Title: What ugly incident or occurrence have you ever experienced in gambling?

You can tap on the image to watch the full video. It was crazy to see this kind of luck slip from a gambler's hands simply because his device malfunctioned. It was funny to me, but at the same time, it saddens me. I wonder how bad the gambler felt.

Have you been faced with this kind of gambling problem? If not this particular one, what other annoying incident have you ever experienced in gambling?

On that video, what happened was that a dude from South Africa was gambling on a casino site known as Betway. The guy staked ZAR 277.08, and when he started the round, he got about 4,870.24x multiplier, which doubled his staked amount up to ZAR 73,059, which is about $3,900+. he lost the money because he was unable to cash out before he crashed.

In my case, I have not actually experienced any situation like that, apart from the usual disappointment you will experience with a club after you place a bet on them, believing so firmly that nothing will stop that club from winning, but they end up losing.

I felt there is need to still continue this discussion here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5481329.msg63485570#msg63485570)

I saw this video on one of the popular social media channels, either Facebook or Instagram. It was a funny occurrence for those watching it, but it was a heartbreaking experience, and we can't tell what the guy who placed the bet might be feeling right now.
 
I don't gamble much, and even the few times I gamble on slots and other casino games, I have never had any awful experience ever that I can think of; it's always either my game plays as predicted or it goes sideways, which is just the two-sided result of gambling. I have never experienced any form of system malfunction.

It would be a very sad experience with whoever the account holder might be. It is quite unfortunate he or she had  such an experience which should not have been. Possibly there should have been a network glitch from his or her network provider and made him or her unable to followup which resulted to their losses. It is quite unfortunate though.

I think one should be very much careful with their network coverage because that is another way that people do record losses without them knowledgeable about the scenario. The account holder should be very much alert this time as not to record such occurrences again.

Nothing like the one in the video has happened to me. I'd say the only similar thing would be to overbet on missclick or to fold on missclick also when playing cards and I had a winning hand. But in the case of the video, almost 4,000 quid must hurt.

If I were in his situation for sure I would throw my phone since that was a very unlucky one. I haven't experienced that with gambling as I do make sure that when I do gamble there is no third-party hindrance that makes me lose, so I should be using a working and fast device. I only experienced not being able to bet on a match in the NBA that I was supposed to be betting on, but because I saw something I needed in an online store, I used the money that I was supposed to be betting on that game to buy that item, and guess what? I am supposed to be winning 3x my bet.

That's the worst thing that can happen to you in a crash game, I play crash games from time to time, and it's frustrating when you are late by a second to cash out what more if you cannot cash out a life-changing amount because of a malfunctioned device.

I wonder who this bettor is and if has he recovered from that frustration because I feel that it's not easy to get over with that kind of experience and I will need therapy to get this bad experience over.

The awful experience that has happened to me I know must have happens to some gamblers if you gamble on sport bet, football to be precisely, was when I placed a bet on 15 games that played for two weeks. The longer the slip, the higher your wins but a slim chance of winning. I had 14 games outcome as predicted and I was called by the bet shop agent for a cash out and I was too confident in my prediction that the last game will win, so I turned down the offer of $300, as the total amount of money is $1570. Finally when the match took place, the last game cut my slip and I was very angry towards my decisions on not accepting the cash out offer.

A day I will never forget.....
On that faithful day, I was holding a small money on me which its not enough for me to do what I wanted to do that day and that's my last cash for that week so I decided to gamble if luck will be on my side that day so that I can increase the money, I started gambling and I got my first gain but still won't be enough although it could have gone a long way but with the greedy in me, I had to put all the money back again to double my hustle but worse of worst happened, when I was about to do cash out my phone starts malfunctioning which I cried and beg my phone to function again and even promise to leave once it allows me to cash out but all to no avail and I ended up being stranded that day.  Worst day so ever.

I've watched this video for the second time, and I can't still imagine the timing of the sudden malfunction of his device. Unfortunately, it happened at that particular moment. Such malfunctions don't usually occur, and you would normally be able to tell whether your device is still in good condition or not.

Ever since, I have had no bad experience which is the same as the video. The thing that I might call an ugly incident of me while gambling is that I feel like there's an empty percentage of luck in me. One time I played, all bets were lost until my balance turned zero. Aside from that, my losses are always greater than the times I win.

Aviator predictor crash game is one of funnies crash one could ever participate sometimes breaks someone heart when you will fund a huge amount and lose it within a twinkle of an eye, this game is normal game i do play then with my phone it was build with my then and i never knew someone could gamble over it and win some cool cash from it. From the image above, if i were that person who place the game after giving much x i wouldn't wait till it crashes before i could take my profits most times you won't know when it would crash but if you are that smart enough you might have a good cashout from it before it finally crashed.

I clicked on the picture but the video no longer works has it been deleted, I can't see how this happened until the multiplier level is high but the phone doesn't work.

