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

[iamsange]

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.

Actually it is a good thing to do. But people will not easily listen to you before they face their losses by themself. But me, will not do that thing because i think it is their own privacy. Either win or lose is their choice and before they gambling, they should already know what risk of doing it. Maybe it will be good thing if we warn people before they lose, but if we stop them to gambling, and then know they are win (in case it is not dice or maybe they want to do sportsbet) they will blame us. And worst thing that could happen is we must replace their "almost" winning money.

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.

Of course, I have not yet encountered people who made big bets and lost everything, and also in my environment there are no dependent gamblers, but I think that betting on sports is less risky than playing craps.  If, for example, I constantly monitor my national football team, then I can almost exactly guess what result they will have in the next tournaments.  But if we are talking about a game to visit, then this is not an opportunity for me to earn money, but simply an opportunity to test and try my luck.

Well, yes I can. It will depend on your self how you can manage it and control while you are in gambling. You should know where you must stop and the point that wanted to cover your loss that you can afford to keep wagering. Just relax and take it easy and then come back when you are ready to gamble again. Indeed, covering the losses is not necessary if you gamble just for fun.

I would not prefer to say to unknown ones and would restrict myself to give advice only to whom I know and will let them know what they are doing and as Be aware of the outcome as well . And if they do not want to listen then would not give them more advice .

It might sound too selfish but i dont really like to suggest nor getting involved on someones money or decisions specially if they do gamble.
Caring isnt bad but you should be focus first on what you had done and experience rather than minding on other peoples business.
People are way too impatient into most things specially when we do talk about money.We dont like on those waiting times thats why
we do make on selection to play into those fast and instant results but come to think that the risk on losing is way more higher than on the
previous thing you are attached into.

I hardly agree with this, I'm a gambler and I don't want anyone to bother me when I'm playing cause it makes me distracted especially when I need to focus. Most of us gamblers have our own strategies and my strategy is good enough to not be carried away by my emotions like what OP said that a certain person is wagering big amount just to recover his loses which for me is a bad move. If you tell a gambler to stop playing, There's an 80% chance that the gambler will ignore your message, Like what I said some of the gamblers are hating distractions. I suggest that you should let the gambler feels that he needs to control himself and then it will make you an opening to enlighten him to stop or to control his moves on playing gambling.

When you are already on the verge of losing then im pretty sure that you would be most likely to be neglected into the person where you would tend to
give out some advise in the middle of the game.He wouldnt care if he would lost it all or not since the target and only thing on his mind is to break even with
his loses thats why i would say its no point on telling someone on what they gonna do.You can try though as a sign of worrying on other people.

Yep seen that a lot. On Duckdice user samiest was always betting big and he only stopped after busting. Sometimes he was up 1000ltc but just kept playing.

Based on experience? Nah, I wouldn't even try it. To be frank, I have been in that situation before but the other party didn't take it lightly though, (whether friends or families), so what if it is a total stranger? Good thing is that in crypto, no really know the guy in personal life so probably you can do that. But if it's in a traditional casino, I wouldn't even dare to say it to someone though, let him experience and probably he can learn from his it.

You mean always choosing high odds in the majority of your bets throughout your whole sports betting experience? Kind of unusual to me to see on a gambler that shifted his focus on something riskier as you have mentioned you are already into gambling for long and you treat your sports betting experience as "major focus" meaning you should already know how to deal with the risks here and by now, you should have a good winning stats. Well then, your decision though.

Proper bankroll management and playing with fair odds is the key.

First of all, that gambler has a purpose (how did you know that gambler is recovering the losses on that session?) and you shouldn't interrupt whatever he is trying to do. If you want to give that gambler a bit of advice, tell him after his session. That is the reality of doing gambling. Big rollers already know the risks and honestly, even you see them losing big, they are more responsible gamblers compared to those lose a quite small amount and began overreacting on the lose.

You just said it because of the topic. You will never know once you are in the situation.

[leowonderful]

I used to, but I rarely do anymore because it's extremely difficult to stop someone who's already dug themselves into a hole to stop; most people I've observed in a situation like the one described in OP think they'll somehow earn back the lost money 'till they're completely out of funds, and most people also aren't willing to just cut losses because of this no matter how things might actually be. If that person's actively in the event of losing money, that person's likely just going to get mad if you intervene. It's the sad truth, but just let it happen. There really isn't much you can do initially.

