I want to ask my fellow gamblers here, what is the worst thing you have done for your gambling hobby or habit? Have you come to the point of getting addicted to it and how did you counter it?
Based on my experienced, I also have encounter being greedy and addicted in gambling, since I won a huge amount of profit from playing poker and slots that every night I always experienced go at the casino just to trying to earn a huge amount of profit, but I ended up losing a lot of money and bankrupt. Today, I still gamble at the casino and on gambling sites, but i can now limit myself from playing gambling for leisure time only.

I was reading the news this morning and one of the headlines was about a terrible stealing incident involving an alleged gambling addict. The man is an employee of R&L Investments, one of the Philippines' oldest stock brokerage firms. He was able to orchestrate a way to suck at least ₱700-million worth of stocks from the company to support his gambling addiction. This is around 14 million USD, huge enough for the company to decide its closure after 5 decades of operation.[1]

This case made me remember another news that shocked the country and beyond more than a couple of years ago. This incident involved another gambling addict who tried to burn down the casino inside Resorts World Manila. The man entered the casino fully armed and attempted to steal chips. It went awry and much worse from there, and ended up burning himself alive. The gambling addiction of the perpetrator had reached its worst end after initially causing separation from his family, selling of properties including his home and car, incurring huge debts, and so on. The incident claimed dozens of lives.[2]

In the issue from the previous year about the goes to the resorts world manila, he is just a regular person who wants to play gambling. Still, after he loses many times, he cannot control himself self make a terrible action, stole a million casino chips on the and let other people die in smoke inhalation, and then he commits suicide.
One of the worst things I've done in playing gambling is to wage all of my money in just in a single game, I already got a lose streak and one of the things that I can do to get my fails is to max the wage to make my money, but even it is very risky. Still, I continue to play this kind of strategy. It works for just two games and again lose my money and go home regrets all of my decisions.

There was a point of time where I become addicted because I was winning, I have a good run of winning back then, I bet all my salary back then, I thought it will not end, but after a week the table was turn, I suffered a lot of losses, and lose all my savings, until i realized that I am losing grip and losing control I'm glad helped to overcome my addiction but it was a worse experience.

This is really scary. They have gone wild to the point they are not able to think right at the moment. Surely such events is possible at every kind of addiction might be gambling or not. Worst thing I have done so far is that I tried to jump out from my set of plan of what I can afford to lose. I tried to borrow money just to fulfill my addiction. Well, I am glad that I was able on not doing it anymore. Maybe if I continue doing I will be probably one of the criminals out there trying to do unlawful acts.

Everyone has got some point that makes them get into addiction. Some succeed out of the addiction profiting big while majority of the gamblers loss big out of the same. Using the funds for living on gambling is a worst decision, somehow you've known it at the right time and overcame it. Gambling is all about an entertainment and when taken this as a source for earning loss will be much experienced than winning.

The guy just lost his mind this is an example a chronic gambler went berserk or crazy, he will have to spend the rest of his life in jail with the huger amount or worse people will just liquidate him, because this is company money and there are a lot of shareholders on it, the problem on this one is they delegate everything to one person, they should break it down to several people to avoid this scenario this is a bad business decision that should be avoided.

I heard recently an interesting thought about alcohol addiction. It was said that from birth one can say about a person whether he is predisposed to alcoholism or not. The whole secret is allegedly how well the body produces an enzyme that raps alcohol https://www.mydr.com.au/gastrointestinal-health/liver-and-alcohol-breakdown. And if this enzyme is produced well, then a person does not appear addicted to an alcoholic.
Perhaps this idea makes sense.
And perhaps the same approach can be outstripped regarding gaming addiction. Someone has developed excitement in a greater degree, and someone can play at least for days, but without excitement and not feeling any influence. The question is very individual.

A big fault for a broker for allowing their employees to steal money for almost a decade, they must prevented this one if they have a good security. He becomes addict because of having an unlimited source of money but now he sucks and will face a big trial of his life. Addiction on its finest, and a biggest fraud in Philippine Stockmarket casinos must strictly implement their KYC program and alarm the companies about it.

theres something wrong with this post,you have mentioned of having a "Good Run Winning"but how come that even your salary is being spent for betting?supposedly the salary was safe because of constant winning right?

theres not true on that statement mate.



but its your statement who am i to disagree right?

A big fault for a broker for allowing their employees to steal money for almost a decade, they must prevented this one if they have a good security. He becomes addict because of having an unlimited source of money but now he sucks and will face a big trial of his life.

but what if the employee dont really got all that money?but he was only famed up?we know nothing inside the company because what we have are the news from the media that we also knew are payable lol.

Personally, it is really hard to control ourself especially if we were on our surge of our emotion. For instance, we keep winning and winning we tend to forget to control our emotion because of joy and same if we keep losing we tend to forget as well because we were annoyed. It is easily to be said that you can control your emotions but hard to be done, once you get addicted into something it is hard to leave this aside.

These act you mentioned are the worst I have ever seen because it is really silly and I think those kind of people needs to be rehabilitated because there is something else that has taken over them. Why am I gambling, isn't it to make money and if I have the opportunity to steal $14 million, why on earth would I still continue with gambling, I think those ones are being ruled by marine spirit or any demonic spirit.

I love gambling, most especially for game, but the moment that I saw that it was beginning to affect my children’s education and I find it hard helping them out on their assignment, I had to stop gambling immediately because family comes for me and anything that will take that away will be dealt with completely.