I have never experienced an incident like this, at least it happened when playing slots and the connection was lost. For me, this incident is not like that because what is more annoying is that winning is right in front of our eyes, but there are other things that we never expected.

I have never experienced any bad incidents in the game, nor do I often crash when playing.

That's the hard part: when you win a large amount of money in a casino, the problem is that you can't withdraw it because the problem is with the casino platform. It seems like the casino platform doesn't want to release the money you won on their gaming platform.

What casino game platform did you see? That's why we must have discipline and control over ourselves as gambling players because it can destroy our lives and the money we have if it's used incorrectly in our lives as well.

What happened in the video is really heartbreaking for the person. He is deprived of such a large profit share only because of his device error. But I don't gamble myself. And I have never been a victim of any such experience. But I think everyone should stay away from gambling. Because whether you take it as entertainment or as a means of earning, it will hurt you. It happens from two sides. One is financial and the other is emotional.

I can understand what the gamblers feel and even more than what I feel, because the victory was hampered because the cellphone did not respond.

Maybe this is not a bad experience and I'm sure most people also experience things that I experienced. When I played at the Gates of Olympus, for example, when the X500 multiplier came, but there was no broken symbol, it was something that was very disappointing for me.

I am sure that many people like the game Gates of Olympus will experience the same thing.

I think I have already seen this video but it was not available anymore if you try to click it. It says;

Well, based on what I have remembered there is an error that occured on claiming or tapping that cashout icon whether it is human, device or internet  error that caused that liquidation of the gamblers funds. It could also be that he is over confident and having this adrenaline rush that is why he over tap it and lose all his winnings.

What do you mean by the device not working?
Is his smartphone not working properly?

If the device doesn't work, it seems like there is a tendency for manipulation from the owner of the gambling site.
But if there is no problem with the device and it is the effect of the person's greed, I am sure it is purely the gambler's fault.

But here the "luck" factor is also at stake and that's gambling, that's why I always stay away from gambling. :)
PS - I can't play the video because I'm traveling and my internet access is very slow, my current position is near the mountains, rarely signal.

I have had a similar experience but my case is attributed to greed and not a system malfunction. I have always found it so difficult to cash out games even when the amount is the amount I have wished for when I bet sometimes. Let me share my most recent experience here.

Last year in December, I staked on a multi-bet with $50 with a potential win of $1500. The game played to the point that I was shown a cash out of $650 and I needed just $500 to settle an expense but greed made me refuse to cash out the $650 and I ended up regretting not cashing out after I lost the bet.

one of the problems with gambling is our inability to control our greed. We should be guided against greed.

The experience I have seen in gambling that that could not get off my memory in a short while is the case where a friend of mine who works in a casino shop void a customer's game of about 1 million,thinking the game will not play,but it was unfortunate for him that that day,run ran out of him.Ti cut the story short,at the end of the weekend,which was Sunday evening,the owner of the slip that was played came and told their cashier to give him his won money,and the cashier answered what money are you talking about.At the end of the matter,the gambler involved the police,and the girl was agreed .

Just looking at the video, I felt sad because I remembered my ex-husband who was crazy about gambling, destroying our small family.
The video seems to be the result of greedy gamblers wanting to make more money but failing to achieve this because of a system error. I don't know, maybe this is just manipulation.

Actually, I don't want to bring up my past, but because this is an anonymous forum (for me), I accept sharing information about my previous story.
Gambling gave a bad story to my family so I divorced my husband because my husband rarely came home, didn't provide a living and spent all my savings on gambling, it was very bad for my life story.

I have experienced something similar when playing the same Aviator game, I lost about 5 rounds that I played so I decided to wait for a while before placing my next bet, after staking and Betting the plane flew up to multiple of x20 and I was satisfied with where it got to so my plan was to cash out immediately, I was tapping on it but it refused to work then the next thing that displayed on my screen was slow connection. This is quite a very disheartening experience because I was about winning a very huge amount of money but due to the network fluctuation I lost the bet. Sometimes I  don't even think it's from the network, it might be from the bet site perhaps they are keeping track of the odds and probably don't want people to win too much

I have never had any bad experience in relation to the device or browser malfunction in gambling; my worst experience is having a bad day with more than 10 rolls, yet no single win lmao. I even used the normal multiplier of 1.99x, so I called it a day.

The only problem I've experienced from gambling is a problem I experienced from a gambler who I had as a staff, and then I entrusted some amount of money to them to go get materials for work. He ended up using all the money to play a virtual game; lost all the money, ran away, and stayed off contact for two weeks. I had to raise another amount of money to fill up so that I could meet up with the target for the work, and it was not a small amount of money. That was the worst experience I've had with a gambler.

That really is an ugly experience mate if that had happend to me I don't think I could raise money to fill up what is needed for work. Being confident to trust other people will sometimes lead us that way. Lucky for that staff guy you had you are very responsible if not I don't think he won't end up in jail for what he did.
