Congratulations! You have already on the right path to end your gambling addiction. Because you are understanding that you are becoming an addicted gambler. That's the most important step.
Take medical help now! Every country has helpline numbers to help an addicted gambler to recover. Connect there and speak up. You should get help from there and possibly they will do some counseling as well.
20k is a big amount. You need to stop gambling instead of looking for alternatives.
Mate, addiction is sometime not only because the gambler often wins the bet but can also occur because the gambler does not want to stop and continues to want to recover his losses. This desire become the most difficult thing to get rid of and gamblers often look for other alternative to recover losses by continuing to bet on different things. I just hope the OP starts to realize that gambling isn't the best way to make big profit, but it's much better if he has the perception that gambling is where he entertain himself and it doesn't cost too much money.

Gambling addiction is not one person issue it's a global issue. Best approach is to cure it before it completely rips all of your money. "It is estimated that around two million people in the US are addicted to gambling, and that for as many as 20 million the habit seriously interferes with work and social life. (Source)"20k is a big amount. You need to stop gambling instead of looking for alternatives. He didn't mention which currency he used. If it's 20k USD then it's a huge loss.

I don't think diverting your attention to another gambling activity will do you anything good. If I were you, I would seek other hobbies and other activities that will keep me preoccupied for the time being. You've already lost a considerable sum that I don't think it's worth it to push for more losses as you'll just end up being more depressed than you already are currently. You can also seek for help and intervention if you really want to get rid of that addiction. It's good that you're already noticing that something's wrong with you, as it is the most important step towards rehabilitation.

You need to stop gambling instead of looking for alternatives. He didn't mention which currency he used. If it's 20k USD then it's a huge loss. My guess is that it is in dollars, but we can only talk about a huge loss when we know the real income of that person. For someone who earns a lot, this amount may not be as significant as for someone who earns very little.

lost 20k in 2 days , used up all my profits from my portfolio , and i just wanted to keep on going . how you guys stop yourself from betting/gambling on casino ? looking for ways to bet on sportsbook but not on casino , but stake does not provide the option for that . ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) When it comes to gambling addiction then its a personal type of problem which means that you are the only ones who could solve it out.If you do find that you are already spending lots or tons of money in gambling activity then thats the time you should stop immediately because if you do tend to continue then situations do came even more worst.It doesnt matter if its involving casino or sports betting because on general sense of addiction then you would still spending tons of money if you dont have the good control of your finances.

it would take sincere determination if he wants to address his gambling addiction. better address it while he can still identify his problem and not denying it. because as he goes deep into gambling, he would find out that it is very hard to get out. better look for alternative activities rather than looking for sportsbooks that will address his requirements. he will receive a lot of suggestions, but at the end of the day, he will be the only one that can address the situation.

The general sense is indeed that you will keep losing tons of money with this gambling addiction problem, it's better to seek professional help aside from trying to cope up with yourself will, yeah it's you who can solve this problem but it will be faster and easier if there's a professional guides from someone who specialized this kind of cases. Plus the love and help of your family, the support will surely increase the chance of you keeping yourself busy away from this addiction. Both sports and casino gambling have same damaged inside your minds. Addictions are really tough to battle with. You need a strong will to solve this problem.

That money is gone now, you have to accept you made a mistake and do not chase your losses even further. With the destructive cycle that you're in all reason and rational thinking has gone. You need to stop gambling completely because it is clear you are fully tilted right now and are just leaking money all over the place. Avoid the internet entirely if that is where you're betting and find a new hobby that can take your mind off it. Go find some books to read, or visit some new places to clear your mind. Only you will be able to beat this addiction but forget about all the losses that lead up to this point - those memories will only hurt you if you keep repeating them, accept it and let your bad mistakes go.

Most of people do suggest the same thing but this is actually a problem that can only be resolved out by himself which means that neither he do listen out or would most likely ignore and go ahead on what hes been currently doing.Gambling addiction is something that hard to resist once you had been shackled with it. Leave when you do see that you are spending too much because if you dont able to stop then for sure you would suffer big problems that lies ahead.

You are addicted! The good thing is at least you realize that your addiction is real and it is might cause you harm. The first thing you should do is let your close ones know about your problem. They will be able to help you stop your addiction. Next you probably should contact one of those problem gambling helpline and get their help as soon as you can before you cause further damage to yourself. Don't forget to contact those casinos where you play and let them know that you are addicted to gambling. They will help you block your account and restrict access to their website.

^ Is there really a casino like this? They will block a user's account just to recover their addiction? Addicted gamblers should seek a professional psychiatrist that usually cures mental illness but first, I don't think you will be addicted if you know how to manage yourself. If OP can afford what he had lost now, probably financial status could not problem with him. Sorry to hear the OP lose but I think, there is nothing wrong if the amount that he used is the amount that he can afford.