I want to ask my fellow gamblers here, what is the worst thing you have done for your gambling hobby or habit? Have you come to the point of getting addicted to it and how did you counter it?
Actually I have been there before in which I am already getting loans to my friends and family in order to support my vices in gambling so that I can play and go to casino to play poker and any gambling games, I have also even steal to my father and mother's pocket in order to go and play to the casino or even getting the money that to be paid for our electricity and water consumption. I have experience and done all of that just because of the addiction to gambling to be able to play and earn money and maybe I can call it an addiction. How I overcome this is one day my father talks to me about stopping it because we are already down on debts because of what I am doing, and one day I even stop going to the casino to play and that would be the time that I've been able to control my addiction in gambling.

And I end up losing the match so in the end I didn't have enough money to have a decent dinner for my family.
But it was the last time that I made anything stupid for gambling.
i believe you that it was very,so so so stupid.how can a person afford to Bet in Gambling even the money that must be deserve for food?how can you afford to let your family starved while you are stupidly playing for fortune?you must be right that it is the last thing you will ever do such foolishness because if not?surely your family will leave you alone.



i have done something stupid as well for gambling in past but not to the extent that even the food will be at stake because more than everything ?my family is first in my life so better not to do that again.

I've also experienced this once, it can't be help and hard to resist once we won even if it is just a couple of times, that gives us courage every time and we are always in control by the house because of that bait, in the end, we are all crybabies or a mad grandma, ranting about the money she lost because of herself.

And the other thing is, gambling is never a decent way to give your family a decent dinner.

But it was the last time that I made anything stupid for gambling.

If you are still playing gambling, you're still making stupid things.

I see my neighbor doing this. So disgusted to think about it but that's their life and they choose to be like that.
I appreciate gambling but not to the point that it drags me to the hell and do stupid things and sacrificing the needs of my family just to fulfill my pleasure playing in casinos.  It is important to know our limitations and don't get tempted to what people say's high gains in gambling.

Everyone has got some point that makes them get into addiction. Some succeed out of the addiction profiting big while majority of the gamblers loss big out of the same. Using the funds for living on gambling is a worst decision, somehow you've known it at the right time and overcame it. Gambling is all about an entertainment and when taken this as a source for earning loss will be much experienced than winning.
I don’t want to accept everyone gets into a point of addiction in gambling. I have always seen gambling addition stories unbelievable because it is weird to me. There is timing for everything, I feel it is easy to stop. The people who get addicted to gambling are those who are extremely greedy. Everyone has an iota of greed when gambling when it is taken to the extreme then it’s definitely going to result in crisis.

The story shared by the OP is still very unimaginable to me and I must confess that I am amazed on how far addicted gamblers can go to satisfy their unhealthy urge. Well, I hope a lot of addicted and yet to be addicted gamblers would learn from this and this would definitely make a lot of people seek help as soon as possible.

Of course Gambling can be really a form of addiction because we all know that this is a vices in which we are playing or gamble our money in order for it to grow huge, but what if you've been done the most scariest thing in your life for you to just supply your needs in order to gamble money? Just for example stealing, cheating other people and etc. I hope before we get there we must change our life in order for us to not experience those kind of bad habits. We can gamble sometimes for fun, but doing such bad things in order to gamble, then it is bad.

I doubt majority of the stories posted here are just stories and not real life things. The person's life would be pretty messed up if that was the case. Not being able to feed their family would mean immediate scolding from the spouse and that is indeed a embarrassing situation for any human.

One should not let their addiction get the better side of them. There are people who gamble and handle their savings carefully. Being responsible is not possible for many who are recklessly trying to chase losses and make up their losses but moral values should be kept in mind.

I can understand what gambling addiction is and understand what those who go through it can do, so I never doubt stories such as this told by the OP,  I gamble, but I'm still in control of myself when gambling.

I understand gambling addiction because I have a friend in my area who is a gambling addict, he use to good savings before,but the moment he got addicted to gambling, he is always out of money, he goes as far as selling his phone and stealing from his parents, the money he takes to a bet house to play virtual soccer bet and other form of bets. At this point he is always losing more than he gains, could greed be the cause of gambling addiction?

There is no doubt that greed is the main cause of gambling addiction. The question is, how to fight it? I personally don't think that there's something wrong with the people who want to have more money than they have currently. People work hard pursuing this goal, and many of them succeed. But those who are greedy will never stop, even after having more than enough already. I bet that guy from the OP, Marlo Moron, had a pretty good salary, enough for living a happy life. And yet, he thought it wasn't enough for him. Many people have suffered because of his selfish actions, but he was hardly thinking of others. And that's a perfect example of what greed can do to a person.
Greed is always present on each person the only difference is that each one of us do have different level on how to handle out our greed.

If you cant control it then there would be an equal consequences on it.Be contended on what we have in terms of financial aspect. Dont ask for more
and dont ask for easy money because if you do push it too hard and leading you to gamble and believing on making easy money with it which is really
a very common mistake of most people.
There is no denial in that. Humans are greedy by nature and if someone denies this, then he is not human. Controlling the temptation and money love is not like not having them at the first place.
There existence within us is the whole reason why we are taught patience and self control. Losing one’s sense can bring big harms in games like gambling where money is at stake. The best is to play only for fun.
