Evidence1000:
Hello everyone. I remember opening a thread sometime in August 2020 about my addiction to sports betting and how it has finished me totally


https://www.nairaland.com/5996073/need-bet9ja-finished-life

The link is above.

I got so many comments and messages; both positive and negative. Some even messaged me privately with promises to follow my matter up. I discovered that the power to stop betting laid solely in my hands and I took action.

I sincerely want to thank everyone for their advice and suggestions. To the glory of God, I've overcome that addiction and I no longer play sports virtual betting anymore. There have been significant changes in my life.

I have also been able to offset my debts totally. The peace of mind I have these days cannot be explained. I remember I made mention of the face that I owed a particularll guy over a hundred thousand naira; I have been able to pay that debt wholly. I am at peace now with myself and my environment.

I have looked back and that is why I have decided to share my story and how I overcame this addiction.

I want to encourage as many as are passing through the same challenge. You will definitely overcome it as you follow my story.

The mods should please helpe push to front page as this will help a lot of people who are struggling at the moment.
I have not play that game for the past 4months. Although I am still paying my debt. But now I have plans for my life. I don't use to empty my pocket or bank account anymore. I started saving little little money for the past 2 months now.
I wished federal govt can ban virtual game
It has damaged many youths

If you analyze this post closely you will discover two important details...

One is the selective use of colloquial abstract representation of normative words owing to the distinction in regulatory and derogatory affirmative relations to binary sentences

The second is, okay make l no lie give u, l no know wetin l said above

Omo, na you know bro
virtual betting on phones has codes.. you don't stake anyhow.. you wait for some particular codes to pop up then stake.. I can tell you number of times have actually won 8k with just 100naira. I know my limits and when I start losing I log out immediately.. they understood most of us are greedy and that's why many keep lossin.

Virtual

You do know that virtual is computerized (programed) gaming? There is no way you can beat a computer program unless it allow you to do so.

Those still playing virtual are ignorant.

Even though I did this betting stuff before, it was never an addiction to me.

Sometimes at a point I would always want to bet on some games, after booking it with my phone, I won't still play it.

I don't really have this enthusiasm to play it, the very last thing I do again is discarding the idea of playing it.

When people talk about bet addiction, it always marvel me.

I can't forget the advice one of my uncles gave me, he was an addicted pool player. He told me never in my life try to play anything gambling, that it was what ruined his life when he was much younger. This is a man that can used the money for his medications to play coupon. With all his chains of business, when he was in his early 40s, he died without a single plot of land.

The worst addictions to overcome ever are
1. Masturbation
2. Betting / gambling
3. Drug
4. Smoking/drinking
5. Womanizing ..


If you are able to overcome any of the above expecially the first 3, there’s nothing in this world that can bring you down ..









I used to bet around 2016-2018, I think I stopped February 2019..
Omo any small money like this , na to stake o,
Infact, It got to a point whereby I stick to 2odds,
I’ fit win in 3 roll then enter loosing streak for one month straight ….,
Betting is very bad that you will always see people who don’t bet as mumu , ironically you’re the mumu , living on false hope that you’ll turn dangote overnight ..

The secret to conquering these bad habits is, NEVER START

Gambling/betting is something I will always thank God for not letting me get into. I can’t stress enough how much I hate losing money.

[b]Little by little, I began to play constantly. Before I knew it, I was playing almost everyday. I played virtual till I left secondary school. I was able to fund my games then through the little money I stole from my parents and most times if they sent me on errands, I did not remit the change. I won't forget to mention that I starved myself several times in secondary school all because I wanted to use my lunch money to play virtual.

It was becoming a cancer in my life but I failed to realise it.
The first day I won 10,000 naira, it was as if heaven came down that day. I had just finished from secondary school then in 2012 and was seeking for admission into the University. To say that I was happy is an understatement. I bought "heaven and earth" on that day. The total sum I spent was about 4,000 naira and I saved the rest for betting the following day.


As expected, on the following day, after I woke up in the morning, I didn't even brush or take my bath; I ran to the bet shop to play virtual games. In a matter of minutes, I lost the remaining 6,000 naira and even incurred debts of about 3,000 naira. I failed to mention that when I won the 10,000 naira, people were all over me and called me their friend and brother but on the following day when I lost, all those people deserted me. I begged for money from those same people to pay my 'gbese' of 3k but everyone of them 'shenked' me. In the end, I had to forfeit my phone as there was no way for me to get such amount of money at that moment.

I went home feeling so down and dejected and swore to myself that I won't play virtual betting again. I didn't know that I was just deceiving myself. As a matter of fact, I can say that was the beginning of me going a level higher in playing virtual betting.[/b]
