Old people: "young people are addicted to their screens!"
Also old people:
At least young ppls screens won’t generally lose your house 😂..they sure are trying to change that though with sports gambling
@@tomsnowden6201idk man have you ever heard of NFTs
@@Kexiled oh no, the NFT games…
Stories like this are the reason I think we need low-stakes casinos where you don't play with real money and just win silly plastic prizes like at the two-penny arcades. Sort of like methadone for gambling addicts.
I remember one story someone posted of how their grandparents had a retro slot machine and they'd play it as a kid and see exactly how rigged it is and never touched a real one. I've been considering whether or not it'd be a good idea like you said but yeah, I think so: those who couod be deterred are, and those who get addicted can get early intervention.
@EddieM1994 no no he's got a point
That's Dave & Busters essentially.
But then the casino bosses don’t get money
my friend you have described an arcade.
I’ve won more than $50,000 like 4 times now and just kept playing until it was all gone. It’s a really awful feeling not being able to stop, and constantly thinking about it.
Gambling addiction is scary, I used to but I'm lucky I get off easily because I accidentally bet my entire paycheck once, it stressed me tf out once I found out. Double the paycheck was nice and all, but the possibility of losing entire paycheck traumatized me and made me quit for good. Been a decade since I quit.
You weren't addicted.
The fact that they even are regulars at a casino is sad
Yes. You lose as soon as you go in the door.
Yeah casinos can be fun once or twice a year, but if the staff at a casino knows who you are its a problem.
I listened to this while getting ready for work. I’d say the most depressing thing was listening to people not care about family members dying, but the most depressing part was how often it apparently happens.
When you are living in a world where money talks this tends to be the result.
@@jismeraiverhoevenI live in that world. I've called myself a whore because I will do a lot to earn money. I wouldn't do anything like these people. If you think money is what these people are after, you're not paying attention. One of these stories is about someone winning 30K and losing it all. That's what is so sad about these gamblers.
They aren't chasing money. They are chasing a "high". They aren't just bad with money. They need to "win". They're after the dopamine. If they were just desperate for money there wouldn't be as many stories of people winning big only to lose it all.
That's what an addiction does to you. It hollows you out of anything any of your family and friends ever loved and leaves you a You-Shaped flesh suit covering a walking sickness. Your addiction is your God now. Your addiction is your EVERYTHING now.
Some people are not worth caring anyway, I don't see why is that sad.
@@gteixeira
Sometimes people make the worst people.
I worked at a casino for over 5 years as a cashier and I have had so many people upset at me because I stole all their money when they come up and turn in chips or tickets. The saddest story for me was a regular of ours and her husband would come in 2-3 times a week to have fun and play a certain set of slot machines that was always in front of the cage/cashier area. At some point we noticed they didn't show for a couple weeks and we thought it was strange but figured that they were probably on vacation. Fast forward 2 more weeks and the wife shows up and you can tell something was wrong. Come to find out, her husband died in a car accident and she was still devastated. It got to the point one night where she got so drunk she peed herself and passed out and fell out of her chair. She eventually got banned from the casino due to the amount of times she would just pee herself at her chair and crying. I don't know what happened to her ever since but I do hope she is okay.
Damn thank you for sharing dude, through your experience i would never ever gamble my money!!
I only went to a casino one I lost $60 in about 15 min and all I wanted to do was take out more money and keep playing. That was the moment I realized I could not go to casinos ever again
Great choice, imagine how many thousands of $ you've won by doing that decision.
I used to live pretty close to the Canadian side of the Niagara area while in school a few years back. My parents took me to the city there for my birthday, and my dad took me to a casino and showed me around (not entirely sure why, but it was interesting). I used one of the machines ONCE and loved the thrill of it. I haven't done anything gambling-related since.
Well done. My dad was always employed in decent jobs, but never had any money, due to gambling. Depending on how his betting went, decided on how we ate each week. When he retired he would borrow money from everyone he knew; I must have given him close to £15k over the years. I never took the chance of even trying once.
I had a similar experience. I had $100 that I was prepared to lose. I sad down at a $15 blackjack table. I lost my first 5 hands. I was just thinking, "man I was prepared to lose this money, but I was hoping I'd at least get an hour or twos worth of entertainment out of it."
