the stupidest thing I have done with my bank is to lose it in 24 hours in the machines without taking advantage of or taking into account all the sacrifice and hours of play to get the money that then as if it was worthless to lose it without measure ..

Once I lost my entire bankroll at the casino while playing in Dream Catcher.
Since then, I have done no more such mistakes.

Mine was drawn out over several weeks when I felt as though I had fallen into the twilight zone. I would be crushing a pot, getting excellent value and get rivered. I trust math. I don't believe in luck, good or bad, but it, apparently, believes in me. At least, the bad side. This went on with me thinking probabilities will rule and things would normalize. What a fool. Bankroll just kept steadily dropping and dropping like a slow-motion train wreck. When I had only $1100 left I stopped and went cold turkey. I tried getting back in every week or two but to no avail. I stopped for several weeks until I stopped getting a sour taste in my brain when I thought about jumping back in. Eventually it went back to "normal".

Building a bankroll from 50$ to 2000$ in 4 nights (3-4 hours of playing per night) via high stakes zoom (rush-because was full tilt poker site) poker and losing everything in 5th night in like 2 hours. A bad move.

With $ 800 I went to play $ 300 heads-up. Like I must admit that I got that number with only $ 20 playing 2 whole days of heads-up being aggressive with the bankroll (and with many hours).

Once in my life, I somehow succumbed and opened a casino.
It was the stupidest thing.

Thought it would be a good idea to hit that casino tab and play a few hands of black jack. I quickly learned that tilting doesn't only occur in Poker.

So far the most stupid thing I’ve done is lose my $90 bankroll in about 30 mins on $10 spin and go’s.

really stupid, with 105 dollars, the maximum you can afford to play back for 1 dollar, if you stick to the back-management
