We all suffer from gambling losses because this is how things are you win some lose a lot and we have to be responsible for all our actions while we are playing

But Do You Have losses In Gambling That Still Haunts You Until This Day like you could have bought a new car with that loss
I will not ask how you overcome or deal with it but the year and amount or a figure and on what game

I've created a format to follow

• Date/year :
• Amount or Figure :
• What Game :

It's ok not to mention the amount only the year or the game for reference or any one of the three

Maybe a day for some people, but not for addicts. Some people do not lost to gambling at ones, it is gradually. All they will noticed is that they will feel like using money for gambling, even if the money is for another thing. And they will be losing it all the time because they gamble frequently.

I don't remember the day exactly, but it was a fine Friday and I lost big. It was the biggest loss in my life and the next day once again I managed to arrange money, so that I can recover my losses. Further I did the same and lost everything during the midnight of Saturday. My house was located close to church and the next morning is Sunday. Every Sunday used to go to church, and that Sunday I was sitting and crying when the Sunday mass is going on. I wasn't able to control myself and my room was locked. Different thoughts were running around me, but somehow I managed to come out those days.

Date/year: around 2017
Amount or Figure: 1~3 Bitcoin
What Game: mixed (dice, mines, blackjack)

at that time I deposit that amount and got a profit of around 2 bitcoin but when I try to withdraw sadly my deposit still not got any confirmation then I keep playing while waiting for my deposit got confirmation.
then the next I know is i got too many lost streaks then i make a big bet to recover all my loss but the bet was lost then all of my balance was gone just like that.

That is possible for high loss. I have been lost about 0.1 BTC in 2018 when playing dice. it is very painful when at the time today I compare it to the Bitcoin price. Because at that time the Bitcoin price (in December 2018) is still around 3k-4k. I lost about $400 in dice. It's regret for me now. So I think (old players) will definitely regret and most likely if they revenge for the loss, they will back to the casino. But, It will different situation that possibly will get more lost if still play like past,

• Date/year : Rather not specify, just know it was in my highschool days
• Amount or Figure : Around $20 to $30 I think?
• What Game : Poker

Now don't get me wrong, it may seem small if you look at it but in my eyes back then it was a pretty big amount considering I was still a student whose family didn't really have a great financial situation. I may have lost much more nowadays in just a single bet in my entire session, but it doesn't really push away the fact that it was my first "big" loss when I started gambling. I lost a few dollars beforehand which was really nothing since it was spread out through various games, but losing that much in one poker game was kind of big for me. In comparison to that, I can't even remember the biggest amount I lost, goes to show how that memory would always be in my mind even later on really.

Can't remember the exact amount but it was around hundreds of dollars and the game was slots, this was the only game I lost quite a lot of, but somehow it's hard to avoid playing these games because it's always fun to play these games and all the others namely plinko and dice but that's because they are pursuing the wager requirement. As for sports betting, the results are more positive.

But I think the player has more to lose compared to what he remembers because he will usually play at several gambling sites, the reason is because each gambling site offers different things and also the benefits offered to players will vary, and also the length of time he plays will be affect the amount with which players plays.

Thank you for posting and being honest I thought I'm the only one I too lost 4 BTC Bitcoin back in 2016 when Bitcoin was just over $700 I was a new player on dice of course the martingale is the culprit, I should have an insight back then that I just hold that Bitcoin imagine if I hold that 1 Bitcoin for just one or two more years.
Those years are when you have to extend your patience and have strong hands and insight, but sometimes greeds come first before insight

• Date/year : 2020

• Amount or Figure : $200+-

• What Game : Poker

For the figure I don't know if that's the exact amount but it was a little huge in me considering I'm not getting paid handsomely during that time. It was in poker but can't remember the site anymore, I guess it was down already since I don't have any clue now and no update whatsoever. I was in triggered mode I guess, the money wasn't spent on the same site though cause I have to try other site thinking my luck was there, but, it's the same. It's really a good advice not to chase some losses.

at times when I gamble bitcoin price is just around 900~1k$ and then if only I am able to withdraw my coins and hold it for just a year.
maybe I can get around 100k$ for holding it but unfortunately that is in the past.

I don't remember the day exactly except that I remember it was August and I was on vacation and one day I decided to not go to the beach and stay at home because I wanted to gamble the hell out and it was 2020 the year of Covid which I was addicted to slot machines (luckily it is been since that year I am doing fine).I started playing my favorite Play n go slot machines with x100 multiplier mechanism and started doing well and won a couple of x2000-x3000 multiplier but greed and addiction got the best out of me and I lost all.

Day/Year-August 2020
Amount: Well over 3500 dollars
What game : Swords and Holy Grail -Play n go slot machine.

My bad gambling losing experience was when I was in high school (around 2010), at that time the zynga poker game on Facebook was very popular, I used my school money for 6 months (about $ 100) at that time to play poker, the result was that I lost everything and failed the exam at that time so my parents forced me to transfer me to another school

That's a big lose according to the current price of Bitcoin but just as you said, it's already in the past and it won't do you any good to start wondering about what happened in the past.

