rukz: They don't know. They think it's luck. As a computer program, If I sit such a person down and programmatically explain virtual gaming to them (by example). They will run away from it. There is no addiction to virtual (according to me), what we have are people who think they know the system and can beat it (by luck or experience). |

Gabbriell:Am refering to those who are aware but still find it difficult to quit. people like ''childofdoom" who has been into it since 2015. |

rukz: Sorry I mixed your quote with that of another person. What I can tell you is that I have been opportuned to meet people like OP in about four to five situations. I explained how virtual works. I went further to create a simple game that simulate virtual. I gave them the admin control to tweak the outcome. Long story short, they thanked me and never played virtual again (according to them). Addiction is real I understand that. But when it comes to virtual, I believe it is ignorance that is manifesting in people. |

This was how betting became a cancer in my life. I began to stake with the hope of getting big returns in seconds. In my church, I was the treasurer of the youth department which gave me access to the departmental funds. I used the funds from the youth department to play virtual games with the hope of winning and replacing them back. I was just digging a big hole for myself and incurring debts upon debts. I remember a particular youth week where we were to contribute money for a particular project for the church. As the treasurer, I was the one in charge of the funds which ran into over one hundred and fifty thousand naira. I spent the whole money at a sitting, playing virtual betting. The issue got out of hand and that was how my parents discovered that I was a serial gambler. I lost the trust my parents had for me though they ended up paying up that money with me promising that I'd never gamble again. I made that promise but went back after a week. There was a certain time I won 963,000 naira correct score. I will never forget. I was literally a mad person that day. There was nobody that I did not give money on that day. As at the very next day after winning, I had just a little over 100,000 naira in my account. If you ask me what I used the money for, I cannot explain till date. The 100k plus was spent in bet9ja shop the next day with the hope of winning more. I lost it all and even ran into debt again which I couldn't pay. This time around, I had to forfeit my laptop. Fast forward to my university days. This was when I had the worst experiences in my life which almost killed me. 1 Like |

I gained admission into one of the prestigious universities in the South Western part of Nigeria. I was a very happy guy when I got that admission. But I never knew that the worst was waiting for me in my gambling life. When I gained the admission, I was trying to stop my gambling habit but along the line, I met a 'friend'. I will call him Segun. Segun was not my friend per se but circumstances brought us together. He was about 10 years older than me and a married man as well with a child. Segun had a bet shop and I used to play games there. What even made us closer was the Covid-19 period during the lock down. I refused to travel home during that early Covid lock down in 2020 and stayed back at school. As I'm writing this story, I'm filled with regrets because I should have traveled home that period had I known. Segun had accommodation issues during that time and asked to stay with me for a while which I accepted. Overtime, we became very close friends and he told me a lot about betting and how it works. He even taught me how to stake higher. For example, if I play all board over 4.5 goals and play it "3 to come", I will stake 2,400 and have the possibility of winning higher. This is in contrast with the normal "2 to come" that I will stake with 900 naira. Gamblers will understand what I'm saying 100% I never knew that all what he was doing was to work on my mind so that I will patronise him that period as there was a total lock down and shops were not allowed to open. I was the only customer he had then as we used to play it right there in my room. In my first two days, I played games worth 80,000 naira and lost. I can't forget. It was like a film trick to me. Segun didn't complain and I foolishly went ahead and continued to play on while damning the consequences. My mind was just focused on winning and I never won any substantial money. This was how I played until I ran into debts of over 400,000 naira in the hands of Segun. Then my sleepless nights and worries began. 1 Like |

Goalnaldo:back then when I was gambling heavily I experience similar thing, it even affected my work because I was into phone fixing. even to eat with spoon properly becomes a problem it was when I reduce staking heavily that it disappear on its own. I believe its as a result of anxiety and stress. when I did series of test they said I had tremor not knowing that gambling caused it. Quit gambling and see what happens. 2 Likes 1 Share |