I’m the opposite, I go in with $20, and if I lose it I’m like “flip this crap, let’s ditch this joint fellas”
As someone who used to live in Las Vegas, none of this surprises me. A shockingly large number of people self-end when they lose big. It happens more often than any casino will ever admit.
I bet Lake Mead is chock full of self-enders (and people who crossed the mafia, but that's a different Reddit thread).
Me and my wife went to the casino once just to look around on a road trip we were on. I hadn't intended to gamble but found my favorite slot machine so I chucked in $100 I didn't really wanna spend, played it down to 60 and was about to cut my losses when I won $50. I pulled it out and used the $10 profits to go get us ice cream lol.
That’s how it always starts. Bet if u go back you’ll lose that 100 then put in another 100 thinking you’ll make up for ur losses and still be able to afford ice cream lol
I generally don't gamble what I'm not willing to throw away. I only lost $500 gambling during my week in Vegas cuz that was the limit I set myself. Usually I'm happy just to make $20-40 cuz it can pay for my dinner or whatever
@@greenagoo nice. The first few times I went to Vegas I’d only take $500. This was back in 2014-16 where u can find $15 bj tables on weekends. Now I’ve seen minimums as high as $300 on weekends. Nowadays I usually take 1k and never go to the ATMs. I play pai gow now because it’s a slow game with a lot of pushes
There’s a movie called “Lost in America” and in it, the couple has cashed in everything and are traveling across America. Well, they stop in Vegas-“Just for the night.” and he wakes up in the middle of the night to find his wife gone from the room. He wonders downstairs to the casino and he can hear her yelling, “COME BACK BIG 9!!! COME BACK BIG 9!!” She had lost their entire nest egg. All $750,000 of it.
Love that movie. Actually, she was betting the number 22.
@@nancybenton5635 was that it?! Hahahaha!! I just remember him not “allowing” her to use the words nest or egg or any combo because she obviously did not understand the concept of a nest egg. Hahahahahaha!!!
@@whomiswhowespeaktobutwhoiswhom right, a bird lives in round stick, and you have things over easy for breakfast. The movie was hilarious. Yes, it was 22, I will never forget it. In fact, I was at the casino yesterday, and I played a little roulette and I put $.50 on 22 and it hit. 22 is the homage to Casablanca. Whenever you see a movie with roulette you will find that they often use the number 22.
@@nancybenton5635 THANK YOU FOR THE REALLY INTERESTING FACTS!! LOVE IT!!!
@@whomiswhowespeaktobutwhoiswhom hahahaha. I’m good for lots of useless information..
I've worked in a casino for about 6 years myself; I've seen a lot of this stuff happen, and the crazier stuff I haven't seen still seems very plausible.
I've heard that one thing many gambling addicts have in common is hitting a relatively large payout very early in their gambling "career". If you go to a casino and lose your bankroll in a couple hours, or play the lottery several times and never win anything, it loses its luster (for most people). But if you happen to win some big prize, even a few thousand dollars, it sets an expectation that you're "lucky" and you're more likely going to keep trying to win again.
I had a regular for 3 or 4 years who won a multi million dollar settlement and he blew it all away on high stakes blackjack and now works for the casino at their gas station across the street. So sad cause he was genuinely the nicest guy ever.
Played in a casino once, it was a bit of fun. My number was called on roulette on my first spin but I didn't place the minimum bet apparently. Spent a bit on the slots and on a 15 cent bet made $40ish. I genuinely thought I broke the machine and didn't understand how I won. Lost most of it and gave the rest away to people on the slots and never went back. I make enough money to pay my bills and I'd never bet my rent on it. Looking around the place at the people there, I realized it's not a place for happy people.
It’s not a place for happy people…that’s a good way to explain it.
2:30, as an American who recently had to take an ambulance for an accident, the bill for it was a little over $1300.
Worked as security, emt, bartender, then dealer 24 years. I’ve seen and heard it all. I don’t gamble and Tell everyone DONT GO!
This video was pretty depressing tbh.
yeah.
