Dana thought he lost $80k one night and his advice for gamblers

[Perfectbaby]

only someone with unlimited wealth can lose such an amount of money but is this also part of having fun?

when he plays while drunk, he thinks it's fun. but when he wakes up from his drunkenness and sees the amount of money he lost in gambling, he will still regret it. no matter how rich he is, maybe it's a small part of the money he has, but still collecting that much money must take hard work.

if you want to gamble, then avoid drinking first. if you are drinking then never think about gambling. whether it's in an online or physical casino, you still shouldn't lose control of your consciousness when gambling.

Not only in gambling but everything about life matter because when drunk and also anticipating in some other things makes someone entirely lose control of themselves that is why it's also not advisable to drink or getting drunk before driving, no ethics or law permits a drunker to go drive after being soaked with alcohol. In all, it's good to avoid drinking and gambling because one could lose control and senses of what they are doing to gambling where they would got drunk at the cost of gambling without knowing they are losing their life fortunes into gambling.

When you are drunk, you make a lot of irrational decisions because you are not totally in control of your actions and emotions. it is important that you refrain from any engagement that is perishable. He made the bad decision to engage in gambling while drunk and paid the price with such big-time loss, although it didn't matter much to him since he is rich and could afford to loose such amounts, but that does not undermine the fact that he behaved irresponsibly and such acts should be heavily discouraged among gamblers so healthy gambling activities can be sustained.

[Miles2006]

Why will anyone want to gamble at that state, sincerely speaking he made a mistake at that point. Alcohol is something people intake at their free will or relaxed time so i don’t expect anyone to be involved in any serious activity, it’s right op attached this topic with gambling since the victim made an expensive mistake also aside gambling life issues are more serious and needs quality attention. If anyone should make this mistake and wasting a huge amount when gambling under the influence of alcohol I believe the person can do worst in terms of other serious situation. Gambling is fun but I don’t think some people will stay comfortable losing a huge amount as that rather some might end up committing a murder, what’s more important is avoiding unnecessary mistake and taking corrections.

because when drunk people will lose their common sense and their thoughts will not be controlled, anything can happen without realizing it, if there is a choice between gambling or getting drunk, which is more dangerous between the two choices, I choose getting drunk which is very dangerous because anything can happen when you lose consciousness when drunk

[Su-asa]

Gambling is for everyone but I think rich people enjoy it more because they always have enough to spare although no one has an unlimited bankroll, even the rich can exhaust what they have if they get too wreckless. It's quite funny he thought he lost 80 thousand dollars not knowing it was actually 3 million dollars, this is why it's not advisable for you to get intoxicated when you are gambling it doesn't matter if you are a rich or poor gambler, being under the influence of drugs or alcohol can affect your cognitive reasoning and this can affect the decisions you make.

[Oluwa-btc]

Losing $3 million and thinking he lost $80000. Alcohol is not good for those that drink too much of it. I think he gambled on a land base casino where you can have fun and be given alcohol.

Very well said alcohol is not good for the weak they say and alongside gambling then talking about merging the both of them usually turn out to be harzardous and this is why it's not advisable for one who is depressed to take much of alcohol and as well gamble. Because at that state your 50% sure of what your doing and the decisions you make too and if you're not careful you might end everything in one minute under the influence of alcohol. I feel so bad for Dana but I still think he wasn't responsible enough cause if he has he would have just taken some shots of alcohol but it didn't end there he had to gamble on that same state which is too bad.

For the CEO of UFC, I don't think Dana would ever feel depressed. He can buy just about anything. He lost $8M in a blackjack game and back again the next day to gamble. He loves to gamble and show off his wealth to the public but he also is a smart businessman who ventures in different sports already and makes deals with the oil kingpins from Saudi. A million could be peanuts to him.

He is just a popular celebrity that's why we keep noticing but if he were just unknown, we wouldn't care to talk about him.

Although rich gamblers can spend more money but I believe, it is not a good way for them to enjoy gambling. Because after all, he is also unconscious because he is gambling when he is drunk and thus, if he is gambling when he is normal and not drunk, I am sure the gambler will not spend that much money. So, in this case it's about enjoying the hangover and not enjoying the gambling, because if they enjoyed gambling despite having great wealth they would know the limits of how much money they can spend on gambling. So yes, if gambling is for everyone, then we also can't just judge gambling only for the rich, because if a poor gambler can gamble with good control too of course the poor gambler will be able to enjoy gambling.

