if you dont want to go broke, never chase your losses!
Damn correct
two months ago i start gambling lost 200k then i stope i thought if keep this i will lose every thing last week i said only try with 2500 $ if lose i will stop i do not know how but i won 130k then i said ohi can take my money back then i lost 40k i stoped withdraw 90k to my bank then i realize i had big issue i just want to keep playing no matter what and if i keep this i will lose the 90k left from my wining so i stop i may try once a month cus still i am down 110k but i hope i can control my self
@FactFlicks6 please stop it not worth the risk.
It's not knowing when to stop if you win, it is knowing how to stop when you lose.
True I made 400 dollars out of 20 dollars but I didn't stop and tried to get it back than after a week I lost a grand... So I stopped gambling waste of money...
I can sum up a compulsive gambler for you: we leave the casino only when we go broke, period.
But some will ask money from their friends and family in order to go back to casino again, which was also mentioned in the video in the end.
Not true everone is diffrent some times yes I would leave broke .sometimes I would leave right away when I won 100 bucks
Smh
I was compulsive until I went broke numerous times in poker. However I had many nights I would leave the casino a winner. Still the losing nights eventually outweighed my wins by far.
Winning and having fun is really hard to walk away from. Like he says it’s about the rush and the thrill.
I won 46k in July and lost it all. This man speaks the truth.
I won 200k but in an hour they said Bye!
Probability dictates that over a cycle of 100 spins, there will be WIN streaks and LOSS streaks. So when you are in the WIN streaks, you continue until the wind starts to change direction. Then you stop and walk. If you are in the LOSS streaks, then you reduce your bet by 1/3 until the wind starts to change direction, then you resume your normal bet size and after winning a 1% on WagerRoll, you stop n walk. This way you increase your chances of NOT-LOSING.
@@dalisastuff9848 what ! 200k did you quit bruv?
@@kevinnjenga72 no he said he lost it when you're on the adrenaline spike of gambling you will lose it all no matter what you're addicted whether that's not cashing out because of the thrill or going back and slowing losing the money from redepositing it drains you
in onine casino@@dalisastuff9848
Best way to stop any bad addiction is to replace it with good addition ( gym, cycling, running , any good hobby ) . This is more effective than just saying you're quitting any bad addiction. If you don't replace it with good addition sooner or later 100% you go back again.
Thank you. ❤
One night I lost $3000. Then I cashed out my credit card and lost another $2000. Told my girlfriend about it. And she said why didn’t you just stop, you knew you were on losing streak, why didn’t you just stop and cut your losses. I said I can’t, all I was thinking about was winning it all back. That’s the problem with gamblers like me. We can’t stop until we lost it all. Then I look back and damn, how did I f****** lose that much in one single night.
I can certainly agree with u 💯‼️This so true what u said!! I feel like crap! 😢

We post in our channel videos how you can have the edge on your side, and it's not a BS video like many youtubers do.
I just lost 15,000 dollars on roulette high stakes. First night in Vegas. I’m broke.. no credit cards. No food.. flight back home to Chicago in two days. I have $200 on my debit card. Gambling is fucking terrible. I’m also a full time ride share driver. It will take me 3 months of 50 hr weeks to make that back.
Same here😢
I have been gambling for about 6 years now. I have weeks where I go everyday, and some weeks where I only go once. I usually will have at least 1,000 on me if I go in. I've had bad days, where I've lost 5,000 plus in that day. I've had great days, where I've been up 5,000 plus and have left on top of the world. I definitely have an addiction to it, which is strange as I am not addicted to much else in life. I can honestly say that I know i can't quit gambling. But I've made a deal with myself, and that is after I pay all bills and know everyone will be fed and taken care of until I get paid again, I can go gamble everything else away. I have a very good job and I get paid very well. It sucks to have such an addiction, but I am at least taking care of my family and myself before the inner beast comes out. I haven't always been this way either. I use to lose EVERYTHING, every time it was payday. But I levelled with myself and am doing better now.
