Gambling Addiction - Inside Story

[brawhit1989]

My aunt is a gambling addict. I use to laugh at the thought. I use to think "just stop going you retard". Then I became one myself. It's fucking terrible.

[ighfee]

to anyone out there who wants to quit pokies - move to WA. seriously. there are no pokies here. plus plenty of good honest dollars on mining to be made. think of it, turn your life around by moving right away from these machines and then get a job in the mines, fifo from perth. 100k start. beautiful city, stress free, great beaches and no fuckin pokies to ruin your life,

how can you do better than that?

[itsdatboi711]

gambling was once fun when u first play.. 6yrs on im playing and is not f***kin fun no more i want to stop i cant i dont plan to go in i do like addict a chasing a buzz im not im trying to chase my money back but im getin left in a bigger hole. its worser then any drug and when you win a large amount it takes that back plus more. this sh*t needs to banned completely

[thompkinsbilal2]

THATS IF YOU LET THE GAMBLING DEMON BUILD RELIZE ITS A SCAM

[onenickelmiracle]

Tell me how many people would have gambling problems if the slots paid back 99%. The state wants the people to lose and have no interest in protecting them and they all work together in collusion.

[Lolbot15]

i just lost 300 dollar... damn i feel so fucking bad

[Christizm]

you guys wanna come her and say you cant win e.t.c all gamblers know that problem is you dont think that way you think your going to have a good day/nite and hit the big one as you been there long enough then Jackpot is for you or a big feature on a max hit e.t.c I know from experience I had some big wins and some big loses thats just gambling and its part of society accept it dont ridicule it

[davidvilla2122]

fuck gambling... crime is has better odds ;)

[paudiemaguire1]

I no longer see my wife and kids and it's all because of gambling.

I won shit loads of money and moved to Spain

[Zee96969696]

this video is very good

[1eyefor2eyes]

@rusela1 How is that sad? Please explain to me why you believe that the goverment should dictate everything you do with YOUR OWN cash? It is sad that people are weak enough to punt a paycheck gambling but that doesn't mean that the goverment should step in and tell everyone exactly when to wipe their ass, how many sheets of toilet paper they can use ect.. Real world kid, it will not be banned in our life time.

[NYMLVNV]

i'm an inhabitant of Las Vegas, n deal w. the same issues. good 4 u for exploring this. it is a serious problem w. serious consequences for many otherwise decent people. i agree it would pretty much take a bolshevik style revolution to erase gambling from society... there are in fact many countires/societies w. very little or no gambling establishments - God willing one day i hope to live there.

[planetrockford]

Before you set foot in a gambling establishment or go on-line know that the assholes who own these companies don't give a shit about you and the more you lose the more the sniggering twats love it.

[TinhVutXaUocMo]

i think i don't want to gamble anymore... </3

[als20syd]

gambling should be banned!!!!!!!!!!!

BUT the government is addicted to the taxx revenueeee

[cwood4ever]

@als20syd Gambling shouldn't be illegal no more that alcohol or cigarettes or drugs. Its none of your business or the governments business what your neighbor spends his money or time on. If you want to destroy your life on stupidity that's your business. Get government out of people lives and in the end more happiness because people wont be control and told what they can and cant do. Millions of lives are destroyed every year by alcohol yet that's legal. Mind your own business.

[1eyefor2eyes]

@als20syd Everyone should have a right to do with their money as they please as long as it doesn't infringe on someone elses rights. And gambling doesn't do that so it will never be illegal.

[bannedagainfromutube]

Not so much a story as much a it is gay techno music interrupted occasionally by some fat guy talking in a chair.

[Jcrof]

@bannedagainfromutube LMAO!

[zw0ecool]

what is that song that is playing "i love you baby, I love you baby?????""" Who sings it?

[Timx4]

I win 1000 bucks in one day,Maybe the next day I could win even more. I have target to buy a cellphone for free by gambling... When you have this thoughts, you are a problem gambler. Problem gambling is where you lose that you can't afford.

[jinguz]

[ggnub100]

In fact, casinos are made for people who DON'T gamble. People don't get addicted to gambling, they get addicted to casinos.

[ggnub100]

That's what's so fatal, is the word "CAN'T". Once they start winning, it's almost like they've defied the laws of physics. But once they've created this imaginary law.... it's over... they've got you by the mind. That's way more important than money.

