Ever found yourself in a situation where it's like you are winning a bet, and the casino offered you a cashout that is more than x5 the amount of money you had put in the game, but you happily turned it down, believing you will definitely win the bet and get the maximum potential winning.
Only for you to logoff from the casino for a couple of hours, coming back later to check the game, you discover you had lost the bet..

Same situation I found myself yesterday night..

I betted 50,000 Shiba inu on the above parley to win over 3, 349,000 Shiba inu, the game was going on nicely and stake offered me a cashout of over 700,000 Shiba inu, i thought of taking the offer but later refused believing I have a good chance of winning the maximum amount of money, but coming back later to check the game, i discovered I lost the bet, this made me feel very bad, up till now, I still wish I had taken the cash out that was offered me.

Ever been in the same situation before? What's your experience like?


These are the regrets that every gambler will face and are inevitable really. People are great at overestimating their ability to judge odds correctly and too often let their emotions get the better of them, especially when it comes to pulling out of a bet. Bookmakers use massive data analysis and automated systems to price their odds, with a sprinkling of staff interaction to tweak things around the edges - they are not bothered about mispricing the occasional thing if they are hitting 90 out of a 100 odds done correctly. The only time that bookmakers might suffer is when the high rollers come in and drop hundreds of thousands, or even millions, because that can really give them a little bit of pain on one game if it goes wrong.