Gambling addicts never stops...it's not about the money it's all about escaping reality. Does not matter if they win they will lose it all later
Simon S yeah.. in my case though it matters to some companies, like when I was on a streak, won 1.5k and lost it all in another website. I bet the first company wasn’t happy but for me it sucked but not as much as losing my original money. I basically took money off a UK company and lost it to a Malta based company lol.
Exacly
@@AArrad that's not really how it works. No matter which game you play (slots, roulette, etc.), the game always has an RTP (e.g. 96%). Each game round brings the game closer to its intended RTP. If you only played one single game for $/£/€ 1.00 and won 1000, the game operator didn't lose a single cent. They'll still have their 4% profit. Even if you won a million there, they wouldn't care because they'd still have the same 4% of what all the players put in. And you know well those are crazy amounts, people put in all the money they have in their life. Some casinos rip off players off their winnings by creating crazy T&C's that no one can fulfill but that's just extra profit, the game will still do the same 4% return and if you won, others will just lose more. In any case, the casino ALWAYS wins and the players ALWAYS lose.
Solun I understand, theyre thinking large scale, but one way to boost profits is to keep people playing. After I had won a large amount of money, I tried cashing out online. They didn’t let me until they verified my information. So they let me deposit hundreds more but still wouldn’t let me cash anything out for a 3 day period. I ended up losing it all and more. So I understand that in the grand scheme they don’t care if you win or lose, but what they want is more gambling, because the more money that passes through their games the bigger the % they end up with.
When I win I wanna win more then I lose all the wins plus more. It never ends well
I sure can Relate to this!! 🙁
thank you ..i agree with u ..just keep away from gambling
Just lost 200 so I'll quit now
POWER NYC
Thank you
I’m trying my best
I swear!!!
@@itsnothenry sane bro literally same
Easily said than done,, especially when ur not Addicted to gambling!
I gamble when I feel boring. I feel also I’m addicted, but this feeling when you win. It’s like drugs.
I gambled so much I got addicted to loosing.
Mad Hatter 😂😂😂 this shit sad but funny! You lose & still feel accomplished lol
i carnt stop
When you lose at spelling losing
hahahahahah
@@allistergraham6704 FUCK OFF
I heard of a study where a test animal had access to a button or lever or something that would sometimes release food. When the pattern was predictable, say once every five times, and then stopped providing food, the animals would eventually stop. But when the payout was random, the animals would never stop trying. Seems like gambling encourages compulsive behaviour
I think I've read that same thing, and it makes sense. Human brain functioning shares many traits with other mammals.
Even better, the gambler experience's euphoria from the process of winning or losing, and so the loss is equal to the win, in their mind's. Its not about the money.
@@EGbeatz that's very interesting, I have a brother who is extremely addicted to gambling and I never thought of it that way, he's addicted to the unpredictable nature of gambling itself.
It’s the rush not the money. It’s pretty much an expensive drug unless you’re only doing $0.01 & still feeling the affects
You said it all right Zach. What gives gambling its internal thrill is not the money aspect but rather the action. The whole dynamics of gambling revolves around the intense excitement that it puts the gambler in making him forget reality while under its spell. Your analysis is saying nothing but the naked truth. Thanks for sharing.
U play more coz u r winning but u also play more in hope of winning if u r losing..
It's endless cycle so stay away 🤣
When you gamble..You also gambles away your life..it is a endless cycle that will destroy your life in the long run..
I’ve won so many times, I’d say more than the usual gambler(not bragging), but then turn around and lose it all on top of adding more from my bank account until I’ve lost it all. That’s addiction! This is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me! I voted against legalizing Indian casinos in California, never had a problem until they were aloud to build so many around where I live. Totally destroyed me! What a great contribution to society, thanks!
Gambling addict mixed with drugs is the most dangerous..casinos and online gambling gets richer and richer while players lost cars jewelry house etc..better be in jail than addicted with these
The advertising of legalized gambling is absolutely brutal.
For years the government has been putting people in jail for running gambling operations, while running and/or profiting from the exact same thing (“legal” gambling).
It’s immoral unless the government can get a cut.
Just started gambling this week and I already lost 1500...Thanks for this early warning video....got to stop.
