$ bets. So hard to read that there are people playing on the edge and think they can make fortunes by betting. I say that gambling must stay fun. I deposited a couple 100 myself 2 months ago and I am still playing. But I only use 0.1 to max 0.5% of my bankroll in a single bet. I started with 250$ and at this moment I have 400$ and made about 200$ in withdrawals.

But most important I have lots of fun with my money and do not waste it in a matter of minutes.

Same I am doing with sports betting. Couple months ago I deposited 500$ worth of crypto on a gambling site and I place a massive amount of bets with stupid odds of 1.05 up to 1.25-1.3 on single games. I can't expect massive wins but I rather use some compounding strategy. I withdraw 50% of my profits and other 50% I add to my bankroll to increase my bets periodically

ATLeast now you learn that gambling is not suitable for all people.and specially greediness may kill you most of the time,just like now you wanna die

I hope you will never bet again.and may spend your money in a more deserving not in gambling

Thats how i see things here,greediness is what OPs attitude that brings him to losing this amount,if he can only handle hes feeling to cut the losses by stopping in the middle of the game.but instead he continues until all the capital is gone and now he wanna die for  own stupidity

OP was not online anymore for almost a week, seems like he completely quit :(

---

or did this, I hope not>
His experience is bad with gambling because he lacks the control, he got heated in the game and chase his loses.
Everyone should learn from this, it's not an easy feeling if you lose that big amount specially when that money is for other purpose.

Gambling requires some skills in order to win but with dice, you won't need that anymore, just stay discipline to last and enjoy every winning moment as in the long run, we will still loss. Been here in crypto for awhile, tried a lot of games bu enjoyed most of them, sometimes I loss but it does not make me so upset.

I hope he doesn't kill his self no matter how hard his problem. I wonder how he can get deeper into gambling that makes him losing much money. Before he played, he should know that gambling is a very dangerous and very risky and no one can survive in the gambling for a short time or long time. He can win bigger money in any second, but he could also lose everything in the next rolls.

This is some bad luck- but wanting to die is no joking matter.
The 1st thing I was did was check to see if OP had made any more posts, which he has done:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092928.msg49037493#msg49037493
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5091255.msg49050934#msg49050934

If losing this much amount of money will make you feel this depressed, it might be a time to stop gambling so much.

It's usually just a temporary sentiment, pretty normal when you can't believe you burned such a huge figure.

I felt pretty shit too after losing 1K in less than 5 minutes, but the next day everything was back to normal.

A life lesson with your lost from playing gambling, I hope you will not do a stupid actions to get into gambling and chase your loses.


I'm always caught up with this scenario, when I'm winning I'll make a last bet to make get more but suddenly it's a devastation. Yes, I feel you bro life sucks but don't end your life with a misery because of gambling.

Even though everyone suggest to be safe while gambling and do not invest all in one game but we do not listen until and unless we feel the same pain and loss. Experience is one thing which changes many people life's. You can guide people all life but they will not listen, but one bad experience will let them know that all those suggestions were right.

the habit of gamblers is that they are not aware of it. when they are in a condition of profit and win, they will feel like above the clouds and continue playing, without looking in front there will be a big mountain that blocks, if you continue to play then it will end in loss, right what you say that it is better to leave, and come back tomorrow

Sometimes if we started as lucky we thought every round would be the same as well and thats the blinded part if you experience how to win. You have to learn in a hard way to realize your mistake, gambling works that way, unpredicted.

If you gamble dont chase your loses, instead use that experience to be careful next time or change the way how you treat it. Move on and dont dwell in the past just stay positive.

We don't have luck everyday nor a disgraceful day,  may OP have luck at first but it won't stay any longer until he loss everything he have and so he lost his mind finally. Thinking how bad it is and it possible to happen in any of us. That is why,  when you are in gambling, just keep activate your mindset and never tend to lost it otherwise you'll be out of the game.

No reason to worry: Primedice + Stake scam get all your losses back for past 5 years! (https://game-protect.com/stake-scam/)

This story is kind of funny.. I do not believe it though..
If true, guess it will serve as  lessons to other gamblers. Once you win something tangible, run to continue the fight another day or try gambling with another account. . Some gambling sites may have been rig  to behave in that way.