Make me want to go down to the casino and gamble $50 to see if I win something jk
Check out 14:00 if you want to feel better
the guy's ridiculous voice makes it even more depressing....
Had a relative who moved to vegas
It was cheap to live there.
She has had modest amount of money
She went to the casino everyday to play video poker
She received free lunch
It took her about 2 years, to loose about 250g ..after loosing all her money .she went to the casino for the free buffet. When she didnt play that day .the casino told her not to come back
I worked in a Casino. It's the saddest place on Earth.
I hear a husband and wife arguing, she says she is NOT too drunk to gamble! Husband says let’s just go up to the room. Wife says loudly “I am NOT drunk” turns around and walks directly into a solid wall and passes out.
🤣
Idk if someone already talked about this, but I had a friend who worked in a casino. While not a sad story, he did tell me that casino’s (at least in that area) would keep tabs on new and returning gamblers who come in. If it was their first time in, good, they would rig the games and give them a better chance of winning so they return, and when they do, they try to earn back as much of that lost money by making it harder to win.
I worked with a woman who had been a dealer and she told me the same thing....new players would have great luck, until their fourth visit.
This is good to know. So use ky entire life savings the first 3 times I go to the casino
After I lost a couple hundred bucks not long after I was 21 and legal to gamble in Missouri, that was like 25 years ago, never went gambling again. My dad worked as a Pit Boss for a bit, saw a lot of sad stories. It was a bad place.
This is why I go to the casino maybe 1-2 a year, if that. I’ll bring $200-300 with me that I don’t mind losing and if I lose it, I move on.
I love poker, but without actual money bets.
Its way more fun to just casually play it without ever betting any actual money or currency.
I'm the same way with blackjack. I just legit like playing it lol and I don't even gamble.
@@turdferguson2 exactly! its just a fun game to play in general
Hint for gambling from my mom who worked at a casino:
Only bring in 50-100 bucks. Once that original 50-100 bucks is spent, leave. You will either make more money than before or less.
I think 50-100 is too general, it should be a percentage from a dedicated entertainment fund though.
Hi I have a story I use to work in small casino in the United kingdom , and mostly Chinese people came in and played and there was one Chinese lady who started playing when her pregnant belly wasn’t showing yet she stayed all night and barely eat something so we where giving her ricepudding , and this lady gave birth and in the same day she gives birth she came in at night to play her breastmilk was overflowing from her bra area that was sad to watch gambling it’s a terrible thing when you let your self go. Apologies if I made grammar mistakes English not my 1 language 😅
As an Asian I can say that Asians are very weak to gambling temptation. I really hate this vice
Not a casino worker but ex-residential HVAC.
So, part of being on the job is stopping by gas stations to refill and grab snacks for the day.
The sad thing was, if you made routine visits to stations with digital slot machines, you could tell who the regulars were. And what's worse, based on their appearance, you could tell who was on SSI, disability or some other sort of fixed income.
Once you realized that, you could learn when the checks deposited, because they were in on that very day gambling away the limited assistance they had.
I never intend to gamble but this video makes me hate gambling now
This is why I stick with my PC gaming addiction :P
The only good story I heard was from Hungary where a guy won around 250-300k euro at the roulette, wanted to cash out but the casino did not have that amount on them so they suggested he'd sleep in their hotel room until the morning when they'd go to the bank. The guy thought this was a trick to not pay him once he leaves the table so he stayed there. Got bored so he started playing again ending up losing it all xD
My buddy and I saw a guy sitting on the stairs at Foxwoods casino in CT and my buddy sarcastically asked the middle age man why he was crying… he said I have to go back home and tell my family we don’t have a house anymore. My buddy replied, well, sucks to be you.
That's terrible
Wanna know how to double your money in a casino?
Fold it in half and put it back in your purse/pocket.
@JohnSmith-zw8vp do you want to know how to get rich from casinos and gambling, avoid and stay away from casinos and gambling.
I like this. Going to use it in the future.
@@roberthunter479 It comes from the Lifetime movie "Going For Broke" Really sad gambling addict story I must say :(
I don't play the slots often, but when I do, I feel the highs and the lows pretty hard. If I win, I feel the surge, the rush. If I lose, I groan, yell, cuss, slap the machine around.