You want more, not because of the action itself, but because in the past you lost much more and you chase chase... Or in the past you hit much bigger and you try to replicate since now luck is on your side. I will never want more until I am comfortable in profit. A drug addict does not take more when he reached his peak.
every 'spin' is supposed to be random....any "speculation" re 'quality' is gambling along with the addict, as is advice such as 'don't gamble tired'
Not gambler but lost 236,000 in 50 days at Thunder Valley Casino so awful 😢 I’m not sure how I can ever restart my life again .
Just keep ur Faith in God Trust in Believe If u want to Quit Asking God to remove the Addiction From u,, He Will Do it!! I’m on this Journey now of Recovery and Starting over Again! Stay Strong and don’t give up!! 🙏🏽
Only ever bet what you can afford to lose. Make small bets and put winnings aside. If you come away with nothing then at least you’re not in financial trouble. Just don’t break a deal with yourself. If you’re are unable to stop get help fast and cut any ability to use your finances straight away. Get help whilst loved ones have control of your finances.
^ very reasonable parameters for gambling
greatest shortest vid on utube
That is extremely high praise.
I agree with megotmesources! Good job Mr. Good!
I agree. Great video
You got to think of all the negativity of gambling before you think about doing it!
This exactly happened to me few days ago. I have deposited money for first time on online Blackjack. Made from 100EUR up to 3800EUR but still thought that I could win more. I lost everything in 20 minutes..
Yea that big win doesn't really matter at the end.
I think I will leave gambling after this vid!!! But my problem is I always make profit and when I wanna stop I think about what I lost the other day so I try to get it back and lose again!
Gambling is a waste of time and money. Look at it this way: how much could you accomplish if you took all the hours you gamble and think about gambling and used that time to learn things, make friends, get in shape, and increase your income? We humans get lured into gambling by the possibility that we could make a ton of money quickly, but when you look at it from the big picture, you get so much farther in life personally and financially if you learn things and work instead of gamble. Just some food for thought.
What You Said Was Very True!!....Subscribed/Liked/Notifactions
Thanks for EveryThing
Hey man, 1 year later, quit gambling, got in shape, bought a car, and just doing better over all in life thanks to you
MGZ good job
@@محمدالسعيدي-م3ت Wow! Amazing! Great work - that was all you.
Great and accurate analysis. I was a gambling addict predominantly poker but I was hearing this guy describing me and my behaviour. I have implemented a self exclusion on myself because I did not have the willpower or self disciple to stay away on my own. It was the right decision on my part.
Good work recognizing the need to change then taking steps to turn things around.
greed ,at least in my case ,only thing cured me was running out of money
Addiction rehab stories commonly involve a person losing everything and then being forced to face themselves and go on the right path. Whatever someone's substance of choice is (whether it be gambling, alcohol, drugs, etc.) the substance is like oxygen for a fire in that as long as it exists it'll likely feed the addiction.
Yes its true its not about the money its the thrill the action...you really dont care if you win 100 you will go for 1000 and in the end you lose everything......
I would stay in casinos for hours not even keeping track of my time 8 hrs or more Flew by, I mean it was as if it were a shorter amount of hours.
I once went to a casino at noon. After what felt like just a couple hours of playing, I went to leave and it was dark outside. Quite an odd feeling.
Zach Good It’s like staring at the tops of Buildings as people at the rooftop throw clocks into the air. Watching time fly. 😎✌🏼#Sosm209
I think it's all about GREED for it's NEVER enough!!
I guess you can call me a cheap roller because I don't spend more than $30 bucks and the $20 coupons credit that I get. I win more than I lost because my strategy is lots of patient and play very small.
I guess it's all about knowing when to stop.
Spot on! I go in the club and play roulette. I go in there to win only $50-$100. I say if I do this everyday I would earn up to $700 per week. Most of the time I earn or win that $100 in the first 15 min. But I dont stop there. We always think were going to win more. Once I was up $1200 and ended up losing all that and the money I bought which is $2000. I was in there gambling for about 10hours. I have done this many many times.
