Have anyone tried to stop gamblers from losing while they keep on wagering.

[lienfaye]

I've been into gambling for a long, my major focus was on sports betting. From sports betting earned good, but I wasn't able to make the success continue. I lost out of greed, further my focus turned towards casinos where we get the instant results and doesn't want to wait as we wait on sports betting till a match gets over. By this time I was entirely new to it, and lost big. If someone have contacted me I could've stopped it for a while and lowered my loses.

Recently while playing dice, I saw a person who was wagering with large funds to recover the loss. By the time he has lost part of what I have lost. I texted him my experience, and suggested to stop it before things go out of his hands. He didn't responded, finally he lost everything. Have any of you got such experience.

Though your intention is good to stop him from further losses, he might misinterpret your words because we know if you're eager to win to chase back your losses you will bet anything that has left to recover it back. You're speaking base on your experience because you know the feeling of losing the money and if ever somoeone stop you it might not happen. But this is not the case for other gamblers especially if he is in the situation wherein he is prepared to win or lose all his money.

Stopping them while they are in the session, why should I? And we should stay away on that.

You are not really helping that person even your intention is good. Why not just wait until the result.

And besides, what if they are ready on what will happen and already accept what will be the result, we can't just enter the scene and say "STOP". Inside the gambling world, we should stay away at these gamblers so they are the focus on what they are doing. If you really care, talk to them instead later after the session.

What you've said is right, I could've spoken to him after he ended. He has lost everything during the session, what to talk further, by the time he'll be complete frustration of losing big. As said in gambling we should not interrupt, they'll be playing with complete focus and the words of us might deviate and by the time something worse happens the blame will be on our heads.

i never did stopping anyone from gambling since i have no chance to do it,but what happens is I was the one who's being stopped by my Girlfriend from losing streak,i once bring here in casino just to have fun,and while she was sneaking around the place (since that was her first time to enter a Live casino she was so amazed) i was playing and losing until she comes back to me and asked how much i already lose and when i replied she was shocked(because i already lose good amount)and take me out the casino right away and Go home.so i was stopped lol

It is impossible to stop strangers. They simply won’t listen to you. With friends it should be easier. But it is possible that they will not even listen to you. Because at this moment people do not give an account of their actions.

We actually can't simply change their minds and force them to listen to us. They are old enough (as I think) and they know how much is the risk in doing wagering but they'ed try to ignore us. They have their own mindset, what they believe is right and good for them. We also care ourself and not to blame at the end which is good if we set them free and learn from their mistakes sooner or later.

I think that when we go to the casino with friends, then the main goal should not be to win, but to have fun. Otherwise, it is better to stay at home and play online so that no one can interfere with focusing on the game.

I did warn a friend about not to continue wagering to avoid losses but it's not that I stopped him because I know he will misunderstood it. Stopping a gambler not to continue betting is very hard because they might not see it on a bad light and instead you will only look like a bad person to them. Thus, it is better to give them a warning and if they won't listen then let them learn it the hard way.

specially when they are in losing situation because all they wanna do is to win back the losses and make a triumphant outcome.

things that usually turns worst and will end up losing all that they have.

i tried once to approach someone i know to stop playing for a while because of his countless losses but when he turns to me?angry face so i go back my place and leave him on the table lol

Sounds a good plan but you cant get rid of your mind the eagerness to win while having fun with your friends in the casino. It will be most likely the main goal is to win while having fun. Nothing's more fun than gambling with friends because you have someone to talk to win you are winning or losing.

maybe its better to say Both?to have fun and to win at the same time?because in gambling this is very possible since the enjoyment while betting can bring winning at the same time.

whenever i go to casino's i make sure that my mind is set to have fun but in the back of it ,the winning is what mind dictates so what i do is find happiness but with positive mindset to attract luck to have much bigger chance of winning

In fact, free alcohol can work wonders) And the amount of drink with friends can adversely affect decision-making in the game. Therefore, you need to separate the game and entertainment.

[jhonjhon]

If it’s someone I know personally, I would have told them to stop, but if it’s not then I’m gonna mind my own business and just watch their world burn in front of their eyes. The shittiest thing to do is to interrupt someone trying to recoup their losses and clinging on that ray of hope that they’re going to win, and you might get punched in the face for being so nosey even if you’re just being concerned. Looking out for a homie is a good thing, but to gambling degenerates, it will be taken as something negative and will net negative reactions for sure.

It would be safer to mind your own business regardless if it is a friend or not because I think if they are so into the wagering they won't listen anyway, despite your warnings they will still go ahead and do it so let them be besides they will learn their lesson once they lost the money. It's not that I don't care but gamblers don't have the sanest mind at times so they might see you as someone stopping their happiness so just do your thing and mind your own business.

[RealMalatesta]

It is difficult to convince a gambler when he is losing. Everyone hopes for luck next time, but most will lose everything else.
Previously I had a similar situation, I deposited money into the freebitco.in and bet. When my losing streak started I couldn't stop. I tried to hope that I would win the next bet, but that didn't happen and I lost all my money.
If someone does not have the necessary patience, perhaps they should not be involved in gambling.

I have learnt to always remember an African parable that says " a Dog destined to die does not listen to the owners call" this is a great reminder whenever I see any player, rather than advising them to quit or to withdraw from playing,it’s better to watch and see the outcome of the game.

