My life story in the online casinos

Hello all,

i have always played but at that time in the arcades and never had debts or anything else, sure there were months where it was just tight and you slipped something in the dispo but that was all manageable, earn actually with about 3000 net quite good.
In February this year I started to play at bwin also times in the Online Casinos, there I made a mega profit of 11000 euros and thought to me wow soas you never had in a gambling house, then I continued and as no longer ran I blocked me there, then to the next casino it was in the case Unibet and there I made with the last remaining 3000 euros of the win incredible 35000 and also there I locked me after some time but still had a plus of 23000 euros, then it went to Twin where after 4000 euros deposits also came back again 12000, but with the casino I had my problems, so still to Wildz and there came the big hit at Book of Dead on 5 euros bet a full screen research and 25000 euros.
I had the feeling it would always go on so I made then vacation bought me a pair of nice things but all the rest I have at Wildz, at Platin, and at WestCasino again verballert, I have now 3 loans with 50000 euros Debt I have all taken from June to October and have everything verballert.
I pay now every month to the 1000 Euro installments still 500 to balance my credit card which is with 18000 in the minus.
For me even if I still played recently, I have decided to just give up and run after the big hit that no longer came, I have locked myself so far everywhere and I hope I make the jump from the hell of Malta.
Don't be blinded by everything because I had moments where my life became indifferent to me and that only because of this game,
my girlfriend knows the whole truth and supports me to finally stop gambling and pay off the debts.
Wanted to know if anyone has gone through something similar since this Corona time and if you have managed to make the jump and if so how?
Thanks and greetings

What you describe is a classic progression. From big hits at the beginning to a gigantic mountain of Debt at the end.
Quite a few people have experienced it the same way
From that point of view, your case is not an awesome one-off.
It's very important to have your girlfriend by your side, so you have a mental support that can get you out of the mess.

Always remember, the state without gambling and without debts, there was already once in your life.
So it is also possible to restore this state.
Even if it will not be easy.
Gambling addiction is one of the most insidious addictions you can have.
I wish you all the best.

This is a sad story that unfortunately happens again and again. The gambler thinks it goes on and on and the next big hit is sure to come. But that is very rarely the case. You have been overcome by a combination of Gambling addiction and megalomania and you have hopelessly gambled beyond your means. Especially gambling on debts is the beginning of bad end

Be glad that you have a well-paid job and a girlfriend who stands by you, so the story should be done in a few years and you can lead a happy life if you let gambling be

I personally wish you all the best and advise you to seek and accept professional help

Sign off here and make a nice rest of your life.
Greetings Bernd

So I personally would consider the whole thing rather as a normal case which unfortunately finds too little attention in this society.

A close friend of mine has 3 arcades. I am often with him, because on the one hand the coffee tastes very good and because he is there. Personally, I only play online and observe the behavior of the players there and now know many of the people there.

And your story I hear unfortunately!! far too often from many players or their acquaintances there. I can tell you stories. House gone (you hear more often and think oh, exaggerated scenario, but something like that really happens.), car gone, gold jewelry from mother gone, loans gone in one day, inherited money GONE!

In April this year a player I know had 5 heads in the games on 20€. 100.000€. Saw the money in the account. Casino I do not call otherwise some still think that to them likewise happens there. The guy has ne week not slept and sits since August in ner clinic.

All serious events, hidden and camouflaged by an industry that definitely does not live from the 100€ depositors per month

People are now switching from Online Casinos to arcades, because you can't just spend 5,000€ in an arcade. It's just not feasible, even if you play 10 machines at the same time. Then the store would also have to be empty, etc. . Therefore, I am even more pleased that there will soon be this € 1 limit. At least a step in the right direction

And I say right direction, because I think even if there are people who get along with your stakes well, there are on the other hand many more people who just do not get along with it and crash extremely. And the casinos profit enormously from these people.

Is it your own fault? You definitely can't say that. That would be too simple. The whole construct is based on the fact that the player is addicted

I wish you all the best. You can do it!

Kind of drifted off, just wanted to tell you again that to all appearances you are someone who is not in control of the game.

I am someone like that too. And the stories that you tell yourself "next time I'll do so and so" I and many others also know and we know that nothing changes next time

Start meditating. I can recommend it to you very much. Deal with it. This can help you to come down a bit and to see things differently.

And really from the heart all the best, can put me badly in your situation but I can at least understand what is going on. Who is at the bottom, can only go up!

I think the attempts are all beautiful and also meaningful. Addiction is bad. But you should first deal with why you play so much. So really ask yourself why. Because for most, the real reason is not just wanted to get money back in or can no longer stop

With, the sums and casinos you have probably spent a lot of time. Why? Nothing to do? You know what I mean?
Why do you gamble so much? And why is the loss not enough for you to really cut down or stop? You go so far as to tell your girlfriend everything and she helps you

That's really great of her. But why do you play so much? Shouldn't you be responsible for taking care of yourself?

I can't understand the high stakes. You might as well play the lottery.

Is yes ne completely different thing like Lotto, not comparable.


In the lottery, you type in a few numbers and wait to see which ones are drawn.
Chance 1: a few million in part

When you play Slos you win at every 2-3 spin times what, sometimes little, sometimes much, free spins, etc.

Sure you can also lose a lot, but playing the lottery makes no sense in comparison.
