What ugly incident or occurrence have you ever experienced in gambling?

You can tap on the image to watch the full video. It was crazy to see this kind of luck slip from a gambler's hands simply because his device malfunctioned. It was funny to me, but at the same time, it saddens me. I wonder how bad the gambler felt.

Have you been faced with this kind of gambling problem? If not this particular one, what other annoying incident have you ever experienced in gambling?

On that video, what happened was that a dude from South Africa was gambling on a casino site known as Betway. The guy staked ZAR 277.08, and when he started the round, he got about 4,870.24x multiplier, which doubled his staked amount up to ZAR 73,059, which is about $3,900+. he lost the money because he was unable to cash out before he crashed.

In my case, I have not actually experienced any situation like that, apart from the usual disappointment you will experience with a club after you place a bet on them, believing so firmly that nothing will stop that club from winning, but they end up losing.

You should be careful, this is not a lost or missed winning because at crash games you need to click before the multiplier ends to be able to get something. This is the goal of the game actually. So if he would have been able to tap when he wanted we don't know how much he would have won. On the video we see it taping at the beginning when the multiplier was way under the max one and the one onto the picture so I guess he would just won a small amount if everything was working good actually.

f the casino saw and verified their story is true they may send them a gift or a prize for their loss because they were trying to stop and cash out on a huge multiplier and couldn’t due to an error. The casino may do some promotion on this incident but they are too big for these kind of things I guess.

I don't think so. The error was not because of the site but it was clear the gadget became unresponsive at that time. But the user can try it and check what will be the response of the site. Show the video and any proof, and see if the site can consider giving him a small token as a prize.

I  never experienced something like that but if I experienced it, I need to accept the fact that I'm busted.

I might also have trouble sleeping for a week or two lol.

I see the downturn in the supposed winning but I'm left with question.
How was ti arrived at, that the device malfunctioned? Was it an already ailing device that always malfunctioned and this was just part of the regular malfunctioning?

How are they sure that it was not the platform's intention to freeze the buttons and make it look like a deviec malfunction?

Too many riddles in the gambling space left unattended to.

This is wired one to me,because after seeing this was luck to us.But we can’t withdrew the funds which is almost 3900$,this enough for the people to live the normal life for the period of two years.So the gamblers must understand the difference between the money and the game.The bug cause this one,he may excited by seeing the point.But if the money is not real when he come to understand it,he may consider as the bad luck of the day.Even if he imagined the happiness of the money,it will kill their real happiness in life.The money loss in the gambling may hurt us, but it can be recovered in the future game.But the peace of mind is more important one.

It's hard to programmed something like that for only a specific user. If a malfunction is happened during that time, expect that other players will also have the same experience. A crash game if I'm not mistaken is a game where it consume large memory consumption as it was a live game.

There is also one thing I see that might be caused of the problem. The internet might suddenly got slow and that can make the whole screen unresponsive and will only be active once again after the network return. I can say that because there's a game I played that when my internet is slow, the whole screen is progressing but none of the buttons are working. Just my suspicion.

I won’t call mine ugly but it was urggh. I played a game similar to what you posted. I had the option to take out your money anytime and the flying thing could fly away with your money too. I won about $100 by gradually winning using my initial $10. I took out the money so I won’t be tempted. Eventually, I foolishly deposited it back little by little till I lost it all and lost even extra of up to $50. I laugh about it now but it wasn’t funny at the time.

Once you have a win and you withdraw it, I noticed that losses has been triggered henceforth. Even if you deposit it, you'd still incur losses. Now, I can't tell if it is a psychological thing but I noticed it has always repeated itself, always.

Have you been faced with this kind of gambling problem? If not this particular one, what other annoying incident have you ever experienced in gambling?

I once played Crash, my habit is always to make 100x cashout and manually stop when I guess I will win. one day I had a bad connection which I couldn't stop the button manually, so the game kept going until I didn't know what was next. After restarting the connection and quitting the game, I opened it again, and surprise, my balance increased to $498 from my previous balance of $5, that's a great fortune due to the mall function of the internet. I am so lucky when compared to the person in the video, I don't what he was feeling when failed on almost get a big win.

