I don't have any story to tell but based on my knowledge gambling most of the brings you loss instead profits.
I agree with you , i am one of the victim of it , i have gambled more than 50+
BTC in my life , since 2013 and the total profit is obvious loss so i had a loss of net 50+ btc and plus my precious time.
I recommend to give much importance to time than Bitcoins.
leave gambling and be safe.That's a funny thing to say considering that you earn from gambling.
Or ever asked yourself where the money for your signature campaign comes from...
