Was gambling today at the day time with my phone on a very regular gambling site which many of us do uses here, and along the process I wasn't able to control myself anymore and I fell asleep, when I woke I noticed that my balance turn to zero (0) and nothing was left.
Since I woke up then till now have been wondering how come my balance turns to 0, then I have to go through gambling history I noticed that it was the game I was spinning since I didn't lock phone screen and I doze off, maybe who knows if it was my hands or part of my could had touched the screen that happens to emptying my balance.

Have any of you experience this same mistake or issues I will call it?

Lesson:
No matter what, we should never over stressed ourselves after you might have face difficulties at the work place and they also come back home to gamble, the best is never stay on the bed gambling else you could get carried away by sleep and then you can empty your balance entirely without knowing.

You can stay on your bed to gamble that does not mean you will sleep off and to me i will say that it depends on people, to me I prefer resting on my bed while gambling and when i finished gambling then i exit from the gambling site. Just that you were so carried away by the sleep if not you are meant to lock the phone screen before sleeping and that is the mistakes i do not Everly try at home while sleeping because any slightest mistakes you will lose everything your account.
I have heard similar stories where someone just leave his laptop to step out side, and before he could come back either his daughter or niece has emptied his balance. People should be careful with their online device otherwise could end up losing important things to them, or just imagine someone walk in into your room and you were sleeping they can easily access your device and send out all your money if that person knows your personal keys or password.

This is a rather hilarious experience. The question is: aren't you with someone in bed? ::)
If "sleeping while touching the screen" can drain your balance, then the app is either poorly designed or intentionally permissive. I don't think you're the victim of a bug, but rather an environment designed to slowly erode your sanity and bankroll.

After all, gambling is the concentration of the mind to beat randomness. And (funny thing), in bed you're supposed to be achieving pleasure randomly, with your dream, with your partner(s)/toys. You can't possibly be enjoying two different things simultaneously that require different "achievement" efforts.

Your bed time must have been disturbed a lot and the quality of sleep reduced too largely, the sub-conscious mind participating in your game while you sleep is challenging to the health. Setting up a special place on desktop for gaming activities would help to fix the mind against easy accessibility and focus it on the location where game must take place, and whenever in bed it'll never disturb, the player is only expected to help control this to happen, which helps increase quality bed time for health and psychology.

Yes that is wright gambling on the bed is a one way to losing all your fund, because bed is meant for relaxation and even if not being stressed from the day's activities, you will definitely fall asleep some how, aside from being gambling too, even reading and any other things being in bed and wanting to work means you should be ready to sleep off, it is only few persons that can control themselves while on bed and don't fall asleep, next time if I were you and it's important for me to be on the gamble, then I must switch off my phone or log out when feeling sleepy to avoid such losses.

It sounds like to me that your spouse decided to keep gambling for you after you fell asleep?

Or am I missing the plot?

I am not worried about gambling in bed. I wish they had beds in physical casinos. Lose all your money, take a nap. Or is that just a Las Vegas hotel? :D

If you’re just doing it for fun, then it doesn’t really matter if you lose since you can still handle it comfortably. But if you’re the type of gambler who takes it seriously and starts chasing losses, then you shouldn’t be doing that while lying in bed. Treat it properly, and as much as possible, stop gambling at least three hours before sleeping so your mind can relax and you can have a peaceful rest.

Always remember that gambling is meant for fun, it should only take a small part of your time.

Don’t sacrifice your required eight hours of sleep for it, because losing rest will slowly kill your health, no matter how much you win.

LOL..
This is actually funny though, how could she or he knows that someone else gambled for him. I have actually experienced same thing but not when I was sleeping. To me I usually face challenges with my children especially my daughter and the brother, when my system is open they wouldn't mind keep doing all sort of nonsense just to please themselves, what next I do is to lock an fold it back to the table where their hands won't reach there.

This is a good advise but this can easily be prevented if you have allocated a portion of your money in your balance.

