    dumbass... you get on a hot streak like that you get over confident and hit that submit button easier and easier.... should have walked away for a week or 2.

    After taking $400 up to just about 7x that is an incredible run.

    Next time take your cell phone and give it to anyone you trust that will keep it over the weekend. Hand over your laptop to the same person. Start drinking heavily until you pass put.

    Just do not bet on anything. Why fukkkkkin bother at that point, you have nothing left to prove

    sounds like the old "numbers on a screen" trap that many of us fall into.

    No one should bust op's balls. If you think that you only gamble for the money, get real with yourself. I feel bad that you lost but that streak will forever live in infamy. You could get Alzheimer's and not recognize your own reflection, but you won't forget this week.

    dude just think the positive side that you had only actually lost 400 and not that 26k. That 26k is a mere screen numbers that you didnt actually had possession with. Also, if u have missed work due to this its time to change approach on gambling and think that it should just be hobby and you wont be a millionaire betting on it.

    I would suggest take some time off from gambling, reevaluate if this is for you.

    if it is for you, remember how you feel and learn from your mistakes.

    Many years ago, I was at the Crystal Palace casino for a week long golfing/gambling trip in Nassau, Bahamas. As soon as I walked into the casino I hit the blackjack tables and went up $10,000 in my first 30 minutes of play without even checking into my hotel room. I cashed out, got settled in my room and reserved a tee time a couple of hours later with a buddy. Well, stupid me, I go back down and went at it again. My buddy came by and said for us to go to golf but I blew him off and said to give me just another half hour. Well that was the most expensive tee time I've ever missed. I proceeded to lose the $10k and came out of my pocket another $18k all in about a couple of hours.

    I was sick, I'm talking physically ill. I went up to the room and slept for about a day and a half. I went to the beach and just chilled every day in a lounge chair in about waist high of water. For days, I didn't feel like eating, drinking, fishing, golf, etc. Well towards the end of the week I said "what the hell", I'm going to go at it one more time. I took $300 and grinded my $18k back in about 8 hours. I then went up about $6,000. Do you know what happened next? I proceeded to give the $6,000 back and ended up even for the trip. True story.

    Talk about ridiculous rollercoaster streaks. I was kicking myself on the plane ride home for giving it all back like an idiot. The addiction rush is real and cruel... I learned that week that I am more excited about the rush then the actual winning or losing. That's scary...

    We've all been there -- maybe not to this extent, but the highs, lows and everything in between of a massive rollercoaster ride. Take care pal.

    All I can say is there's a reason it's so easy to deposit in an instant, yet you have to go through the ringer to withdraw from these books.

    Anyone who supposedly runs $400 into 26k in a day or 2, is def the kind of degenerate to blow it in that amount of time as well. Not a shock.

    Had a few of these mistakes my first few years in gambling. Sometimes you just get caught up in the moment. Weird how that works. Feel sorry for you bro.