When I go to the Casino, I only bring 20$ and I DO NOT bring my cards to take money out of my bank. So when I lose my whole 20$, I leave! 20$ usually lasts me about 2-3 hours. I go to casino about once every 3 months. I only go to the Casino to have fun. Not to make money!
I had to learn this the hard way, which I watched this sooner
I learned it after I invested 15 Euros on gambling and won like 800 euro. And I lost it all. Sooooo basically I lost 15, which isn't a lot, but it is an early call to never gamble
juststeve you didn’t lose 15 the moment you win a certain about of money that money is now yours so you lost 815 euros
Man I gambled everything away just now. I must really quit gambling
Same here bro lost everything in blackjack
Don't feel bad. I just lost $5K, made up a lie so my mom would give me money .. and I proceeded to gamble her money away, as well. I feel horrible because I told her I was putting it to good use and she has no idea that I pissed it down the drain ..
You can turn it all around by resolving to not gamble anymore and pay her back someday when you have the ability to do so.
Did you gamble after that day ?
Not sure about the science, but your math is right. If you could play an infinite number of times, statistics says that you will eventually lose all of your money because the house takes a cut. Sure, someone might beat the odds with big winnings but only if they can walk away from the game.
The reason why the gambler did not leave when he
was up $140 is because he did not know that this
is the maximum win that he will have for that evening.
It is in hindsight that we can say he should have left
with the $140 but at that time,the gambler could not have known that.
I agree - the unpredictability of the 'highs' and 'lows' is a major driving force behind the psychology of trouble gambling. When we lose 90% of our stack we think 'Okay, this HAS to be the low, I'm due to recoup that loss,' and when we're up 50% we think 'Okay, I'm up, but I think I could win a little more...'. That's why, if someone gambles (and hopefully they're not a compulsive/trouble gambler, because those people shouldn't gamble at all), it's important they set stringent, conservative limits on how much we're willing to lose in one session and also their cash-out limit for when they win in a session. For example, a smart gambler (again, someone who doesn't have a gambling addiction) would walk into the casino with, say, $50, and agree that if they lose that $50 they'll leave, and if they go up by, say, $30-50, they'll leave.
Jimmy Maa I just lost $140 todayz😩😢😭
Jimmy Maa - I’ve hit 4-5 jackpots in less than 4 hours and still stayed at the casino till I was broke....it’s not about knowing how lucky you will be it’s a disease I’m telling you....
This is the key to gambling. I gamble playing $1/2 no limit hold-em. I've lost money and I've won money. However, you need to be able to win to keep the desire to play ongoing. I keep a spreadsheet on my home computer and I keep a bankroll tracker app on my phone. I know what days I win the most money, what time of day wins me the most money, which month wins me the most money, and what dates of the month win me the most money.
You have to track your progress and for a slot machine person, that is not the easiest thing for them to do. I play poker by an hourly wage. I've I'm exceeding the hourly wage for part-time work, I'm probably only playing 2-3 hours, because I'm staying above minimum wage. My hourly average wage for 2018 was $10 and I played over 300 hours.
No he is right u r wrong
From a once addicted gambler who has won a lot , it’s not worth it , no matter how much you win, you will lose it all back , don’t just start
I suggest there is another more simple explanation. Fear, especially for the addicted gambler, is stronger than greed. Let's use baccarat as an example which is essentially a coin toss game. The casino edge is the smallest in the house. On bank it is only 1.06 per cent. But the casino typically earns 14 per cent of the drop or 14 times as much. How does it do that? The typical gambler flat bets when he wins and chases it when he loses. When he wins 4 bets in a row. He wins 4 unit. But when he loses, he bets 1, 2, 4, 8 units or 15 units. In other words, his average winning bet will always be less than his average winning bet, because he never bets its up when he's winning. He only bets it up when he's losing.
This goes along with research that demonstrates that we humans have a greater emotional response to losing a dollar than winning a dollar. The fear of loss is indeed very strong.
My brothers and sisters gamble is a bad habit let's stop it♥️
I wish he addressed the odds of poker in this. Much better odds but still addicting to many.
Thank you! This is what I needed to know it's true I have this problem and I've been looking for ways to stop. It is an act not about the 💰 💰.
