Social experiments in the world of gambling

[Quidat]

If someone bet and he suffers a big loss and then goes here to ask a little help from you, are you willing to give him help?
Have you ever experienced something like that, how do you deal with this loss?

^ The question is, what kind of help he want?
If that is about asking financial support no one will listen to him since that is his fault of not putting a limit on his self. Probably the common words he might hear are those move on and forget what you have lost. And be careful next time when he is in gambling it should have control over his self and set the amount of what he can afford. I never experience this but if I have, I will frankly say those words that remarkable to him and getting knowledge.

Right! Finding up some financial support is nonsense because no one would indeed to give him out and just like what
others been telling on this thread.He would rather able to received some tips and words of wisdom, i agree to that fact that
giving out that like of "move on and go further" line.Its totally no logic if you do help for financial even if you do know that
he do lost up big time? You are just making him to be worst instead.

make it more clear , like he is asking for money as a help or asking for help to stop gambling ?
when it comes to money I won't lend a gambler who lost all his bankroll  , if he was cautious enough he wouldn't lose his own money at first place which means most likely he will bust your money too 

if he asking for help to quit then that should involve professional therapy not just some chats with friends , chatting with friends can help sometimes but it's much better to seek professional help

I highly doubt that person is asking for help to stop gambling and needs money for that reason to visit medical expert and get help from them to combat his gambling addiction.
Of course reason is clear, to gamble more with the hope of getting lost money back.
Well, in bitcoin community it happens often when people send some satoshies to each other sometimes or even if you are active in chats, on most gambling websites you'll get some rains which includes different altcoins.
And on another hand, I think we don't have to make them even more addicted by giving some money.

i guess the OP already got an answer crystal clear! no one will give more money to that person just to spend again for gambling.  it is his battle, and he should deal with it!
i dont think he will ask for emotional or moral support either. if he needs this kind of support, he will not get help from here but from a serious entity that will truly address his personal prob.
tbh, dealing with loss is your personal cross. you did it so accept the consequences!

Depending, a person can provide help when he is able to help the problem at hand, but not all problems are able to be faced by everyone. Maybe most people will help him if your problem is easy, like how to manage money, a good strategy, isn't that also included in help.

When you face loss, there is an mistake there. What mistake did I make? which part? what's the solution? every mistake has experience. Well I always make that experience to continue to progress in gambling.

The real question is what kind of help does he wants, it is just like asking a stupid question will be answered with a stupid answers too. What you seek is what you get that's how simple is that and if ever he really want something like a way to stop gambling or how to stop losses, or how to stop gambling, etc. At the end it all depends on the OP himself.

If this person will knock on my door and ask for money and I ask him where is he going to spend that money, and he says to recover his loses in gambling, on the spot, I will say NO. However, the answer maybe different if that scenario happens inside a casino, lets say he a good friend and we are sitting beside each other, on a poker table, and he asks for help, maybe  I will lend him a few chips and pay me back when I see him again. Big NO if its a random person.

[Ailmand]

Absolutely not, I never encourage people who ganble to borrow money to chase their losses. Even if it is not gambling, I don't lend people money right away if it is not necessary or not an emergency. I never borrow money from people because I want to be responsible with my monry and to suffer by ny self and never to burden others because of my fault. I don't want to be the reason why a people will have. a debt because of addiction.

I guess he will ask for help to lend him some money to continue gambling. That is what someone will do if he loses his money in gambling and meets some guy so he can borrow money from that guy. I think he won't listen to that guy if that guy tells to move on and forget, and I guess that person will search the other guy to borrow the money.

That person needs to realize that he must stop gambling for a while and don't continue gambling because that will be difficult for him to win and to pay the money. But if that person asks for help to drive him back to his home, perhaps we can help him.

Its ok to help but I won't help him thru money maybe thru emotional help its possible but since he lose money he might ask for a debt and of course I wont help him on that. I didn't experience like this before because I usually stay away from any gambler as much as possible and I want to have fun alone especially on a slot machine.

[coin-investor]

Some gamblers are liers they will do everything just to continue this vice, he is good at pretending, I have seen these kinds of people we have so many of these on the internet and in actual life and besides we don't know if these people really experienced that, there is a lot risk dealing with people in the internet, some of them will just use us, because we have no way of knowing because we have not seen or have no knowledge on all his actions.