~snip~

Of course it is very painful, especially since the money is ready to be disbursed but the device is not functioning properly. Even though getting a multiplier above 1000 is very difficult because the percentage is very small, maybe below 0.01%

This is an annoying moment I experienced that happened a few weeks ago at bc.game, not a huge multiplier but the difference was only 0.01. WTF moment for me

But in my opinion the most annoying moment is when we get a big win but are greedy and don't withdraw the winnings until all the winnings go back to the casino and we don't withdraw anything. Things like this sometimes make me regret why I didn't withdraw my winnings first and then play again

[Lida93]

Hehehe – sorry for the laughter. 

Lol 😂, the expression on the video is quite laughable but it not a mockery.

Dramatic and hilarious as the video may seem it is a painful experience. Myself I almost got tempted to laugh at first but then I just got the tickle inside that this is no joke.

That's really so unlucky that you can see in front of your eyes the amount that can help you in many ways. I can't really help but laugh at their reaction, I don't know the language but seems like they are frustrated

I actually felt their frustration too in that video. Just like Lida93 said, that guy might have been gambling for a long time and losing money, but that day was actually when his luck was supposed to overflow, but his phone messed up the chance for him. In this kind of situation, they say opportunity only comes once. It might actually take a long time before he can see this kind of opportunity again.

What a frustration indeed!

Opportunities like this are rare and it's mostly likely that before he can get it again he would have made numerous losses overtime considering how this crash game is being designed.

He definitely would have gotten a new phone if he had been able to get that cash out.

You might be right about this, because I can vividly remember a close friend who won some good amount of bet and the first item he bought was a laptop. According to him, his old laptop has been misbehaving in function and since he gambles more often online using a laptop that was what he thought necessary to purchase before any other thing.

So bringing this back to the case of Op it could be that young man didn't had the money yet to either repair or get himself a new phone and his hope is on a win he can make from his gambling which unfortunately for him this ugly experience had to betide him.

From what I get as a take home here is that we shouldn't depend on gambling for a real source of income or making money so we don't cast our hopes on items we need to get in our daily living to be gotten only when we get lucky to make a win from the bets we make. It's a wrong mentality to go with.

His mobile device may have given him signs of malfunctioning long ago before now but maybe he has just ignored them and chosen to continue using it like that. It is not only that he did not have the money to change, but it may also just be procrastination that some people suffer from and very severe with some people. It will be an experience he will always remember as a gambler, and a lesson to other gamblers that gambling with a malfunctioning mobile device can cost them a win on a day when they least expect it.

Exactly my thoughts.  The phone malfunction didn't just start that day, he has experienced those signs even before he decided to gamble with that device. He had two risks to deal with,  gambling related risk and his malfunctioned device. This is actually an issue that would have been avoided if he took precautionary measures before time. It's really painful to face that kind of disappointment at the very wrong moment, atleast now, it will prompt him to repair or change his phone. I have not really been in any of those ugly situations before except for days I lose my bets and it's really okay because I had already prepared my mind for a win or loss. No hard feelings.

The lesson here is quite simple, if you are managing important information on a device or you are managing a significant amount of money through it then you need to make sure your device is working as intended, and if this is not the case then you need to replace it immediately.

Since cases like this are very common, especially in this market, as how many times we have heard of a person that lost access to their wallet because something happened to the device they were using and they lose their coins because they did not had a backup of their seed words?

[Strongkored]

Have you been faced with this kind of gambling problem? If not this particular one, what other annoying incident have you ever experienced in gambling?

such as an unlucky gambler, maybe he needs a few days to accept his misfortune.
But I wonder if the device just didn't work at that time. because if so, only in that case, maybe the problem was in the casino, so it was a bug and other gamblers who played the same game at the same time experienced the same thing, meaning no one could cash out.
Hopefully, he can accept it as a normal thing and not trigger him to gamble more because he feels that luck will soon come to him because he sees a big win that is right in front of his eyes but cannot be achieved because there are obstacles. As far as I can remember, I have never experienced this, and I think that is a rare event and the lesson is to use good device and fast internet connection if you don't want something like that to happen.

