    really pissed off with myself . I’ve been really good for so long and fell hard this week  🙁

    knowing that roulette is my curse I’ve been staying well away from all online and bookies where possible .

    Trying to stay to footy bets only at lower stake etc .

    ive got gamban In place and GameStop etc but a visit to the bookies and a play in the roulette a few weeks ago win me around £1000 from £200 and then a further £400 a day or so after so I was mega pleased knowing the FOBTS were going to £2 max spin I wanted to have one last flutter before they did .

    well

    i might as well have stuck a fist up my arse the good it did . £1000 loss in less than 30 mins.

    and then today managed to get on some Malta online casino and put in £100 with £100 bonus match got it up to near £700 but the bonus wagering didn’t move after nearly £2000 in wagering so mega tilted and then upped the stake and lost it all .

    now yes this is all on me and even though I have practically spent winnings and haven’t really lost anything I do feel ashamed that I did so well for so long and then fell so hard off the wagon .

    my prides took a real beating this week knowing that 1 cup of coffee at Betfred cost £1000 . That’s more expenseive than them coffee beans that monkeys shit out.

    But I shall pick myself up and once again realise that I’ve done well before I can again …

    anyone else going through the struggle …

    Had many expensive cups of coffee in my time. Unfortunately I’ve done the same on many occasions. i know it’s no consolation but the money was winnings. I’ve been in today for footy bets and the fobt got a tenner off me. Was so tempted to carry on but I’d left bank cards at home thank fuck. It’s hard to swallow mate but we just got to move on. I’m sure you will and probably have by now.

    Good morning, your post resonates with myself, you have described me and I know those feelings all to well and it’s horrible but deep down we know we’ll overcome the bad feelings pick ourselves up ready for the next round?

    i laughed to myself regards the expensive coffee as it reminded me of the breakfast that cost me £800 at my local casino, I was actually out of the place sat in the car ready to go home with £800 in my bag ( this by itself is a rarity walking out with money) it was 5.45am and my mate turned to me and said fancy a brekky so back in we went and well you can guess the rest ???

    I got my brother with me atm to save me from trying those new Fobt & so that my Chinese meal will only cost me the £10 that it says on the menu ???

    Ive done the same as you peeps to many times to recount ? My last pasta aribiatta cost me £650 & the one before that cost me & £550 all from my winning of off Centurion 50p spins that I built up over 4 months, I was probably still up but does it dam hurt ? When I lost I was playing those mega £10 spins and never won above £60 in any spins ?

    He has not really only lost his winnings,as if we think like that then we are never just spending our winnings as over our lifetimes all of us gamblers are down so never actually spend any winnings:).

    ive lost alot in recent weeks…not gambled now for about 9 days,but about 2 weeks ago i was 4.5k in(fucking extra chilli) then got very luck and hit a nice one which got me up to 7.5k which i withdrew,but all nice wins really do is make us just gamble again,and as usual over the next few days i lost the 3k “profit” plus that 4.5k i was down at one point,all wins do is give us more money for a bit longer unless we spend it fast haha.

    I would gamban myself but it would be counter productive to what i do,so just have to try and be stronger/have more willpower for once in my life to not gamble and just do offers where it is in my favour.

    Yeah it’s hits like that that make you play more sometimes .

    I have always spent what I can afford and really gambled above my means  now and again .

    i just wanted to leave the FOBTs on a high knowing that I had the last big win instead of a big loss . That is what’s drawing me back in !!!!

    We all know we’re down in the long and if i go out and let’s say win a grand it’s only money I’ve lost in the past. The difference is the loss is written off because if i thought like that I’d be in chase mode permanently. Not to mention probably permanently depressed. If i lose it’s gone that’s it. Nothing i can do about it. Sometimes it’s nice to win and just enjoy it but as i said we all know we will be down in the long run.

    The number of £500 shits ive had over the years is silly. Running in cos im busting and walking out with my bank account lighter also. We’ve all been there mate im sure. Hopefully the changes to the fobts are going to put off a lot of people. I for one dont fancy gambling just to try and spin roulette. I’ll no doubt have a go but cant see myself getting into it.

    I’ve done the same, built up a massive profit from bookies roulette during the week, playing them for short periods of time and then leaving because I was supposed to be working, then the day comes when you have all day to yourself, you still have the massive wad of notes in your coat pocket and you think, ‘What’s the harm? I’ve got a massive bankroll so even if I go on a bit of a losing streak I can rescue it!”… and then of course you proceed to spunk the entire wad with zero enjoyment and then have to fight really hard with yourself to not go to the cashpoint..

    Did similar today. Thought I’d have a bash as I’ve recently got back into slotting after a bit of a break. Looking through my earlier post of why I quit reinforces why I’m stopping again. I’m down £350 today because I chased fathead in Reactoonz and then got suckered into the megaways slots. I’ve stopped binge drinking as much as I used to so I have more disposable income, but it’s still gone wasted.

    I have definitely fallen of the wagon and I can relate to what you are saying, I can’t seem to stay away.

     

    The situation I am in right now is that I have £1.60 to last me until Friday, I have no food.

     

    Sorry to be so down in this reply I am just a bit sad right now, on the plus side I have just seen that the bandit has put up a new video so will get stuck right into that 🙂

    Yeah it hurts when you get suckered in .

    Your like surly it can’t lose 3,4,5,10,25 times in a row !!!!!

    And you know the worst feeling of all is then you don’t have enough to cover your bet so you restake and the big numbe ryou was chasing all of a sudden drops for a fraction of what you had the previous spin .

    that right there is the tiltiest tilt cunting thing ever !!!