As for me I don't think I have lose enough money at once that made me regret gambling but if we're to accumulate every penny I have used in gambling and loss that might amount to something more substantial but they weren't used at once for gambling. The highest should be around $50 - $100 dollars and I'm sure that's the highest amount I have ever wondered at once and after that experience I learnt to take my bets bit by bit and not let the greed of winning everything once get the better of me again.

The slot game that made me lose a lot of money but I'm not going to tell you how much it will be my personal secret with the biggest losses it's several hundred dollars that have been lost but I am still responsible for what I do with those losses.

Even though I lost a lot in the past, I still never left slot games, it's just that now I'm limited every time I want to play it that way, I can overcome control and not to spend more money.

Currently only often on sportsbook bets.

What game: Dice
I'm sure that many have lost that much in figures in Bitcoin during those years because it wasn't really that high at all. We think that it's okay to lose that much especially when you're just enjoying. But then, each year that passes when Bitcoin possess new ATHs, it's making me remember those days when I was too easy on dice and can lose that much in bitcoin but IIRC it wasn't that much converted in USD but then, computing it today, that's a lot already.

Date/year : 2021
Amount or Figure : $5k when converted from my local currency
What Game : luck based

I actually felt the world has ended for me and it took me s much effort to go through that loss because that money messed my entire life up that very year and I had to sell off some of my properties and even relocated from my house then to a much more smaller apartment to be able to gain back balance and it took me almost a year to recover because all my hopes where built on that money and I was hoping to double the money for a business.

I played the casino exactly 3 months ago and I can't forget it, I played the Limbo game, won 0.01 BTC from 0.005 BTC, the result of my salary from the signature campaign that I collected, then I tested again the next day, hoping to win even more, but it turned out that my winnings were all used up using the previous strategy, which made my mind open that the bookies cannot be beaten and it is difficult to win against gambling machines even though we have used many strategies.

Playing must be responsible, at that time I should have withdrawn my winnings then played again the following weekend but because of the desire to win again and trying to be consistent it turned out that it actually used up all the winning money.  ;D

Date/year : 2019
Amount or Figure : $200
What Game : Local Games (Pusoy)

This is the loss that I still can't move on especially every time I play this local game.
It's not that big but during that time, I'm totally devastated financially, and honestly I repay that losses for a year because its a borrowed money. Well, a big lesson for me here is not to borrow money if the purpose is for gambling. This is the time where I limit myself to a small funds only every time I gamble. I already learned the lesson and I hope that this will not happen again to my gambling career. So far betting works for me well.

I still remember betting $500+ (don't remember the exact value, but surely much higher) for Trump 2020...
For sure I've lost more than that on slots, but lost on event betting is really bad. I mean in slots I get to play for a long time, get some bonus rounds, and have a bit of fun in the process. It still haunts me because of that, I don't get to "play" and lost a 1-month gambling budget. I'd rather lose it on slots.

Date/year : several years ago
Amount or Figure : 0.006 BTC
What Game : Dice

It was around 50$ back then when I lost it, and maybe for someone it wouldn't be a big deal, but for me it was painful, very painful, tbh. I lost my entire balance in one click. I hit the MAX button by mistake, and without thinking a second I clicked OK replying to the popped-up question "Are you sure?". I don't know why I was acting like this, like I was in a big hurry or something, but I did it, I bet 0.006 BTC with 0.5% win chance, and I lost.

Someone like, could i even remember a particular day noted for my losses or mark them down except if am going to go through the track records on my bettings made or their slips, this amy actually be a loads of work for me when i still have other things to engage my time doing and moreover it doesn't make a changes concerning the past, i want to believe we most atimes keep the record of when we win in gambling than when we looses.

• What Game : dice crash game

I lost the majority of my BFG token I got from the bounty campaign I was earning a decent amount staking my BFG until I get tempted to try to increase my stakes by playing Crash game and dice, my biggest regret is I should have stopped when I was losing half of my BFG but keep telling myself that I still have a chance to recover my losses, literally chasing my loses, glad that I stopped or I lose all my BFG token, you really can't win against Crash game and Dice.

• Date/year : Last year if I'm not mistaken
• Amount or Figure : Will not mention about the nominal loss (this is clearly haunting me)  >:(
• What Game : Dice, Slot, Blackjack dan crash - I randomized the game because I had quite a large capital at that time
  

I know at that time I was very ambitious that I wanted to play a few games, it only lasted a few days and I didn't make any withdrawals, I knew at that time I wanted to continue the game with the hunch that I would win even more, but in reality it turned around and I couldn't recovering the defeat, at that time it was hard to forget because the amount was quite large.
But my capital is not as high as the price of the car, it is still far away. :D

You can consider thinking that you will still loss your token if you just hold until now due to the mega dump happened on the token price. I always think this way if I’m playing using casino tokens. But sometimes this method haunts me too especially Bitcoin. I loss tons amount of Bitcoin long time ago and I’m already a millionaire I just hold all my Bitcoin that loss on gambling.

I’m addicted on dice game before. You are still lucky that you loss using a token that the value is already decreased a lot from its original value when you loss it.

Yes there is a decrease in value but it's not only the token or its value when I lose those tokens their price was at its all-time high and I was earning $3 to $5 daily if I remember from staking my token if I did not lose those tokens I could have accumulated different coins and tokens from staking BFG token, I still believe in this token so I still accumulating because their platform their token and I'm still waiting for their goal to list their token on top exchanges like Binance.