Nowadays, slots are becoming increasingly popular over the years due to its simplistic nature. Certain features have been introduced, where the game will continue spinning until you have exhausted all of your balance. This feature makes it more convenience for us but it becomes potentially dangerous if you doze off and let it spin continuously.

Just to add, there are also some slot games where it gives you an option to spin xxxx amount of times and it automatically stops for you. I guess that's the better approach in order to avoid the incident that happened to OP.


Sounds to me like the spouse knew what was happening! Hahahaha perhaps the spouse or "partner" is also addicted to gambling?

Of course it's not advisable, not only it could disrupt with your sleep pattern or your sleep but it can also lead to what you have. On the other hand, sometimes I do an overnight bet with my tablet, I set it in auto bet and run my strategies all night, there are times that it works and most of the time... not. The problem with this is it keeps running in my mind even when I'm asleep, thinking what happened to my bet and woke up in the middle of the night just to check it. Later on, I realized that it's not worth it and it compromises my sleep (health) and so I decided to play only outside my room or in front of my computer.

I am not sure how the game keeps running even after the phone is locked? Because I have personally never played on phone websites.

But I consider the bed to the best place for only two things - that is sleep and sex. Maybe use it as a place to work in case you are lacking a table only for a short period of time.

But gambling before going to sleep not something I say is healthy.

I understand now and I will also try to know how to channel my activities so that I won't also compromise my sleep for any reason because when someone don't sleep properly it easily leads to headache, so most times I wonders those who gambles over night without even blinking their eyes.
When I woke up I was mad over myself for having to leave my phone screen opened without closing it, if that I does there is no day I could have emptied my balance and what drain away was my weekly budget amount which I planned to used for like 3-5 days before I can fund my gambling account again.

In the depths of your slumber, did you find yourself playing the slots? The bed is no haven for such games, it's a place where, in relaxation, your mind plunges into the realm of the unconscious

But anyway I don't believe it, people gamble most during the day on smartphones and they don't sleep during the day. If you gamble for a short time and gamble for a long time, you will show signs of addiction. And you also mentioned that if you gamble in bed, you can fall asleep more than you can sleep in the open field, when the body is tired, if you gamble in bed, you will be more likely to fall asleep faster. So you are basically facing addiction due to which you are not able to keep up with gambling.

Basically, you should gamble when your body is healthy and your brain is cool. On the contrary, if you gamble, you can definitely lose, because if you never gamble with a tired body and a warm brain, then your chances of losing will increase by 90%. You are gambling with a tired body, which is why you have fallen asleep during the day.

Been there done that several times and my balance still the same before I sleep.
There was a time that I play slots before sleep and suddenly fell but if you a re feeling sleepy you should not set you phone on a auto spin.
the problem on this is not the  online gaming at bed, it is you who set the  spin automatic, that is why when you woke up you dont have  the balance anymore.

Thats why I have created 10 years ago this informative topic about gambling, trying to share my experience as gambler (that has even reached decent results).

You didn't followed the rule number 6 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1234109.0

If you want to win, gambling must be taken seriously.... or at least you had to minimize all errors.

This could happen because your phone screen is left unlocked, and you're unconsciously touching it, allowing the gambling to continue intermittently without you realizing it. Or, it could happen because you've activated auto-spin for a long time, and you're staring at the screen without realizing it, accidentally falling asleep, but the spins continue, resulting in poor results, depleting your balance to zero.
I've never experienced anything like this myself, as I don't force myself to continue gambling, but I do gamble in bed quite often, but I haven't fallen asleep yet; I stay alert to avoid unwanted incidents like this.

It means that you have set your phone or the gambling apps in automatic, if you are playing slot games. So it will just go and spin even if you're not pressing it. Yes, it happens to me multiply times as I used it as my way to go to sleep but my bet is in the minimum only.

Sometimes I will just feel that someone will take my phone away from me and even if I'm sleeping my wife will tell me that my hands will try to fight it out. Sort of an instinct that I feel like someone is grabbing my phone.

