Wow, taking big hits to my investment from some lucky high-roller. Let's hope his luck runs out before my bankroll does, haha.
Edit: God damn it, this always happens to me. I divest all when I see my investment plummeting and as soon as I divest, the investor profit goes almost all the way back to where it was. Lost 10 days worth of investment in 10 minutes.

You're doing it wrong. Why would you divest right after taking a loss? The guy you lost to is likely to keep playing, and likely to lose his winnings if he does.
As an investor you want high volume.
(Note: I also do it wrong, because I too get scared by big bets).
Yeah I realise that now but in the moment you're just thinking "oh shit, what if this guy just keeps winning?". Logic goes out the window when you're dealing with potentially large losses.
Welcome to bankroll investing. And yes, it's a risk either way. Always keep in mind the JD Nakowa situation,
.Not my day today. Decided that it would be a good idea to "win back" my investment losses. Yeah, about that - lmao.
Ouch! At least you won that 0.2, if that makes you feel any better, lol.
Score! I lost it straight away though haha. After I won that .2 I was like "one more win and ill stop". Shit's harsh, man. With 8BTC invested I wonder how long it'll take to get back to 10BTC and recover my idiotic loss. Like 6 months? You win some and you lose some I guess.
I'm sorry for your loss but also am happy to see you were able to stop betting before doing bigger damages to yiyur bankroll.
It's not easy at all: happens you feel the urge to recover your losses as soon as possible and it could seem so easy just to double your previous bet and click again.
So, again, happy you did the right, difficult, move to stop betting.