Fortunately, a large majority of the people I do know who have gone through events like this have largely stopped gambling or gambling in this way after getting burned once. Some people end up doing this over and over again, unfortunately.

[Hypnosis00]

What it makes difficult in gambling is by being controlled by our emotions and ignore other concerns which are the fact that we can't deny.
What happens to you and the person you've seen is just a scenario which is commonly it happens when we are fooled by our own mindset. We know that gambling is risky and wagering is not the option to take cause it only gives more losses rather than to make a short recovery from our previous losses.

I had the same experience but not in online gambling, I think its just the adrenaline rush that won't let us stop gambling, we are so aggressive because we are losing and in our mind, we can't accept those loses and we want to win it all back, but since we don't have an edge, we will just eventually loss or has a big chance of losing than recovering our money.

Yupp ... an overconfident that is the start of disaster, just because he has done it before doesn't mean he'll make it happened over and over again. A common mistake like that is inevitable, greedy would never be stopped in that easy way by saying wise words or something like that.

It's useless telling people to stop gambling especially in a condition where he lost too much and going to go allin straight. That moment you got no chance to stop him unless there's a whisper from god to do so. Human is tend to emotional all the time when it comes to gambling , that's the fact.

I have tried it to my friend but to no avail, but if you are going to do this, be sure you do this to a friend not with a stranger or you will be inviting a fight, if they have decided to gamble away all their money, you cannot do anything on it, one time in my case or some gamblers have extended what they can wager in a gambling site, they thought the next roll or bet will favor them.

[Ararbermas]

Being addicted is one a of the biggest problem of some gamblers. Because no one can easily convinced them to stop despite of their lost wherein even their family in my opinion.  Because its like they don't mind everything and they all want to focus in what they're doing especially if they already experienced  winning which afterwards can give an excitement and being addicted  ,until they cant control their emotions anymore.

[maydna]

Fortunately, I don't have the experience like you. I never gamble more than the money I can afford to lose. But you do a good thing by texts him to warn him to stop gamble, but unfortunately, he didn't listen to you and cause him to lose his money. I think that is not your mistake because you already warn him to stop, but he continues to gamble.

For playing gamble, I think we already know that we should prevent the greedy that can make us lose more money than we can imagine. Perhaps, you should remember this as your lesson, and controlling yourself will be the best thing that you can do in gambling to prevent another loss.

[Ailmand]

Never tried it. I know how it feels when you feel like gambling. Even when I am gambling in real life there are instances even my opponents(who usually are my friends) suggest for me to stop or to lower my wager and yet I don't listen. So, I guess even if you try someone to stop it would not matter because when you are gambling, your mind is about winning or recovering some of your losses and you never lose faith on your luck not until you are bankrupt.

That's risky for me because if the next bet is the winning bet, you are the one that will be blamed for that. If I am losing and betting to recover my money, I am going to bet high, and sometimes I recover it all and stop. So imagine I am going to bet and you stop me, then the next bet will recover my loses, I will blame you for that. I am just suggesting that don't interfere with anyone who is gambling.

Yes, we cannot come to an conclusion with the outcome of gambling. Maybe the next roll can be a winning roll to recover back all he have lost. It's their money, and they're trying to get the best out of it. The pattern of loss resembled the same as mine, upon the same I suggested it.

I lost more than 40 ethereum in a day, first I saw his loss to be 3 ethereum and soon after that saw his betting portfolio with a loss of 13 ethereum. By that time I suggested and he went on ending up all that's in the wallet.

[Genemind]

I myself have been really addicted to dice before. I gained a good profit but out of greed, I expected that I would gain more until my partner advised me to stop. Then I realized that I'm already losing more than my capital. That's when I decided to stop. There's no guarantee that we'll always win in any crypto gambling so we should always know when to stop.

[freedomgo]

No, because if a person is gambling regardless on how he is doing it, I have full respect to him.
Also, if I gamble, I don't want something giving me some advise on what to do as I have full trust on myself and if ever I will make a mistake, I want to learn it my way, so I can improve as a gambler and I will be able to make good judgement every time I play.

I understand that the risk is really high, but as a gambler, we need to take care of ourselves and we need to be discipline every time.
If we will not do that, we will surely learn the hard way.
