If you think about the last two vids how the balance ripped through 3k and the first 1k on Sunday put that into perspective if that was £5 stake that would 10k loss. I know there were a couple of dond buys second to last vid but upping it to a fiver for an hour long highlighted video could be easily a 5k loss. To me that’s very risky but like you say if he wants to and can afford then I’m all for it. If it stays at £2 plus the odd high stakes vid then fine. No dramas either way.

Omg I’m not surprised you were panicking like mad. Happy it ended well and thing is you can’t tell her off lol. Last year i was talking to a lady in liverpool at her front door. She was in the porch and i was outside. Next thing i hear slam. Her son not even 2 years old shut the inside door leaving his mother in the porch locked out. All the other doors were locked. She grabbed his hand through the letter box then eventually he let go. He started to go upstairs as they had no stair gate. Well she went hysterical. I’d already phoned the police who were still on the way. She almost put her hand through the window screaming and panicking. Blood all over her hands I’m there grabbing hold of her trying to calm her down before the police arrive. I ask her to think who has a key. Her in laws had a key and somehow she reels off their phone number so i ring them and tell them to get over to her house. They eventually arrive followed by 2 police cars 1 fire engine in this tiny cul de sac. Half an hour this all takes of which i obviously stay with her the whole time. I’d never met her until that day but i couldn’t leave her. She actually rang me the following day to thank me for staying with her. Anyway point is I’ve seen first hand the panic in a mother when she can’t either find or get to her child. It’s instinct as the panic sets in. It’s also the unconditional love a parent has for a child as well. You know what’s quite strange i think I’m in that area of liverpool today. I might pop in. I hope if i do she has invested on putting a latch on her door.

Southport wb what’s wrong with cleethorpes ?. Them 10p £5 jackpots can still take £50 off you so be careful.

I don’t know where to start here. All my life I’ve gambled. Even since i was a kid I’ve played slots and gambled on anything and everything i could. I know no different. I have never not gambled so i don’t know what it’s like not to gamble and a life without it. Even been on gamstop i would still visit arcades and play slots occasionally play fobts put bets on and you my mates account for online poker. Over 30 years of gambling. 25 days ago now i decided I’d had enough. I haven’t placed a bet. Put even 10p in a slot. No online poker. I still maintain i will play poker in the pub on Saturday night £10 buy in but as far as bookies arcades and online goes they can do one. It’s been a difficult 25 days but I’m determined as hell. I’ve had amazing support from lots of people and now i can’t let them or myself down. I hope i can do this permanently i really do. I didn’t want to make a post like this until i was a few weeks into stopping. Sometimes I’m a bit bored and I’m trying to fill my time up. I’m certainly not anti gambling and i wish i could gamble sensibly and in moderation but i cant. I wish i would of tried to stop years ago now. I’ve no idea if i will succeed and i feel this is one of the biggest challenges in my life. I’m a competitive person. I wont lose. This will not beat me. I will beat it.

massive well done haz it wouldnt of been easy to open up and share with us your journey and with that attitude i believe you will beat it pal start a thread up just for your progress  to log it all im starting to question whether i need a break or stop all together myself its got the point where im getting wins after months of losses and not withdrawing it just keep playing and ive only gambled for around 8 years so to see you’ve Gambled all that time and still tackling it is a very inspirational I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST

Thanks mate. I think tbh I’ve done this at a time where i just couldn’t see myself winning anymore. Can’t pick winners for toffee anymore. Slots seem to be getting worse and harder to win. Fobt roulette been reduced to £2. So i thought if there is ever a time it has to be now. As regards to your own gambling I’m always here for advice. I’ll never tell anyone what to do but i will always give a 100% honest answer so if ever need anything just ask.

Played cash and tournaments online will 888 bet365 party poker and poker stars. When i had my head on i made quite a bit of money went through a six month spell of playing 1.10 and 2.20 tournaments winnings 2 and finishing 2nd twice. Each tournament had 2000 plus entrants but when my mind wasn’t right I’d go big on cash or play 55 dollar tournaments or 109 dollars losing mainly on cash games. I’m probably up on tournaments if I’m honest but they take hours and hours which i don’t have. I’ve always said i will still play live in the pub. It’s a tenner and yes you can re buy but i see it as entertainment and it’s the only form of gambling I’m in profit. My poison has always been slots but if i bet on horses or football i know it can tilt me to play slots so got to give that up as well.