The lesson here is that we should invest only the amount which we can afford to lose in gambling. Gambling is very uncertain game and I have seen many rich people becoming hand to mouth as they lost big in gambling just like the OP.
Similarly on the other hand, many poor people has changed their fortune by gaining big in gambling.

You should not allow it, you should have stopped in time because you had a good profit. your greed has pulled you away, and your next time will be more intelligent. You were not at ease with that decision. Why did not you think about profit, you watched how to get involved.

All wants to earn maximum money but once entered into this field we cannot get back very easily we need to make the previous idea for entering into that site while gambling we need to set the limitation it will help you from not get losses in that.

Welcome to the world of gambling, everyone losses eventually, gambling is not meant to make money, if you have a lucky day, just make the profit and get out fast and never wait any longer and risk everything, these things happen if you are new to dice, because it is really fun and thrilling and if luck is on your way you might win a lot but if you keep on continuing with it, eventually you luck runs out. I have seen people loosing hundreds of bitcoins in the past and that too after earning hundreds, they do not know when to stop and they keep on rolling until they loose everything. Take is as a lesson and have fun in dice sites rather than thinking about making a quick profit with your minimal balance. ;)

This may become a perfect chance for you to stop your addiction because as what i can read in your post that this becomes your burden from all of the mistakes you’ve made from gambling

I will never make this same stupidity and will never look for more winnings while i am in great losses,for other players here this will serve as an eye opener so they can escape from the misery gambling might bring to them

His addiction made him loss $2,000 in just one day.
It's very painful because that is a big amount, it should not be gambled knowing you will never have the edge.
If OP would have invested that, it might be good to buy coins now as it's all cheap, but he got so emotional and getting greedy.

So he pay for the price of his action.

I am sure that every gambler wants money from the gambling games. They don't think twice about the losses and keep playing without makes a limit for their money. Once they lose, they will think that their luck is not coming and it will come for the next game but suddenly, they got bigger lose, and their money is gone in the next second. We should always remember that if we are playing gambling, we cannot expect to make a win even for a small win and this is why the limitation will give you a chance to leave the gambling games.

Agreed with you. The main point is his greediness. He wanted to make big money within short times. A proverb goes, "Covet all, lose all." And that is what has happened with this guy. Another reason is addiction, in fact, he is addited to gambling and that is why he could not leave with a profit.

Without control, this will be the result.
You are greedy if you do not have a limit on your winning or limit on your losing, because either way you won't stop gambling.
Most of us wants a win but there are some who really cannot stand their loses and just give up,
instead they get aggressive resulting to a wrong decision making.

Once again, the greediness plays the part to attract people to continue the games and losing more money. We should give attention to the greediness so we can understand that we need to eliminate or control the greedy in the gambling games. The greediness and the addiction will collaborate to get more people to come into the gambling games, and it will keep whispering in their ear to follow the path to make money which can not always happen.

Greediness results to addiction, thinking that he can easily snatch money from the house makes him suffer for losing more of his money, a sorry mistake
of such player leading his aggressiveness to lose this huge amount in just a single day, need to take gambling issue seriously and learned from this experienced, there's lots of place where you can use that huge amount of money and not alone into the gambling activity.

That is why self-control and contentment is really a must when you are playing gambling. You have already noticed that you are lucky playing to play with small bets but because you wanted to earn a lot more money from it, you started increasing your bets and all of a sudden you lost all what you have already earned because you did not have that contentment of what you currently have in mind. All of that will not happen if you are just mindful of taking your game play that slowly but surely so that i ever you lose the game, you just have a small amount of money taken from you. Also, you have said that you seek to retrieve the money that you lost even the amount you have is still much bigger than your lost that is why you have lost everything instead just a part of your money. That is why whenever I am playing into an  online casino (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm) I am currently into, I tend to just keep the consistency of my bets for playing their variety of games so that if ever I lose the game, I still do have a handy in my account and I will not tend to chase for my lost because it will just take me to play all over again that might lead me to addiction.