I can't remember the specific date but I could remember it was on a Sunday after I have attended morning mass. I had the money that someone gave me to give to a customer of mine about $300. My friends came around and as usual, we went to the casino to have fun. The $40 that I budgeted to gamble with was exhausted and I decided to use $20 from the $300 with me,since I will be able to replace it. To my poor understanding on gambling after I lost that,I allowed my emotion to control me and I decided to stake to win back my loss. This why how chasing my loss drained all the $300 that was for someone. It was a bad experience for me and I learnt a hard lesson from it.

I learn that drinking and gambling are the worse combinations, you cannot think properly, and you cannot decide how and when to stop I lose my two-month salary, and I have to pawn my motorcycle so I can sustain our needs it really a very bad idea so when you drink don't gamble and when you are in a gambling session don't drink try not to combine this too, I have a very bad experience, combining these two.

It's hard for me to recall the exact date and amount that I had a huge loss in gambling but as far as I can remember, that brought me a tragic experience and lesson at the same time. I was with my friends that influenced me to gamble during that time and we were also having drinks. They told me that they have been constantly winning and had bought good properties because of gambling so that made me bet my savings which is intended for our house renovation. I believed that I could be as lucky as them. I was under the influence of alcohol so I was careless with my decision. I have lost my savings in an instance that made me feel very upset but I can't blame them because it was my personal decision to bet everything I had. I have learned that we should never risk the funds that aren't allocated for gambling for we might only regret things in the end.

• Date/year :Forgot the exact date. (somewhere between 2016-2017)
• Amount or Figure :0.06 BTC
• What Game :Dice.

This was back when the value of BTC is low and I made the big mistake of pressing the max bet button which is so foolish of me. Before, I don't know many gambling games that are online and I mostly focused on winning in dice games. But there was a lottery at Freebitco.in back then.
Most of the money came from my long hours of doing faucets for days/maybe weeks and I plan to just keep it for a long time.
As I said, it's a big mistake and I still regret it now. The memory of it will keep on haunting me but I am not sure if I will also deplete it in chasing losses if I had not done the instant loss. Maybe I will still mess it up even if that bad experience didn't happen. I learned a lesson though, careful with what you press. Always.

I'm not a guy that dwells on regrets and I know myself that I always have a good way to move with all those unlucky things have happened to me.
So, it's not really something that hunts me, but the amount of money that I've lost in gambling before is enough to buy atleast 2 cars. I don't have regrets about it and again it did not haunt me even once because I've enjoyed spending most of the time in gambling. That is where I also learned something valuable about gambling. 

We all have big losses that it couldn have changed if you did other choice.  On loss that I made was big enough to regret but not really an amount that I could buy a car. I don't gamble that much.

When you are new to online gambling and then you found someone showing a strategy to make you a fortune, your eyes will also light up as mine did. Yes I put about $1200 thinking i can make it. To my frustration, I came back to that gambler's blog to comment, its not working and the author is a scam.

What is clear at that time I was not involved or familiar with forums and crypto.

I spent about $400 which I think was my biggest loss, and I played virtual poker with my friends on Hari Raya.
and playing while enjoying alcoholic drinks that made me play out of control and this incident made me regret it because the money was very important for me to use the next day, and this made me sometimes still remember it and it's not a matter of the value of money but the money I used was very important to me , because I feel very guilty with the woman I love because I promised something that I don't think I need to publish here. And that woman is also not with me anymore, and not because of that problem, but indeed we are not destined to be together. :'(

If gambling loss still haunts you then gambling is not made for you. When you gamble, you should bear in mind that you can lose your money and you should gamble with the money for which the loss do not make you sad.
Although no money is extra for us, but this is how the experienced gamblers tell us. In gambling, we have to face big losses just like we get some big wins in gambling. If your old gambling loss is in the back of your mind, you will never be able to enjoy gambling, and also your gamble will be driven more towards the emotions of recovering the losses.

I'm one of those fairly financially responsible people that don't invest, gamble or use for betting too much and always play it very safe, so I don't have losses that haunt me. The worst I remember was in winter of 2020, I think, and it was losing about $30 on betting, but, while sad, it wasn't catastrophic for me.
But it's interesting to read through the thread and see what comes up often. Poker and dice seem mentioned most of the time, with dice probably being #1.
Perhaps it's because of how quick and easy playing dice is, especially with options of automatic betting, various existing 'strategies' and actually just make you lose more while feeling like you might win a lot.

I think this was the year, that I lose that kind of amount in a day. There was this friend of mine who continously posted his transactions in a social media platform as person who wants new things everytime, I dm him and say I want to avail his tutorial and then he give some tips and scripts but funny thing is it doesn't work on my end, I end up losing in a row, that was a regret but maybe a lesson as well.

 I wouldn't forget about this day when I was in school in my final year. I used my tuition fee to gamble and I lost everything. I couldn't pay up the fee and this gave me an extra semester. It is a sad story because I knew what I passed through that period after my loss.

