Mopey, down and depressed voice
"C'mon guyz I'm due a big win on the next spin, please someone let me hold ten dollars"

*Donation soundeffect

"Yoooooooo! Letzgo thankyousomuch Tardenabler69, promise I'll pay you back as soon as I can!"

"Come on baby, put it all on red, letzfuckingo!!!"

Roulette ball lands on black

"Fuck this I hate my life, this fuckin sucks, streams over everyone, see you tomorrow"

Even though I've seen the same ending three hundred times at this point. It still makes me laugh as much as the first time I saw it.

I need to seek treatment for my crippling addiction to watching this guy be cripplingly addicted.

Is everyone who played OSRS in the past destined to be an gambling addict?

A lot of people who stake are players with maxed out stats that have pretty much done everything available (or players who are no longer gratified by the "grind") but they are still too addicted to the game to quit it.

It also doesn't help that staking can net you absurd amounts of money in an instant compared to the long grind of PvM content. A lot gamblers in the game don't really play the game per-se, the game becomes a medium in which they gamble. A lot of them even spend time just begging viewers for money so they can go back to gamble instead of playing the game because they know it's way faster.

For example, it's only 8 million gold (currently) to buy a Bond that extends your membership for 14 days. Some of the drops on the game are absurdely expensive to the point that one good drop is pretty much going to cover the cost of your membership for years.

There is not really much else to do with the money (at that point) and staking does (or did) provide that rush back of seeing the game money go up. Lots of players also sell their gold for IRL cash. Being a gambler and/or a real world trader is pretty much the endgame for those who can't quit the game.

On a related note, anyone notice how slow these stake games are ? The dealers deal the cards so slowly. Is this an attempt to keep people on the site longer and increase their engagement ?

my suspicion is that the "dealers" are just retards for hire and not actual casino dealers, as proper dealers are slick.

Does anyone know if Kick gives out free tips/donation points/whatever like Twitch does sometimes? I won't send him a single cent that I worked for, but if I can run an ad or something for Kickbux to see him get that seratonin spike & subsequent crash I'd like to participate.

 

[Spunt]

There have always been gambling addicts, but what's so fucking dystopian about this is that he's doing it live on the Internet, and retards are fucking paying him to do it.

Gambling addiction used to be a very private hell, but now for anyone with a webcam it can be a very public hell instead. Next on Kick, pay to watch junkies shoot up or pay some retard to smoke DMT.

Oh God that's probably already happening somewhere isn't it?

 

[Lost in Place420]

I've been watching this guy for a few months and it goes like this
>Gets $60 from somewhere
>Gambles it all away in about an hour
>Smokes and stares at the screen.
>Rage ban someone
>"Welp guys thats all see you later"
>Cries in discord about how much he hates his life.
I have lost about 5 accounts trying to just even talk to him. Pisses his pants if you don't say anything good about him.

Since when are gambling streams became so popular? Fuck I must have missed that stage of the civilisation's descend to hell.

I think it was circa 2019, when it became a lot easier to swap fiat for crypto on exchanges like Coinbase, and crypto for crypto on exchanges like Uniswap. There was a big proliferation of crypto casinos then, with bullshit "games" that were glorified coin tosses.

It is to give them a random chance of getting a reward.

This thread has brought back unpleasant memories I have of a particular ex who would farm gold in Runescape on my PC using click-bots while I was at work and asked me to pray for him to win the Powerball. This same guy would trade penny stocks on Robinhood and get upset when he lost money doing that, too. His whole family was like that, everyone spending money they didn't have on lotto tickets and going into debt to buy pots and pans. I was kind of astonished to know a whole family of Jews so *bad* at managing their money. I thought they had some protective sense about this stuff.

The way the cards get to the dealer is weird as fuck as well. You see some other dealer coming up to the table, take away a plastic container with the cards in it, and putting a new one on the desk of the dealer, apparently pre-shuffled.

I haven't been in a casino for a while, but that's so weird. What's wrong with shuffling the cards live on screen so that you take away all doubts the games might be rigged?