The people sitting next to me who play for hours on end, the addicts, they feel nothing. The highs, the lows, it's all the same. They just stare blankly at the machines, even if they win a jackpot or lose tens of thousands of dollars. Their dopamine receptors are totally fried.
Went to a casino with guy from church just for the experience I did won a bit but never really enjoyed however he did later found he had an addiction messed up a lot his life when the church found out how bad it was they sent and paid for him to get help with addiction he now doing much better
I worked in a casino for a year. The part about not wanting to leave a machine to go to the bathroom happened with a particular quite a bit. She ended up getting banned. She wasn't the only one. As a customer, I witnessed a woman lose $800 that she needed for her wedding. A friend of mine felt bad and gave the woman $300 and told her to go home. The woman promptly gambled that away too.
Reason why I'm in Gamblers Anonymous and I've been gambling free for over 6 years now. As bad as i thought i had it (and i did) there's some true degenerate behavior that I thankfully never did. I pray for everybody that's struggling to help themselves, you are all you have.
*I can’t even watch this video with all the game movement smh*
The Second story on #21 was glorious 😂. What a boss
my aunts heart valve exploded in a casino and the one that pulled the booth table away so they could help came into my moms line to checkout because he needed food to get through thanksgiving alone. family maybe stressful or abusive but sometimes you actually love them.
Self-induced vomiting as a "fuck you" is INSANE
😂😂😂
Working in a casino seems utterly soul-crushing...
It honestly is.
I met a guy in prison who went to psych after psych and was rejected each time because he was struggling with his urges towards children, which stemmed from the sexual abuse he suffered as a child.
If they had helped him, perhaps those kids would never have had those terrible traumas.
If we only focus on punishment, we will never solve the problem. It is through this approach that we have rising levels of such child abuse.
We need to prevent these terrible crimes, and the only way we can do that is through understanding.
2:35. That pan is gonna be a banger family heirloom for generations now 😂
I couldn’t stand the background.. gave me a headache!
I'm sorry sire
Dude. I love watching your channel grow! You’re one of my favorite Reddit readers!
Hoooly fuck. I'm glad this shit is illegal where I grew up. Or, well, the state owns a few casinos _(I think three, one in each of the three biggest cities in the country)_ where you can't bet too much and you can't lose too much, and all the earnings that don't go to pay those who work there and into upkeep of the places goes directly into care for addicts of *any* kind - drug addicts, sex addicts, gambling addicts or whatever. I think that's the best way to keep gambling "clean" and I'm 100% behind it.
Good thinking, Loren
I have a couple rules that I set for myself when gambling, and I stick to them *rigidly*.
Rule 1: If I zero out, what is the absolute maximum I'd be willing to lose? Never put more than that in the machine. If I only have $5 to spare, that's all I put in the machine.
Rule 2: I play for double or nothing. To use my earlier $5 example, If I zero out, oh well, I've only lost $5. If I get a $10 payout, I call it quits.
The background was so fast it made me ill
I went to the Casino like once in my live. Last time I checked there was a ban on gambling in a casino within a certain area from where you live in Germany, to avoid stories like those to happen. idk if that was lifted at some point and tbh I'm not really interested as I rather stay away from gambling entirely.
Is it really so triggering to say suicide? Unalive sounds worse than suicide.
@konroh2 - RUclips won’t let him put ads on the video if he says “suicide” or “killed him/herself”
@@notadvertiserfriendly6084 I understand that, the point is we have to face problems head on, not with semantics. YT does us no favors.
For me, gambling is a pretty big component of my relationship with my mother. She used to bring us to bingo when we were underage, and to casinos when we were of age. I was always encouraged to bring money and 'have fun'.. She was always a bit annoyed when I only brought something like 50 or 100 bucks, what I could afford to lose. But to be honest? I knew it would go in like, an hour and I really wanted to leave. I just don't like casinos. They're so overwhelming, too much noise and flashing lights. It just never was for me, and I'm glad.