[elareh]

ive ridden the gravy train pokies..poker ..horse racing ...sportsbetting.all of it...it didnt bury me but i lost bucket loads ..it all depends on your character ..secret in betting is control...if you dont have it ..start heading to the west gate bridge..fuck GAMBLING AND FUCK THE B/S ADVERTISING PIPE DREAM ...and behind the scenes horse racing ,greyhound racing ohh my god ... the EVIL that men do all for that coloured piece of paper...i hope their is a god cause in this life THERES NOTHING!!

[thebloddyzorrow]

Dont blame the casino, its not its fault, the casino is not forcing you play

[mrjules2008]

online poker is easy to regulate yourself i think and fun. fruit machines are the work of satin though with their lights and one way tunnel to poverty. i stopped playing as of jan this year and already saved like £700.

[wegotpokermoney]

online poker is great do it from the confort of your home check out my channel ill help you get started

[f1nesave]

CASINOS WERE DESIGNED TO LURE YOUR MONEY INTO THEIR POCKETS.

[IranMarzban]

criminal mafia governments allow gambling companies to rob weak people. Execute all the owners of casino's

[Avinator100]

i go in thinking im going to loose that way no matter what happens i always feel good about myself when i walk out :) .... true story ... and im up 40 bucks not much but im still happy :)

[uppityox]

my dads got an addiction to the stock market. he's lost over 400,000 dollars, we're in debt and he's still using it. i really have no idea what to do anymore.

[peterdedem]

Does anyone know the name of the song at 1.03? please answer

[smashtheironandclay]

im sick of the Governments love and use of these satan machienes.If I see any PM in heaven that was for the pokies I will owe it to remind him of what was in his heart and the suffering of us all daily.

[RedPillLondon]

[superchink28]

Every gamblers come out of casino, only have one thing in their mind, ONLY ONE THING... that is, "How to win the money back!".

If this is what's on their mind everytime they leave the casino that one thing is for sure, you CAN'T win!

[thebarcaroller]

Excellent Production , clearly shows how we are easily fooled with the Zionist / Illuminazi's magic tricks and mind control

5 Star Production !

[thebarcaroller]

Its staggering how the weak minded are so easily controlled with some lights and sounds with the illusion of potential financial gain.

The Zionist/ illuminati Mind Control experiment has been 100% successful .... soon as people wake the f*ck up and realize all religions have also been the same experiment and realize their whole lives are a complete illusion based on their own selfishness and ego the better the world would be.

[Chapas45]

You're no better than those wacko Muslims if you believe that Elders of Zion bullshit.

[Chapas45]

Fuck Muhammad and the Qu'ran.

[macdaddi88]

do u know muslims, pal...? the 72 virgins BS is  a hoax...if i have a BA in history - the elders looks real...check henry fords 4 volumes on the jews...and my wife is jewish , dickhead : )

[mrbankalot]

im -7000$ in 1 month and it is so damn depressing, so i wanted to search other peopls losses to feel better lol doesnt really help but man i need help, f** blackjack DONT DO IT!!!!!

[napajedlacek]

GAMBLING IS OWNED BY JEWISH ZIONISTS !!!

KILL THEM FIRST !!!

will not be any addiction later!

[Lilly2005japan]

satan seduces you lets win ,then he slowly destroys you over a period of years! wcf

[mrbankalot]

wcf?

[Graber23]

u are a fool u dont know anything by saying that.

[DemotivationBand]

I Love The Sluts

[flip92]

I purposely got banned from my local casino, it was my only choice, and I'm proud of it. ( I started a fight with some asshole on the floor)

[philivey712]

yea even when i was makeing 1300. bi weekely when i lost 100 or 200 in a check i felt depressed. but now i dont play blackjack cuz its a suckers game, i stick to low limit poker so its still fun and its somewhat skill game.

[skycladwow]

omg, done it all, help

[laughingoutloudfilms]

I've tried going to the casinos as the saying goes:

"If you don't play, you don't win"

But, I never did win! Grat Video!

[islamforworldnafter]

[219] They ask thee concerning wine and gambling. Say: "In them is great sin, and some profit, for men; but the sin is greater than the profit." They ask thee how much they are to spend; say: "What is beyond your needs." Thus doth Allah make clear to you His Signs: in order that ye may consider.

[3aw77]

Woah the pokies Woah the pokies Woah the pokies That's what its all about

[lovelyshoes21]

CAUTION TRUTH AHEAD.... If you could win money gambling there would be no-one working in petrol stations,bus drivers,low paid shop workers, etc etc...They are only playing on the PURE FUCKING GREED inside of you. Look at the people who own the casinos and look at the losers who gamble! ONLY ONE WINNER. We all would like something for nothing, It is NOT going to happen!!! YOU WILL LOSE OVER A LIFETIME IF YOU GAMBLE, EVERYONE would gamble if you could win. Serves them right PURE FUCKING GREED!

