What is your experience on virtual betting?

[Lida93]

I dislike sports virtual betting to the extend I can't stand anyone that is into it because it's just one of the fastest means to lose so much amount of funds in minutes while still giving the bettor a feeling of hope that the next game could be your next lucky win, but it never gets to happen. It's an easily addictive sport betting that is very hard to quit from when compared to the normal sport betting that we make bets on and wait for a long moment to see the end result while still catching fun from watching the game.

When I placed a bet for the first time, I actually won ten times the amount I had deposited; however, as time went on, the urge to deposit more money and make bigger profits took over—but things didn't go the way I wanted them to.
Before long, I had wiped out my entire balance. I deposited money again, only to lose it once more. Then, thinking I could secure a sure win, I started placing bets with larger stakes, but the outcome remained the same.
In the end, I came to my senses and never deposited money again.

That is the best advice I can give you: never deposit money again. Just accept the loss.

I had to use my last money at hand to try my luck of betting to see if could multiply it so that it would help me sustain till my little salary are being paid out.

You won, but you could have lost right at the beginning. Was what you won so little that you couldn't be satisfied and couldn't support yourself until you received your salary, as you said? In the end, I believe it didn't solve your problem.

I prefer betting on real sports...

No matter what kind of bet it is, I’ve never dared to gamble with my last bit of money even in a situation like yours, OP, where you’re about to get paid soon. Still, this is a bad approach. The fear is that once you become addicted to this kind of scenario, the next time you find yourself in the same situation, you’ll be even more willing to bet your last bit of money. even if, for example, there’s no paycheck coming anytime soon this approach will most likely end up causing problems.

I believe greed was one of the reasons why he didn’t stop.
As a gambler, if you are greedy, you will always lose the ones you have won, the only way to enjoy gambling and win some money is to remove greed from your mind.
If he was not greedy, he would have taken the one he won the first time and go home.

Before, when I win some money, I always continue gambling but when I notice it usually cost me the money I won I stopped doing it, right now when I gamble and win some money, I will stop gambling for that Day.

Live or real sports is actually more better than virtual.

I have been trying to let this slide out of my mind and my head but it seems that my head is that too strong or stubborn to let things go out of me quickly. This is my next experience on virtual games. I had a little amount which I was expecting salary at the next 2-3 days if not more than that self, I had to visit a physical betting shop where I had to use my last money at hand to try my luck of betting to see if could multiply it so that it would help me sustain till my little salary are being paid out. Used the money with hope to multiply it, after I placed the first bet, I have 3x of the amount at this point I thought luck was already on me so I have to stake a bit here maybe as luck aren't to be predictable when I placed higher amounts the initial winning and my entire balance was gone at this point I am being left out with absolutely nothing.

Your experience was not different from every other gamblers that been gambling on this kind of games. Do not expect to get easy luck when you are gambling on virtual because there is no way you can determine what will be the outcome of your bet until the algorithm show you the result of the bet.

You need to know when to leave betting since you don't have a big bet stakes so you need to minimize the amount you should be using when gambling on a single bet. Virtual games are very addictive including the soccer and the horse racing. You may not have the same luck everytime when you bet so you need to be prepared for anything lose.

I have a feeling that you treat gambling not as entertainment, but as a way to solve a financial problem. That is quite a concerning sign. However, the fact that you describe this situation in detail and realize that you made a mistake is a positive thing. I can see that this loss affected you deeply. And I hope this situation serves as a lesson for you: money that is needed for daily expenses should better not be used for betting at all, even if it seems like there is a chance to increase it quickly.

From your story the real problem isn’t about virtual gambling or not, but the problem is that you have bad habits when it comes to gambling. From what you’ve shared, it can be concluded that you have mistakes in managing finances, you can’t control your emotions, and you are greedy.  

Your mistake was gambling with the little money you had left in your pocket while your salary was still far away, intending to double it. You did manage to do it, but because of your emotions and greed you ended up losing everything. If your gambling mindset is like this with no limits or goals, of course your gambling will be a mess. Even if you still have this kind of mindset, any type of game you play will result in the same thing losses.

