RE: UFC 202 McGregor Vs. Diaz Rematch And Why You Should Watch It
Yes I actually lost about $40K (a lot for me, but was my fault) on an online site and the correspondences I after a few years with the company were quite enlightening. I found a glitch in an online blackjack game on 5dimes and that turned the odds in my favor, but like most unprofessional gamblers, instead of cashing out I found a way to up my betting and lose it all. I follow you, because I enjoy your gambling stories and find them fascinating.
I personally cannot control gambling myself, so I have stayed away from online sites, but may do a small amount for fun to make a few of the more boring Monday Night Football matchups a little more interesting.
Sorry to hear that. In your defense, had I found a glitch in an online blackjack game that turned the odds in my favor I would have a hard time not pressing my edge. My rationale for withdrawing winnings rather than upping my betting would mainly be with the site possibly not paying out due to the glitch and wanting to cash out winnings before they froze and confiscated them. Now that I reread your post, it's actually a bit unclear, did you go on a bad run and lose or did 5dimes confiscate your money?
I lost a lot after Full Tilt was insolvent. And some other random poker sites that never paid out.
