Well, the part "Unless a kind person was to give me the money to claim the wager" can be understood that way.
While you are right - we are in gambling section and not in lending - I would not be surprised if some fellow gambler is "interested" in taking the risk, and it would not be advised since it can end bad for both of you (money is a sensitive thing, especially when something goes wrong).

So point was only to help - both you and any potential gambler-lender - in getting things right.

You don't have to apologize. Language is an imperfect way to transmit information. My advice is to not accept any help here. As other said discuss with the support there about what you need to do to get to withdraw those funds, research to make 100% sure it's not a scam site, and if it's indeed a prize there to grab easily, get a loan and grab it. Good luck!
