Worst Day of My LIFE - Dice

[smyslov]

Borrowed $1600 from my friend. Apart from this placed gold as collateral and got $250. Altogether with hope of returning the borrowed amount and taking the gold back started to play dice after a long. At the beginning it went good, and when my profit reached $200 started to fail. Once I began to loss I was out of my control. Within minutes everything went out of my control, my mind didn't had the ability to think. I just doubled the bets consecutively. Ended with a loss. Now I was in a situation to repay my friend the borrowed amount. Please don't borrow and spend on gambling, it might give an earning, but that mostly leads to suffering.

I don't know if you are rich to loan such a huge amount but if you can repay that amount in a time frame you both agreed or much earlier, that will be ok but nobody will advise that you take a loan to pay, you should only gamble on your spare money, if you are not that really good in winning gambling don't pour too much on it if I'm your friend I will never give you loan to gamble.

Many stories like this before and maybe you miss those stories which lead you to greediness. We can't play the money that we don't have, in short its better to play small which you can afford to lose than to borrow money and expect that you can win easily. Now you have to work harder and pay your debts, I hope that you learned a lot from that experience and don't worry, you can earn more money if you start correcting yourself.

I also experience it with dice as well but not with a borrowed money, I just use my money and spend it to play, just like you, at first it was good then afterwards I didn't think and concentrate to win but just to return my lose. Then suddenly I just lost everything because I am eager to get back what I lose so I bet all that I have and thinking to make it double but I was wrong.

Gambling with borrowed money, worst thing you can do. You are playing with scared money and start chasing a small loss with high risk.

I did that also a few years ago, gladly with just $100 so losing that wasn't that hard to repay but I discover you play completely different. Just play with the money you could lose otherwise you will be in trouble.

I will always suggest that gambling with borrowed money is something very bad, if a person do not have money for gambling and after that he borrow money and lost it in gambling then just think what will he return to the owner of the money, means that he will be in complete trouble and after that nobody will lend money to him just because nobody will trust him after that.

Correct me if i'm wrong but the worst part from you when decide to starting gambling is you borrowing money and thought can able to get profit from it but this is your biggest fault when you considering gambling to earn money because there is no exact thing in gambling that when you thought all of it according to your predictions then it can be missed anytime depend on the luck which you have

Honestly I am sorry if I sound rude, the OP's question sounds very dumb. Gambling for money is one very wrong thing we all do. Alot of us are aware that gambling is only meant for pleasure and not a way to make money but because we are broke and need means to generate money, we could decide to take the risk and we try as much as we can to be extremely careful.

Going as far as borrowing is the biggest mistake of all time, as though that wasn’t enough, he still went as far he can’t drop gold as collateral, what gave him that confidence in the first place? Well, sorry for the loss is all we can say, but I believe you have learnt in the hard way and I am sure such mistake would never repeat itself again.

Being out of control is the reason why most gamblers end up broke. We should discipline ourselves to skip or pause for a while if we feel like lossing for a period of time.

Good luck gambling with borrowed money, you proved that you cannot be trusted with money as you consider gambling as a way to increase your holding which is the most stupid thing in the world  . Just go out and do a job to earn money and with gambling you will not go anywhere in life, you can gamble for fun and not to make money, if you are lucky you might win some money .

[darewaller]

That's why if you want to gamble, use cold money (my local language) or the more appropriate word is free money (don't borrow or don't even steal for gambling) This is really a bad factor, if we do the above. Because the risk in gambling is huge, if playing gambling with emotion it will lead you to defeat.

I think it is even better to steal that is for those who have the ability to steal than to borrow because stolen money might come like a free money but the thief would be prepared to face the consequences when caught lol.

I am surprised that people still borrow money to gamble considering all the stories we have read on this great forum and all the lessons we have learnt so far, I am indeed shocked to my bones. I feel very sympathetic for the OP but at the same time, I know he is responsible because he is probably too greedy or too confident in his ability forgetting the meaning of gambling. The pain would pass away and the loss would be restored but I hope he learnt his lessons and I hope a lot of people would also learn from his story. Never borrow to gamble is one thing we would always say and will continue to say here.

An any desperate gambler should went though the path which he first loses his own and then someone else's money. Only when with no money and when no one wants to give a new borrow, comes the realization that the wrong way of earnings has been chosen. This road (good gambler) for those who are lucky. You just have to learn a lesson and tell to your friend how it is.

[huige007]

I guess he already read the news about someone who can win a lot of money from dice using the secret method, so he decided to take a loan. Even if that is to pay something, it is not worth to use the money from a loan to play gambling. It is better to use the money to pay something directly, so we don't have to think or regret it because of losing it in the gambling place.

If that's really the reason (believing there is secret method to win in dice) it's mean he already falling to their trap.