It is healthy? Of course not, but again, as I have said, I will just play to calm my body and relax until I fall asleep with my phone still on the automatic mode.

All gamblers have there unique gambling practice which they identify as the best gambling pattern that works, depending on the outcome at the end of the game. All gamblers operates with reasons which will be practiced in a specific way and time depending on choice because gambling is a voluntary activity which will be practiced as preferred by the gambler. As for gambling time, there is know specific time for gambling but will be determined by the involved person. While some choose morning, some also prefers evening, some may like bed gambling because gambling requires high level of concentration which can be gained at bed, so I see nothing wrong in bed gambling

That's very unfortunate for you. For me , it's like sleep just vanish when I do spinning it's fun to each of those line fall from above hoping next one I will hit the Jackpot haha. But if you have the tendency of sleeping you should avoid it. Ig you're bored to that game that's why you're falling asleep.
Didn't faced this type of thing but I remember onced. I was playing poker tournament and I was drinking at the same time , a drop of water fall into my screen and it goes for all in with high card :D you know what I mean right if you had played poker. Fortunately everyone folded and I've saved haha. Sometimes these uncertain incident happens. It doesn't means you need to stop gambling while you're on bed . I'm replying this post while I'm laying on my bed.

That depends on your attitude like as you said you said you slept off when betting on spinning games not football but spinning yes of course they will remove all in your account because is spinning,that's why I don't advise anyone to go into that spinning games is not helping now just look at what happened to you now , spinning games is scam.

Well most phones, unless you are watching Youtube or Netflix, will actually automatically lock itself after a few seconds if you are not staring at the screen. I think this is with most iphones that have the face id feature, when you are not staring at your phone, it locks it to prevent unauthorized access.

However what you said is that you fell asleep and perhaps hit some button, lost everything and then the phone locked itself. I suppose this is possible but rare. Are you sure you werent drunk and drunk gambling and you just don't remember losing it all?

Most people gamble and do everything on their phones these days, they do it in the bathroom or in bed. This is nothing unusual.

That's really a terrible experience mate so so sorry about it, that's why we need to be very alert and always in the best frame of mind when gambling so things like this wouldn't repeat again. However, me I do love gambling on bed most times because it gives me maximum relaxation and also a quiet time of gambling.

Also let's ensure to be in our best state of mind before we even open the Gambling site to avoid regrets like this, what if it was actually millions of dollars that went down the drain I believe we wouldn't have being saying a different thing entirely.

It is not just about the fact that you were on bed you were just tired and perhaps feeling drowsy...because I can stay on my bed and gamble without sleeping off if I'm not feeling tired..if you are feeling stressed perhaps from having a long day at work or wherever try as much as possible to avoid gambling, make sure you get enough rest, give your head enough time to relax, you can always gamble later on.

Gambling in bed is not a problem but what is your state of mind when you are lying down and gambling is what matters, if you are very relaxed and active while on your bed it is ok to gamble there. But when it's your bedtime or after a stressful day you begin to gamble on your bed you should know that you cannot cheat nature, you are going to dose off at some point. Gambling requires your total concentration and if there is any distractions you can attend to it and come back to gambling, if it is sleep it's better to stop gambling and give in to it.

Many of us have become accustomed to playing games, videos or gambling on our mobile phones while lying in bed or sitting. At first, it seems very simple“ to pass the time”, “to have fun”, “maybe some money will come” it starts like this. But here is the real problem. In this state, the ability to make decisions is somewhat reduced. So while gambling, we think, “Hey, let’s play again, this time I will definitely win.” This greed does not let people stop. It does not stop even if you win, it does not stop even if you lose. In this way, gambling gradually takes the form of a dependence, which causes mental stress, financial loss and destroys the rules of life.

I once experienced the same thing as you, but fortunately I didn't suffer any losses.

