$3 Billion gambled away?! Streamer shares shocking facts

Popular content creator, streamer and gamer Felix “xQc” has revealed that he has gambled away nearly $3 billion on Stake.com. Last month, he confirmed that his total bets had reached a staggering $2,954,739,443. While continuing to play on Stake.com, xQc took to the air this week to vent his frustrations on well-known casino developer Pragmatic Play.

xQc lashes out at Pragmatic Play after losing $1.5 million in a single day

Earlier this week, xQc decided to host another lengthy gambling stream on the Kick platform. His starting balance? A whopping $1.52 million. However, by the end of the nine-hour session, that was down to $123.10. In just one day, the streamer has lost a shocking $1.5 million. As he was about to end his stream, he turned off his camera, but then he burst out.

Frustrated, xQc began to voice his displeasure with Pragmatic Play. 

“Bro, I’m not stupid. I’m not stupid. I called them out on their shit, my account is dead. I get it, I get it. You guys are mad because I called your games trash, and now you’re hurting my chances. You’re losers. Your games are trash.”

The streamer’s tirade continues

The streamer xQc continued his tirade, making it clear that he had nothing good to say about Pragmatic Play. He even claimed that other game developers were stealing more and more of their audience. “Every other provider will take your customers because you’re worthless,” he exclaimed, using several swear words.

xQc’s anger was not entirely unexpected, given his huge loss that day, but his accusations remain unsubstantiated. Pragmatic Play is known as a respected provider of online casino games and is licensed in several countries. Although xQc accused them of rigged odds, he did not provide any evidence.

It is also unclear whether such manipulation is technically possible. While his statements leave room for speculation, it seems that xQc was mainly reacting emotionally after hours of streaming and big losses.

Viewers reacting and memes in the chat

In the livestream chat, viewers reacted to xQc’s outburst with a mix of humor and concern. Some users shared funny emojis and joked. One wrote: “YELLING AT SLOT MACHINES,” while others encouraged him to stop gambling. One viewer commented: “I think he’s addicted,” and another joked: “The CEO of Pragmatic won’t be happy about this.”

After a few minutes, xQc turned his camera back on and reiterated that he doesn’t like Pragmatic Play’s games, again underlining with a few swear words. Before ending his stream, he even claimed that many of Pragmatic Play’s games were “blacklisted,” although he didn’t give any further details.
