How much BTC have you gambled?

[CoinTasker]

For starters, I don't do much online gambling, but I do promote most of the BTC casinos and play with bonuses for fun. I recently got a no deposit bonus and am playing around when I see another player making bets of 20 BTC at a time. This specific player has been making consecutive 20 BTC bets for awhile now. Obviously he wins some and he loses some, but most of them are losses. What I can't wrap my head around is why in the world would anyone with this much disposable BTC be gambling it away on a online casino. I understand people have gambling problems, bet wow, I can't even imagine having this much BTC to just gamble away. I can think of a thousand things I'd rather be doing with that money, one of them simply being saving it.

So my question for you guys is, do any of you gamble like this? Do any of you have these kinds of funds, and if so, why are you still gambling?

[NorrisK]

I personally never gamble like that, nor do I have the funds to do this. Obviously he is not losing more than he is winning, else he wouldn't keep doing this for so long. He is probably close to break even, losing mainly the house edge.

He may be an early adopter with a huge stash laying around not even realizing anymore how much his bets are worth. Could also be a rich guy with a huge bankroll. You see them in casinos as well, making huge bets without blinking twice.

I've seen similar players just gambling like 100 BTC per day on slots for example, trying to get the progressive jackpot on Bitcoinvideocasino.
One high stakes player once said in chat that he had won a progressive jackpot of over 1000 BTC somewhere and that he was gambling almost every day after that.
Pretty crazy to think he might have lost it by now, this was about a year ago btw.

I think I've gambled around 4 or 5 Bitcoin in total over the last 3 years.

I've gambled around 20 BTC on PD, I use it mainly to socialise and chat though. I don't gamble for a living.

I don't know exactly how much I've gambled but I can say one thing - TOO MUCH

[LeonBlack222]

I play poker and have gambled lots but luckily I've won more than I lost!

[DeathAngel]

Probably gambled around 1 - 2 bitcoin. I've won some but lost more I guess over the 18 months or so I've been gambling with bitcoin.

[EngineeringMechanics]

I've probably lost 8 BTC gambling over the last 1.5 years

Its just waste your time for 1.5 years dude. 8 btc is not small amount.
are you want to stop.

myself have wager around 0.04 btc. its small amount

[Superhitech]

I play mostly for fun, so I haven't wagered much, maybe around 0.05 BTC.

[jonathgb25]

Maybe 0.05 BTC but it did not came from me, it came from the free faucet of primedice and I wagered it and lost. It is so much fun when you bet the coins that you did not spent a single satoshi.

I too mostly gamble only for fun and some times only. I bet mostly on sports and my favourite game is cricket. So for I made over 2BTC from cricket betting. I will choose only certain matches to bet and never bet on all games so my winnings are more than loses.

[adaseb]

There is actually a thread exactly like this a few posts back.

But to answer your question, I probably lost less than 0.50 BTC, I only do it for fun.

If you know cricket teams strengths than some matches very easy to guess and make some good money but only some times results will change otherwise mostly we can win. As you said we should bet on all cricket matches instead need to chose some good and easy one to bet.

[raaajlucky]

I made over 1BTC from sports betting and I don't play any other games in gambling.

[KingOfBet]

gambling is cool!
i like slots. and can spend 1btc every month

[iwasneverhere]

I have at least gambled around 5 BTC in the last year. Was easier to lose when 1 BTC was 200 USD. Not so much now.

[lite]

I don't remember exactly how much i have wagered, but i think it should be above 100 bitcoins. no crazy bets though all small bets.