I am happy that I was able to control my gambling activities after I went on a break from that loss. It is good as a gambler you don't chase your loss or neither allow your emotions to control you when gambling so that you don't become a victim to greed.

I have been lucky never to lose too much money gambling. Maybe it was less than $100 but I forgot the date or year.

That's why I can still call myself lucky that the numbers aren't that big. And that number doesn't haunt me but makes me try to reduce my gambling time. And now, I'm still trying to reduce the time and money I spend on gambling.

It's been working for a while and I still want to continue because I still love to gamble ;D

With my first sight of this thread, that major loss of mine just flew right back in my head and it just like that same faithful day.

What game : sport betting (soccer)

I can only trace it back so bitterly because the game actually felt like I have won the money and the worst part of it was that I was actually given a chance to cash out 950$ with the game remaining only a game to go and with the odd of the last team so little about 1.40 odd so i definitely had hopes that its was going to turn out good but everything went down the drain in just a matter of minutes and this loss has haunted me ever since but whats a man gonna do? I had no choice but to let it go because that's actually the right thing to do.

Mostly the losses have been gradual and not very big at once, but I remember once I lost a significant amount of money that I don't remember the date to. It was around $200 but it was about 5 to 6 years ago and though it doesn't sound like a big amount, it was for me since I don't come from a very rich family background or from a developed country.

The game was dice, of course, and I remember I used the martingale strategy that used to work for me for some time and I used it again to cover the losses that I had initially, and soon after I realized I'm already out of money with a massive loss streak.

This reminds me a night from over 10 to 12 years ago. It was in a Tennis Tournament. I was betting in point market. Started with £200. From the afternoon to the next day morning. Gambled over 10 to 12 hours and made £1300+. Then I become greedy. Mind started tricking me. In the next 10 to 15 minutes I lost all and then went to a sound sleep LOL

Dice and the martingale strategy are something that are so attached that they can't be separated, recently I also lost a little money again with that strategy, but it doesn't matter to me after all it's just a game of fun, if I win then I'll withdraw it if I lose consider Of course I'm donating money to the casino, but I think $200 is a lot of money in my opinion, since I bet usually spending only $20 on craps I think that's a lot.

But there are many casino games available now like limbo which is actually almost the same way to play the Limbo game, still using the martingale strategy will not win, I think any gambling machine is difficult to beat with this strategy or indeed this strategy was created by the casino itself so that it can be used other people and finally the machine reads it then easily beats you.  :D

I think it's not so much a past event that you keep chasing. I think past losses are forgotten relatively quickly. The problem lies more with the recent losses. Someone who lost 100k 5 years ago will not try to lose it back. Someone who lost 10k 3 hours ago will hunt to get it back of course. One person deals with losses differently than others. But would people ever think back to how lucky they all were when they won? often they think they win because their strategy was good but in fact they just got very lucky.

I have lost large sums of money several times. The last two losses I remember very well. After the last loss I made a rule not to play in the casino for more than $100-200. To be honest, there were times when I broke down and lost more money, but I'm glad I imposed this restriction for myself.

I remember until today, I was starting with sports betting, so I created an account on a sports betting site, but I didn't know how to analyze the games, but how I thought that if I bet on the game in which I had a favorite and that I I just had to bet on the favorite, so I bet 0.005 btc on barcelona but barcelona lost against a weak team, game odd was @1.55, after that defeat, I got irritated and went back to bet 0.004 btc on manchester united and lost again, I got irritated and thought about giving up, but I see a notification that I won a free bet worth 0.001 btc. even earning 0.012 btc

I still had a big loss, it was a terrible experience, so I didn't enter that sports betting site anymore and I stopped doing sports betting and I didn't enter any casino for a long time, only after 2021 did I enter any casino but I didn't play anything, I just watched the games and read and commented on the games, that experience of having lost money at the casino made me angry for years, currently I always avoid betting or playing at the casino all the time, I usually stop for a month or more and then I go back to placing bets, then stop again, this is so that I don't become addicted to gambling

        Crash Game on Bustabit

Whenever i do look back into these days then i could really say that i might really be that a millionaire basing up on our local currency if i had just able to hold off with these coins.
This doesnt talk about 2-3 BTC one bet but a several ones which i could say that it is really that totaling in the amount of 6 overall which we know that it is something
that an amount which is really that bigger.

I do remember on how i do make myself get greedy on that time. Back into those years where Busta is really that one of the main crash sites or main talks of that years.
These was the early years where crash games are really that having on peak of interest or popularity which lots of people been hanging out into  this place.
We do know on how crash game works and how fast you would be busting up your entire bankroll in a snap.

I have not lost a huge amount since I often play with limited budget of $30 to $50.  I always stop when my bankroll is emptied out.  It is the winnings and continue to play that I regretted. It was when I already won $500+ but keep on playing.  I should have stopped and withdrawn the amount but due to greed and wanting to win more, I keep on gambling even raising my bet to some degree until my winnings and my initial bankroll got depleted.  

This is a rare matter. Using gambling to buy car, build house and sustain a family for a long period of time is not easy. Because one can not win every day but one can lose every day and that is gambling for you. But your one big win can give you the above mentioned and it will never be in one day.