I'm not into virtual games and from what guys tells me about the games I know that they are very addictive more than sports bet and the regular casino games like slot and if you're addicted to virtual games you'll stay locked in until you run out of all your money. I want to focus on the angle that you're talking about, it is irresponsible for a gambler to use the last amount on him to gamble because you don't have a single control over the game that you're playing and there is no guarantee that you will win.

Gambling responsibly means that you're fully prepared for it by having a budget that you plan to spend, the amount should be what you are capable to lose. When you gamble with money that you're meant to survive on or use amount that you cannot easily give out you would be under pressure to win which can lead to chasing loses and ultimately getting addicted.

I'm not a big fan of betting on virtual sports. When I play these games, I can't use my analytical skills, my intuition, or my knowledge of sports teams. Virtual sports are simulations. They're essentially just slot machines. The odds of winning in these types of games are always less than 50%. 🙋

Furthermore, the author of this thread, in my opinion, made a critical mistake. He started gambling when he was desperately short of money. From my own experience, I know that gambling in such a psychological state means a guaranteed loss. Some people attribute this to mysticism. Others believe that the human brain functions differently in such psychological states. In any case, gambling should never be done in such situations. It's the law!

[Cossyblack]

I don't have any personal experience with virtual betting, I've promise myself never to get entangled with virtual betting because I've seen how a lot of people suffer dew to virtual betting. I remember a day where a man received he's salary, but because the salary was small and it will not be enough for things he actually needed, he made a choice by playing virtual hoping that he could at least double the money. But this man lost everything just within 1 hour because he was staking high. That was the first day I saw a man crying so bitterly because he's wife just gave birth and he needed that money for baby things. This man couldn't go home and stayed at the betting shop till their closing time.

So because of all this heartbreaking experience I've come across, I swear never to get close to virtual. And I feel this virtual betting comes with some kind of spirit, because I don't see any reason why you're losing non stop but cannot quit for the day. Some people in my country spend their whole day in betting shop playing virtual.

I don't feel sorry for that man at all for losing all his money at such a critical time because he didn't gamble responsibly. I only feel sorry for his wife who was at home waiting and hoping that husband will bring some stuffs back home that she and her baby would need to sustain. Some gamblers never learn untill the hard way,I believe from that moment,the man will start to avoid gambling with money for his essentials. For me, I don't see anything bad with playing virtual games as long as you don't use money that is meant for your essentials to bets,many have cashed out big from virtual sports although they still lose sometimes but they will not feel it if the money that they are betting with is what they can afford to lose.

Virtual game is one of the games I always liked playing before, and seriously, my experience was very bad. That is the reason why I later quit it.during the period I was involved in virtual games, any amount of money that came into my hands, especially when the money was not much, I would like to visit the virtual game shop and try to make some money. Sometimes, I did have luck, but my bad days were really much higher than my good days in virtual games.So, the day I decided to stop playing virtual games was the day I lost money that was supposed to be used for important things. When i visited the shop to play, I decided to use only the extra amount I had with me, apart from the money I had budgeted for something.

When I started, I first won and tried again. The second time, I lost, and that was how I continued losing until the extra amount I wanted to use was gone. Since I had no more money, the only money left was the money I had budgeted to use for something important.That was how I decided to touch the money again, and I continued losing. I was just chasing my losses, and that was how I lost all the money.It was a really big regret for me because I ended up borrowing money to solve the problem I was supposed to solve with the money I had lost.

[JoyMarsha]

One thing about betting that some people don't understand is that luck doesn't always shine on someone. Learning to take a break when on a winning streak will save one from big losses that are to come.

Many gamblers seem to forget in a hurry that their winning is a trap set for them in gambling. If care is not taken, they will lose all they have got.

Virtual betting, I haven't seen what finishes one's money like that. It can make you win some money in few minutes, still take more than that from you in those same minutes of being happy. I have had stories of people it has rendered financially hopeless within some space of time after they have won big from it.

[Zackz5000]

The worse thing that will happen to any man is getting addicted in to virtual games, though when i was in school i have tried it severally to see if i can be winning in other to get my feeding money from it but instead of winning i keep losing the one i have.