It's strange! Compulsive gamblers like myself totally block out what we know is true about gambling while we're gambling or we are just so into gambling we simply don't care until it's over, then the misery kicks in! 😔
This is very true of all addictions. For the most part, someone who's addicted knows what they're doing is harmful (or, at the very least, not helpful). The trouble is if our brains know of no other way to cope with the emotions and thoughts that drive our addictions, then our brains keep wanting to rely on the addictive behavior. Recovery and rehabilitation are all about connecting ourselves with new coping skills that resonate with us. The difference between addiction and recovery is knowledge and effort: the knowledge of a healthy coping mechanism and the effort to implement it into our lives.
People are addicted to the high. Eventually, they need to feel that state of mind all the time.
Even just ordinary life seems unbearable to an addict.
So the way to take these people back to Earth is a really hard beating (eg caning for a few hours) or taser treatment to prove that ordinary life is not really that bad.
But a better solution is to swap their bad addiction for a good one.
That went from 0 to 100 real quick.
Just hang out ling enough to where "boring" is actually really nice and you don't miss "exciting."
This is a very simple explanations and so true...
Thank you for the video!
Some days are ur lucky day, some days are ur bad days, from my experience, bad days > lucky days.
The problem with gambling is not about winning or losing, its more about how it can affect ur mind.
If you focus on the pain that it causes you, believe me you will hate it, but if you go once a year (even that is not good) but then its fun to do, but trying to pay debts and make profits that will not work this will destroy your life! And you know why because the long terms of gambling will kill a person. For example imagine if you win 5000 dollar, euro or whatever you will say i will make more after a while and you will make like 2000 more, BUT THEN you will go down a couple of hundreds and think ahh man i want that back and back and back so the greed will come out and before you know you will have 0 dollar/euro..gambling is fun for once a year not for every week or month!
👍👍👍
I lost soo much of money in gambling and feeling depressed
I’m feeling the same way!! But watching this video and listening to others with the same addiction is really making me realize there s a light at the end of this tunnel!! FAITH IS THE THINGS HOPED FOR,,,, !! Stay Strong n Keep Praying GOD WILL REMOVE THIS ADDICTION FROM US!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Havent been to a casino over a year. No urge to go back and get the virus.
A friend of a friend goes to the casino weekly.
Every year or so he'll "win" 2k-5k.
I say he might be breaking even. He disagrees
I've had 100 spins and only 3 wins !! It's fixed and it will destroy your life !!
wow
Ya think?
Gambling is a DISEASE.
Wow!! You cracked the code!
Its wierd how it works out that way.. just give it all back.
You got the high rollers who bet more than their bank roll. Those would be the problem gamblers compared to a volatility player who player small but with a higher bank roll. Both are bad but the smaller bets have more chances of winning.
Worst thing that happened to me is I won 8K within a month of when I started gambling. Was up 20K at one point, but that didn't matter. I was invincible then. Fast forward 5years and down 40K. Trust me, if I ever get back to even *I will quit*. Just can't get on that 8K streak like I did when I didn't know any better. I wish I could go back 5 years ago and punch myself in the stomach.
The Rock I was down 12k for a span of 6 months. I’ve said the same thing as you “if I could win back that money I would quit” guess what? I deposited $100 dollars & I won $12,500 in one day in a span of 13 hours. Only to lose all of it in a matter of 10 minutes. 10 f’in minutes
Oh shit, damn that sucks - big time. What was your goal then, since it wasn't getting back to even?
Lamont Johnson Hey man I can relate, on a smaller scale though but it still hurts as I’m a student. Maybe we can make a group and talk about this with others on a group chat?