[Hirose UK]

Bad events are always present and experienced by all gamblers without exception, I am sure whether it really makes the gambler devastated or just simple failure, it must have become daily occurrence that every gambler always experiences.

I also had quite series of bad things happen just as you mentioned, only within sports betting.
I gambler who likes multi-betting or combining several matches into one bet which can give quite large odds.
When I managed to win it was an extraordinary victory because I got much bigger profit than I imagined, especially when there was match between two strong teams, the odds could be even bigger.
Failure when all matches have been won and one match remains at the end of the bet but fails to win, there is an opportunity to make cashout but when the match has started the cashout feature has disappeared.
This is one of those failures that makes little disappointed but that how gambling sites work which always have an edge, they know that what gambler betting on will definitely fail so they close the cashout feature and let gamblers suffer defeat.
It just that we don't need to feel really deep disappointment and we have to be able to accept it because that actually how gambling sites work.

That's definitely one of the saddest moments in someone's life, that multiplier together with the money that they've put on that game is definitely going to be something that will turn around the life of that person but then as misfortune would have it, it denied that person that moment to cash out. Has the person checked if that's the device that's got the problem or it was the website, this is just my conspiracy theory or mindless thought but I do believe that there's a possibility that the website's got something to do with it you know, I don't know if they can do that but that's a possibility. Thankfully, this hasn't happened to me before and I hope that there's not a possibility that it can happen to me.

[irhact]

Lesson learned: Making use of gadgets that's are in good working conditions should be what every gambler shouldn't take for granted as a malfunction we are managing from our gadget can cost us that money we have been spending time and energy chasing after as gamblers.

I think this goes far more than just gambling, we shouldn't be using malfunctioning phones. When our phone gets spoiled we should replace it or trade it for a better one in a good condition. If we don't have money to add to buy a newer phone then we can go for a lesser phone in a good condition. We should stop managing and put our devices in good condition as that's what  is giving us money therefore we should take care of it very well.

Are we going to drive our car In a bad condition, no I don't think so as we'll repair it to put it in a good condition therefore we should do the same thing to our phones that's making us money. I had a bad experience when I was trading actively. My phone malfunction and made me to not be able to sell and I lost a big profits I was suppose to take. Since that accident I don't joke with the condition of my phone as I try to make sure it's in good health.

That's one of the most unfortunate or saddest moment for gamblers though, that kind of missed opportunity. I do have like that kind of experience, I mean, playing online roulette when suddenly it might be my internet connection as the device hang.

And when I came back then number that I wanted to almost bet with big money was then hit and then with a good multiplier to boot (Lightning Roulette). I almost throw my mobile phone that time. But I can't do anything as I can't get it back.

[Outhue]

That's too bad, he would have been so happy at first, but only to realize that he can't cash out, this is going to mendle with his head for a long time, such thing haven't happened to me, and I won't like seeing such thing happen.

Another thing is I am someone who use small amount always, even if I win big and I am unable to cash out I won't be that sad, but I could stop using such casino, it means that the platform is not reliable.

This thing happened to me years back when I was new to futures trading, I don't know how to use stop loss then and I relied on myself to stop the take and take profit, my phone malfunctioned and I had to restart, on doing so the trade already took me out and lost all my money, that was when I decided to learn how to use stop loss in trading, but I have never experience such in gambling.

No I haven't too. And I guess this should be a MUST on every live betting session.
Each time I have a bet that need to be monitored, I use at least 2-3 devices (charged/updated) with 3 different internet connection available and I have an "ups" at home just to avoid any interruption of electricity.

the one I remember is mistakenly putting all in on poker while having a crappy hand, what's worse is that it has happened multiple times to me now.

that is tragic, seeing $3,900+ slipping through your hands and you can't do anything to stop it must be extremely frustrating. that guy needs to upgrade his phone if he doesn't want this incident to happen again.

Yeah that guy should I think invest on a much capable phone for gambling that does not lag or maybe his internet connection needs upgrade so next time he has to play things might work well and it surely won't happen again. I can also see that he has this excitement and the adrenaline that might also be the case of over tapping that withdraw button that results in betting it all that and ends up losing.
