I thought this was going to be about how a guy drove his wife away and lost her because of his gambling addiction. But this time lost means lytrally lost her using her as a stake. What a sad world we live in where a person is considered an asset. How is this even legal ?

Shocking, very sad to see such things happen in my country. I must say people should gamble at their own risk and be responsible gamblers. Or better yet never gamble at all. What a world we live in where a heavenly bond like marriage is destroyed by the greed of a person. People should learn a lesson from this and stay away from gambling if they value their own lives and relatives.

I just wondering how about if he win, does he gets another wife again? How can a person become a stake unless someone offer the same things too. But to bet on site I dont think it will make any sense because you cant even place your bet. How much each person is really worth for? ;D

This is called as Addiction of Gambling, he is got so much addicted that to play gambling he staked his wife but that too he lost it and this is not a one story their are so many which have not hit news as they all got sacked with out help, this news came out due to wife ran away from their caught and went to police and complained it.  This is very common in gambling

Sounds like a trick. How is that possible to put a human on a bet?! It is human, not even an animal. I am wander what happen with those woman after her husbant lost in that game.

That's strange, how could he just do that... I can't imagine doing such thing...I think he is not just a gambling addict, I suspect that he is also a drug addict aside from being an alcoholic... A man in good state of mind wouldn't do that, that's his wife and not his property... Lucky that the lady managed to file a complaint, she is a strong woman...Other women won't do that for the sake of they are terrified and being castigated by their husband if they do it...

WOW smartest gambler I have ever heard of: it's a win-win bet. Whatever will be the outcome of his bet his overall situation after it will be way better than the one be fore  ;D

+EV game here

I'm fairly sure that you can't lose a human being in an online bet. So no need to worry that someone will bet you away.


I laughed more than i should! Good one! :D

This is not only about the man being unfit for reasonable thinking but in addition to that is the right of women in that country which comes into questioning on how they can be traded away as a wager. In my own opinion, the laws in that country is not doing enough to protect them and I feel sorry for the woman. If anyone wants to gamble all his life away then he should by all pleasure do it and not drag someone else in to it...My own contribution...

Just wondering what will he get if he win, another wife?

but really sad that he lost.

Maybe he didn't want his wife any more & thought 'fuck it, I've got nothing to lose here'.


I laughed but this is actually true ;D

that was bad he putting his wife for IPL betting and lost it and i think this guy has become very heavy addicted and that's why he will do anything for gamble and now he have no anything any longer because i'm pretty sure his wife and his families will stay away from him

In Egypt they offer to swap camels for your wife. At least this guy was trying to make money :D
No, seriously I feel for him, he obviously has serious issues to get in a mess like that.

thats also what im thinking mate the guy just throw away his old toy and find a new one, very funny for this thread because how come he can bet his wife.

Strange! Only this time I've heard there is a gambler that risking his wife. This never happened in my country. We could lose all our possessions because of gambling, but not with our wife, our kids etc. Everyone will curse him if he did it here in my county!

Thats really a rare story in which he  stake his wife  on playing gambling which is  very unusual thing and maybe  that person is crazy too much about gambling and didnt even think that he already bet  his wife. I was really shocked with this thing.

Its the first time i heard about this kind of news, really strange and how come it is allowed to put your wife at stake, he literally lost his wife. i think he's crazy or he dont really love his partner because he treat his wife like a toy that can be replace anytime.

strange what? are you mean "weird"?
are you sure if you already checked of each person who lives in your country?
i believe this is happens in all of countries, we just didn't know until someone/people telling us about this

---

His husband is really weird person, she shouldn't married with him. A woman/girl isn't like other things which you can put them in gambling.

what the hell is happening to the world?!!

i though this only happened in porn movies where the guy loses his wife on a bet. i still can not believe that something like that has happened in real life with real human beings.

this is a clear example of a degenerate gambling addict!

addicted gamblers will do anything as long as they could gamble and this time because he has already lost all of his money that's why he decide to putting his wife and i have just read those article that since the first time they were married the husband has very hobbies drunk and gambling and even he almost selling their house for gambling

that guy must be a sick guy which want to let his wife into gambling games. i think we can take this into our lesson, that addicting gamble can sacrifice all of we have even our wife can be be a bet into gambling. so please be careful guys, don't let yourself be into that guys. if not, you will regret it in your life.

That happened in India not in your London, in India I women have to face a lot of challenges to live their lives , they face a lot of problems and are considered as an animal ,you can view a news in below link about the life of females in Inda

http://edition.cnn.com/2013/01/12/world/asia/india-women-challenge/

This is quite a shocking news, indeed. Using his own wife as a betting tool for his self-satisfaction of his greed is unacceptable. I can't believe people would actually go this far in someone's limits.