[loncummings9242]

Very cool video.I will vote for it!

[marthacattnurse]

Please listen to this guy, Dommie. can you relate?

[elareh]

always remember the action is the juice!!!

[cortezngl]

hes talking about what goes on in the mind of a gamblers head, the gambler thinks hes going to win with just 20 bucks so he keeps going back thats how sick it gets, gamblers will go with any amount of cash thinking thier going to win big time

[zeejustin6]

"the majority of people go in with 20 dollars in the hopes they'll come out millionaires"

Does this guy have any fucking clue whatsoever WTF?

[Zulaa81]

Is it in Melbourne hehe

[dailylifetube]

Same as smoking. They have all the "don't smoke" campains yet they sell it so they can make money out of poor addicts. Alcohol, gambling it's all dirty business.

[yahoovisitor]

In the western countries this has become a joke and the gamblers are now turning their move towards the east where due to lack of education and literacy its easy to fool a poor man and get funds released on the name of awards. Some say its the US President Bush and his allies who for want of funds against the war in east encourage the internet gamblers to commit this blunder. As USA is already destroyed as regard its economy and it maybe an indirect game of earning money for this purpose.

[Musicmanray]

The Gov doesnt care they get taxes from it but sure its ok those gamblers have the problem there dumb right? millions of dumb people in the world i guess, we have been raised for this addiction, Christmas presents on a holliday that was meant for celebrating Christ's birth? tooth fairys? birthday presents?all kinds of exciting gifts since we was children, we love the unknown! heck even fishing and hunting is the excitement of not knowing or it would be called catching and killing! Jesus can help

[onlinelate18]

People arent pre-programmed to love gambling, people are pre programmed to believe in jesus without question.

The Government in Australia never wanted to legalise gambling but couldnt stop people doing it illegally so they legalised it, taxed it and re-invest billions of dollars into the community because of it not to mention the jobs generated by it.

Gambling has been around since before money, and jesus. At least it benifits the wider community now.

[drmcfarty]

what!!!!!!!!!!!!

[llazy1]

the narration drowned out by the music.

[jagmeet7]

WARNING- "DONT GAMBLE"

[applesauceman]

@jagmeet7 lol, gtfo.

[exigentsky]

@jagmeet7 There's nothing wrong with gambling as long as you don't go overboard. Although, I've personally never gambled where I didn't think there was an edge. That's why the only game I play is poker. Every other game will eventually lead to long-term losses.

[sparkl1nwat3r]

Who is really the producer of this vid? Is it the fat man talking or the one acting? I'm confused. Nice vid by the way 5/5

[cortezngl]

most casino games are set up in the house favor-they have negative expectation..the longer you play the negative expectation game,the more certain you will loose..understand the value you get from gambling..put a price tag on it!!!

[sparkl1nwat3r]

Good advise - know your limits and seek help when it becomes too serious. Gambling will ruin your life and everything that you worked hard for. Don't do it.

[akbar7861]

I went in with some of my mates in bookies. they were playing roulette and wining. I went in again and again and I thought ill give it a go since then I kept gooing in there but loosing all my money. I respect everyone who has stoped gambling because I cant.

[LostAvatar79]

As an addicted gambler of 10 years I looking for help to stop. I turned compulsive. It's all I can think about. I'm well educated and understand the odds are against me, despite this something inside me has the urge to try my luck. I learned to walk away with a win, but I'm always back for more another day/week/month When I win I want to play more - this always ends up with me loosing... EVERYTIME 100%. I've monitored certain sites and conclude they are rigged in such a way it should be illegal.

[ukswoosh]

Try a GA meeting, bloke.

[sparkl1nwat3r]

I'm really sorry to hear this. You did try and I know how you must have gone through cos' my friend is in the same situation as you. I tried to help her but she pushes me off and now our friendship has ruined cos' of her addiction in gambling. Gambles are bad - it's bad for your health and it takes away all your money.

[stiven15]

i started gambling when i was 16, my first win was £18 pounds in a schratch card. afterwards i won £550 , and since i won that 500 i became addicted to gambling. But since January 2008 i have not gambled and you know what, i Can Afford nearly everything. i am not stressed, also i feel better. then If you are going to William hill or LADBROKES for the first Time, stop before you enter and dont bother and i guarantee you will have A Better succesfull life.

