Have you ever looked at how much you have wagered with a hanging mouth? :P

[dothebeats]

I did, and I'm not proud of it, though it's nothing close to what you degenerates here have wasted on gambling. I'm more of a parlay guy and I just chuck in my $10 at most on a local sportsbook or online and just hope for the best. The largest I got off of a parlay was $3240 from a 14-leg NBA game in season 2017-2018. Idk how the hell did I managed to hit that but the next thing I know is I'm buying one of the most expensive drink on a local pub basking on the silence of my victory.

[mu_enrico]

but here I have wasted it all on different gambling sites without profits or hope of getting back.

This is a wrong mindset, IMO Gambling is not about profit.

so please ignore all this this breakdown and calculations you are doing and focus on looking exactly at what you have done with gambling , the reason you have wasted so much money and the last question to be asked, if it’s truly worth it?

You "waste" money for different reasons, one of which is for entertainment purpose, such as watching movies, buying high-speed internet plan, and many more. I consider gambling is a form of entertainment for those who prefer adrenaline rush.

For me, it is worth a few bucks every weekend, no more than that.

the most important thing is the pleasure and benefits that you get, it's useless to make big wagered but you're not get profit or not enjoying it

Nice, gambling responsibly mate.

Its better never to look it

Contrarily, it is very important to look at it and have a gambling self-assessment. I think this would let you know if you have been doing well and if not, to find the way out or to think of new strategies to improving in gambling. I tried this and felt awkward on how poorly I have been gambling and this is helping me device new ways I could improve in this gambling industry

Although it can be devastating when we find out we have really lost but the consolation is the fun we had playing. That’s how I encouraged myself because I felt ashamed seeing on that had gone on the game but I realized the fun was okay for the money. If I didn’t play or loose, I believe the money would have still gone for other less important things.

Glad i never see how much i wager, because sometime what i play in 99 dice i create new id to refresh my bet. Don't know it is rumors or not but some people said that not really good to keep use 1 account in dice gambling site.

Indeed. The probably fair ot an account in dice game tends to be more favorable for a new accoint in my opinion. This is what I observed while playing it that's why I keep changing my probably fair atleast once a week. It somehow works to me but when it doesn't, I just tend to create another account believing that it will bring me more luck.

I have quit gambling now.

However, when I look at the wager amount of my accounts in various sites and add them up, a total of 15 BTC comes up!

That's around $150000= 10,500,000 INR ! Around 1 crore Rupees or 0.15 million dollars!

I know it's easy to reach that wager since wager counts all bets even on 99% chance wins so if someone with 1 BTC wagers 20 times on 99% win chance and win all, they will wager 20 BTC!

But still to think I have wagered that much amount leaves me with a open mouth sometimes. Overall I'm in loss tho xD

I've always used really small amounts of btc to bet so I never had any big wager amounts.
It's pretty normal if you are loss after consistent gambling on dice sites or sports betting platforms.
The more you play,the more you lose,but if you have enough money(which you can afford to lose) and you do it for fun,it's OK to gamble.

But not all gamblers can realize that, and they only think to continue to gamble and lose more money. The more money you used, the bigger money you will wager, but that is not wise to use bigger money to play gambling and don't bet with bigger money if you don't want to see a big loss. It is better to use small amounts of btc to play so we don't think about how big the wager amounts.

[Becky666]

Am not seeing the reason why I should know how much I waged on gambling because that could be a source of discouragement in the gambler's life. Personally, I am not too good in remembering the past as remembering them will keep me in pains.
Much as I know that am winning while wagged, am okay with the profits that come alongside with it period.

[FanEagle]

I only gamble with amounts that I can afford to lose on a week by week basis but around a year ago I looked at my profit/loss on my Paddy Power betting account & I can tell you it was not pretty viewing

If we are all to compare the profit/losses on gambling and then decide if we are playing by that then we will no longer have gamblers aside those who have won big money. Gambling has not been favorable to over 85% of its players for no reasons, I think majority of us playing are only doing it for entertainment.

If profit making is really the essence of gambling, then it’s obvious there are more losers. I started gambling because I saw it as an avenue to make money but weeks into the game, I realized it’s never possible because each time I do my game assessment, I discover what is lost is much more than what is gained. Then I made up my mind to only play for the entertainment and this is what I have been doing.

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

Using 99% chance of win is a terrible strategy imo.
Because if you lose, you lose all. And if you win you get almost nothing .
Anyway, I believe that unless you are very lucky, every strategy is going to lead you to a loss someday

And also a 99% chance is not always my win, too, loss in row with 99% doesn't make sense, but that's the truth. sometimes I think whether the system gambling is like the system has been prepared to make profits for their website or pure depends on dependence. but the chance of 99% for most likely gambling will lose everything and earn nothing.