Hey @The Rock I want to warn you that your mindset is going to ruin you for life. You think you want to get even but when you do you will end up loosing again. Your wish about getting even was all I ever wanted in my life over 10 years of my life all I said to myself was if I get even I quit and I hate this. That was my plan and hope every single time I went into a casino. Guess how many times I broke even? Exactly 8 times over 10 years, and I actually won back all my losses and made a profit every of those 8 times atleast 10k profit. And I'm talking big amounts like the smallest recoup of losses would be at least 10 times of your lifetime losses you mentioned in your post. If I had walked out of any of those 8 instances not only would my slate be cleaned but I would have walked away with $10k or sometimes even $30k over the $300k+ I've lost (I'm talking Australian dollars so it's pretty close to USD rate). And guess what? I've never walked away and I would tell myself the lie that yes it would be next time, I made a mistake but next time I break even I will walk away because now I know what I shouldn't do and after all I only want to break even so it can't be that hard. But mate that happened 8 times and my dream planned even though I achieved and surpassed it never actually worked. If youre young I urge you not to think this way, I am too old but if you are young don't make the same mistake as me. More than the money, I miss the time I lost in my life that I was supposed to be living out there and enjoying. Now I can't get back the time.
Also you are wrong yet, you think the worst thing that could happen to you was the big win. Actually nope, the worst thing that could happen to you is if infact you win back the money to break even. I so hope that never happens to you. If you ever break even just once you will be ruined for life. See my other comment on 8 failures. Cause once you break even and then you loose, you will know ahah I can break even, and I just have to walk away next time. I made a RUclips account just to reply to your comment. Hope you learn something from my life.
I won 19,000 pounds starting from 500 quid.
Thought that would have been the cut of point but it got much worse. Eventually I lost it All, Then kept borrowing and borrowing to win some of it back and now I’m in the shit and have load of debt.
Went from hero to zero real quick.
😂😂😂😂😓 so sorry man
Me writing ✍️ every thing on my diary 📔
Hilarious I used to watch a guy playing the fruit machines he had pound coins stacked up on the machine , about 300 he neatly put them in stacks of 20 looking really pleased with himself that he'd won a little , 40 mins later he had none and was at the cash point getting more money out , eight hours later over the eight hours he went to cashpoint about five times so I assume he lost loads
Slot machines are the worst games to play in a casino. You hit a 1:4 outcome and basically only win your money back. People who play them are blinded by the jackpots.
@@ZachGood but they're the simplest to win because i just press a button .. :D .. the more % outcome games scare me because i don't want to think too much :(.
Set the WIN goal at 1% over the starting BankRoll , $1000 , then when hit $10 , break and come back later.
Train the brain to look at 1% target per session this way = 1.01 to the power of 365 sessions = 3778% annual return - a feat that not even Warren Buffet could accomplish...that should be motivating enough.
If I make 800 a week. Pay 300 a week in bills. Save 200 for the week for gas,ciggerttes etc. Spend 300 every Saturday on roulette am I a addicted gambler. I have no debts and only play what I can afford. Also I always cash out when I'm up, but there has been times I got greedy and lost. I've been doing this for years.
I'm not a licensed mental health professional, so I can't make a determination as to whether or not you have a gambling addiction (and even if I were licensed, I'd need much more information to determine whether or not you have a gambling addiction). That said, here's what's true: if you put that $300 in the bank each week, in a year you'd have $15,000 guaranteed. As they say in Rounders, "You can't lose what you don't put in the middle." Do you track your ongoing +/- from your gambling sessions? I'll bet that if you did, you'd probably see that you lose a few grand out of that $15,000. Essentially, that difference is, at the least, an entertainment fee for you.
But let's look at the even bigger picture. At the end of a year, let's say you lose $2,000 gambling (so you have $13,000 instead of $15,000). What do you have to show for those hundreds of hours you spent gambling? Just a bunch of stories about the big win you had or the big loss you had. You have no greater skills or life experiences as a result of that time. The money lost is replaceable, but the time lost is irreplaceable.
If you win money in the long-run, the fact still remains that from all the time you spent gambling the only skills/knowledge you learned is perhaps some probability/math and just a bunch of stories about wins and losses. If you spent all those hours learning a new trade or skill, imagine how much farther along you'd be? Perhaps you'd be making $1,200 a week or $2,000 a week?
What I'm saying is, you should start betting on yourself. It'll pay off financially and socially in a way gambling never could.
That's pretty stupid. You'll have nothing to show for it in 10 years.