[member75994]

For how long is that Bonus Code valid? Just found the Bonus Code CASHRAIN on a website to use it at Ultimatebet com to get exclusive $1100 sign up Bonus. Is that code working somewhere else as well? If yes, for how long?

[lkcaudill]

I started out lightly. I'm on disability. I draw a small amount per month. I've lost $1100.00 in the past 3 days. I have no way of making this loss up. I'm praying it stops here.

[Markhowy]

One guy hit back at the casinos using predictive software that uses Newtonian Mechanics to overcome the house edge! He sells the software for £1000 including the worlds smallest hearing aid! Type this in you tube " How to beat roulette using a mobile phone!" this was also wittnessed by scientists and the Gaurdian Newspaper!

[Hopefl1]

Hey Sahfire. Gambling is not about the money. As a member of GA who just celebrated 10 years in October I know that is wasn't about the money. If anyone needs help, you can respond to this email and I would be happy to chat with you.

[bagel90210]

Hi, I have only a week in GA and the temptation to play blackjack still is overwheling, I still want to chase my losses and it dosent help I am bored out of my fucking mind at work

[Hopefl1]

If you ever need to talk to someone let me know. I have been in this for awhile now.

[lovelyshoes21]

If you could win it would NOT be there.

Look at the people who own Casinos and look at the losers who gamble.

IT IS PURE FUCKING GREED! Think about it if you could win EVERYONE would gamble.

I am an ex-compulsive gambler and have been gamble free for almost 9 years, So I do know what I am talking about. I lost EVERYTHING, One morning in March 2000 I decided I had had enough and quit. It has to be all or nothing, I wont even buy a lotto ticket now, Write your losses off and walk away!!!!

[dougiewhite778]

hi your comment made me laugh, i have the same problem with the slots. and being bored, Ive been to GA twice but didnt like it as you couldnt talk when you wanted too. Only ourselves can stop i guess.

[Sahfire]

Want to stop your addiction?

Find another business. It's the money you want.

[sparkl1nwat3r]

That is actually very clever. I think you may have the smart thinking but some people do not think like you. My friend is a gambler and she is hooked. Casino you win money easily without sweat while working is a hard way...and people find gambling the only solution to a quick and easy money but you also lose quickly too.

[jxl340]

If you want to take part in a big International web-based study on gambling, by Oxford University, google 'oxfordgamblingsurvey' for the link.

[satweavers]

Gambling is the pasttime of dullards. It's a voluntary tax on the gullable.

[missgj1]

The rules that the gaming commission want to inforce on William Hill have meant that they have moved the running of it to somewhere outside the UK so they don't want to. That's not what I call 'responsible gaming' on there part is it!

[missgj1]

Later that week there was something in the news about one of those game possibly being rigged but no more happened than that. I felt so sick! I thought, some games are scammed! I never done since.. I can see how easy it is to happen.'Get rich quick schemes' don't work the only person getting rich quick is William Hill + thank you for youtube so people can read this and learn from it!

[sparkl1nwat3r]

I strongly agree with you and sorry to hear about your loss. My friend loss almost everything and our friendship almost when into a big ruined cos of her addiction to gambling. YOUTUBE is the best - it helps people all over the globe come together to discuss such as this problem, although there are negatives but also postive one too. Who is William Hill?

[missgj1]

The person saying that they use hypnotics is right.. I read a book on it 'The Hidden Pursuaders' by Vance Packard.. it's used in most forms of advertising today. I have not bet before in my life until last month + I decided to have a go cos on tv I saw a guy who said he made a living at it. I thought ok, I tried + won £750 (great!) All based on research + next game bet more lost £750 then tried another lost again (total loss another £750)

[missgj1]

I hate it! I don't think that there is any such thing as 'responsible gaming' and I think that more laws should be inforced to stop there gamling companies exploting people and making it too easy to bet huge sums of money. What do you think of game results being impacted by dishonest refs etc. trying to effect the results of the game.. this was in the USA news and someone high up went to prison for it. The only people truly making money are William Hill.

[GenericGene]

Simply keep gambling as entertainment -

[banpokies1]

...Yep! Using your logic we should legalize heroin too! Poker machines especially are dangerous products, purpose-built to addict all NORMAL human beings, with their hypnotic and subliminal tricks that play havoc with normal intelligent human minds. If the majority of people could 'go in with 20 dollars and drive home' we would NOT have the miseries and problems that we have got now. Diabetes is 95% self-inflicted too...so are Diabetics irresponsible too!