The worst is your loss will have domino effect, you not only loss in gambling but also your relationship with the people around you might also be affected. If you fail to pay what you owed can create serious problems not unless if you have the means to pay for it.

Not only their relationship, but about both of their family would get affected too. While his friend wanna use that money later but OP can't pay him on the time since he already lost it and still trying to get it back whatever the way. Lent $1600 to people isn't very easy to get, it seem OP' s friend has really trust OP.

This is the reason why I am highly against gambling. No doubt the experience of having some money for free and that too while you are enjoying some game, is sweet and tempting. But there are only few times when a gambler comes across such winnings in his whole life. Loss of money causes depression and desperation. People eventually lose control over themselves. It is best to stay away from gambling.

This really is a desperate gambler's move, the urge to gamble is so strong that he cannot resist that he has to borrow money from a friend, if it is his birthday and he wants to have a good time, we can accept this, but to the point of making a loan to gamble, this is a symptom, of gambling addict, you will only loan money when you badly need it, or you have a good project ahead and gambling is not a good project.

The fact that you can't control what will happen when you are inside this activities should be noted that borrowing money is not healthy to anyone.
Gamblers needs to act accordingly and it's a must not to use money that you can't afford to lose especially money from lending. It can use more
in many more important things and not to gamble it with luck.

Knowing to set limitations and always keep in mind that risk are high when you are playing gambling so don't be a fool trying to have easy money, there's no reality of doing that only luck will permits you just in-case.

Nice point mate and that’s indeed because people realized when we are in the deepest part of life,when we have nothing but all is trouble that’s the time we can tell our self that this is enough
And we need to take a U-turn to step to find the right way back home
But sometimes we have so hard time to recover from the past mistakes
Don’t stop and just focus things will be for those who wait and dedicated in everything they do

Self discipline plays a very vital role in such scenarios else gambling becomes so much addictive that you cannot stop yourself from keep gambling irrespective of you are winning or losing and people have lost their savings or have played on money which they borrowed from others and also lost that .

[dobolspeed3]

The fatal mistake is borrowing money from others just to fix past defeats. I don't think it's a good idea, you should work and get your money back. So if you decide to play gambling again, that is the right step.

I think that I have once borrowed money to bet and I promised myself I would never do that again, never in my whole life, it was a very wrong decision I made and I have always tried to talk everyone I know never to borrow money to gamble for a game that is a pure game of luck.

Borrowed money has a way of reducing ones self-esteem and also puts fear in the mind of player. The first and only time I borrowed money was the time I had record of the worst losses of my life. I remember that I was scared and I had divided attention, the imagination of what happens when I lose made it happen even faster. It’s such an awkward experience.

I don't get why people are chasing after gambling so much... it's like being told by a stranger "Give me your money and I'll most likely keep them, but you have a slight chance to double them".

Even if you give your money to an algorithm and not a stranger, I wouldn't gamble even with my spare income, let alone with money I don't have.

Thanks for sharing your story though, hopefully it'll help someone realize the dangers.

Indeed, gambling is too risky for us to gamble other's people money. Unlike trading wherein the skill of a broker could be better than a typical normal traders, gambling doesn't give any advantage to anyone. Anyone in gambling has same odds to win and the risk is too high wherein luck dictates who win or lose.

Not only risky if we use borrowed money but risky everytime lol 😂

I like the point thy if OP risked in Trading maybe he don’t lose that big and the chance of gaining is indeed,but I think he is a typical gambling addict that cannot live a day without playing ,because it’s not normal behavior of a person to borrow money and just spent for gambling

I am really sad and quite very displeased with everyone's reaction here about the OP borrowing money to gamble. A lot of us do this often even though everyone is now acting as a saint which is quite unfair to make him feel this bad.

I personally believe everything that has to do with gambling is a risk, which life that we are even leaving is generally a risk on its own  and we must fully understand this even before embarking on the gambling journey. To borrow money is just like taking more risk in order to succeed which could sometimes backfire like it did for the OP and it is only unfortunate for him.

Because gambling gives a big dream to people, they can win big money from the various game. That is why more people who will come to gambling games and use their money to make more money. Whenever they want to gamble, they can play with their money and still try to win the games. We don't have to try to be like them if we want to save our money. Stay away from gambling will be needed, too, because that is the way to prevent the loss of the money. We can share this story with other people so they can think about their goodness.

[hahay]

The mistake is borrowing is too high so you basically have been greedy at the beginning even before gambling starts, so I don't think it's surprising you lost everything. Remember, we intend to gamble and try to play with money that can be spent, even though it is money from loans, so when you borrow money only deservedly in the sense of not being greedy to spend in gambling, then at least you can play with discipline. I also experienced something like this but I was not greedy in taking out loans and in the end I was even able to repay loans faster than promised.
