When I look back on my entire playing career I have to say that every big win actually makes everything worse... also my streak at the end of may at the beginning of June unfortunately made it worse. I have never played high - but won once and then lost a lot of it again high. At the moment I am not even satisfied with 4-500€ winnings - no you want a big thing - and the result is always the total loss. Hard time right now but I'm slowly coming down from Trip ...

Unfortunately, I also had to make the experience. When I started with GJ, I started playing with 50 cents (sometimes also with 20 cents). Since the disaster 2015, where I had the winnings of my life, I no longer play under 1€ and winnings of less than 500€ I also do not let me pay out. I also increase my stakes quickly after winnings. From time to time, but most of the time it does not work.

But I think it goes to most players so! What most players dream of, should actually be their nightmare: A real Big Win!

The joke of the whole thing is that a month before this lucky streak, I wrote to a player in her 40s who won over €40,000 at StarGames with a Deposit of €150 (the player had never gambled before). Within a year, the money was gone again + her private assets + about 80,000€ from her husband's business account (who was abroad at the time).

I was still thinking at the time that if I ever won 20,000€ or more, I would stop gambling. I decided to stop after the winnings, but the problem is that it is more fun (especially the high stakes). Gamblers don't just want to win money, they are looking for the thrill. And this kick they get over time only through higher stakes, higher winnings, etc. Similar to the Herion junkie who needs more and more stuff to experience the same or a similar high feeling.

If it was all about greed and money, there would be no millionaires playing themselves broke in Las Vegas or German casinos. Many gamblers think that a higher income or a mega-win could cure their gambling addiction. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Those who earn more only inevitably gamble higher over time and a big win only makes everything worse.

I can't even get into that. This mega win has never happened in all my years of gambling. I once managed to turn 39 euros into 2800 euros in the gaming house. That is also undisputedly my highest win ever. Online, I would also like to have something like that. I often wonder how I would react if I made several thousand from a 50 euro Deposit

If you have a Gambling addiction problem, then the profit would be rather negative for you. I wonder at this point what happened to Robin with his 160K win? Wished him a happy birthday via Skype - unfortunately no answer. Either he is busy investing the money and buying nice things or he f**ked up and carried a big part of the winnings to gambling houses, casinos or online casinos. Really hope that the latter did not happen ...

I am currently quite happy that it has gone down with me again something with the stakes.
After December I've actually always played at least 2 euros bet and more and there is
but the money is gone so quickly
The joy of 50 cents free spins is at least there again, just depends on the game (Knights Life / Rail Road)^^

When I think that I then played back in December with the interim 30,000, - with such really sick stakes...boaaa
So many free spins on Book of Dead with 80 euros bet, 80 euros!!!!
On the other hand I would never have got so high, if I had not played so high...
At some point came from sunnyplayer or from the game itself(?) a message that I know no longer 200,000, - won and
180.000, - loss have made oO

But yes the rush was just unnatural (no alcohol)

@Hammerdammer - Is perhaps not so bad, everything seems to hold with you yes still quite in the framework or?

I have to say that I immediately repaid 10,000 of my 12,000 euro payout (privately because of a car from 4 years ago).
Alone out of self-protection, I would always immediately transfer the majority of a large (>5,000, -) payout to my parents...(which can not be the solution^^)

Unfortunately, it can only be a short-term solution and it also depends on how you do it. I once had a buddy (also addicted to gambling), who always deposited money with his parents, later with me, or wanted to save. He told me not to give it to him until date X or not until he had saved X amount. I don't remember exactly what he wanted at that time. Anyway, he arrived the same month and wanted the money. As promised I didn't want to give it to him but that degenerated into such a violent quarrel that I gave him his money back. Later then again quarrel, because I gave it back to him The same game then with his parents.

The problem is that you are an adult and the money belongs to you and you can do with it what you want. With Gambling addiction can also do with it what you actually do not want.

In the end, unfortunately, it is up to each individual himself. Self-exclusion brings nothing, because you can continue to play either in other Online Casinos or worse in gambling houses or pubs. Let money manage leads to disputes, etc.

In the end, all these remedies are unfortunately only a first step, which can prevent worse in the short term. In the long run, the first steps must be followed by others. For example, players should at least try to get help or support from professional people. Personally, I always thought this was bullshit, but I'll probably try it soon ...

@Hammerdammer - Might not be so bad, seems like everything is still pretty much in check with you right?


Not even close unfortunately. I have the big problem that I can not leave it. I never win so much and therefore play rather on small stakes and then also very long

As soon as I have money, I tingle all the time to go gambling with it. That's very transparent. Daniel had once written something good about this

If you as a gambling addict, finally all his money has gambled away in the month, you can sleep peacefully again. Unfortunately, this is the case for me

I very often Deposit small amounts and then gamble them away. This annoys me so much. If I set myself e.g. as a limit 200 euros, then I pay nciht 200 euros and try on at least 1 euro my luck, noiiiiiin. I full of shit always have to deposit 25, 35 or 50 euros and then play on small stakes. I lose at the end the same sum, but I never have the chance to win something very high, because I do not play on high stakes, because I can work myself seltend high. If I ever manage to do that, it eats it back down

I vollpfosten but always pay 100€ / 200€ and sometimes I work my way up. I play less often as before and usually shorter. But in the end it sucks just as much if not more

I can't tell you which is more full of shit. Deposit 4x 50€ and play with 40 cents or 1x 200€ and start with 2€ ...