And one thing I noticed from gamble is that, sport betting is more favorable then casino games gambling. Because in casino gambling, you gamble with systems and not with human like sport bet.

To be honest, I don't remember exactly when. but what is certain, many of the gamblers, have experienced losses that they greatly regret. so do I, I have that experience. In fact, I'm sure we all have tons of stories and experiences related to gambling. here, I don't want to talk about the nominal, but for me the defeat really haunted me. as I recall, maybe about a decade ago, yes more or less. But, not in an online casino. In essence, the experience made me think and learn the most valuable lessons in life. I tried to correct myself, in the end I got an answer for me personally.

If I may say, there is no point in us remembering something that happened let alone regret, in this context gambling. however, it doesn't matter if we share experiences. maybe someone, willing to share his experience. to be honest if it's for crypto casinos, I don't have experience resulting in huge losses. because, for now I only gamble just for fun and especially for sports.

I don't remember which game exactly made me lose a lot, but one time I lost around 0.5 BTC back in the days when Bitcoin's price was around $300. At the time, it was only worth $150, but compared to Bitcoin's current price, it makes me feel regretful because if I had saved that money until now, I could have done a lot with it. However, that's just how life is, and after experiencing a loss it's important to move on and not overthink about it.

Currently, I don't gamble much and when I do, I only stake few bucks on Champions League games while I watch them live or sometimes for interesting other football games, For me, gambling is just for fun and I dont take it serious at all.

I've been losing in gambling before, most especially in slot games, but the loss I mentioned above is one that turned my life upside down, I put everything I had on that bet which mostly was money from my business, which I withdraw from the business solely for the purpose of placing this bet, with hope of winning, then take out the capital and put back In my business, then use the profit made to further expand the business and take care of other expenses..

It never crossed my mind that it is possible for me to lose that money, due to the fact that I was over confident that Argentina would win the game, but they lost to Saudi Arabia, and I lost my money, every strength I had left me, and I collapsed, I was hospitalized for about 3 days, this was my worst experience since I started gambling and loosing money..

But then, every is fine now, I've gotten over the loss and move on, I sure stay away from gambling for several months to enable me heal properly and forget the experience, and even till now, I am not fully back to gambling like before, but rest assure I've put the experience behind me for good.

Basically I was having a good streak of luck while playing dices and had accumulated some gains, I was feeling bored that day so I continued playing as I was. Suddenly, I left greed to take over and increased the wager while going repeatedly for a low multiplier. It only took some unlucky rolls and everything I managed to win and a little bit more was gone.

I felt defeated and decided to log out, it got me a kind of down for a couple of days, since then as soon as I hit red numbers and my budget is reached I finish my session. I learnt the lesson.

I remember back in 2018, I accompanied my brother to this physical casino near our my college and he told me that he wanted to earn some quick dirty cash. He explicitly told me to stop him after he profited at least $20 on the run. Time went on and his total winnings amounted to roughly ~$500 and I was in shock and disbelief.

Due to this envy of seeing my brother win, I tried playing blackjack and it went surprisingly well.... for the first 4 games. After that, I tried doing the martingale strategy and my losses grew exponentially. I tried doing my last $500 bet in hopes of at least recovering my losses but that hail mary bet yielded me a big fat L in which I went home contemplating my life decisions.

Even if $1000 is a relatively small amount to some people, this amount of money is high from someone who lives in a third-world country. In short, I spent all of my savings in gambling and it still haunts me to this day whenever I think about it.

Really hard to forget when you do make out that bet and its up on what you do really expect. For some Esports on what i do have
above where upsets did really happen and that was my last 0.01 BTC and for that 0.1 BTC max bet accident
then i did really able to punch up my monitor. lol

This happened two years back and I did a big mistake and for that still I'm running and soon after the incident I shared my loss in a thread (Be A Responsible Gambler (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5329777.msg56754600#msg56754600)) as to come out of it. Really bad decision to borrow and gamble, even now I'm paying interest for what I've done. From then I've changed a lot, I loss but not to that extent. Hope I'll end the debts at the earliest. The loss is huge, $15000 and the game is Dice.

The only loss that bothers me was a bad company not allowing me to withdraw so they just disappeared eventually.    The excuse to block withdrawals was via kyc which I presented but they objected and demanded more documents to be given in person; I should have realized they were being fake and merely delaying for their later plan to decline all balances while shutting down the site.
   Unfortunately I will have to take it as a lesson learned, one tactic to remove a balance stuck in this way is via arbitrage which is to place two bets on the same game and elsewhere you win the bet that you lose in the broken site.  Thats the only 'easy' solution I can think of, obviously less then ideal and has a cost to it in the spread.

Honestly, I can never remember how many losses I have suffered in gambling. Since the first time I gambled at a crypto casino, I was aware that this could lead to a loss in terms of money so I really had to control myself. Indeed, I have experienced losses, but they were not as big as those I have met because I was trying to control money in gambling. But I have experienced big losses, so I have to learn more about self-control.

And until recently, I had no haunting experiences about the amount of losses I had before. So try to forget about previous defeats and tell yourself that it's all part of gambling and you have to be able to accept it willingly.