Want to see pics of the wife.  Second, not being from India,  I don't know what IPL gambling even is.  But this sounds like the whole affair eould be so illegal as to be completely ridiculous anyway.  There's no slavery in India,  right?

True, me myself cant even  believe on this matter  that such person do bet or risk his wife to satisfy his addiction which is  a really crazy thing to do on someones wife.  If  i were that man i would never  risk my beautiful wife to just give into others. lol. There would be a blood first before they got my wife.

i have not heard about this news anywhere else,i even tried google search and about this news but could not find anything else other than the site mentioned, if this is infact true i dont know how these things would pan out,gambling is illegal in india in the first place,may be he gambled in some illegal places and placed these sort of odd bets  ;D , atleast she had the courage to file a police complaint against her abusive husband,it is called progress  ;)

Makes me wonder how long they have been married before he eventually lost her. And what about the reaction of the woman who was treated as a mere material or object that can be gambled away. It is sad to hear that things like these happen in the real world where everyone deserves to be treated fairly. Well, I've heard of stranger things in the past but this is really a step back in the right direction for that man.

In most countries something like this wouldn't even be possible, simply because even when married, a man does not own his wife.

Since you can only gamble with your property, the one who accepted the offer is also out of his mind. Let alone putting a price on your wife, which should be impossible..

LOL, what is the value of the wife, I think the wife is not good looking or has been a problem by the gamblers that is why he use his wife as a bet, but really that is a rare cases and that is what happen when a person is so addicted with gambling. The next thing might happen is he puts his parents as bets in gambling.

Yes it happens. He lost his wife slowly because of his addiction of playing gambling. Maybe he forgot his responsibility to his wife or maybe he lost all the money in gambling without thinking of how they would be able live without money.

yes such kind of cases are mostly happen in countries like India and Pakistan, we have heard about such cases in previous day and it was  very common in previous time,  but now as the people getting education the trend of putting wives in gambling also changed and now you can hear about such cases very rarely.

it is literally bet his wife and it is not fair for the wife i just cant believe that even in this era that kind of a thing still exist i can say that we can possibly lost of wife not because we bet them physically but because of our addiction we will forget our obligation and they will go away and leave us.

LOL, is this for real? And how is this even possible? Has this actually happened before? How do they determine how much the wife is worth? And what do they plan on doing with her after the husband lost her? Also funny in the article that the husband decided to put her up before betting his home.

That indian man is so very addicted on gambling also planning to sell their house for that IPL betting (news). I am just confuse why he put on bet first her wife than their house .
it needs to be brought on a mental hospital to be check up.

In most cases many people especially man forget all obligations ,lose in normal mind only they know is to gamble that's why many man lose her wife and children .this is a serious matter which casino's or betting games have to be work for limitations for the gamblers .

the guy needs some serious counseling and he is mentally retarded even to pull this kind of thing to his family and especially to his women,nobody does that in a sane world

Now just wait on the following article where he will stake some of his kids.  :-\

This is just bizarre.

He might not be in right state of mind, coz if he is, he won't be doing that. Why would you bet your wife in gambling, lucky that his wife find a way to save herself... That might mean that this man doesn't love his woman anymore...  :)

I may hope that his kids are in the custody of the mother after something crazy like this.. I mean, he literally ruined the lives of his whole family with his irrational gambling behaviour.

The guy is clearly not able to even take care of himself, let alone his kids. If he would get custody of his kids, he would probably have them work for his gambling addiction.

I am also finding some psychological disorder in this event, as no one could take that much cruel risk for his gambling addiction. But, when considering the dangerous of gambling addiction one might go beyond this limit too.
They want gambling pleasure at any cost, so they make take any worst decision for the reason of having gambling. Just another chapter of gambling addiction, we must take note of it.

This  is  truly a  psychological disorder for sure since theres no a normal player would  do these  such acts because its  really unusual/rare case  of   risking your wife  just  to satisfy your leisure on gambling.  That man would  really need badly a  rehabilitation since he do already some crazy decision in too much gambling.