People like Austin_07 like this are just the next stage of car crash TV that people have watched in the past, now the monetized schadenfreude is live and uncut. At the same time it's not like he was forced to live stream himself gambling, that was a voluntary decision. The enabling by the amused viewers that keep giving him money they most likely know he will spend away within minutes not so much.

Lost it all and destroyed his computer screen.

It is the absolute damnedest thing watching somebody smash their monitor and then sit there in stunned disbelief that he now has a smashed computer monitor. Just like the insane gambling behavior, there seems to be some kind of deep, fundamental disconnect in this guy's ability to grasp cause and effect that even a four-year-old could understand.

It's as if he's unable to predict the consequences of his actions even 30 seconds into the future.

Don't you miss the days when monitors violently exploded when you broke their screens?
They don't make 'em like that no more.

On the other hand it took a lot more effort/tardrage to smash through the thick glass tube than for an LCD flat panel, you had to work for your shrapnel.

Austin looks like a mix of Jessie Pinkman and Trainboy54. I tuned into a 7 minute stream he did yesterday, he started with $100 and played a little blackjack before losing the rest to some stupid raccoon match-4 slot game. Him running out of money at the end and him just staring at the website in pure awe telling him he's out is so funny to me, like what were you expecting? Then he does the usual "I hate my life" and ends stream.

 

[whogoesthere]

Who cares if he gets a job? If he makes money streaming then yeah, it's his job.

It's his life he can do whatever he wants. If his parents allow it then that's on them and him. More adults are living with their parents than ever before. Rent and housing costs are too high and wages are too low. Nothing is really odd about a 28 year old living at home anymore.

This is true. But what is not true, is most of those 28 year old living at home are punching their doors to bits. Smashing chunks out of the wall. Gambling, then begging for more money to gamble.

As an aside, you know that "will someone help me" shit he does, he learned that in jail. Little Tads always pull that shit when the "forget" to pay their tabs and some big bloke stomps the fuck out of them.

 

[Kees H]

I just don't understand why his parents are putting up with his shit and why they haven't kicked him out yet. Why would you keep a tard in the house that smashes your walls, breaks your doors and is screaming at 2 AM while gambling all his grifted money away on dumb ass illegal gambling sites? I get that you want to might want to take care of your kid, but at this point he's just a destructive stoner squatting in their house, kick this waste of breath out of the house already.

Oh my god, he got that thousand-yard stare when he learned the money he lost. Lmao. How can someone end like this and live this miserably?

He is such a broke loser. That's why I avoid casinos like a plague.

I like to think that if I were this dude's parent, I'd kick the fucker out. But I don't know what it's like being a parent. There's gotta be some reason they don't do it.
Maybe they're too scared of him to do anything. He's obviously got violent tendencies.

Violence + drug addiction + gambling addiction + criminal history to fund habits

The man if they kicked him out would end up nowhere good. I'd offer him a "rehab or streets" deal. Either he goes and gets help for his MULTIPLE addictions or he's gone.

They know kicking out someone like him means he may not come back. They're scared to lose him. They're under the fallacy that it's better that he's under their roof doing this. But it's not. It's a tough position to be in and ive seen perfectly rational people have their blood run cold at the idea of having their kid arrested with charges, kicked out, or forced to rehab.

They're in a co-dependant relationship with him. I'm sure they see the cycling of emotions too and the tears likely hit them harder than us because we have no history with him. We didn't raise him. We didn't know him before. We don't have memories with him fishing or hiking or just joking around. We just see him at this stage in his life. A perpetual childlike state and we correctly judge it as unhealthy and stupid.

They ain't gonna get rid of him unless he does something REALLY REALLY dangerous and stupid that likely will endanger their lives. Sadly a lot of these cases end in enablers getting the shit beaten out of them or someone they love before they snap. Or the wrong people coming to the house to rob it or fuck it up because someone didn't pay.

Either way there is no good ending in sight.

Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.