My biggest loss was when I first got to know the Route game and I used the capital I deposited in the amount of $ 150.
At that time I played until it lasted more than 2 hours, the duration of the game, in the first few rounds I managed to get consecutive wins so that the profits I got reached more than $ 400.
Because of the greed that I had, a feeling of desire arose to win and get bigger profits so I increased the bet amount to continue the game but after playing for about 2 hours all of my balance was used up without the slightest remaining.
With high enough emotions, the desire to return the loss reappeared, so I made another deposit of $ 150 and started round after round with the same bet but the result was still the same, my money was all gone.
From this experience, I always think of losing when playing Roulette, so it makes me afraid to play Roulette.

I am not a player, and I came to this as a child. I remember slot machines from my childhood. Oh, it was my dream to win some kind of toy; every time the machine brought it to the exit through the window, the toy fell, which made me very nervous. I harassed my mother to give me even more coins for new attempts. In the end, the toy was simply bought by the parents.
The other moment was in adolescence. Do you know those lottery tickets where you have to erase them to see the coveted amount of winnings? It was exciting; all the money spent was intended for my pocket expenses.
But I have matured; the passion has dissolved, and now I am sometimes ashamed of my stupidity. Understanding that nothing comes easy in this world has made my life so much easier. A life without illusions provides better security in our very troubled times.

Sports betting is usually considered to be safer than other casino games since you have the opportunity to analyze the games and teams and select a team based on that, but this proves that when you are unlucky, even a favorite team can lose the game and you will lose your bet. So even in sports betting, luck does play its roll.

But generally if we see, even the poll on this post shows that, sports betting has less risk than gambling on casino games like slots or any other game because there is an house edge and the chances of losing are more than winning.

So, you can gamble using real money on that game? Awesome. All the time, I thought Facebook games are just free to play but that was also the time I learn how to use Facebook and eventually play popular Facebook games. Never been involved in gambling till I discover cryptos around 2017 and dice was my first game.

Luckily I never had a traumatizing loss. Just a bad experience like I am trying to hit the minimum withdraw threshold but then I lose all my balance. Gambling is not wrong but what is wrong is if it's already consuming your life. In your case, you can't focus in your studies. Transferring to another school is not a solution but limiting or quitting gambling is.

You are right, this is a common thing in gambling. 
 
If you are a gambler, you should know that there are a lot of things that you can do to make yourself better.

 **What is the Risk of Gambling

I thought zynga is just a game that doesn't require real money and only the online gambling is the only thing that is available in facebook in which some of the influencers are making an ads everyday and promoting it in their online streaming.  I guess there is more thing in facebook, but then it will teach us a lesson that we should know our limit and we should be careful to our curiosity.

I shouldn't want to remind myself of the bad experience I've had in gambling, it frustrates me, if I remind myself of defeat, the games I played, it sucks for me.

For sure you have reminded me again of the bad gambling that I have ever experienced.
Bad experiences that always haunt me in gambling.

• Date/year: it happens in 2021.
• Amount or Figure: $1000 as swallowed by the earth, without a trace.
• What Game: The two types of games I bet on.
1. Slots
2. Roulette

I always remember those two games forever, these two games have made me wary.

I don't have losses in gambling that still haunts me to this day because what I have lost in gambling will not return, so I have no regrets. Maybe it's the amount that I still remember, but usually, after a few days, it will disappear by itself.

• Date/year: Under 2015
• Amount or Drawing: $100
• What game: Slots

I was too scared to lose that big, but that $100 was an amount I could afford to lose gambling at the time.

Yes, you are right that Zynga games do not require real money. it's just that these chips can be traded illegally from players to players. or, from players to collectors who trade them. this game is more popular in asia and Türkiye, yes as i remember. because in the past online casino sites were rare, as for some online casinos, the games they adopted were poker games or live casino and sportbook. So, it's natural that in several Asian countries, this game is very popular and can be traded.
although actually, platforms do not allow the practice of buying and selling chips other than in their services. as far as I can remember, there were lots of new gamblers popping up who were initially unfamiliar with this type of Texas Holdem Poker game. some of my friends, experienced material losses due to their addiction. in fact, some others even sold some of their vehicles.

well, referring to the title of the OP thread, at least, every gambler has had their own experiences and stories regarding losses that they might regret. even if willing, OP can also share his experience related to OP's own thread.

I can remember most of my wins but not of my losses because it truly is haunting if I'll still got those in my mind. Well but if I try to remember them, they're not really much as I'm not a hardcore gambler. Unlike those that I'm seeing in here that they've got a lot to lose and they're okay with it since they're determined gamblers.

I remember zynga poker games. Yes, it will require you chips to play in and as it's a game and a gamble, people can literally buy chips from other players personally so lose there is still considerably an actual loss of money if you lose.

Date/year : This happened 2016
Amount or Figure : $200
What Game : Slot

Maybe this is not much for some of us but everytime I remember the money that I spent on slot I somehow have this guilt feeling since you can buy many things with such amount already. That's also the reason why I rarely play slot game when I gamble.

But now I learned not to dwell in my past losses and move on because it can't bring any good to me. Playing in moderation and acceptance are necessary in order to not have regrets when you gamble your money.

cannot contribute more because never that I gamble that much or even 4 digits amount for a single day of gambling because Money is more valuable for me than to have fun in betting .
so haunting me? nope none that i manage to come out to .

