PlayerX47,

Can I ask if you contacted SportsBet.io after you lost 1, 2, 3 BTC or how exactly did it happen?
How quickly did you lose 20 BTC? was it in 1 day, 1 week?

Did you contact SportsBet.io at any point after losing a bit more - and have they told you anything if you did?

The most important key factor that could side by you (legally) is if you have some conversation between SportsBet.io - if they told you "Keep on gambling for another 24 hours and then let us know your '''final''' decision" then they can be held liable"....

But if you had 0 contact with them and only contacting them after you lost your Bitcoin it might be more difficult to prove damages here unless if you had any similarities between the new and old account?

With my case with another provider - I asked to be self-excluded and they closed the account, and then sent me emails asking me if I want to reopen it - I used it against them and won $7000 - but that was the very SAME account, I did not try nor attempted to open a 2nd account.

As others have mentioned besides pursuing (or not) the matter legally - and besides the self-exclusion tips I gave you in the beginning of the thread - you really should be looking to do something with this - honestly losing over $220,000 is terrible .. If I were you I'd seriously consider handing over your finances to someone else (e.g. spouse/wife if you have one or parents or brother/sister whatever).

If I were you before starting any treatment or whatever - the first best treatment for you is to simply not touch any cash ... salaries, bonuses, whatever you earn - get someone else to hold this money for you, you're not capable of handling over cash yourself, and I'm saying it for your own benefit - get at least 1-2 years of letting someone else handling your finances - you are not in a position to be dealing with cash right now.
