RIP to his soul.

<sup>[/sup]What exactly happened?

Did he win but lost his slip?

Did he play but failed to win?

Did he win and didn't misplace his slip but the bet company refused to give him the money?

[sup]</sup>Be specific. What should the government regulate about betting? If you are talking about regulating how much time and how much money an adult (18+) should spend on betting, you are not making any sense. I have never tried betting or any form of gambling. But the truth remains that betting is like consuming food or alcohol. You can't tell an alcohol company or a food vendor to regulate the quantity or amount sold to adults. Betting is within the freedom and choices adults have. If you are talking about preventing those below the age of consent from betting and ensuring that bet companies pay bet winners, you have a valid point.

Bet nearly killed me. I lost about 1.8 million on one Sunday.

Immediately I lost, [b]I felt like I wasn't seeing anyone.

Although, I started the bet with 100k to win 300k, 300k to win 600k, 600k to win 1.8M. The last one was 3 odds. After that, I played over 1.5, three games to win 2.8M with 1.8M

Omo, the game casted.

I was just wishing to die. I felt like everybody in the world is richer than me.

I had to use another 200k from my savings to win 2 odds, which brought 400k.

That was still on that Sunday. I later realized I used 100k to rise to 1.8M and lost.

I used 200k to win 400k

That means I gained 100k extra in total.

Used 300k total, and won 400k total, so 100k was my gain.

After I realized that, I stopped panicking. I went to one joint and ordered Nkwobi and Beer.

After that, I went to a boutique near me and bought two tops and jeans.

After that day, I deleted my bet app, timed my sporty bet account out till 2026.

My peace of mind matters to me.

They like news like this so they can attack betting. Why not tell government to ban or regulate cars...lol afterall ppl die daily from accident. A man decided to be foolish and instead of blaming his foolishness they choose to attack gambling if I may ask what is the difference between gambling and forex trading and buying stock? I don't even believe all this useless stories sometimes. I have 1 million and yet I had to borrow to join to bet. This is most likely another fake news propagated by bet haters.

Had it been they don't lie about being billionaires. Help for quick reach this guy. What a sad end

Obakoolex:
No one should shame the dead, he's gone and judgement is between him and his creator.

But we still living souls should know that sucide is a cowardly act and a shameful thing to bear by those left behind and most especially oneself after demise.

If you're having a suscidal thought better do something crazy like Waka from Lagos to Kano. Your head go reset before you reach half way

Fearyourcreator:

You wicked ooo .. respect the dead na

SayNo2SmallPrik:

I think the government should force this useless bookies to introduce one cut, two cut on betting slips

How'll you stake almost 35 matches and just one or two match will cut it, so unfair

Sportybet one cut policy is a very stupid One

Mrpojj:

You don't have 100 million in your account, and you are using over 1 million naira to bet a game
See mind.
So me wey dey use 100 naira dey bet , I no get sense?