I could have wrote this as it sums up me when playing poker. If I’m playing without tilt and I have the time I can easily run deep in many of the micro tournaments then it comes down to the last 20 players or so and I jam with a premium hand only to be called by some donkey with a ridiculous hand that he should never be calling with and somehow gets there whilst I’m out and the mouth breather gets to go on to the final table and make a decent score that’s when I go on tilt and start playing cash games for half of my bankroll trying to get a quick double up only to be 2 outed when I get put all in with KK/AA as I play a bit on the nitty side when I’m playing $100-200 stacks… <span style=”font-size: 1rem;”>But that’s poker, there’s always an element of luck involved and I still love the game I just clearly don’t have the patience or mental fortitude to handle the varience swings.</span>

I’ll be a month gamble free come the 15th and it’s not been easy in the slightest; hardest addiction I’ve ever faced as its constantly on my mind even when I’m trying to distract myself by gaming or watching a movie.

They run £15+£10 rebuys at The Genting in Liverpool on Saturday nights that I’m tempted to start playing only problem is it starts at 7 and running deep could mean quite an expensive taxi ride home since it has to go through the mersey tunnel and obviously it’s a casino so I’d have to take steps such as only taking the cash I’ll need for the night and leave the debit cards at home. I’m still mulling it over but it would be nice to have some excitement even if its only once a month or so.

Well done on doing so well mate, we are quite similar when it comes to gambling so I know how hard it’s been for you. Hopefully this time next year we can both post about the wads we’ve managed to save up

Hope so mate. I must admit i really do enjoy live poker. I know you can still lose a bit but it’s not online. It’s part of the night out to me. It’s not a mare if i lose and tbh I’m actually well in profit. If that’s all i do I’m happy.

[Haz40 WANTED $1,167 Outlaw]

Thank you for the kind words liberty the devil and anyone else I’ve missed. It’s not been easy. It’s not going to be easy but i will try my damm hardest. I promise I’ll be nothing but honest in this attempt to stop.

[Haz40 WANTED $1,167 Outlaw]

Thanks mate i did know you had stopped and did wonder how you were getting on. So pleased you’ve managed to stick to it. I’m not seeing the benefit just yet but I’m confident it won’t be long. If i come this far I’m not giving in.

[Haz40 WANTED $1,167 Outlaw]

Thanks xbob. The comments on here mean alot ?.

Jb i didn’t gamble online till about 18 months ago. At the time i was debt free. I’m now approx 8k in debt. About 2k slots 4k poker and 2k arcades. I suppose like many i found videos on you tube and began to watch. Rolla was the first followed by Steve then a few others who i intermittently watch. Never once did i think i can replicate their wins. This looks fun or thinking i would make money. I’m old enough and dumb enough to make my own choices and mistakes. I have a very addictive personality and even with warnings i would of done the same thing. I have only myself to blame for the money i have lost but that’s me. A young naive new to online gambling 18 year old may see things differently and yes you are correct there is always more that can be done. Bandit bangs on all the time saying any deposit see it has gone. How many times have i heard him say that. As for other streamers i hear very little although rolla is incredibly supportive to people who choose to try and stop. In his recent streams i didn’t even know what site he was playing on as i can’t even remember him mentioning it. Gambling is an addiction which is easy to hide. Easy to get out of hand and worst of all easy to ruin lives. I do believe there is more that can be done yes but i don’t think in my opinion there will be ever enough.

Think I might join you Haz. Keep up the good work mate. I’m the unluckiest gambler in the world, so fuck knows why I do it lol.

Gonna be hard but I’m gonna give it a try from today. Hope it carries on going well for you, and it gets easier each week that goes by.

Gambling addiction is a hard as fuck habit to crack. And all this manipulated advertising by streamers has to stop now. They say they understand and feel for their followers losing thousands and fucking their lives up. Yet all they do is put a 2 second clip saying “gamble  responsibly” in the front of their uploads. Then proceed to deposit thousands of pounds….spin at fivers and tenners…and put links to several casinos in the descriptions. It’s just a massive head fuck that they all do.

I know they have to earn a living but….by now they all should be earning a ton from affiliation. So why not just remove the links. Actually upload some videos explaining the pitfalls of becoming a compulsive gambler….talk about how it’s all a big con. Talk about how this horrific addiction can ruin people’s lives.

Rolla did one once! About 1- 2 years ago. But other than that, I don’t think a single affiliated streamer has opened up and been true about addiction. I’d like to see Bandit do one. I know he’s spoken in here about it. But I’d like to see a video from him. With no links or fuck all. Just for him to be open and honest about this truly manipulative and cancerous system.

 

Cheers mate. I think was helped is watching bandits last 2 vids going hundreds of spins without  a bonus and seeing a grand disappear in no time just on a £2 stake as well because it shows the reality of how slots can play. I hate to see people lose with a passion but showing this on videos really does make you think there not worth it anyway. If you give them up yourself you know I’m always around to help and advise. I’ll never to try and persuade anyone to do anything in terms of gambling.
