Problem: Lost today $2000 on PrimeDice

[michellee]

Phew buddy. That's a pretty awful Christmas story and I'm sad to hear it.

Just FYI, $50 isn't a "small bet." 100 satoshis is a small bet.

I would definitely place you in the "high roller" category, though I know not everybody feels the same.

Sounds like you're addicted to the thrill, may want to lay off it for a while. By your descriptions of things I'd say its probably not the end of the road for you. So keep your chin up.

And consider taking up drinking, its far less expensive!

It might also would have been better to put all his $2000 on an altcoin hehehe. Most of them are on a very low discount and might easily give him a 10x return if he is patient enough hehehe.

Yes, I am sure he can make a lot of money from the altcoin. He can get various coins with the low price, and he also has a chance to sell when it is rising. But it's already happening, and he cannot turn back to get his money. Let's face it and remind in your mind that playing gambling is too dangerous.

All started when i deposit $300 today and start with small best $50 $60 etc
I always play for %50-60% chance. i had nice luck and turned it into $500 .thenI was thinking I'm  unbeatable and bet %70 chance on $500
and made around $840

Then i was planning to do the last bet and bet and I bet %70 on my $840 balance and lost everything. :/

After i was in real down but i was still positive cause i had $1200 on my Bitcoin wallet.

I wanted to make big profit and get back all the lost and never play again.

 and did it %50 chance on $1200 balance and lost everything :/

what a shitty die i want to die :/

There is no need of you go into gambling or betting if you know you will be afraid of losing.  Betting is a very risky venture and there is no need of you starting it if you not ready for any outcome because it is base on luck and not your intelligence or skills.  Remember that investors will lose and make money and since your has gone worst there is no need of you die or commit suicide.

Yes,when someone thinks that they can win continuously in gambling then they will get this kind of feeling about suicide when they are in loss.

I am never afraid to lose my money since I know how to earn money again,losing money is not a big thing when you know how to do it.

[SportbetMaster]

the most common things that make a person addicted to gambling are:

1- don't be satisfied with the small gain and try to earn more in short times.
2- don't accept losing part of your money and try to
recover your lost even playing larger amount than your initial losses.

the best thing OP should have done was to withdraw his original deposite after making a gain of almost 120% and play with profit without risk of losing. but luck took another course and did that OP lose all his money.

You want to die? With just money you want to kill yourself? That's not the answer to any problem we have encountered. Yes it's devastating to loss that amount but at least you have learned your lesson with regards to gambling, that you will never always win and you have to do another strategy to win.

[eternalgloom]

I would highly suggest seeking professional help for your gambling addiction.
You have a real problem when you spend that amount of money and can't control yourself.

Casual gamblers don't spend more than they're willing to lose, so you don't fit into that category any more.

Here's some information about gambling addiction, I really suggest taking a look:

You may advice anything easily but when you are gambling and feeling the heat of uncertainty, definitely you cannot take the decision of stopping after some profits. I'm not shocked on seeing what OP has done as this will be the result when a gambler is going without any control on their emotions.

I am just worrying how many people are going to fall like this due to gambling and its dangers. There should be some initiative for this so that gamblers will not losing like this.

This is the result when you continue to chase what you have loss and if you don’t know how to control yourself. Gambling works on this way, you will win in first but in the long run your money will slowly gone until you lose everything. We should know when to stop in gambling, it doesn’t mean that you win some, you will win everything.

[Joca97]

Been there done that sir,you cant really stop unless you make a serious goal
Even when you make a serious goal you need to withdraw it to fiat so you dont gamble it
And have a little to play with

The problem is always the last bet it always losses

But you will recover soon like all of us do

Well, because it is based on luck and not intelligent skills this is why so many people are into it. If gambling was about to study a lot and learn things and develop skills then none would ever play. This is why people are lazy to do so. I agree that he shouldn't bet so much that he couldn't afford. Committing suicide or dying would not make things better. OP should try to find support and fight against his addiction otherwise there is a high possibility to do it again.