I have also seen students gambling with there school fees just to get some multiple of it but never it never end well at the end, people believe they can make quick money from betting on virtual games since it doesn't take more than a minute to see the results, i prefer betting on normal games than risking my money by betting on virtual games control by what i don't know.

Since you lost the last money in your hand I would say you did wrong because you didn't win but it would have been a right decision if you did won. Ordinarily, using your home and abroad money to try luck on gambling is really insane because you are at a higher chance of losing than winning, this is the kind of mindset some people carried to gamble thinking God will help them FYI God doesn't care if that is your last money and why didn't you stop the moment you had 3x your initial Capital.

[Popkon6]

Whether it is virtual games or any other games, it doesn't matter, if you had bet the amount of money you can afford to lose, you would have definitely enjoyed gambling. You are expressing your sorrow in the place where you would enjoy it, it is completely your fault, there is nothing wrong with gambling.

Decided to share if you or anyone out there had this similar experience with virtual betting?

I played virtual betting a long time ago, but now I don't like it anymore, because I love to play more updated games. I play all these games that are new and beautiful, I don't play a game for a long time. I keep trying and waiting to see something new, if you bet greedily, then you will definitely lose your money because the desire to get money is working in you. Since the first bet was enough for you, you have prepared yourself to enter the second time,
it means that you have created greed for your money. The reflection of which will be laughing, you have lost all your money, give up the greed of gambling, otherwise a more terrible situation will arise.

[JunaidAzizi]

I don't know why everyone keeps experimenting with their luck again and again. If you get the 3x, what’s the reason for trying your luck again? You have to stay away from gambling you have no control over yourself. We keep saying again and again that you shouldn't fall into the greed trap and never gamble with money you can't afford to lose. But you gamble with your last hope money, you take the risk and get 3x of it, then you should walk away with that money. But you prefer greed and end up leaving the casinos with nothing in hand.

In my local dialect, it is called "Ogbu ngwa ngwa" Which means "fast killer". Virtual games is the worst way to try multiplying money. I remember my days as a student, I mistakenly spent part of my money meant for a tuition payment and attempted virtual to balance it up, but lost it all instead. In 2017, I lost $3k in less than 48 hours to virtual soccer and while I was complaining of my loss, A fellow looser was confirming to me that even if virtual soccer paid him $20k, that he has not recovered half of his losses. I made a resolution right there that I was never going to play virtual soccer again(This is only a small chapter of my addiction story). Virtual games did me dirty, but I'm glad I survived it.

Virtual sports really dealt with me, i even said to myself that I'm not going to talk about my experience in virtual sports because I usually feel bad whenever I talk about it. But I would like to share it here so that other people's can also learn from my mistake. However, I have been betting on virtual sports for years now probably 5-6 years or there about, I could remember the first time I started betting on virtual sports then it was very interesting and fun but as time goes on that's how I began to loss the fun, what made me Loss it is when I look back to see how much money I have Lost so far. I was like; if this money was invested in something there's no way I will not get profited from that investment, after considering all of that I started gambling for profit with the hope that I will win back those money I lost but funny enough that I was even adding more to it, most of the time i spend 30k NG currency or more. I was finding it hard to make savings even when I forced myself to do that, maybe after some days or hours I will be tempted to try one more luck and I will just do it without even giving it a second thought In the process of trying one more luck I usually get stuck up in the game, it get to a point where I realized that I'm addicted to gamble, then I decide to stop, by then I have Lost a huge amount of money. I can't advice anyone to play virtual sports due to the risk involve, football sports is much more better than virtual sports. So anyone who wants to gamble should stick to football game and disregard anything that gives instant result.

Indeed I haven’t seen a thread about virtual betting in this section before, I thought it is just in my side that we do virtual betting; but I am happy to see this thread now and I can see people are voicing out their experience.

Virtual betting has been a hell for me, anytime I tried betting on virtual, it usually don’t end well, although I usually get some profit once I started, but after some games, it usually always a big loss because the game is usually working with emotions, and it seems like no one can outsmart them, they will always take your money from you, and many people are addicted to virtual game, and its addiction is always bad, in fact, it is the real gambling addiction.
