An Indian boy committed suicide after losing money by Betting in IPL

[ecnalubma]

Sad news but this is happening anywhere in the world. As a gambler we should always set and know our limits, gambling is not a profession and its not for everyone. Losing in gambling really hurts most especially if you gamble all your means, it could be a catalyst to depression.

Really sad, RIP to this young boy only 19 year old and now engage heavily in gambling he should go to school at his young age and not doing gambling and the worst is the money is from his friends thats why he decided to end his life out of pressure and fear he might face if he tell it to his friends but after-all its only a money he can earn it in due time and can pay his friends not committing suicide.  

Indeed, he's still young that he can't manage his emotion being in that situation wherein he should not be in the first place. It's a lesson that we should not chase our losses because the more we keep chasing it, the more we get dragged to it. Also, ending your life won't solve the problem, it will just add and give more burden to the people around you.

His situation was too heavy for him to handle, and it's just sad to think that he could have enjoyed his life since he's still young, if he did not get so addicted to gambling at this age.

One of the cons when you do let yourself do fall into the verge of addiction where you cant able to think that well on how things should go but instead you do decide to end up your

life for you to solve out everything which its just a really bad decision to make and its true that you might able to resolve your problem but to think that all of your loved ones left

will really be having a problem not only on emotional aspect but also into financial yet burial does cost expense unless if you do belong to a wealthy family then it wont matter
but if not then that would be an another problem created.

This is why we should really be careful on dealing with gambling yet it can mess out someones life.

This is just a proof that gambling influences much the humans. We affected much by the losses that we bet in gambling. That is why we should moderate our bets because gambling is made not for us to win but for us to lose. It is sad that he ended his life because of losing money with his bets. He never think that he can recover it when time comes and he gets luck. In playing gambling, we must conquer our emotions and fear of losing. Having beaten in gambling is normal, remember that we play it only for fun.

This is one of many suicide incidents with regards to gambling especially those who are drowning into debt because of this gambling addiction but in my surprise, this is just a young boy who are already addicted to gambling something is wrong with this one. If you can’t control your emotion then stop gambling now before you ended up like this, this is another sad story of gambling.

The news of suicide because of experiencing losses due to gambling is indeed worried, because it turns out that there are still many
who cannot accept losses when playing gambling. Even though when you first decided to play gambling, you already knew that there
were two possibilities, losing or winning. So don't just expect to win in gambling, we also have to be mentally prepared when we lose.
People who commit suicide usually do not accept defeat, therefore they are shocked when they experience defeat and take shortcuts
to solve the problem by committing suicide. This is the importance of education in gambling, especially for newbies or gamblers who
are not yet mature, so this doesn't happen again.

The mistake that he made is borrowed the money from his friend after he lost all his money. If at that time, he can stop gambling after the losses and not borrow the money, I think he will not think about suicide. That is the danger of borrowing the money from other people that will be used for playing gambling because we never know if we can win or lose all of the money in the next minute. It is better to save ourselves before everything becomes worst. I hope we don't follow what he did, especially borrow money from other people to gamble.

If he wagered with his own money, there was a chance that he would not kill himself because he was betting with his own money and would only make him regret it.
It seems like he is feeling pressure from his friends and distress because he is confused about having to pay his debt to gamble maybe a large amount and it seems that there have been many reports of people committing suicide due to debt for different reasons and stories, and it is very concerning.

Even if he didn't borrow money from his friends it seems like it's bound to happen since he's losing money and it was mentioned in the source that his financial situation isn't great. Then again it's hard to tell what would've happen next since he could've been struggling with other things too and maybe that last big loss he had was the icing on the cake that made him pull the trigger.

Recently an Indian young boy committed suicide as he lost enough money by betting in IPL. He lost all of his money then borrowed money from his friends and bet with it in a hope of win back something. But he lost everything and took the step finally.

This is horrible if indeed it was a confirmed suicide but I think the possibility is huge that it was, the young lad couldn't handle the pressure and I think that's really a huge amount of money he lent from his friends that he done this.

The question is how much the money his friends lent and why would they allow him to lend if it's huge and if he can't afford to pay that. Well, the thing has happened already he just can't face what he should face what a poor and young soul he should have asked for help rather taking his life that easily. Hope this is an eye-opener to all gamblers out there new or old.

Now there will be the knee-jerk reaction from the government. They will blame online gambling for the death, and will try to block all the gambling sites. This is just ridiculous, as the death had nothing to do with online gambling. Addiction to gambling and inability to stick to the stop-loss caused the death of this individual, and not the access to online gambling sites.

