Lessons.

Look for a girlfriend that is responsible..who will spend time with you and try to take it off your mind.. (bae was instrumental in helping me drip this habbit.. always nagging.. insulting and threatening me lol)

Leave where you are right now go somewhere far..where there is no virtual shops there... for example.. up north.. there are only few betshops ..due to strict sharia laws and stigma attached to it...

Pls find something to do.. you can volunteer in an organisation or look for a job that will always demand your presence.. something to keep you occupied.. just something.

Talk to the person you respect most it maybe your uncle..pastor or imam.  Just someone you 're afraid of and value their thoughts towards you.

Prayers doesn't change this habit guy.. just do something with your time.. something that won't give you the freedom of leaving for 20 minutes during the day

Give your most trusted person any money or fund that comes your way..(bae became in control of my finances then.. I couldn't spend a dime without her knowing.. the money was with her.. there was no way I could ask for money to bet.




Quick question guys..

Is it possible for me to finalize my education after 5years of leaving school i wanna go back to complete my last semester in two years time..
In advance countries.. you can come back after 10 years to complete it.. don't know about here..

I am about to start an online degree.. but it is really expensive and I am just sceptical.


My brother than you, is it possible for one to loose up to 5m in bet9ja? l have a brother who l knnow plays bet9ja. This boy is owingg every of our relation. 400k, 6000k 40k, we keep seeing people coming to report how much he owes them. He has refused to tell us what he is using the money for. He does not buy clothes, you cant see any good thing he wears.

He is always looking depressed. We know he plays bet9Ja but l know people play it with N100. Anywhere you hide money he will see it. What do we do?

Its possible...give them a good condition that made you run away from sch with evidence and be ready to pay the fees associated therewith...

Your records are still there.. Just go to the registrar's office,not dept(Dept will frustrate you the more),tell the registrar because he is responsible to direct you to your dept after hearing your genuine case.

How old is he.
Is he married
Educated
Does he have a job

Cos different methods apply to different people.
No matter what one can break an addiction
Re: My Experience Playing Virtual. How I Broke The Addiction by stagger: 1:29pm On Jul 08, 2018
Sports betting is not for the faint hearted. I use maximum of N6,000 in a month for it, which is less than what I use to fuel my car in 4 days of continuous driving. In other words, I actually pay more for DSTV and Internet airtime than I spend on sports betting. As it is, I have not placed a single bet on the World Cup after the group stages. I do not take unnecessary chances. Due to my compounding chart which I use, I never try to win millions with N100 or N200. It is a recipe for disaster.

Run away from accumulator bets and run away from virtuals. VIRTUALS ARE THE EQUIVALENT OF MATCH-FIXED REAL-LIFE GAMES. When the referee, officials and certain players have been paid off the way Juventus used to do it in the 90s and 2000s, you can never win no matter what. That is how virtuals are.

Thank God I never dabbled into these things in my younger years. I only started when I had reached a stage where I can control my emotions on several matters.

Nice story, Any form of Addiction is not good

I still don't know how people get addicted to gabbling tho, but then I am addicted to sugar and most people also find that silly

I think the major difference between you and guy on front page is the suffering and pain you went through after you made the mistake.

The guy on the front page will not heal as long as his parents are always there to provide support and love
whenever he screws up.

It is like giving money to a drug addict

He must learn to be a Man first



About your question, Please clarify your last statement.
my friend told me he plays virtual for fun!!! And he never win!! So tell me what kind of fun is that!! Virtual is bad!! If u c where people are begging #50 in d bet house u'll pity them

I swore in my life not to try virtual games

I play bet but since World Cup started I only played trice

100# each n lost
sometimes i wonder why people play virtual.am a very big fan of betting,.but i dont dere virtual..imagine people placing bet on weting dey programed by the betting company..i dont know if people dont see it that way..i play normal bet every weekend wen the league is on..i started playing bet from 100lv in university but never for once used my important money...when u know your limit,you should be able to beat some certain things in life..even the Dangote.,adenuga and the otedola dey place bet on some certain matches..the difference is that they know the basic rule of gambling...99% OUT OF EVERY 100% BET PLACED ARE LOST,YOU NEED TO BE VERY WISE AND INTELLIGENT TO KNOW CERTAIN POSSIBILITIES OF WHAT YOU ARE BETTING ON..
NOTE;:
Virtual is gat no secret..its programed by the bet company..