That may be the common thing, he will ask for money to help himself. Since he lost so much money in gambling, the only thing on his mind is for sure how he will be able to get all those money back. If that's the case, the right thing to do help him in another way. It is not right to avoid listening to him, at least show him that there are still more people to listen to someone who has a problem when it comes to gambling.

Once you have talk to him, I know he will realize everything, and he will stop gambling once it happens. Most of the time, that kind of person only needs someone to talk to and help them realize the things that they don't.

One of biggest mistake is to gamble with borrowed money , quite high chances that you might end up losing that money as well and end up on a messy note as you would not have money to replay those debts and thus relationship gets spoilt .

Yes but the help/support that I will be giving is limited to advice, and not monetary support.

Most persons that I know always ask for support/help whenever they feel like they already succumbed to addiction and gambling. Advising them what to do despite them not listening at all would not stop me from extending my time and support to them.

Addiction is not something that could be resolved overnight. It is a series of steps and stages where a person undergoes for rehabilitation and goal-setting. You have to understand first their side before even judging them.

If ever there will be one, I will be just saying to him that accept the sad truth about it and move on. I guess it there would no one that would accept for a help like that, they knew from the start what are they entering and they should've been ready for what the consequences are.

I won't help and this experiment will surely fail, the answer of this is obviously now, I am not even expecting one member here that would say they are willing to help.

Have you ever experienced something like that, how do you deal with this loss?

I deal with it alone, I don't beg people to compensate my loses because int he first place, it was my own will to gamble and in gambling its normal to lose, but you'll be stupid if you lose beyond your budget in gambling.

It depends on the particular help he asks from me. If it is monetary or financial help, I might not help him.

I have experienced this several times but not here. I have gambler friends whose life is mostly about doing what makes them happy for the moment without necessarily thinking about the day/s to come, or what happens next, or even their family's needs. I admire and pity them at the same time. Sometimes, I cannot fight the urge to help them, even lend them some amount, for the sake of their family.

absolutely not lol,why would i help a gambling addict?he must be responsible for his action and must be learn from the experiences.

no one tells him to gamble then why disturb me when he fails?nothing that i will help him ,he must help himself .

[Kevondo]

no i will not ever do that even if he is my friend because his reason to gambling and recover his loss is not acceptable to me but i think i can change my mind if his reason is somehow valid like for example if he will be loaning some cash to buy foods or rice because thier budget was short ( which happen commonly on the people that i know ) anyway . asking for a loan just to play a gambling is i think a really bad idea because it only bring a headache to you .

It is like adding fuel to the fire. If a gambler will borrow money from someone and happens to lose it in this game, he will be in double trouble. He wont only lose the money but become a person with debt having no penny in pocket. Moreover, people who have addict gamblers as their friends, should never lend them money even if they want it for grocery. Better would be to send require products instead of money.

In my opinion, this guy was already addicted to gambling if are just thinking wise you will never bet all of your money in gambling because as we know that it is risky,
Sometimes we win and sometimes we lose in gambling you that's why we cant bet all of our money because we could easily lose it all in gambling and vice versa we could easily win a good profit in gambling but helping someone that loses in gambling? the guy was already addicted and I think if you help him we will just going to gamble the money and hoping to win and pay you back or try his luck again in the game.
Also sometimes this is one of the user's scam asking for money or bitcoin.

Acceptance need to get inside his mind as gambling addicted didn't know how to control, if you will help him in terms of financial assistance he might go back and play again. The help that he need is to how he can move away from this kind of addiction, he needs mental assistance if you can guide him or if you can refer good doctor to assist him. But in terms of money matters he should not get anything for him to realize and for him to think that quitting is the best way to cure himself.

I wouldn't give/lend money to such person, because it would only make things worse for him/her, but I would be more than happy to help with an advice on how to deal with loss, and on how to avoid such situations in the future.

I know, people pay big money for counselling, but the thing is that shrinks are no gamblers themselves, and thus they can hardly say anything constructive on the matter.

I would suggest to such a person to come here, on this forum, to spell out their problem with as many details as possible, and to get free counselling. Maybe it would be helpful.