They just got to gamble more until they win
Interesting way to see this experience.
well it is still about winning money. If I asked you if you wanted to win 150 or 15,000 what would you pick? Some addicted gamblers dont understand things like odds to know why if they keep playing they will never reach the 15,000 from the 150, but probably lose the 150
My problem is as i win my bets increase hoping to win more, which leads me into the hole.
I think its the high of the chase.
Ive been up $4000 online ready to walk away, but i can fight the urge of betting red or black on roulette for the double or nothing After a night of hustling slot machines.
And most times it’s not about money , it’s just the urge to do it not minding if u lose, don’t do it , won’t recommend
Zach your right on with the theory of not taking the winnings and staying on the table gambling. I can't reveal too much but lets just say I use to get calls every weekend during football season..lol It went on for a decade. The entire point of wagering is to make money but not everyone is a pro. It takes the professionalism to walk away with the profits and be addicted to that alone. If you are a sports wagerer then you can really make money by managing your money properly. Now we can go on forever but we both know they are not going to do it..lol So good luck to you and keep up the good work!!! BTW I've been planning a show on this for a while and by looking at you it seems you would fit perfect with us. Please let me know if your interested in more information. Thanks again.
I would put $20 in the machine if I lose it I leave just a little bit of fun, one night I put in $5 got the free spins and got $90 out of it, I increased my bet to $2.50 got another free spins got $220 out of it I played down to $200 and went home never get greedy
Thank you Zach Good :)
I think my mom is addicted to online gambling what should I do
I saw in her emails that she has deposited 156 times and she only withdrew once in that time period of 3 months and her deposit are between 20 to 5000 with the one from today being 300
I'm thinking of telling my aunt and grandma about it cause maybe they can help even if they live 2 hours away
YOU ARE 100 PERCENT RIGHT.........
for addicted gamblers why would one quit when they are up money so only time they have to quit when losses are great simple as that
The High I get from winning is better than Sex
I don’t do cocaine, but I’ve been told the High is equivalent to a Hit Of cocaine
For me it’s beyond explaining
I have no idea what’s wrong with me
I’m Lost
I’m Hopeless
I’m going Insane
Help Me Someone Please. !!!!!
You've identified a problem. Your goal now is to find the solution. The solution will be found through working with a therapist or addiction specialist. They'll give you the knowledge and method you need to overcome your addiction.
Zach Good
Thank you
I’ve been to GA before but I relapsed
I’m worse than before
I need to be admitted into a rehab clinic so that I won’t be tempted to drive to a casino
You should look into seeing a professional, whether that be inpatient or outpatient. Gambler's Anonymous (and all the Anonymous groups) are positive and productive however they don't connect with everyone and they're not as effective as professional help (in my opinion, at least). Google search addiction counselors in your area and get the ball rolling as soon as you can!
Thank you
I will do so
I purposely went to the Casino to lose all the money I had won
I was betting huge bets just so I could lose it all and not have any money to gamble with
Now I’m Flat Broke And cannot go
I know this was not smart
However, I had to do something to get that evil money out of my hands
I feel good about what I did because it was money I had not worked for
It was the Devils money
So glad it’s gone
Eyeswideopen Truth I have a bad addiction too. Fisrt thing first, you can ban yourself from all the casinos in your area! Second, find a hobby that you like to do for fun. Third, take a vacation trip outside the country to somewhere beautiful. Lastly, always keep in mind gambling will never lead you to succeed in life or make you happy.
It also applies in trading, more accurately in binary trading
For addiction their isn't an amount which is enough.
great video, good explanation
I earned 53 lakhs in 6days with 80 thousands and lost all 53 lakhs in just an hour ....that was insane
THE MORE I PLAY. THE PROBLEM IS I COULD NOT STOP. IM 59 YRS OLD. I HAVE MONEY TO GAMBLE. BUT I KNOW FOR FACT MY LUCK WILL GO AWAY.
As a non gambler gambling is dumb and it is designed to make you loose money so why participate
Shit just happened to me now, I won $300 with $10, but I insisted on playing more, now I lost all. Foolish me.