The worst and most painful thing is to advise someone against their wish and if the game later turns to be favorable, they would hold the adviser accountable and feel bad because of what they would have gained. It’s just better to leave people to play their games. Those who will lose will surely learn from their mistake. I was in a casino center last week and a guy was advised not to participate in one of the games but he disagreed and went ahead but shortly he lost all his money. I believe that guy will always listen whenever he’s been advised.

[PryptoMontreal]

Well it was a nice try no doubt. But sadly, most people blided in gambling would refuse to acknowledge such risks and would still continue to do so. Well, there are also some that have a planned expense and you never know when that bet was actually all planned by him.

Honwstly though, betting ks supposed to be more than for fun. Losing a lot could make it a tough experience though.

And honestly people learn the things only when they loose something before that if you keep on giving advise to these people than many of them will even disrespect you and will say, what you need to do with that.
And why don't we mind our business. So, according to me we should do our responsibility and than move away, if they want to understand than they will understand in one go otherwise no use of banging your head against a wall.

[barbara44]

It's practically impossible to convince somebody to stop while they're mid-way through losing their entire stack.

You stand a much better chance telling somebody to quit while they're ahead, rather than stop before you get completely rekt.

Personally, I just let them get on with it. If they've got the money to lose, let them play.

I strongly agree with this comment. It's complicated (and risky) to stop them. I think the correct move is not to lend them any money if they ask.
If somewhat you can stop them in a losing streak, and they see that the next bet is a win, then you'll receive the blame.

It's similar to trading. It doesn't matter whether your advice is good or bad, if they win, you'll get nothing, but if they lose, you'll get all the blame.

For me, I would rather advice the player and save him from losing. I had this exact experience some time ago, I understood the game perfectly and I knew any next trial would lead to loses. Then I advised a guy to stay off but he disobeyed and played, unlucky for me, he won and saw me as an enemy that tried standing as a stumbling block.

I didn't feel very good about that experience and I wished I didn't say a word but as fate would have it, he tried again and I stood my ground to advise him not to play. Again he disagreed and this time he lost everything including that which he won in the first place. Ideally, it’s better not to advise people but in my religion, it is wrong to see a brother making mistake and staying mute.

Trying to stop unknown people is hard, especially with gamblers. Like you said, why would they even pay attention to any of our words. Moreover, when someone is dealing with money and has lost it, it is natural if he urges for its recovery. Nothing can stop him from taking one last chance. Though that one last chance thing is not actually the last one. He will keep on struggling until he cant make anymore bets.

It is really hard if we think like that if we win in gambling it gonna be fun for sure but if we lose, it makes regrets and disappointment. I know every gambler wants to win, they always look gambling in a positive way as they think that this will be the solution to their financial problem once the win the jackpot. We can't hold them nor to stop them cause it only causes misunderstanding, letting them play may help to realize what would be the possible ends and nothing has to blame but just himself.

But you have to be careful also. I noticed that a gambler who is losing much and is already on a desperate move to be willing to gamble everything that is left on him to try to recover his losses is becoming quick-tempered. A soft reminder from you might get a yelling response from him to leave him alone and mind your own business. I have seen how little children fetching their gambler dads, or wives asking their husbands to go home already, are shouted at because they are already losing big. 

Yes, that needs serious attention to help him to rise from his desperate. We can remind him that many people will not blame what he did before, and the truth is we want to help him to solve his problem. I think if we can give a warm approachment, he will understand that we have a good reason to stay with him, and he will realize that people around him care with him.

I have seen that too in my neighborhood because that person does not realize he is already losing big. Besides that, his family does not come to him and asks him to go home.

Always at the safe side. if the gamblers have it's own way of thinking then you can't pushed things for them, you have to let things to go according
to what they've think and allow them experienced things that would change their mindsets regarding to this activities. gamblers have it's own way
of realizing, most needs to suffered big loss to understand and stop.

Well, you have a point, gamblers are not typically the most understanding person when it comes to them playing so it is better to leave them that way but if it is a close friend then I think giving an advise or warning is not bad at all, just say it in a nice manner that he would understand and I think he will not take it as a bad thing.

Recently while playing dice, I saw a person who was wagering with large funds to recover the loss. By the time he has lost part of what I have lost. I texted him my experience, and suggested to stop it before things go out of his hands. He didn't responded, finally he lost everything. Have any of you got such experience.

yes i am , well , i also have been plunged into that world of pain for a long time.
i guess, what wrong with me, when i knew something new, i try found how to doubled or tripled it.
and i knew crypto gambling, well many many fall but also have a success , although its never ROI i guess.
the biggest lost i get is came from cloudbet with live blackjack game. i lost everything, need a few month's to wake up.

We don't need to stop gamblers from gambling their money because it's their own lives so let them play. All we need to do is just to remind them the consequences of gambling whenever they get totally controlled by their emotions. But it's a good thing too to let them face their mistakes so they will learn a lesson from it and be cautious the next time.

My experience is similar to your experience, I recently joined sports betting, I created a sportsbet.io account (sportsbet.io has been a good site and I like it), I studied sports betting a bit and got some early wins. (I always bet with small amounts of money to practice), but then I started having a big losing streak that made me angry and made me think I should bet higher amounts to to recover my losses, look at some of my recent losses:



I decide to stop for a while and withdraw my funds. I decided to stop to study more and come back with my mind more focused and full of knowledge
