I'm not gonna kick you while you're down. That sucks! I hope you're able to realize what an absolute money sink gambling is. The odds are transparently against you. Nobody beats the house and its never enough. Even if you had turned that 250,000 into a million it wouldn't have been enough, you likely would've kept going, until it was all gone.

This is wild dude, you shouldn't have any money on your name. If you have family or parents let them hold money you have.
Coming from someone who is from a family of casino exploiters you should know that the longer you stay at the casino the higher the chances are that they'll wipe you. I saw a clip from you as well and your not analytic, your a emotional gambler which is even worse.

Do yourself a favour and stop streaming your gambling as well lol that shit will only give you a reason to go "back" to the casino.

My friend, I hope you're able to find a way through this. I watched a little bit of one of your videos, and I must confess, I couldn't even keep up with what was going on. I encourage you to seek support for your wellbeing.

I'm sorry to hear that. I would strong advise you seek help from family and friends. Like other user suggested let them hold your money until you're in a stable place. Money isn't everything and there is greener grass on the other side of this, stay strong.

This was all gambling winnings. I got super, super lucky winning it all. And I pushed my luck as all gambling addicts do

Im not in debt, nor was this loan money

"It doesn't matter if I win or lose, my brain is cooked. I am completely cooked."

This is the end-game for most designers of these games. I will never play chase games. Have watched people get stabbed IRL over them too. But my point is that when u said that it truly speaks volumes about how strong operant conditioning is and how addiction needs to stop being stigmatized as a drug thing but can manifest not only through addiction (assuming it is second most addicting next to chemicals although an argument can be made that correlation is not causation. Either way I am rambling now and sorry for the loss of the person in the video but just blew my mind when he said that because that is literally the end goal of most casino's that deploy reinforcement techniques and it is done in some of the most subliminal ways you can even imagine tbh

except with bytes thats fun

It not about winning or losing. Its about getting your hit. Gambler's will always lose all the money they can possibly come across. We know how it always ends. But we do it anyways, because we get our hit.

What is the fun in gambling something i care so little about. The dopamine comes from risking something you care about losing

I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with addiction. Have you considered seeking professional help or support from loved ones? Take care of yourself.