At that time, I was gambling on slot games in bed, then I suddenly fell asleep, and when I woke up, I realized that I had been betting before falling asleep. After that incident, I never gambled in bed again, because I felt it could disrupt our entertainment activities (gambling). Perhaps, I was lucky at that time for two reasons: first, I wasn't too rough when sleeping, and second, I had activated the automatic screen lock on my phone, so an undesirable incident didn't occur at that time. So, I think gambling in bed is not recommended, because it can disrupt our entertainment activities in gambling. It should be better for us to gamble not while lying in bed, and preferably in a condition that has no chance of falling asleep, one way is by relaxing on a chair.

While this habit is normal among people it can also be a sign of irresponsible behaviour, you must have been stressed out one way or another, coming back from work requests your body to rest, doing something else is irresponsible.

If you think I am wrong then why the lost of money? Your body isn't ready for the gambling session you forced yourself to make it happen, and you slept off with your casino tab still open.

Next time when you get home from a long day work you should rest, after waking up you are free to do whatever you like and however you like.

Accidents are inevitable that in gambling especially when playing in the slot games which had got me the accidental experience where I mistakenly or unintentionally tapped the wrong button while i intended to do different activity when I opened the site of which it caused me huge lost.
So your own experience Op can be common to happen but the advice remains that it is not good to gamble or even operate your device when dozing because it can lead to damage.

If you're feeling sleepy, don't gamble. Or try to stay awake because when you're sleepy it's hard to focus. What happened to you wasn't really about being tired it's because you kept gambling while lying down and ended up falling asleep.

I've experienced something similar, but luckily I didn’t lose any money. I was playing a freeroll poker tournament that was held at midnight. My position was already quite good, but since I fell asleep for a few minutes I missed several important hands. So if you're feeling sleepy, it's better to wash your face first and avoid playing while lying down.

I gamble in bed times without number and I like it.

But if I am very stressed because of work, I will prefer to get home, eat, have some few important conversations with people around me and sleep. This is the reason I prefer to just gamble during weekends when I know that I will have time for it.

Why are your friends on your bed? Are you staying with them? If you went for a hangout then itself enough to get the fun and no need to seek gambling for more fun.

If you are feeling sleepy, then just shut down your mobile no matter what you are doing with it and I doubt we will be doing anything important at that time so whatever we are doing can wait or just no need to be done at all.

As for me it is just the same situation like to lose a phone. It is too rare situation, just an accident, and it can`t be a reason to stop "bed gambling".
I see here another lesson: don`t deposit big sums. Your money in casino is not the same like money in your pocket.
If you have just few bucks for relax - it wouldn`t become a problem. And before big games you can deposit as much, as you need - it takes just few seconds now.

Gambling when you are stress out is not advisable at all because you wouldn't know when sleep would carry you.

 However, it's very essential for us to always gamble when we are less free because gambling require a lot of time, especially if you are the type that normally work from morning till night, you would definitely feel sleepy anything because it's pretty obvious that no one can everly overcome sleep when the time comes.

This is the reason why I don't like to use auto spin feature of the casino to avoid experiencing that issue. There's really a chance that situation will happen especially if you are playing at your bed.

That's why I like to take everything manually especially playing slot so I have full control of my game and make sure to enjoy also quit when its needed.

We should never stressed our selves chasing something and better people stop being lazy then pay attention while they are playing. To bad regret always happen after we lose everything so learn from what you experience and if you can't afford to lose everything don't use their auto spin feature.

No, for me gambling is a separate thing that I only do when I'm focused on it. I don't gamble while driving, at work, or in bed like you do. I don't know what you people who gamble until the last minute of the day are thinking. Normally, it's going to have negative consequences, as in your case. I gamble when I'm relaxed, have time, and am not engaged in any other activity. Besides, when I go to bed, I usually avoid stimulating activities.

There’s a betting history available on you casino account. Maybe you are on auto bet mode before you sleep that’s why your balance wiped out when you wake up.

I’m always betting on bed but I’m doing a manual spin only or a couple of bonus buy when playing slot games.

It’s useless to still gamble if you are already sleepy since you are not having fun already.