While I completely agree with whatever you said, I believe people who get heavily drunk barely stay conscious enough to understand what they are doing. I don't drink myself, but some people or friends do, and I have always asked them the question whether they remember the things they did when they were drunk when they became sober later on, and they said no, most of the things that a heavily drunk person doesn't stay in memory, even if it does, it will be very vague.

I remember this incident where a person took their clothes off, stood on top of a table, and started dancing, and this all happened in a casino. And this is only one, there are thousands of such incidents and these incidents only tell us that a drunk person doesn't understand what they are doing because they are not in their right senses at that moment.

Just want to share.

He was interviewed on Lex Fridman's channel just today. Funny how he thought it was just $80K but it's actually $3M. Rich men lose more when they get drunk playing blackjack.

He advises about winning and losing in gambling and if you get depressed because of it, gambling is not for you. He meant winning and losing are part of the game where great things and bad things happen.

These sort of high profile celebrity personalities can often get a free pass on bad behavior. The casino is not that bothered by voiding a few bets for high rollers and will throw a lot of goodwill gestures their way if they know they have much deeper pockets. They know someone like Dana will have huge connections and could possibly bring in other high rollers that would make a lot more for the casino in the long run. He is probably keeping quiet about the fact that they waved some of his bets and he was not actually 3 million down in one evening. Beyond that he could use his platform to actually warn people off going to that casino, so they are playing a very delicate game and want to keep him happy, there is a hidden side he will not tell his listeners.

As business owner which is something that runs a casino or any other correlated industry then you would really be thinking up on this one most likely. You wont really be targeting into something that brings out that
temporal profit just because some big personalities had lose up big time because of getting drunk. It would really be coming up into your mind that giving off some cashbacks or trying out to have that loss back at least on which we cant really be able to deny that this one really gives out that happy feeling inside or having that kind of emotion on which it will really be leading up with having that positive feedback and impressions.
As an owner then you would really be going for the long term game and not for that short term ones. Even if they would really be giving back some of those amounts but they do know that they could really be able to
get it back in no time. Just like on what you have mentioned that Dana is a huge bettor or spender in their gambling activity and on the moment that he is really that making some good experience towards your platform or business then you might really be able to get some recommendations on which it could be advised into his friends and that means some huge profits out there. This is how business works and it will really be just that normal that there would be business owners will really be prioritizing that end game than on making money on point.

We should not be gambling under influence regardless of what the influence are because all influences are bad. We should not gamble under the influence of alcohol, drugs or peer pressure. Gambling should be an activity that we do with our clear heads so that we can know the decision that we are taking and not to make a mistake that might affect us in the future. Most gamblers lose more when they are betting under an influence and this is mostly alcohol or drugs. Losing $3 million is a big loss regardless of how rich the individual losing the money is. Drake that gambles too much large sum also gets affected after losing those amounts and that is why he does not do it everyday or weekends. If we keep losing our money, we are going to be broke very soon and then we will regret all the mistakes we are making.

a very funny but very sad situation, just because he was drunk he lost a lot of money, and don't casinos have rules for their customers like maximum bets, how could the casino be willing to take so much money from someone who is drunk, clearly the player will not be aware of his bets

[Nwada001]

because when drunk people will lose their common sense and their thoughts will not be controlled, anything can happen without realizing it, if there is a choice between gambling or getting drunk, which is more dangerous between the two choices, I choose getting drunk which is very dangerous because anything can happen when you lose consciousness when drunk

Such a choice should not even be given to anyone, especially when it's a choice of getting addicted to gambling or getting drunk, because both are bad habits that can lead someone to commit the unthinkable.
 
The same way a gambling addict can do some things that they won't be proud of, that's the same way a drunk person can unconsciously take an action that can leave a long-term negative effect on their life.