Aja sare owo jona. Thank God for your life. Go back to your school and complete your studies, but be ready for insults from all those teaching and non-teaching staff. Nothing pays in Gambling. I could remembered when Play Station 1 was popular, I was so addicted to it that I do play on credit (but never stole anyone's money). I can use all my money to play it, even gambled with guys, thank God for my parents and my lesson teachers, they monitored my life.

Was with bae for two years and things got better thou..
With help from my crazy parents.. bae and  my will, I was able to get over it... after a long time...
But I dropped out of the university with just a semester remaining.. and lost really good friends..


 Within less than two years of stopping virtual, things have gotten better.. my only regret is that I have lost time and I can't recoup it..

I now have a school in a small village up north where I teach (Hausa kids) pro bono (free) I also have 4 other staff members.. i now have an international partner/mentor who believes in me.. and we 're cooking up something. Not quite long.. I won a 1 million naira entrepreneurship competition...(I have once applied for this competition nd failed). I will be 24 soon and I am so grateful.




thank you for this bro. Right now I am reading a website somebody shared to me. When I am done, I will come back and read your whole story and how you came out stronger and better. I feel so hopeful and determined knowing that people have passed through the same problem and came out stronger. God bless you for this encouraging post

I had to go to the rig where it was Impossible to play bet9ja because betting sites were disabled on the rig WiFi and I stayed on that rig (offshore) for 42 days. That was how the spirit of bet9ja left me for good. I lost over 200k in 2 months while still addicted to it but my job saved me from the bondage. Praiiiiz Master Jesus... grin grin. I can't advise anyone who easily gets addicted to stuffs to enta gambling, its worse than womanizing I swear.

@Poster, you can go back to complete it depends on the the number of year your course of study is. Art is 4 years, engineering is 5 years.

All these bettings, virtual, mmm and all all the likes are evil.

A friend started with mmm, when it packed up she started others. She persuaded and did all sorts i said no way am not doing any.

She closed her shop self, she almost resigned cos she was getting so much from gambling.

Now, she is bankrupt, she is to pay over N10M due to fraud. EFCC napped her, her account was used for fraudulent transfer.

In the end, they all dont pay.

My local people will say, money you dont use ypur blood to work for will never stay and has no blessing in it.

Young man, i thank God you have a good friend who God used to help you out.

Wow. That's touching. Please can you mention that other guy whose story was posted this morning. Hopefully he'll learn from your story.

As for going back to school to continue, why don't you go to your department and ask or go to student affairs in your school and make enquiries. Schools have different policies concerning that. Find out what your school's policy on that is.

All the best.

Try and save your brother's life o.

You don't want to wake up one day to see him hanging from the ceiling, because that is what depression does.

If he's someone you can manhandle make sure you monitor his life. He didn't leave home unless he is escorted by someone.

He only needs to be away for some months and I think he'll feel the addiction less.

Avoid virtual because you can never win. Avoid the game totally because you'd always lose. Liberate yourselves from that slavery. I was an insider and you can never win. Read the below article for your own good.

You mean cryptocurrency is a sham?


It's not a sham. It's a speculation on the future. The problem is, a lot of people invest in cryptocurrencies expecting the stability of a real world business that provides goods and services to customers. But, it's not a business, it's a speculation. You can lose everything or make 100x your investment.

A lot has happened with this virtual game
People who plays virtual games are the greedy ones.
Who thinks they can make a shortcuts to wealth.
Virtual games are controlled by already programmed computers.
No matter how fast you can be, you are always going to get your very own Greek-gift.
You play once, maybe you win, you'll be like "wow", what an easy way to make money.
Not knowing that you have offered yourself sense to spiritual stupidity.
Do you think that the guys that programmed these things are fools or don't like money?
Hell no!
I was with my friend the other day who operates a shop.
There's this boy that was playing virtual.
For the past 4 hours, he had wasted 35k without a single win.
I callled him over to advise him, but he told me that the money actually belongs to his "oga" '
That he had sent him to withdrew the money for him.
You can imagine the nonsense.
Another one almost used his entire sister's school fees that he was asked to deposited for her.

Please like popular saying, every wise gambler knows when to stop.
The moment you can no longer control yourself over this, it's now plain stupid.
Say no to gambling and most especially virtual games!!!