That's why you should stay away from gambling. It eats away your soul. You can lose your money and that's nothing. You can always earn in the future. But if you put your future on the table, now that's bad. You can't earn that.

yes this actually happened before because days of yore on mahabharata story there is a king Yudishtira putting his wife Draupadi in gambling against Duryodana and he lost it so nothing impossible in gambling especially for those who became an addicted they wouldn't care for they families as long as they could gamble everyday they will do anything even for some people that's non sense

Yes Bro You are Right Its Really Happens and that's Why I Don't Like Gambling Because If a Person Got Addictied to Gambling Or Sports Betting Then He Doesn't think About What he is Putting as a Stake......
I am Happy If Gambling Would Be Ban Internationally and No One Have Any Rights To Gamble......

and its really hard work to do mate it will make more and more as btc already been use to gamble its really easy for anyone to play it
maybe it is the person responsibility to control and no one can stop it aside from his self.

You will only lose your wife if you put your wife as your bet and whoever do that is crazy unless you hate your wife and you want here gone but if she' beautiful as the Kardasian sisters, I think you are out of your mind. They are worth millions, I guess.

Man, that guy is crazy.. I also thought that he lose his wife/family because of gambling. What the h*ll is he thinking? putting his wife at stake for the sake of gambling.

this is why gambling is also called dangerous games because we can bet everything we have without thinking what will going happen for next if we have get loss. many people don't realize about this and they still gambling and its sadly to hear that a husband make his wife for gambling. its not worth for his life and his family but for now, all thing is happen and that man i think will regret for what he's being done and i hope he can quit from gambling.

People just use the sentence "I'm going to bet my wife on this." whenever they are so sure that they're going to win but this guy literally bet his own wife. Funny how gambling has eaten him up. What will he receive if he wins? Another wife? ;D I don't think so. After reading the article, this is another lesson that you should know everything about the person you're marrying before you marry him/her including the dark part.

Whoah seriously? I mean does it even matter how your wife looks like? I mean that's your wife right there and I feel sick about this news. No one, especially a husband in his right mind, would ever do such sick nonsense for the sake of gambling. And I m also shocked that it was actually allowed to happen. Wow. Just wow.

That is really crazy but how can you actually bet your wife? Even though you can be registered as a married couple, your wife still does not belong to you as she still entitled to her own personal right. So you can just go and hit her as much as you want or harm her. I am quite surprise that the host even accept such bet in the first place.

Gambling is not a bad thing but people just try to overdo it and thus, whatever things when you do it too much, it will end up being bad and you may hurt your loves one. So always treat gambling as a form of entertainment and not blindly trying to chase after your losses.

Terrible story but not that uncommon, as far as I know in the past if you accumulated debts that you could not hope to repay the casino, most likely run by a bunch of bad people, will confiscate a daughter or a wife and they will become basically slaves, I think this was called debt bondage.

I guess that happens to other people as well. Some people becomes so crazy that they bet stuffs that you cannot imagine. That happens but it's not so frequent. I don't think other people will accept a 'wife' as payment. Mostly would accept a house or a property but not a person unless your opponent is human trafficking. The guy in the article is so wrong on so many levels. I hope he gets in jail.

This only happens when a persons gambling really goes out of control. I feel bad for the wife she shouldve just left the guy if that was the case he'll only drag her down with his actions. The man's next plan was to bet their house which really has gone far enough if they lose they'll be living on the streets.

what the hell!
sometimes i find some of the topics on bitcointalk plain disturbing! we hear these things in the stories but they are just stories, hearing it as a news is a lot more different!

I could  say the same thing  because  these  kind of   situations does  really  happen  only   on  stories  but   happening in   real  life  is  really  disturbing and  cant  really believe  it  on the first  place  because   if you have a  normal  mind   you would  not definitely  do this thing which you already risk  your wife   to satisfy  your   gambling  pleasure  or addiction. No man  would   really intend to do that , and  i would never ever do that to risk  the  most   beautiful women in  my whole  life :)

I think in third world countries where the value of females are not better respecting to males and the females right are not specified and the females are not aware with their legal right then it happend and in developed and well educated countries it do not happen and the females are independant like males.

It was an insane man, this is one of the example of severe gambling addiction, he needs a shrink and a very long time in prison, it is already really bad to bet on the wealth but he make it worse by betting human being, but my question is why the bookie accept his wife as a bet? i think the bookie also guilty in this case
and for other gambler, you need to control yourself don't become bankrupt and wasting your life and your loved one because of gambling

but if you have a beautiful and still sexy attracted wife i think gambler will not missed that opportunity to have intimate interaction with your wife i know its crazy but if the guy really addicted possibility to do this is always there.

Yeah that man was severely addicted into gambling .
That's a good question there chief why would they accept as a human on a bet .maybe the reality is the man's wife have a beautiful look. Also maybe that casino's manager not knowing about that betting a human most.probably it is person to person deal.