Story 12 is one I experienced. When I was first assigned to a base in Germany back in the 80s, I was placed in a dorm with a roommate, until I was able to rent a place in a nearby village, who would spend his entire paycheck on slots at the NCO club and be totally broke until next paycheck. At least he had an issued meal card so he was able to eat.
The pettiness on the envy bonus xD 10/10 lesson for the greedy assholes
The envy one was great
I work at a bingo hall in the poor part of town, Texas ain't got not casinos, it is sad just how many older and less financially fortunate folk come in regularly to blow off hundreds of dollars.
Idk I can not get into casinos because of the house edge. I know that is how they make money, but the idea of gambling knowing that mathematically I am guaranteed to lose (lottery/scratch cards as well) ruins it for me.
My first time at a casino I witnessed a really drunk guy lose everything at the roulette table and try to fight someone. No more than 10 minutes later I saw him on the ground passed out pissing his pants with security crowding around him. He was at least 40 years old and you could tell this wasn't his first time there. I asked the dealer about him and they said he went to ATM at least 4 times only to return to the table and lose everything. He had a wedding ring on so I legitimately felt bad because his family is most likely going to suffer due to his addiction that casinos support. I bet they offered him a couple free nights after losing all that money just for him to come back and do it again
As a pretty fresh 21 year old, this video instilled a healthy caution for casinos and gambling, thanks!
I worked at slots place few years ago, just few machines, nothing fancy. IT was "illegal" place and ugly neighbourhood. Most od the players was workers of the shipyard nearby - cheap drugs, cheap beers and shit like this. Iv seen plenty of guys burning whole monthly paycheck on just one night, sometimes just on couple of hours. I will never forget their empty look and questions they Ask themselves "what will I tell my wife?" I worked there just a couple of months and I have gambling allergy since that time.
I work security at a casino. On New Years Eve, a man collapsed and had a seizure. He couldn’t speak English so we had a translator. We managed to save his life, but while waiting for the ambulance all he wanted to do is get back up and keep paying his video poker. It’s really sad.
Also I see people at the tables literally every single day. In the middle of the day, for hours and hours. I’ve been here for 3 years
I worked at one on evs for two years. Saw people who were there 24 hours after I left the day before and never left. Saw people cash their social security checks. I've seen fights over "lucky" machines
I once played went out to a boat party and went to the casino after it and lost 700 in like 2 hours but luckily I won 700 the night before first time gambling online and basically started where I left off I can guarantee I’m never putting that much in ever again mind you when I go I only put 100 in and quit
I worked in the cage. An Indian guy (mid 50's) came to me one time asking about $100,000 USD in outstanding markers, asking when it would be withdrawn from his bank account. He lost 100k gambling.
Also, a couple times I had to cash out customers leaving in handcuffs (some for being drunk/angry, some drugs, some cheating (which is a felony), some for whatever). The worst is seeing an employee get escorted out in cuffs (usually theft).
Online casino worker: I joined a table of speed blackjack and at the point where I was revealing the dealers card one player started writing threats in the chat, I mean, the players had good odds, but one player decided to split 10's and got too many on both sides after hitting, and guess what, those cards would've made the dealer bust, yet the dealer got 21 and everyone lost.
And that player I mentioned lost it, cuz he went all in and he needs that money for living and said he would off himself. I reported him and kept doing my job while advocating that it's not a good idea and he should've been responsible with his expenses. So he left the table, a bit later two guys came and eventually closed the table, once the cameras were off I asked them if it's about what just happened, they said no, they were there to just change the camera. Honestly, was scared that I did something wrong, but never got anything about what happened after.
It has been 4 month since my last time being at a casino and I glad that I never went back. Having a gambling addiction sucks.
I went to a casino only twice in my life. Won $144 when putting $100 in a Cleopatra themed machine, won in blackjack as well, lost in everything else.
I always use cash, leave my cards at home, and set an alarm on my phone.
watching this hoping it’ll scare me to go back to online casino (it’s just giving me more motivation)
Yeah, loved hearing about degenerate gamblers.... None of whom even tried to get the psychological help they desperately needed.