[sana54210]

In my opinion, regardless the strategy used on whatever sites, looking back at the amount wagered will always leave players with a hanging mouth, so please ignore all this this breakdown and calculations you are doing and focus on looking exactly at what you have done with gambling , the reason you have wasted so much money and the last question to be asked, if it’s truly worth it?

I have done this for some days now and have really noticed that I have wasted a lot of money and I don’t think it’s worth it. Although I had fun playing but this money could have done very well in the lives of some people. I try to imagine how much lives over 8BTC could have changed, how many school fees it could have paid for the less privileged, but here I have wasted it all on different gambling sites without profits or hope of getting back.

Point of correction please, not all players regret the money they have spent on gambling, no matter the amount. I feel those with dropping jaws are players who have not been following the number one rule of gambling which is never gamble what you cannot afford to lose. If this has been your guide, then irrespective of the amount you see, you would not consider it an amount that could have done other thing.

After all, if you are to look back at all the expenses you have  made so far on clothing, drinks and even ladies for those of us that do that, we would realize its  more the amount used in gambling. For me, no amount spent on gambling is a waste. And I will say that it’s completely worth it because I had fun for the times I played and I can say that I got value for my money.

Using the amount you have wagered can be very deceiving especially if you play with those kind of odds, it is way better to try to determine how much money you have deposited in the casinos over the time period in which you were a gambler, anyway now that you have quit gambling it is important that you find another hobby and if possible you should find one that does not require to spend any of your bitcoin, after all we do not know when it could skyrocket and change your life in the process.

I agree with you. A lot of people usually like to see how someone won a jackpot and quick to sing how lucky he is without even taking time to understand how much he must have wagered or lost before winning such huge amount. Another factor to consider is that, the amount you have wagered most time does not means the amount you have lost rather its the amount staked which could have come back to you when you win or lost when you fail to win. The most important factor is your net position if you in a serious red, then you are probably in the wrong line of trade and focus should be diverted somewhere else.

[Reatim]

Nope because never in my vocabulary that I need to check my losses whe I cannot just ignore it and continue my journey anyway there’s no sense in doing such

Though sometimes I am figuring those in my mind specially when time comes that I am broke and no enough money to play.but ofcourse it’s just because I am bored and nothing to spend with to play

I waggered over 2 or 3 bitcoin but i think put a 99% winning chance is a high risk and can lose all if a bad series comes but maybe some people win with this strategy, but if lose a lot on gambling people should stop it because this can affect them.

Really!?well if that’s what you’ve said the I will just believe it lol.3 Bitcoin is a big amount this days not unless you are like OP who had accumulate his bitcoin when it was very cheap

I don't want to make those calculations for my losses!
Probably I would fall in depression after that as I would think so many things that I would do with that money If I haven't gambled them in the casinos.
I know that I am in Loss as you do, but it is better not to know the amount...

[DoublerHunter]

I never look back my losses because I know it gives a headache to me lol. Seriously, I never calculate my loss because I know I am wagering more than 1 bitcoin and that is a huge amount at these days. For me, as long as it gives and entertainment and I enjoy my fund to wager without calculation of losing fund. These words always bearing in my mind that only gamble what you can afford and when we are talking of losses more than a whole number of bitcoin that is already a big amount.

Sometimes if we know how much we losses can make us stress, depression, feeling bad, and we want to recover the losses by playing gambling more and more. And if we are in those conditions, I guess we cannot control ourselves to prevent more losses because all we think is about how to recover the losses and we can get back the money. We will think that ouch I spend too much money on gambling, I will try to get my money back, and I will play for some round. But if we have a strong control for ourselves, we will not think like that, and we will let it go because that is the risk in the gambling game.

Strong control is admitting that you have a gambling addiction in the first place. Gambling addicts like to justify their losses when it reality there is nothing to justify their losses but themselves and their addiction.

Even myself i never tried calculating all my losses because for sure i have lose too much more than the amount i won.The fact that i'm into gambling i have already set my mind that i may lose in just a minute or win either.So we should only gamble on the amount intended for gambling only to avoid regrets and frustrations in the end.

Its just a big stress if you think about your losses and you will just regret those days, its really not good. I also lose money but I don't care anymore because for sure that time I enjoy playing and I know that money is just a free money for me. If you gamble you must forget that its your money because it can lose anytime.

[Moiyah]

Whenever I looked back at my wagered, I almost choke. Jome, but kidding aside. I have so much total wagered that I can not imagined I have almost reached 1btc though. And the reality sucks that my profits is just too small and I can count on my fingers how many times did I just payout. Anyway, this is gambling. Accept the fact that this is the consequences of gambling

That's the reality of gambling. You don't realize you just lose more compared to what you win. You just think of the prize or profit if you will win. Gambling is just all about luck and people shouldn't treat it to earn extra money but as an entertainment only.