Here is the finalize thoughts and last post that i will be made regarding on my betting addictions and about this post .
1. Lost 20k just in 2 days after 'touching' on slots . Before that i mostly just play on Sportsbet ( mainly UFC ) and do tradings most of the time . never really a heavy betters . Most of the time i just watch some streamers bet in twitch.com
2. 20k is alot not gonna lie . Although did not affect my life as i just used up my 'profits' in trading for the past few month, learnt from this mistake. And i was going to 'double-up' on trying to get back the money i lost in slots but stopped it . ( glad i did not redeposit again , if not 20k is might not the final amount here )
3. For Sportsbetting / Slots , i will take 1 month back and rethink on what happen in the last 2-3 days before back to gambling . From what thought and watching the post that you guys gave me , i mostly will stop on gambling for awhile especially slots. Side note : as I am a huge fighting fans (MMA) but usually just bet 100-500$ bets . The way i lost 20k is that i just tried to earn some huge wins by buying 'bonus' and not by rolling spins. Maybe this is way i lost so much in short amount of time .
Just chat with the support , Will start my exclusion after UFC 267. ( as I already placed my bets on it , and after the event will just withdraw from Stake and start my 1 month exclusion ) and back to my trading .
Thanks for the support and reply . Appreciate it and wanted to say , stay off from gambling or bet on what you are willing to lose. Will continue to update my post . Sorry for the bad english , as it was not my main language.
That's still quite good I guess that you've lost that amount as your profits. I don't know how much effort you've made that amount and how long exactly you've taken from doing it. And telling us that it's not going to ruin your life, that's a good thing to hear about because when there are gamblers that lost a huge amount, they're completely out of their minds and don't know what to do afterwards.

Understand that you'll get the $20k back as a matter of time. If you had that much money in the first place I'm 99% certain that you have the ability to generate that sort of income in a decent amount of time. However, it is time to wake up to the reality. Gambling is simply entertainment and will not give you long term gains. This applies to sportsbetting as well, unless you are doing arbitrage betting or actually have some basis in tipstering (unlikely from your behaviour). Treat it that way. Expect losses. If you expect anything more, you have the wrong mindset and you're bound to lose lots.

I know how its hard to have an addiction it's just a cringe feelings that has a strong urge for you to left what could be the way to become preoccupied or what you are doing and I can say it's just a matter of self control. It may be hard but if you just try harder it is worth it you just really need to divert your mind away from gambling and never ever visit a site or a places that reminds you to gamble because trust me, the urge is still there. You need to stay away from those places for a couple of months or more in order for you to stop your addiction.

If you want to keep going, that's your choice. For someone who affords to gamble an amount like that, I'm expecting they know what they are doing. And what do you mean by "Stake"? The Stake.com gambling platform? Aside from casinos, they are also a sportsbook. It's weird and impossible for me that you didn't see that on the site as a person that owns a decent amount of money.

He doesn't have to try harder, he has already said what he's planning to do and that's a good decision for him to make. He's already moved on and op did the right thing after losing this much. It may not be as much as the others have lost but to many of us it's already big, well, he seems well and good with it and can recover this through trading so good luck to you op.

You are already decided to keep going and all I can say is good luck. I will never suggest stopping gambling because that's your own will and you are the only one who should decide for that. Aside from that, I think you are still not in the status of being a crazy one although it's crazy to lose that 20k in 2 days. I hope that's not USD lol. There's a sportsbook option on Stake. You can check it at the upper left of the main page. Or just pick those famous sportsbooks on the Gambling section.

Gambling addiction is one of the major problem many gamblers face. They don't know how to control themselves, and always end up losing huge amount of money. Losing 20k in 2 days is really serious, and I think you have to control yourself when it comes to gambling. Playing it for fun and not a way of doubling your money, or you will definitely continue losing more money which might lead to depression. However, stoping gambling entirely is basically the best option.

I suggest that you take a break not just from casino but from gambling in general. Forget about both casino and sportsbook for now. I am doubting you can easily resist the urge to visit the casino if you are still exposed to online gambling. Exclusion from the casino feature on stake is not a strong way to stop your gambling urge. It is just a few clicks away and you already find yourself playing in some other casino or dice sites. If you are really serious in controlling your gambling loss, you should take a full gambling rest.

Totally . Decided to quit gambling for now ( after this weekend UFC ) as already placed my bet and once i started exclusion my money is stucked on stake. Will start my 1month/3month gambling exclusion once i withdraw my money from Stake.com. Yes ,it was dumb to go that much in gambling and 'chasing' my lost and snowballing to huge amount. Learnt from my mistake and hope no one do the same mistake like I did.