This is not a Boy mate so the title seems misleading because the Involved is a 21 year Male(unless what you mean by BOY is MAN or MALE)

What?the online gambling site is the one who blamed by this ?damn Gambling is addicting so the government must have advertisements regarding the matter and don't blame the whole association.

This is just ridiculous, as the death had nothing to do with online gambling. Addiction to gambling and inability to stick to the stop-loss caused the death of this individual, and not the access to online gambling sites.

and besides this is isolated case and just being sensually advertised to favor Media and news outlet but the truth is?
this same case happening in other country and much younger is the involved .

He had taken this extreme step as he was involved in the cricket (IPL) betting due to which he faced financial loss and could not bear the pressure. When the other roommates went for work, Sonu had committed suicide in the morning.

This is nothing new, we know a lot of gambler committed suicide earlier after losing large amount in gambling. I have found another news reletaed to this IPL's Dark Side: A Rise in Suicide Cases Has Greeted the Return of Live Cricket on TV

People shouldn't bet with the money what they can't afford to loss. Borrowing money for betting is worst decision ever. Every gambler know these things but many of them still do it. Does this kind of news make you worried? Share your thought about this.

How can a 21 year old be called a "boy"?

He is a 21 year old man who knows what is right and what is wrong, he took a chance which according to me was a stupidest idea and lost everything. After that he should have stopped but he went ahead borrowed money from others and again lost it.

He not only destroyed himself but those who had lend him the money they are also now suffering the loss because of his stupidity.

I do not have any sympathy for such moron.

Man this is very heartbreaking.

What happened to this poor person parallels the reality of gambling in the whole world. Lots of people commit suicide every year as mostly suffer from depression and other mental problems. In addition, most gamblers that seek money in gambling are also drowned in financial debts. If you view gambling as a source of income, chances are that you would most likely be financially unstable.

Relying on something that is highly and very unpredictable results to an unpredictable conclusion as well. Please I beg everyone who is in the same situation, seek for help from your peers and family members.

I can't stop wondering how his friends are willing to lend money to doubters and how the dead man promised bail?

I also live in an environment where traditional gamblers can be found. In order to lend to gamblers, I had to think several times. I don't really care if they die from gambling in the end, but I care more if nobody returns my money. As people who are aware of the risks of gambling, we should do our best to prevent people from borrowing money for gambling.

[GrayFullbuster]

I think it is the reason why mental health in gambling is really a matter because there are persons that can considered as suicidal whenever they lose money in gambling. This is not the first time that I heard this some kind of news because in the past there are many people who committed suicide just because they lose money in gambling. I'm so sad to read the news about a boy committed suicide just because he lose bet in IPL . Our lives are more important than money and for sure that he cannot handle the stress and the frustration that made him to do a suicide.

Traditional gambling are sucks .. you know you can't get out of that deadly circle unless if you completely lost everything , that time you are allowed to leave free lol this is the general rules , better you gamble online while nobody threatening you  .. nobody feel ashamed and things a little better in the online betting i guess. God damn poor boy , 19 years old ... he should have a bright future still despite this huge loss .

Sometimes when your friend has a sign of feeling desperate, depressed , you as a friend should keep your waffling away. One word that offends this depressed person it could decide whether is he gonna survive or choose a shortcut way to die. I would be careful on what I'm saying, life isn't that cheap to say 'I don't really care if they die from gambling in the end'
I have been in that kind dark situation where all my business went in bankruptcy. A word can decide a life.

You guys haven't visited the Source link of my post. As the source news doesn't contain much information about this case, you can check this news After losing money in IPL betting, 19-year-old ends life

I have answered about it to few people before. And I know there is difference between age 19 and 21. Few guys also replied here that his parents should realise the condition of this boy and counsel him. Actually he was a migrant worker and living away from his home.

[CryptocurencyKing]

This might be a new occurance but its very much not a new story. It feels sad that things like this still occur or most persons still see death through suicide or any other means as the easy way out to get out of a debth owed or to end their misfortune. This ought not to be so should you have a managerial skill that helps you to determine the probility of a success before taking any risk. If you come to trading, there are lots of tools and instruments fnaor evaluation such as the fibunachi, indicators and all that, bets have got non of this but we've got prediction sites, your own sentiments and a rule that says, 'risk only what you can afford to loose'. So why risk everything, bets is been made for over 18 years and above meaning adults but sadly, not many grow in sense and appreciate life the way it is. The mentality of life for debts is just wrong. Too bad!

Even if I have money I will never lend money to my friends who are very much into gambling, it's either they will not pay or they cannot pay because even when they win they are not going to pay, they have losses to recover and they always in need of money.
So even if a friend cursed me I will not lend him, what happened to this boy might happen to him and it will be on me.