[sparkl1nwat3r]

Hmm "chickmanin92" and "banpokies1" you two have very interesting logics...

[bzeliotis]

"They go in with $20 and hope to come out millionaires!..". Then problem is they are idiots!

YOU alone are responsible for your actions and no one else. Gambling means risk. Every time you make decide on future you take risk. Calculate it! NOTHING is guaranteed. Choose game with lowest casino edge, set winning goals less than 20% of bankroll loss limit 40% of bankroll. If addicted to adrenalin you are not gambling safely and have unrealistic expectations. Its your call!

[Alfabetto]

The addiction behind compulsive gambling is a dormant sickness residing in all of us. Gambling venues try (and many times succeed) to revert us to bicameral non-thinkers deep rooted in mystical beliefs of luck.

[skupernation]

@Alfabetto lol idiot

[geekgalvideo]

interesting!

[dufresnedesign]

I was a gambler for 16 years and became desperate to quit and I couldn't. One night I google searched "Jesus, stop me from gambling. Up came "Setting Captives Free" it is an online free, 60 day program in which Jesus sets you free from the sin of gambling if you are sincere and stay with it. I am free, and alive again, and Praising God. I pray you too find freedom from sin through Jesus Christ.

[issareign]

just kidding lol religion is wack, if u want to be set free have ur self banned from places

[issareign]

i was an addict, islam set me free however

[Grimpulsive]

if you know the odds when gambling, and you realize they're in your favour, there is a lot of money to make. i play poker all the time online and i do make small profit because i have a substantial edge in the games i play so i can beat the rake. You can absolutely earn your living at gambling, but if you get emotionally involved, thats a sign you're not being the smart gambler.

[freakoutlife]

I was a croupier in a casino and now i work in a bookies so i know more about gambling than most, heres the facts, you cant win unless its a controled win, it is addictive oh and i know no one mentioned it, but when a punter loses all his/her money, if that persons an asshole, we laugh, we laugh because they are stupid nieve and dont realise what they are doing their misserable lives (and it pays my wages ofcourse)

[sparkl1nwat3r]

True, I guess you can laugh but after all, it's nature for human to be born with addiction, who isn't? I'm sure there are people out who are addicted to chocolate, sex, etc, but it doesn't give out a fair reason why you should laugh. It's there problem if they lose everything but you should just butt out. Laughing displayed your cruelty and ill-mannered. Rather, you should give sympathy that the person become what s/he becomes.

Be kind the next time you see someone lose their money.

[sparkl1nwat3r]

You should be thankful that these people gives you the money that pays your wages. Without these people, you probably wouldn't have a job as a croupier at the casino.

Abolish gambling. It ruined people's lives.

[anthonyok]

GAMBLING is very addictive! cnts how dare u say its not it takes over have some respect cunta

[dac17018]

Does anyone know names of the songs that are played in this video??

[asdlfjkacoiajdsfoijs]

The guy says he doesnt know of anyone who retired playing at a casino. I do but they all count cards IOW they turn the tables on the casion, the odds are in their favor.

[asdlfjkacoiajdsfoijs]

The odds are against you how can you be so stupid to get addicted to this. It goes against logic to assume your going to win at a casino....

[SecondlifeCasinos]

Although a small percentage of people develop an addiction to gambling the vast majority responsibly enjoy their entertainment. Should we ban everything that causes the minority a problem or should we educate that minority so that the responsible majority may enjoy their pastimes? Gambling is not the problem here - Risk assesment is. All businesses gamble, it doesnt make them addicts. Nice vid btw :)

[TLAGT]

I gamble at pacific poker. It's fun!

[Custador]

One of my colleagues blew £300 at a casino last week, turned to me and said "It's you're fault, you're bad luck - you've cost me hundreds tonight". I didn't bother explaining the odds of Caribean Stud Poker to him....

[battleofsomme]

I find it funny when a guy/girl loses a ton of money. They get REALLY angry at first, then they go home, cool off, get drunk, bonk a bird and they forget.

Problem is they forget how they felt when they lose and keep going on the hope that they will make it back.

fools.

[Kopystef]

I gamble all the time and profit

[yuddda]

u are a complete iDIOT!!! why write stupid lies like that fk off!!!

[Christizm]

I am not fucking lying lost lots of money fag and its only cuz i had a few big wins like win 1,000 dollars then the next day lose 200.00 and so forth its very easy to lose so dont say im lying ass

[burkesworld]

[Christizm]

My life is heading this way im seeking help now please whoever watches this dont think that gambling is a way to make money it is not only a way to lose money
