Sometimes enough is enough

[crwth]

Definitely one heck of a night. I haven’t experienced that type of gambling where you would go drunk and just spend a lot of money just to get back and even selling your brand new phone just to get it back. I agree with the conclusion at the end of the story where you should just go home when you feel tilted and never force it.

This is what the addiction or the greediness do to you and you understand it later when the you have lost it all. If you have lose some money it is fine but don't play another to recover it because in that case you will be playing till you recover it and which may not happen always.

Even me as a reader it makes my heart beat faster, thank god my country is banned casino here so i never experienced that. I only gambling at online casino, once i busted then busted, no more deposit. Never chase your loss like that, once you lose all, no one will care.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, or something like that. How ever it is, hold to it. This story is like from some movie, or it can become movie one day.
I think it's hard to control yourself in such moments where old friends are around, a lot of alcohol, some weed, ans other things. Things gone wild and we don't even notice that moment when change comes.
Be happy because in the end you took some money back, you had great night, and learn something from this experience if you can. I never go that far, but I had crazy nights with a less tribulations and in the end I feel a bit shame for all that has been done, but I survived and after some time that becomes good story.

Probably the casino owners care because they just got money from you and is not going to feel anything about you. It's good that you still get to gamble online but wouldn't that still be in the restriction of your country or something? Good luck on your future gamblings (if you still do)

I do not have anything as bad as this when it happened but when I look back on it at hindsight I have even worse.
I had about 2.2 bitcoin lost on gambling at one sit down but it was years ago when bitcoin didn't worth this much. I felt bad than but not horribly like if it happened today.

Now, that I look back on it of course 2.2 bitcoin is horrible however I didn't know that back than. I knew bitcoin would be big tho, so I should have put that money aside instead of gambling with it.

Lol. Nothing good ever comes out of getting yourself drunk most especially when it's about money. Those would be nights that'll knock you off again when you look back the morning after. Don't combine alcohol and gambling.

Usually broke people live in this kind of situation, we cannot blame them to feel like that but its really not good for them at the end of the day. Your friends should not tolerate that kind of addiction. Don't gamble when you're drunk cause you might do things that is beyond on your control. Control that greed, know how to be more responsible to yourself.

If you are a true degenerate, than you are definitely familiar with the concept of “burning out” when it comes to gambling. We’ve all been there before, but for some of us the experiences are much more eye opening than for others. This is a tale about a time where wagered amounts that were way beyond what anyone would consider an “acceptable” gambling budget based on the amount of money I had at the time. Nevertheless, I will begin by telling you that sometimes you are just forced to go to a casino because that’s where your friends just so happen to be meeting up.

This is a story of one of those nights. This is a tale of a complete and utter degenerate gambling night, one in which there was lots of beer, coffee, comp meals, and visits to the ATM involved.

It's a very nice read with good wording and unexpected plot twists. Also I found this ad to be pretty smart and innovative, if I may say so. Here it is. It's not everyday you can see this kind of a clickable ad:

Casinos too degenerate for you? Find the next 500x shitcoin

In the story itself I enjoyed the most the main character's approach to the "Lucky numbers", which is closely related to my own view of them:

"... I place them on red and wait for all of the other people around me to complete their fucking bets that are on their numbers and other superstitious bullshit."

This is exactly how I think of the lucky numbers too, but ... anything can happen in a casino. Later that night, our gambler decided  to "put $40 straight up on 23" because he "was wearing some brand new Air Jordan shoes at the time and they had the number “23” on them in a lot of different places." You better read yourself about what happened next, I don't want to spoil it for you.

In the situation like this, self control is all that is needed. Don't get hooked on to something which will lead to a definite loss. Sometimes gambling is good and sometimes this will lead to a loss. So when you feel like lossing so much of your money, you have to calm yourself and say stop for a while and recover those losses.

Great story. When I was reading it I thought he wasn't going to make it. It was like from bad to worse every time until he finally won.
I'm not dedicated like him and would call it quits before that uber trip. You know that you're addicted when you wake up the next day with a hangover, no money and no phone.

Right.Self panic will only cause you more harm and even lead you to a much losses in life.Gambling is good if you know how to handle and control your emotions.But if you let your emotions all come out,i'm sure it will only make you desperate in the end.Sometimes we should let our minds first overcome with what our hearst felt.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Don't go to the ATM. If you don't have the self control to not do that, then leave your bank cards at home. Go out gambling with a set amount of hard cash - if you run out of cash, and have no bank cards on you, then you have no option but to go home.

Yeah, no kidding.  It's like if you have a drinking problem and wind up drinking more than what you withdrew from the ATM and went to a bar because that's where your friends are.  Once you realize you have a problem, self-control goes right out the window and there's no going back to normal drinking--or gambling.  I think gambling is just as bad or worse than any alcohol problem, as it drains your bank accounts faster than a bottle ever will, plus it strains relationships with family and friends to the point where they can easily be ruined.

This guy went to a casino, but I think crypto gambling is in some ways even worse.  Games can be very high-speed, and there's no one watching you.  You can gamble on your smartphone in your bathroom if you so choose.  The amount of degenerate gamblers on bitcointalk is staggering--I've read so many stories of ruin here, it's unbelievable.  These crypto dice sites have got to be making fortunes.

The problem is people do not understand how much is enough and when to stop greed is a bitch, but I believe everyone should be able to control it rather than hide behind it. I believe everything can be done in a reasonable manner and it can be healthy just what is a reasonable manner depends on person to person. I think it's high time people take responsibility for their actions.

yes, I agree with you. people still chasing their winning money without knowing that actually, they are winning much money. they never satisfied with what they can get in gambling and this makes them continue the game. it is natural since we are human and want to get bigger from something but if we don't know about the risk behind that, then they need to be prepared to get what they did.

indeed it is a cycle of gambling and as gamblers we already know that the cycle is indeed going through and how to anticipate play wisely jangn wear emotions, and when we experience the cycle be patient because if one step you will not be able to control yourself and it will hurt you.

the principle of playing gambling if you do not want this bad thing to happen it must be done, the defeat that continues to be overwritten should be terminated by stopping whether you will stop for a moment or forever it helped you, a very good article.

Really well written article, got my interest right till the end.
What I don't understand is that he bets big parts of his bankroll in single bets.

I mean he started with 500 dollars the first time and places more than 50 dollars on his first bet, playing blackjack.

set out 2 $25 spots and a $1 dealer bet on each hand, as well as my one and only attempt at the lucky ladies bonus which was a $5 chip and a $1 dealer bet on the bonus spot. Consider it my degenerate ritual when it comes to playing blackjack.

No wonder he's always going back to the ATM, when he hardly has any play time due to his large bet sizes.

Actually more people really seeks for better lucky winnings, and that expectations always frustrates. You won't even control them in a sense that betting has no satisfaction over their addictions. Generally it made a person more binded on their habits, rather than quitting from the current attitude. It became a personality if you can't control yourself, because the disease is not just physical but also includes emotional.

There is a saying in my local language that says "that show me your friends and i will show you your character" and i believe that it goes perfectly with what you are implying because if you friends are always at the casino gambling then it will eventually become your place of socializing and whiles you all meet there, you are going to end up gambling there because that's what you go there to do.

This is why addiction is a problem. When people are addicted, they have no control of themselves. All rational thought goes out of the door. I don't think that it's natural or human nature to continuously seek for pleasure. That's the problem with pleasure seekers -- it's like nothing ever satisfies them anymore. The law of marginal utility should be applicable however with people suffering addiction it seems like there's no end to it. It only worsens as these people seek to satisfy their thirst for pleasure.
