Walk away, that’s pretty much what happened to me aswell. Haven’t gambled for 3 years now though, I was playing £.60-2 usually and I just had a few months where I was hitting everything and felt unstoppable. First massive win was on playboy and it was almost full screen wilds for something like 4000x, then a bit of everything from every provider, I lost of course but literally every week I was up by atleast a few hundred. Bonanza came out, had a 5000/3000x and whatever website I was going on I was hitting 3-500x every day a few times. Would jump on casumo, throw £50 on, turn it into £300 with a quick bonus, withdraw the profit and keep repeating, often making several withdrawals a day.

 

I was working retail and only earned like a grand a month. It got to the point where I was earning that every week gambling so I quit my job, this was going well and I had gone from a few quid in my bank account to 5 figures and a ISA with a few grand. Then I remember the same time the PS4 came out I didn’t buy one as I was getting a bit obsessed with money and gambling, and didn’t wanna waste a few hundred. The next week I lost that amount 5 times over and I was angry at myself for not atleast having something to show for it. Needless to say the stakes were raised 4/5/6 with the occasional 10 for good measure. Didn’t take long til that money was gone, some weeks I would profit by about 10 grand…didn’t matter though as when you play higher stakes that’s pocket change. Then the loans started being taken out and yeah it’s a slippery slope and when you play those stakes you realise almost all the streamers out there are fake as fuck as even 20k won’t last you long gambling at high stakes.

 

Quit now or stay low stakes, as everyone knows gambling is big business and if it were profitable for the consumer it wouldn’t exist, so the more you bet the more you lose. You might be having some good luck right now but imagine the losses when your playing 10 times your current amount, will wipe out your recent good fortune overnight.

They are fake as fuck, they came out of nowhere and all of a sudden they were being promoted by Roshtein and he kept hosting them……which tells you it all. They all come across as the typical new streamer, loud, annoying and Scandinavian and to top it off obviously extremely false and pushing a self-created image that they want to project because they think it will bring them in business. To our British eyes and as native English speakers from a country that has a history of acting/comedy/theatrics we can generally see straight through all of these fake guys and find it laughable but they sadly work on “poorer” Europeans, i.e Central/Southerneners and young adults from richer countries, you rarely see an educated native English speaker in the streams of the obvious fakes, or for that matter you never see any actual adults, its normally bad English written by non native speakers or decent English written by an 18 year old who is spending their £100 a week money they get from parents on gambling.

 

My general rule with streamers now is if they are fairly new, amass thousands of viewers and have an annoying high pitch Scandinavian accent and have a team of 2-4 guys that they change daily then they are fake, casinodaddy are the exception but they are still using masses of bonuses but they have built up a massive revenue stream over years of doing this and can definitely afford to do it, whereas these dodgy crews of 3-4 guys who have appeared in the last 18 months and they all live in Malta….yeah, they are all fake as fuck. Its not hard anyway, anyone with a functioning brain can figure out the genuine ones and to be fair, most of the popular ones are genuine .

Honestly the only people who should feel somewhat let down or annoyed by him are other streamers who are losing out on affiliate money, to anyone else he is just the same as the rest.

I dont get why its more exciting if its “real money”, its not your money, real or fake money at the end of the day it has no impact on you. None of its real to me because I aint withdrawing what the guys betting are, I couldnt give a cunt hair if nickslots or letsgiveitaspin withdraw 5k.

Honestly, why do people care if hes real or fake….so what, its not YOUR money. I couldnt give a shit if hes real or fake, same as bandit or any of the other streamers as at the end of the day its not money ill ever see and its just numbers on a screen so it has NO impact whatsoever on my life. It is hilarious when a streamer says, “we are up xxxx for the session”, no we fucking aint mate, you are. As such I really couldnt give a shit if hes real or fake, he is an entertaining character and if his money is fake or real he is exactly the same as every other streamer, they are all in it for affiliation and at the end of the day you dont see a penny of anything so I really couldnt give a shit or care about that argument.

I dont really watch casino streamers, ill give the odd watch or skim through them but I just feel that its weird as fuck that people get angry and defend other streamers, all of which only exist to get you as a customer for them so that they can take a chunk of your losses lol, ethics does not belong in a world of gambling and addiction. People need to find other things in their life if they can feel so strongly about people they dont know and people who are who are on a thin line in regards to ethics or morals.

Good read pal, glad you are on the mend, I enjoy posts like this on this forum….not because of the morbidness of course but it exposes people to the reality of how different people deal with being down in the dumps due to gambling addiction and not that we need it but its a good warning to others. Sorry to read you have crohns but dont get hung up on the causes just move forwards with your life now and drop the past and use the pain as a motivator to succeed in what you want in life.

 

I like you have also ruined most of my family relationships, stole lots from parents and took out numerous loans etc. Its not rational of course but when you are in the hole and have no where else to crawl you dont think about consequences, I havent gambled since about December 2017 also yet I dont really get an urge to gamble but I enjoy the actual “games” and being someone into computers and programming I take interest in new releases and games mechanics but thats just my nerdy side. I still watch streams but to be honest I would rather I didnt, short videos like bandits are best.

 

Thanks for sharing what must be difficult words to type but its good that there are people who frequently put emphasis on the destruction of gambling. I wont say to people dont gamble as most people I know who do have a flutter have it under control (but they are still massively down, especially those my parents age who have probably lost 6 figures in a lifetime that could have bought a house) but you just need to be vigilant. When I started I wasnt greedy and would regularly make £300-500 on slots each week playing at like £1.50-2 spins and I did that for months and rarely had a bad week as I would always cashout when in a reasonable bit of profit but after a while the stakes increased and the greediness kicked in where before I would withdraw what I deposited to cover losses I stopped giving a shit and just went wild, thats when you stop.

Been watching your videos since you had a few hundred subs but apart from the first few months I never really comment but I always watch your vids and browse this forum but yeah I can see why you feel that way and thought I would drop a comment. Sadly casino streamers tend to attract the type of chavs who live in pubs and bookies, talking about Tommy Robinson and getting jealous of other people and spewing hatred because of their I imagine inadequacies in life. On these forums and streams they have all found a place they can abuse other people on or claim anyone making a bit of money for themselves is a scammer because they never had the balls (or the money most likely) to do it themselves.

A mass culling would work but they would probably reappear, a large part of most casino streamers are just there for giveaways and trolling sadly, nothing real to contribute and they just like to spread hatred to make them feel better. Honestly my opinion is cut your giveaways out, I personally dont enter them and I dont think you should be doing them as it brings along so many wankers on all streams…sure people will lose subs/followers but so what, if you got money to giveaway then donate to food banks or a local charity that can benefit people in need and not some people who want free money from you and if they dont get it they will sling shit at you because they didnt win. Knock the giveaways on the head and get a few active mods on here to stop the shitposters when they start making mostly baseless accusations on you/others mostly out of jealous or the fact they they spunked all their wages in a day on slots. You are a entertaining bloke and you like alot of gamblers are very generous and thats a great attribute but its being abused and all its causing you is trouble. You cant win at the end of the day with giveaways and they cause so much hostility on your community that its just not worth it for you.

Are people that unaware of modern tech and financial crime? its not weird atall. I have had to do the same thing on several bitcoin exchanges I use, its not something I wanted to do but its something that is becoming commonplace and its not an issue is it.