But as far as I remember , when i try playing or betting in Horse racing ?

Horse Racing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_racing)


that i lost the biggest amount I ever gamble in my entire life and that is more than 400 dollars(in which that time maybe multiplied by 3 now)

that day I promised to myself to never gamble hundred dollars in single day and yes,
I managed to do that till now.

I was participating in a dice contest or promotion and I remember being so close to winning one of the upper-tier prizes but I suddenly got a stroke of bad luck losing two to four rolls. It was so bad because I was rolling at 98% win probability which is the max win probability you can go for on most dice sites and it's one of the better strategies to use for the contest i'm participating. With the kind of luck I had that day I can't forget how unlucky I was even though I had bigger losses than this.

What Game: Dice

Yes there are some losses that I think about from time to time, but I wouldn't say that they are haunting me. Over the years I accepted that there will be bigger losses in gambling, it's part of the game and we can't avoid it. All my losses have never been so big to a car from it which is probably why it's easier to live with them. My biggest ever gambling loss came during my first trip to Las Vegas, I managed to lose around 1200 USD in 1 or 2 hours playing roulette. That was already 5 years ago and I still think about it today. My main problem is not losing so much money, but rather how I lost it. The whole evening I had been drinking alcohol and was quite drunk when my friends decided to start gambling. After that night I said myself to never gamble when drunk again. Drinking 2-3 beers during a night is fine, just not getting wasted. If I had stayed sober that night I would have quit much earlier before my losses reached such a high level. Now I am more relaxed about it, as long as you are learning something out of your big losses it wasn't for nothing.

Loss is a loss and we have different towards such thing. In my case, I had a loss of $2.5k before in slots. It became a wake up call on my gambling career to limit things. I had the urge to take back my losses but fortunately my friends helped me to accept what happened and limit the amount I gamble in each day or week. Unfortunate but I am thankful of it 'coz the idea of not learning to accept defeat is what scares me the most; I could have lost a bigger amount. Knowing myself that time, I would be frustrated to get back in that day as well which will never be advisable in gambling given that results are never certain and losing is more likely to occur in every bet.

I don't have losses in gambling that still hunts me to this day, what I rather have are near win situations that I can still recall and I sometimes wish that I had won those amounts, that is cases where I should have won but ended up loosing. I do not gamble with money that is not mine and when I gamble, I am always cautious not to exceed a limit. I understand that this may not be the situation for others and I am not claiming to be better than them but that is my own situation.

For people who have such regrettable stories, It is in your best interest to examine and recall what made you put yourself in that situation, so you can try to avoid a reoccurrence in the future.

If they are active gamblers, of course, they often experience losses, but this is related to relative amounts and depends on each person. I have experienced losses in slot games of around $400-$500 twice in 2021, initially I had consecutive wins in several rounds, so in the end I increased my bet and ultimately lost all the profits and capital I had. That is the reason now considering playing slots and and usually if playing only a small amount no longer forces the will.

More interested in placing bets on football for now and even though I have also experienced defeat in betting, but somehow losing bets on football doesn't make me remember because maybe talking about a hobby and also not betting large amounts.

Yes, that's a powerful way to change habits, namely by being consistent, let alone changing the mindset so that we don't get carried away by emotions in gambling and are also provoked by curiosity so that we continue to play gambling and spend hundreds to thousands of dollars, playing must be responsible and wise in betting, that's why I also felt like you, but finally I was able to let go of the desire to gamble.

Promise yourself to stop following your passion in gambling because it will plunge yourself into the same hole, so just follow your heart so you don't become a bad habit and an addict, play wisely sometimes we need to think that gambling is just for fun it's better than serious play.

I don't feel haunted by my losses. But I still remember some crazy red streaks on roulette (22 times without red, I didn't have balance for the next bet), crazy sports parlays where I got busted for one game or one goal, to not mention dices and limbo, and I guess slots are also a special category! But all that doesn't matter, I tested my luck with the money I had and I lost... unlucky day or night. Those who gamble for real know that we are in constant up & down mode, and we had many lucky and unlucky sessions in the past, but because we like to gamble we will try it again... and I am sure that we are aware of our chances! :)

I will try some slots later... last night I wasn't so lucky, so maybe tonight will be my night!

Yes, it comes back to ourselves, because it is ourselves who know exactly what is allowed and what is not allowed to do, and which limits become our walls so that we have the brakes not to go any further. I think the feeling of regret will be felt by everyone, and it's also different for each person to overcome it. There are those who make their regrets as a lesson so they don't do it again, or set certain limits like you did, and some even just regret it, in the sense that he continues to do something that makes him regret, and this is usually done by an addict.

Sounds like, it's easier said than done.

I know that most gamblers/bettors should remember these at all times but in reality, at least for me, that kind of mindset will always be with you during the early stage where you're still starting your session on any specific day but when you're already lucky enough and got huge funds in your hands, that same mindset will not be kicking into you because you are still in a good position, especially in a luck-based games.

You can feel in your words that you do not lose hope of winning. In my opinion this is the right approach, because a black streak is always followed by a white one and we will all be very lucky someday.

