I've often posted logs of silly martingale sequences in the past, marvelling at how anyone could be so foolish as to keep doubling their bet over and over.  I never before experienced it first hand - until now.

I was physically shaking as I entered the last couple of bets.  I've never before bet over $600 on the roll of a dice.  I got lucky, and really think I ought to retire from this game now.  It's quite a buzz, but too dangerous for my liking:

Same thing happened with me.
I was shaking and sweating like crazy.

Unfortunately, I never won.

I never played again any kind of game that I can, and will, lose a whole bunch of money.

This time it wasn't that much money, but it was enough to teach me a lesson.
I just started too and it is such an amazing thrill. I think I've only reached a 40 BTC bet at one point though.
The worst part is that I can't stop now because I'm still ahead.