I don't understand what people are thinking while gambling. I mean of course you would lose your money gambling, that is what casinos are for. They are not there so they could give away free money to everyone, do you really think people start a new casino so they could share their wealth with you, do you really think that is how casinos work ? They are there to make money and the most legal way of getting free money from people.

They literally tell you that they will take your money, there is a house edge on every single game and they make profits on that house edge all the time and everyone knows about this but yet again everyone gambles knowing about the house edge but somehow some people think "not me, I am lucky" or something and go against the house edge thinking they can beat it. Math will never be wrong and you will always lose. House always wins, don't forget about that.

Oh well, hear it from one of the expert, recovering from this mismanage decisions can be carried away by dedications to accept the fact, you can't hold this stressful failure, it's just money and what is important, you still have your life to live and you can correct those mistakes you just need to move on and try harder to keep it away from your mind, keep yourself busy try to catch up with your love ones or with your friends.

[FaucetKING]

Hey there mate, i'm really sorry for your lost and as bitcoin talk folks have said, it's a quite bad event happening this time of the year.
Just wanted to say that even me, if i were in your position i'd want to do the same but turning 300 usd into 800 is quite good, the case isn't about feeling the joy and trying to collect more.. nope, you should really consider changing your behaviour because that "greed" is the thing taking you down.
Consider taking less profits and spending them somewhere before gaming for a second profit.. don't let greed controle your brain.

[izanagi narukami]

Man, I know how's that fell, when you're desperate and loss.
But man, I must remind you that you're already aware the risk of gambling , the loss probability is higher than winning so just brace yourself and take it as a man !

~This may the God's sign to stop gambling

this is not an advice for op or any other one else, I also lived what op has subited but with more higher amount than what mentioned in this topic and i also know that it's so hard to control emotion when feeling of win take all our brain.

I just want it to be a lesson for other people who will have the chance to read this topic and don't make the same mistakes that others have done before, and I'm pretty sure that  this is the only reason why op shared his experience with us.

Hey I'm feeling sorry for your loss, but I feel it's your greed to be blamed you were way ahead an you should have quit. This is a common mistake we gamblers make after loosing, we put in more funds to recover but we end up loosing that too. I know this is hard for you, but don't give up now, give yourself some time and figure everything out and remember only gamble what you can afford to loose never more than that.

Many people would fall if they cannot control their emotions, and many of them will lose money on gambling games. But it will not happen to all gamblers especially if they know that playing gambling is only gives a bad effect to their money because they will lose more and more money. The initiative tp solve the problem should come from the gamblers itself, and if they don't do anything, then they need to prepare to get lost much money.

Typical beginner mistake.

Starting small, winning a little, losing and chasing your losses by making bigger deposits, typical path to bankrupt.

Your biggest mistake here was to take some money from your Bitcoin assets and deposit with it. Anyway there should be a clear separation between fun and addiction, this is the first step to addiction. Try to forget about it and be wiser next time.

Yes, nothing new. We have heard this kind of stories more than hundred times within this forum still I wonder why new gamblers are not ready to learn some lessons from others experience but still risking their hard earned money and their life too.

You are suggesting him to try next time after learning some lessons from his own mistakes. But, I like to suggest him to stay away from gambling hereafter. At least, he will find a decent life outside the gambling which will be definitely happier than what he could get from gambling.

Don't think about it too much. People make mistakes and those are the things that help us grow in the end. It's not a good thing to say things that you want to die just because of a mistake. Maybe the best thing to do is move forward and move on. The important thing is you need to make sure that you learned from it, not repeating it.

Anyway, I have somewhat a similar experience towards that. I have won a large amount in a contest in BitVest and I was really luck towards it and I had made similar bets. In the end, I have seen that the feeling of winning makes you feel invincible and you want to continue but that is also what destroys you.

We shouldn't be greedy, we all should know that.

That’s right, don’t focus so much on what you have done because there’s always an opportunty to regain that loss, and ending your life is not a good idea. Learning from this painful experience can make you a better person in the future. Give yourself a time to recover, don’t be greedy again and stop your gambling activities for now.
