Popular Post VillaLad Posted October 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2021 Hello everyone So I know I have a serious gambling problem and have managed to just deposit a tenna on a Saturday for a few football accas. Anyway as some might have seen I had 1 come in for £213 which was great for a £1 bet. Since then I’ve gone mad gambling on Sunday I deposited £20 and by the end of Sunday I had withdrew £900. Monday comes the missus wants a new telly so we go and get one I get back from shopping and win the money back for the telly in about half hour. I now think I’m invincible gambling wise it seems everything I bet on wins max bet on horses and dogs is £20 basically what’s been happening is I deposit £100 get down to something like £20-£30 and then hit a decent amount like £300-£400 I then withdraw and leave myself with the hundred and carry on. This process has been repeated quite a few times. Monday I had 1 team let me down for £400 Tuesday England let me down for £977 and this kind of tilted me. Roll on to Wednesday basically I’m still on around the £900 mark go down to £700 and stop on the horses and dogs. I decide to put £100 on slots and asked the missus if she wanted to play it. She does and the balance goes down to £30 from the £100 deposit. She says she’s bored and tells me to carry on which she shouldn’t have done because if I play slots I don’t know when to stop I’m one of those people who chase a bonus like an absolute idiot. I start playing return of kong megaways I lose the £30 deposit £100 get down to about £30 again and the bonus drops it paid £21 on £1 stake. Not happy with this like an idiot I carry on no bonus deposit after deposit chasing another bonus cause surely it can’t be as bad as the 1st one I keep depositing £100 until I have £100 left it finally bonuses and it paid £33 I’m now on full tilt and decide to stop on this slot. I go on who wants to be a millionaire and bonus it quite quickly about 10 spins £1 stake the bonus paid £11 I carry on bonus again after about 20 spins it paid £3.51. I have now pressed the self destruct button I have steam coming out of my ears and turn the shit game off. I put danger on £1 stake I started on it with around the £100 mark and the bonus drops in quite quickly again. I decided to choose high voltage 1st spin on bonus it re-triggers another few spins it re-triggers again and then re-triggers again 60 spins in total loads of dead spins but hit 1 big one and ended up with what’s on the picture below. I have withdrew virtually all of the winning amount and am determined to not go mad today. Im definitely not playing slots that’s for sure.

1pstaker Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 First part was really good, bought a telly out of the initial winnings. Something I always tried to do, get something or usually give the Mrs half. Cos we all know, that it's only gambling funds, and eventually it will disappear. Can't moralise with you, but hopefully you get something else out of the danger win. Well done, but obviously a little break would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solario333 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Awesome win and lovely narrative of the Gambler in his/her element . I am so glad you actually had a decent hit after so much torment . Perseverance sometimes pays , but mostly results in major financial calamity . We all enjoy a good win , and until the next time , rest up , eat well , and spend the money wisely , or at least on something you can tangibly appreciate . some of the bonuses have really been awful recently !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m trying to get hold of a PS5 but there like rocking horse shit 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m trying to get hold of a PS5 but there like rocking horse shit I suggest you give her money for the PS5 plus a sum of say 500 quid for her to use on household expenses/xmas. Use the rest to play with. We are all gamblers and know this run will end sometime but at least you will know you have the new telly + PS5 and a few quid for bills taken care off and you can go back to betting how you normally do feeling happy that you have not spunked away your bit of good fortune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrightmeow Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 At first I thought you won millions in the end the way you were telling the story. But I know the feeling when you feel "saved" in the end after the rollercoaster. Great win and rollercoaster you went through to get it. Its interesting for me because I had similar experiences to get the massive wins in the past. It was always a huge rollercoaster of emotions and money before I got it many times. I had my biggest win and cashout because of that. But that can be bad as well because when you get these big wins after the rollercoasters, it makes you believe and in the future you chase again but most of the times it ends badly like you said. Im glad it worked this time so get in! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirsty0312 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Great save and good hit. , we all know how the cloak of invisibility works, it can be scary. Try protect you, if you can. Maybe time out for a couple of weeks or even set gambling controls of deposit limits and loss limits. So you don't go into a bigger hole whilst adrenaline is high! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter clark Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 100% resonate with ur gambling style mate , tilt rinse & repeat , get mad lock casinos , and go for it again when the red mist has lifted the next day , it can work occasionally , but when it doesn't , u end up knee deep , very dangerous . most of my big wins happen this way , u know the score , so lock the fkrs up for the foreseeable . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev40 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 @VillaLad get in there with the nice wins mate. I was telling a few on rob's stream the other day for the first time in 2 years my missus went to the arcade. Reluctantly i accompanied her. By the sounds of it she is no different to you. She won't stop when she starts and would of been there till midnight if i hadn't been there. Anyway i said to her before we went i hope you lose. Baffled by this she asked why. I said gamblers like us ( i mean gamblers with a serious problem) never win. When we lose we lose. When we win we become more addicted gamble more and ultimately in the end give it back and usually more besides. I said if you win today you'll be back Wednesday ( her next day off ) and lose more than you won. If you win Wednesday as well you'll be there all day Thursday and so on basically till it's gone. Anyway she said well what's the best thing that can happen. I said you go today get hammered but miraculously get your money back it scares the shit out of you and walk out even. Fortunately that pretty much happened after been nearly £700 down to been £50 down. Thank feck it's done the job cos she hasn't been back. Point is as much as we'd love to be like the @Solario333 of this world who when they win they then take a break it just doesn't happen. As others have said go steady please mate be careful. Enjoy the winnings. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev40 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I remember that thought on the rare occasion I'd win and the first thing you think of is shit spend it . Get rid of it. What can i buy. Especially if was cash in my pocket. It's like you obviously want to win but then you don't feel comfortable with all that money in your pocket and you just want to put it to good use before the inevitable happens.

VillaLad Posted October 15, 2021 Author Share Posted October 15, 2021 Thanks everyone for your comments and advice. I done extremely well yesterday I didn’t even have a bet I gave the missus a big chunk and also gave her the money for the PS5 to hold for me until I can get one and told her if I ask for it back before I get the PS5 she can kick me in the nuts hearing this a big smile came on her face probably thinking that she will be kicking me in the nuts soon What I would like to say is since bet365 have started processing withdrawals into your bank within the hour I find it so much easier to withdraw where as before I would hardly ever withdraw as I wouldn’t wait 3 days to clear into the bank. 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the winnings. Most gamblers are very stubborn and often will not walk away from a slot until it pays a bonus, and even then may think it should have Paid more...... and the trouble with current online slots is that 99 out of 100 bonuses are very small and can tempt you to continue. All said , after losing for so many years ( 45) I have developed a disciplined approach which forces me to rest after a precise number of days . This does cut down losses and sometimes we have a winning month or two ..... but really it only enhances the pleasure when I return and often win small amounts. I am not trying to win huge , because I don't need huge money , I am just trying to live in the moment and enjoy each day , taking pleasure ,not anger, from my betting . My net deposits are now reduced to 100s instead of tens of 1000s . In my life food , travel ,leisure , and friends are far more important , but gambling does have a place ,for risk has always and continues to be exciting . I totally empathise with those who find it difficult to stop until every penny is committed , but have had my fingers burnt far too often to allow that back in my life. Walking in nature is my real love , and as some have mentioned , I do like my food ..... and spend all winnings on quality not quantity . less speed more rest ............ = a happy day . 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