My rule for playing at casinos is quite literally to not think of it as an opportunity to make money, but just to go and have fun with the machines. Just how you pay for tickets when you go to a theme park, I’d go with money specifically in mind to spend on the casino
If you can’t be disciplined when gambling don’t go it will ruin you mentally fast, I used to not be disciplined would go in and keep taking $$ out and leaving extremely mad but I changed accepting that I’m going to lose way more than ever winning so whenever I go now which is maybe 5 times a year I only take 300 cash leave my wallet home which is 2 hours from casino and some trips I lose my 300 and some trips I’ll profit 200-1500 dollars but I mainly go to eat at buffet hang with friends and just enjoy getting away and not making it a trip of losing all my $$ and getting behind on bills thinking I’m going to win a million dollars
When talking about people dying in a casino….reminds me of working at a major manufacturer. The saying was, no employee ever died there. No matter if your head was smashed like a pancake, they would say that they had a pulse as they loaded you up into ambulance. People always were “alive” when they left company property. Thankfully I never had any firsthand experience with a situation like that while working there
25 years in the buisness and I've seen a thing or two. lol... I need to write that shit down.
my honest reaction is detailed in a singular emoji: 😔
Gambling addiction has seriously destroyed lives and ruined marriages and broken families apart. We have a family in our larger family that ended up divorced because the husband/father got so addicted to gambling that he was losing all of his paycheck & had been taking out his pension money for quite a long time, and he was about to lose the family home all due to his addiction. His wife had to divorce him to protect herself because she is older & not well and didn’t want to be homeless with no ability to care for herself. He has no interest in stopping.
Hope you are OK, Loren
I wonder if that Pai Gow story with the 7 card straight flush is an urban legend that never really happened. I heard that exact same story from a dealer in Vegas probably at least a decade ago.
At my local casino a guy aged over 90 would visit and play poker. The staff had notification that the guy was going to die at any moment. I even heard them saying 'doctor said he's ready to drop at any time'. Did they stop him gambling? Heck no.
one of the saddest things is probably me disnowning my family a soon as i graduate
Not a casino employee, but...
It was near Christmas. I was walking across the parking lot, when you see a woman hitting a man over the head repeatedly with her giant purse and screaming, "YOU LOST ALL OUR CHRISTMAS MONEY!!!""" The man just kept walking in a daze as she kept repeatedly bonking him on the head.
I once got up to go use the restroom and there was a stream of diarehea going into the men's room. Ewww.........waited too long.
Some of these are just fake. $30k is “life changing money” but he makes $2-3k a week but also sleeps in his truck? Ok
Was 20k in profit and I couldn't believe it.
Lost that 20k and proceeded to lose another 20k of my own.
I feel like shit , I've stopped gambling for 2-3 months now but still get urges and it fcks with my head.
My brother is a Slot Machine Programmer for Gauselman (Merkur Group) He says, "there is no winning Slot Machine Player in existence. It is not possible" ^^
I'm lucky genetically, not an addictive personality or whatever they call it but these stories break my heart. I used to do a lot of programming and all these gambling places have algorithms that find heavy gamblers and give them incentives to come back. The algorithms could easily identify, cut-off, and recommend treatment for same, they don't though, do they?
It’s sad that many dealers also gamble. You would think after they have seen a sea of slubs losing money would turn them off gambling but when I’ve talked to dealers they alway talk about that one guy last week that hit it big and completely disregard thousands of losers.
My nephew was always wanting to "borrow" some money to play the fairground type gambling machines, (penny slots, push twopence, etc) On holiday I got really fed up and gave my mate a twenty, My nephew a twenty and let him play.end of a couple of hours my nephew had some tokens worth about 2. Wt this I annouced lets spend our winnings at the cafe.Needless to say me and my friend got a right royal feast and change and my nephew begged for food. After dinner I said "want to go gambling again?" No takers...
A B.J.Player pulls wad of cash , about 10K wrapped with a large rubber band ,.... after a couple $500 buy ins , then a couple $1K buy ins , then a couple $2K buy ins , then a 3K buy in .......each time his large rubber band , wrapped 3 or 4 times around his bankroll , came off , then wrapped back on. ... after 30 minutes of play , and a , " hot " , shoe for the house ,.....the player quit in disgust , ... said thanks and left the rubber band on the table , empty and out of a job !....then l noticed he walked right over to the ATM ,....to reload on some ammunition 😳😳😳.....l guess some people NEVR learn !!.... ☹️☹️☹️
I get motion sick watching these videos.