I hate myself getting my life into gambling always losing n having stress i really want to free myself from dis shit ..wise me luck
Gambling small amount is not the problem. It is gambling all your money that is the real problem. Just imagine you are a general, if you have 500,000 soldiers and you don't value their lives, you will end up with child soldiers. Just treasure your money and gamble reaponsibly.
U are spot on ..The brain chemistry..The zone ur in ..I’m a slot machine player in Australia ..They are everywhere ..They have destroyed the person I really am ..The time from my children The mental state my self confidence..When I have lost..I advise anyone to keep away ..Are government has become addictive to the revenue they get from these electronic morphine products.
I losted so far 12000 pound for nothing. .ho can I stop plz help somone
If you think you have an issue with gambling, you should contact an addiction center or do some research online into how you can learn to overcome it. The only things separating an addict from a non-addict are determination (which it sounds like you have) and knowledge. You need to figure out how you came to have a gambling problem, determine why gambling makes you feel 'good' (in other words, what need it's fulfilling in your life), and how to prevent yourself from continuing to gamble. You can do this.
Zach Good I just started for fun only then chasing that amount which I losted but bad luck again again losing can't recover that money
You may have to find your rock bottom. Everyone has one. Eviction, bankruptcy, divorce, overwhelming guilt, abandonment, jail. Something will one day make you avoid gambling because it caused that one thing that is so upsetting you cant bear to go through it ever again. Then you can recover.

Apply for self-exclusion
there is no gambler who bets on 1-17 hundred times by constant amount of stake
Sorry, I didn't say you are wrong, at all. But the graphic(or statistic) is not suitable to talkover about gambling loss and its addict. Its about like casino advantage, chance of odds, house edge. Goodluck, everyone.
I lost a lot to gambling and lost a whole lost chasing my loses. I am recovering from my addiction and have not bet my 4 months now but the biggest challenge is how to pay the most immediate debt. I have paid most of my debts monthly and currently owe about $1000 with $400 to be paid urgently. Is there a way to get financial assistance or loan for recoveting addicts?
Can an addict/ex-addict become a successful gambler and keep away from losing themselves? I wish I could be a balanced pro-poker player but I’m not sure if that’s realistic or more delusional? TIA.
I'm not a licensed counselor, so this is simply my estimate based on my knowledge: Maybe (but it's not worth trying).
Depending on the situation, some individuals with addictions can reform their behaviors to the point where they can exercise moderation. For example, some people with alcoholism can learn to drink in moderation with the right therapy and approach. That said, it's not wise for a person with an addiction to try to learn moderation because it'll likely result in more loss and suffering. It's best for people with addictions to simply abstain from the addictive behavior.
This theory is completely folly.. playing inside numbers on a roulette wheel pays 35 to 1... not 2 to 1.. :/
roulette is terrible...I mean don't get me wrong no gambling game is "good" all of them are gonna most likely hurt your bankroll in the long run. But when I hear about gamblers that play roulette all the time I don't get it at all
😢😢😢 19th January 2024 and I just experience this and I am addicted to gambling 😢and I hate myself for it, tried staying away from the casino for months and as soon as I go back to a casino it's the same result 😢
self-exclude yourself bro, you got this
Everytime you feel like you want to go to the casino. Take a deep breath and meditate for 30 seconds. It would massively help your brain to think more rationally
It comes from a mindset of lack.
Believing that you need more than you already have is the lie!
It's a philosophy and a belief that needs to shift.
I know it's a larger beast than this but after 20 yrs of gambling I have been working on my mindset of lack.
Working on my belief system is helping me
I lose when I back horses and also lose when I lay them. The horses seem to win easily when I lay then. Disgusting sport
i am planning to start gambling when I grow up but not in an addictive way I just know when I should stop and try to actually make money not loose them
Respectfully, you're a dumbass if you think you'll get rich gambling.
Don't buy into crypto, either. Why?
Look at all the criminals involved, rape, child molesting, drugs. Anything. Scammers. Thieves. No good.
Get smart. Get a job and learn to INVEST in stocks, mutual funds and so on. There is no short, huge gain, for the most part. Buy you won't starve for sure.
To the point!
Stay away from gamble. Period.