As for my past losses, by and large I have long since accepted that I lost a lot of money in gambling. One thing that makes me happy is that I gained experience, which I still use to this day. No one knows what happened to that money in another case, but I think it would have been gone as well.

We've got the same situation because I cannot really remember exactly what happened or when did that happened even if I wanted to recall the specifics on purpose so that I can post it here or share it in a different situation, it's just that all is just vague to me. But I know that when I had those big losses in the past, it really haunted me in the first few couple of nights, it's like my brain is having a re-do on the very same situation so that I can move on to it quickly.

When it comes to very bad or worst losses then i cant really think off on a specific one due to lots of experience on such matter.Yes, it could give out some temporal situation which you would really be that thinking up f or how many hours or even days.This would really be testing out your emotions but on the time that you are already getting used to it then you wouldnt mind much on which one you would really be thinking.
You could just easily move on and just like there's nothing happened since you've been numb into this kind of situation.lol

I did remember one though

It happen that I had money for my annual computer training with me, but my friends and I had a habit of trying to increase any quick money we came across through gambling. We would place single bets on "sure games" where strong teams played against weaker teams, and if the odds were in our favor, we would win something good to buy drinks. I placed a bet on one such game and won with odds of 1.34. I was excited about my success, I told my friend, who then introduced me to a prediction group that shared "sure games." However, my first bet with the group resulted in a loss, and instead of stopping I still went ahead, I took a risk and lost everything I had on me, the profit was gone and the computer training fee vanish as well.

The moral of this story is that, all sportsbook lovers should know that there are no guaranteed wins in sports betting. The picks offered by the claimed sure games are simply predictions, which may turn out to be either successful or unsuccessful and what they usually post are the winning games, they don't post their lost games and lastly, believe on your instinct, don't fall for sweet talks from what people say.

When i do make out some bet on an esports games on which i did put up a thousand on a one sided match considering on comparing out in between teams statistics and records
on which you cant really be able to say that it was really just that impossible on beating them up but there some nasty comeback in the late game which it did really
give out different outcome or result. This do keeps on haunting me or something that i cant really be that easily to forget whenever i do see
the same scenario when making up some sports bet on which i do always make out consideration on checking it out.

It's good if you two don't have the haunting experience of defeat because it will make us unable to move on from that defeat and will always be in the shadows. We may also have the desire to recover from that defeat, but the more we try, the more defeats we will experience. So we should try to forget about it and think it's part of gambling because other people have suffered bigger losses than us. We control our brains, and even if we have experienced big losses in the past, we should be able to move on from them, even if it takes time.

Probably the most memorable betting loss in my betting history occurred on 10 December 2017 during the Southampton vs Arsenal match.
At that time he was addicted to parlay.
The amount of the bet was not big, but of the 10 matches I chose, it was the Soton vs Arsenal match that would determine whether I could buy a motorbike if I exchanged it with my country's currency.

At that time I just needed Arsenal to win. When Austin scored a quick goal around 3 minutes, resigned that the bet had been lost. In fact, in the 88th minute Arsenal made it 1-1 thanks to Giroud's goal. Immediately enthusiasm peaked again because Arsenal's chances of winning were quite large in the final 5 minutes of the game.

After that incident, parlay no longer interested me.

But I need to convey this moment because it's hard to forget how hope is lost when it's right in front of our eyes.

Mine wasn't at a time, it was a gradual loose. It was during my high school.
The year was 2018 and it was soccer game. I used my school fees ($200) to place a bet on EPL. I didn't use the whole money at once. I was using it bit by bit and before i could realise what was happening, i have used all and i had to use part of my rent to bet again because i was looking for closure which i never find.
You wouldn't want to know how i felt because till now each time i remember the lost i feel terribly bad about it

It's the same as me, even I don't only use my school savings from pocket money and also use school payment money to gamble, but that's dark youth, always make stories of the past as experiences and it won't be possible to repeat them in the future, the more my adult remembers that incident as the unlucky day i lost $100 on losing a football bet, that's why it will be remembered forever.

You are not alone because I think that everyone has experienced defeat and lost money in their youth, but always use that defeat as a lesson because the more we remember and we are saddened by it, it won't help to return everything either.

What matters most is we learned from our mistakes and we will be not repewt what happen so that we will not lose again. But the thing is, I wonder how he can play does minors are allowed in his area to play? Everyone has their mistakes, some will learn and some will still do the same, in gambling it is very fun to gamble and to play but we need to have discipline in our own self so that we will not be addicted.

We don't need to question it because it could be that the law in his country is different in our country, where minors cannot freely play gambling even though they can still gamble secretly.

We have made mistakes before and may make more mistakes in the future. But as long as we learn from those mistakes, we will not repeat the same mistakes. And even if we make other mistakes in the future, it will be different and add more experience to us so that we can learn more and not make serious mistakes later.

Man, if you've learned your lesson from it, and you will never do something like this in your life, that was a cheap lesson, I'd say, and you must be happy about it. A $300 debt is not something that can ruin your life, isn't it. But now you know that you shouldn't risk the money that don't belong to you. This knowledge may save you from much bigger troubles in the future, and not necessarily connected to gambling either. It's great that such a good lesson cost you that little.