[Raflesia]

Not only in gambling but everything about life matter because when drunk and also anticipating in some other things makes someone entirely lose control of themselves that is why it's also not advisable to drink or getting drunk before driving, no ethics or law permits a drunker to go drive after being soaked with alcohol. In all, it's good to avoid drinking and gambling because one could lose control and senses of what they are doing to gambling where they would got drunk at the cost of gambling without knowing they are losing their life fortunes into gambling.

The point is if we are in an unstable state, especially with our thoughts, we should not do anything like driving or betting. This unstable state allows us not to think about the big risks that will occur while we basically do not want any problems to occur, even though sometimes we have to take risks, it does not mean that taking risks is the solution. With us being under the influence of alcohol, it is possible that we will do things that are beyond our own consciousness. If we really want to gamble, then we should be able to see our own condition, try to be in a good condition, whether it is mental or otherwise. With the reality of gambling that is only likely to make us lose even when we are conscious, it is real, so don't gamble while unconscious, it can make us do things that are high risk, such as not thinking about the risks.

[Reatim]

Why will anyone want to gamble at that state, sincerely speaking he made a mistake at that point.

The real question is why would not anyone want to? That is the point of alcohol. It makes you lose all inhibitions and makes you do things you otherwise would not do if you were sober. No one drunk is in the right state of mind and at that point he probably can't control himself anymore and he can't say that he is making a mistake at that very moment.

Alcohol is something people intake at their free will or relaxed time so i don’t expect anyone to be involved in any serious activity.

Alcohol can be taken at any time. I am not saying it should but many people drink even if it is not exactly relaxed time as you call it. Most drink when celebrating. Or just going to a party for no reason. Some even drink when they are sad or angry. Many emotions are associated with drinking and can eventually lead to bad choices such as gambling too much.

a very funny but very sad situation, just because he was drunk he lost a lot of money, and don't casinos have rules for their customers like maximum bets, how could the casino be willing to take so much money from someone who is drunk, clearly the player will not be aware of his bets

Gambling and drunk will ruin your life fast without realizes of what is happen to you. Gambling itself can make you lose your money plus when you drunk, you will not think much if keep playing gambling can make you bankrupt fast. Dan still lucky because he still have money and not like other people who lose all of their money in gambling table.

It is a lesson for us to stay away from drunk when playing gambling so we can still aware of what already happen. We can stop ourselves if the situation is not good for us. We must avoid the big lose by quit gambling immediately before something bad happen to us.

It happened to me, many times, gambling and drinking is the worse that you could do. Because when you are drunk, you decision are clouded and all you want to do is to go all in, bet big, YOLO style which is very back.

It is a lesson for us to stay away from drunk when playing gambling so we can still aware of what already happen. We can stop ourselves if the situation is not good for us. We must avoid the big lose by quit gambling immediately before something bad happen to us.

We need to be sober so that we can think clearly, specially in games like black jack. We need to concentrate because one mistakes, you are going to lose big. And moving forward, if I'm going to drink, I'm no longer going to play either landbase or online, because it's really dangerous to me as I'm going to be out of control.

[Kelward]

He advises about winning and losing in gambling and if you get depressed because of it, gambling is not for you. He meant winning and losing are part of the game where great things and bad things happen.

The bottom line is that anything that will make you not to gamble responsibly should be totally avoided otherwise it can lead to depression, which is a straight way to addiction. Many things can lead to gambling depression and addiction, one of them is gambling without reasoning like when the gambler is drunk. It's said that we shouldn't drink and drive, I'll also add that we shouldn't drink and gamble because you can accidentally over gamble with more than the amount that you can afford to loose. There's no refund when you over gamble and if you're unlucky and loses everything, you can end up poor and probably in dept too. Responsible gambling must be practiced at all times to avoid being depressed that can lead to addiction.

[YOSHIE]

He advises about winning and losing in gambling and if you get depressed because of it, gambling is not for you. He meant winning and losing are part of the game where great things and bad things happen.

Yes, that's definitely the fact that happens with gambling, the advice is reasonable, stop gambling if the gambling activity makes someone depressed, meaning gambling is not worth fighting for as the main game for us.

In fact, some people change their judgment about gambling, they think that many people lose in gambling and win is delayed, that is very wrong, gambling never promises us victory, So think of gambling as entertainment and games only for us and don't use the money that should be used for the family to gamble, that way we can avoid depression a little when defeat befalls us.