#21. That. Was. AWESOME!
Casinos need a money loss limit just like bars have an alchohol limit
Some of these are bad... but I can't really bring myself to feel bad for them. This really is a case of play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Addiction isn't by coincidence and only on terrible choices. These venues are designed to play on every fucking instinct a human has to draw them in. From how the slots are placed in an almost maze-like structure, to lights, sounds and anything else that'll make someone physically addicted through dopamine hits. They have people to research which sounds and tricks that has the highest probability of keeping them playing.
I feel bad for people that get addicted this badly to gambling in the same way I feel bad for people with a drug addiction or eating disorder. The power is within them to change but it's definitely easier said than done.
You can know someone is being foolish and still feel sad for them. Complex emotions are indeed possible.
@@T3n50rDon't forget that there are no clocks or windows so you lose all sense of time, and that a vast majority of people don't understand how statistics work...
@@ResidentMilf For sure, my personal thinking is that these places should be allowed to operate but to put them in a good light is glamorizing the devil himself.
I won 50k playing roulette on an online casino it took me about 8 days to win that much. The following weekend on Saturday I decided to play again and was loosing pretty bad I was down 10k writhing 30 sec I never thought I was addicted and thought I could stop and just walk away but I couldn’t and lost that 50k. Even tho I never lost any of my money it still haunts me every night. And you don’t know ur addicted until it’s too late but likely for me loosing that 50k gave me a good dose of therapy and im cured from gambling.
I work in the prize area and an older gentleman plays a slot near me hit a jackpot and died afterwards it was heartbreaking.
I always set a budget for myself. I'll bring $500. When its gone, its gone. No more and I hard cut it. Most of the time I only end up playing about $100 or so of my budget since I enjoy watching my friends play. I'll just sit back and have some drinks. That mentality of the next hand winning it big is what gets people.
I parked in a casino parking lot one evening and as soon as I walk away from my car heard a loud noise and saw a flash inside a vehicle nearby. You can imagine what I thought. Called 911 and within 30 seconds the police showed up. They approached the car, guns drawn, flashlights out, etc One of cops told his partner "we have a 10-56" upon looking inside of it.
I got an ad for a casino while watching this 💀
I gamble semi regularly, usually poker nights with friends with a small winner take all pot. But in the off chance i go to a casino I have 3 rules.
1. Leave your damn bank cards at home.
2. Unless it is someones birthday, I never bring more then 100 dollars cash.
3. Slots are the devil. Don't touch them.
I seriously question the intelligence of people who develop a gambling addiction.
When someone develops an addiction, they have no control over it. One hour gambling can get you hooked, and you gamble again, and again, and again until you are fully addicted. Im in high school, but I have sympathy for people suffering any kinds of addictions
Same here. Seriously you lose over and over again and you just keep going?
Its no different from being addicted to anything else. There's obviously an underlying issue that makes people addicted to drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex etc. Its usually depression so that really has nothing to do with intelligence. The wins give you a high and you continue to chase that high.
5:39 what is Atlantic City?
Now what's funny about casino's in my state, we have two casinos now but I think they still haven't repealed the law banning BINGO. Yes, Bingo, because its a form of gambling. However you can play Bango which is the same exact game just with a A instead of an I because the law banned the game by its name. The only people who could legally set up Bingo games were the Indian Revs and they had a massive Bingo parlor. However since the state legalized casinos, the Bingo and Bango Parlors closed and we've kept the revs from building a Casino repeatedly because the two we already have don't want competition.
Bingo Local, Yes what she said
The best strategy is to take a certain amount of money to spend. If you lose it, leave. If you win big (or relatively big), leave. But if you stay long enough, the casino will get all that money back. And don't feed one machine constantly, there is no reward for loyalty.
I lowkey love and hate when i know enough about the story the posters make, to know that its a conpletely made up story for reddit attention. Then people share it not knowing any better...
