Hi, welcome back to Bitcointalk good to know that you move on and forgotten about the suicide well I hope you realize that there is still life after what happened to your account on Stake, Covid is manageable now you can back to work or you are working now, you can now provide for your family forget about gambling for now because you are gambling within your means, it's not good for someone like you who has a tendency to commit suicide.
You've misread him IMO, he didn't tell he stopped gambling, he said the casino has still not paid his winnings neither give him back his own deposited funds till now. Fortunately decentralized sportsbooks without KYC and funds custody are growing fast, and will compete with those dishonest sportsbooks very soon IMO, because nobody likes being likely to be scammed once he manages to win risky bets. And even if scammed customers find a safe place to bet I don't think they will forget their stolen funds, so it's also a risky game for scammers.