Well some man can't lose his family ,wife and kids whatever happens but if you're addicted it is so much than drugs. it is impossible to think that he can sell/bet his own wife for the sake of money or gambling.

Yup, I think this is just rumour. I knew that in India when IPL will start there will be massive betting will happen. But think this type of gamblers is not there. This is seriously non-sense. If the gambler is illiterate and uneducated and drunkard then it may be possible otherwise, this news is false.

Sure it’s disturbing but that is the real world for you, the real world can be stranger than fiction, but the truth of the matter is that these kinds of things happen a lot more often than we may think.

That is what happens when you are too addicted. You dont bother how you affect the others but you only care about your gambling. I have knew of some people who gamble so much until they dont bring any money back home for the family, or borrow from loan shark and end up cant pay and commit suicide.

What the f*ck ? When I read this title of the thread I thought it was a joke or an example happened from the past. Wow I am really shocked to hear such things happening even in a very restricting country like India (yes restricting cause you can't kill a cow to eat there). How come this man is still not arrested but have just one case opened against him from the police, also his friends who were harassing his wife should also be put in jail and be considered as guilty as the man who put his wife at stake for gambling. Glad I live in Europe in the end.

In my opinion even in a small type of gambling, once money is lose it could be the source of family problem. It could be a source of misunderstanding between spouses. One can lose a wife because wife will feel tired about money problem. There is always a reason for it. But mostly, the reason of misunderstanding is losing money and gambling is the other reason behind it. There's a scenario regarding on your OP, my friend told me that there's a story related, when the man losses his money in a gambling.The man got no money and had debt on them (3 persons), he set up his wife to be ganked (gang bang) - her wife in their own house just to pay his debt.

That man is crazy how can he do that to her wife,  I guess its only a joke because its really imposibble but when read the article lol its really true. And now I know this man is really conscience to what he done to his wife. But if he does not care to her wife it doesn't matter to him at all. But he must put in jail in that case.

This called addiction and it show how bad gambling can be and bring bad impact on our life, so bad to read this article about the bitter reality of life, that man must be accused and put into jail, that is the reason why gambling is addicted and how it ruin people life.

i have trying to find that this is true story or not but seems it does really happened because a local police has comfirmed that both couple live at Kanpur (Uttar Pradesh) and i think Ravinder Singh's as the husband is the most terrible husband in the world even on the first day of marriage he was took all his wife jewellery to gamble

Off course such things happen everywhere around the world without any exception when people are too addicted to gambling. I saw a man in my neighborhood who lost whole building of 10 apartments in poker at some local casino in matter of minutes. People are too sure of their winning when they take such extreme decisions in gambling.

It's just that girl bad luck that's it. She got a worst husband. This is seriously unbelievable. How can these people bet family members in gambling? I think this guy don't have any feelings of his family members. I heard like people lost billions of assets in a single day. But I never heard of this type of stories this is really horrible. See this is the end stage of gambling.

He bet his wife so the moment he can win in gambling he will purchase another beautiful wife. If I do not like my wife because she's not a good wife, if I have a chance to use her as bet, I would really do. It's a very rare situation but possible.

It seems people are taking Mahabharat as an example where a wife is also considered as a man's wealth. I never heard about this news but since gambling is illegal in India, he must have been arrested already. Such men should be hanged as if you start betting humans, you are sick in your mind. That's why gambling brings you close to death as money can make you do anything in life.

That  gambler  is  definitely  on  jail as of now  because such  act is  not human anymore and   for sure you  have  a  abnormal thinking  already because  no one could  able to do such act  if   you are  on  your  normal  mind or thinkng. Its very  illegal and   already violated the  law  on abusing women for sure.

It is insane, the best description of what the gambling addiction is, lol. Shame on him, he has no woman now 

For real, there are gamblers who use his wife as a pay just to gambler. It happens especially to those who are addicted and very compulsive to win in gambling. Funny it might seem yet it really happens. There are some stories I learned from reality show Pawnstar that the husband gets all of the makeup’s of his wife and sell it to Pawnstar, just to gamble. His wife followed him and requesting a divorce because of what he has done. There are lots of situations like that and we cannot avoid that to happen. Gambling even can ruin a family and a good life.

This sounds like human trafficking and slave trade. Who the hell puts their wife up for a stake or anything near that where it's possible to lose her. But ya I guess in India women are second class citizens the sexist bastards.

You won't hear that sort coming from USA or EU. Not that the USA is any better in regards to the amount of morons about.
