Suicide isn't the best option, but I guess he wasn't left with many to choose from. These are the many reasons why as a gambler, you should be able to minimize your own risk and gamble with money you can afford to loss. Don't borrow money to gamble and there's no guarantee that you will make a win. The mistake a lot of these Gamblers keeps making is to think that they can actually make money from gambling and settle their problems. Gambling is all about being lucky and the guy in this case wasn't.
Suicide is not an option but form of despair and loss of enthusiasm for life because he does not want to bear all the burdens of the loan that has been taken, if he has savings or has valuables that can be sold, he will definitely not feel desperate after losing the money from the loan.
Moreover, in the incident that has occurred, it is mentioned that he is someone with poor life, having little money to gamble and hoping to be rich is real mistake, everyone with lower middle economy definitely wants to be able to improve their finances and economy but taking shortcut decision to gamble is an action that is not worth doing.
