If you have a high tendency to not stop until busting, then I came across these tips which do help:

  • Don't put all your available bankroll directly in the game (in case you're using deposits). Leave always at least half outside as a security measure if you go bust.
  • One must stop after reaching a certain goal, The goal should be predetermined and shouldn't be changed during the play.
  • If you're doing really good, withdraw part of your earnings (if you can, ofc) to avoid losing it all in one go.

Having a big bankroll can make you feel falsely safe in that "oh I'll just keep increasing my bet until I win" but alas, the 30 reds in a row do exist, and will come. Do not let them take it all.

The goal you make should be realistic and firm, Don't change it or else be prepared to face bad consequences.

You gotta fight back the voice that screams inside your brain "Come on, double again and we recover!".
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

It's actually pretty easy to quit gambling in a day. You have to set a target in a day, about how much money you want to spend. You can not spend more than that in a day. Whatever happens, even if you win or lose, you still have to stop as soon as your target or limit is reached. Just like hobbies and food, you can not spend all your money on hobbies and food. You're going to save money and set aside your money to do other things like investing and saving money. Savings and salary is a mandatory and must be sustainable.

It can be easy to some but others can not control themselves. Although i agree with the tips above.

Also i believe that stop drinking alcohol when in casino or gambling because it alters your brain,being intoxicated will give you fake hope and courage that makes gamble more.

actually, I am not using big bankroll in the game and I don't deposit too much money if I want. I like your tips and I think we can do this if we want to play gambling. one thing that we should understand is we don't have to try too hard in gambling games because the chance for us to win the games is small and we cannot depend on our luck to win. we need to realize this and we should think that we are playing gambling is just for fun and not make money.

Its time to stop when you have reached your limit. Its sometimes a struggle to do so specially when you want to win back your losses.

Most of the gamblers usually set limits before starting gambling but while gambling they can't control their emotions so end up spending more than what they fix the limits. For those kinds of gamblers who can't control their emotions while playing the best idea is never load amount more than what you can afford to lose for that day then no need to worry about the limits.

We always seen same scenario inside gambling house where gamblers tend that they can control and just set some limits when playing inside, the problem is when they are too aggressive they forget to stay with their limits and and keep playing end results would always be in negative, better to just play for fun and never aimed to much stop when you already gain some.

All these tips has already been discussed and keeps on discussing in one way or another but the matter of fact is that none of them will work until someone have a strong self control. Sorry to say but addicted gamblers don't have a control over self most of the time and it's one the reason they become addicted to it. For occasional gamblers these tips are really helpful and great way to safety.

most of gamblers have set up their own limit to avoid bankrupt but sometimes most of them violating their own limits because too greedy or curious to recover their losses without thinking the risk and that's why consistensy is required to do so but i personally because while gamble sometimes i can't control my emotion but i always gamble with small amount and if i'm lost then i will leave gamble and move to other activities

You must stop when your limit is not enough again to play, and you must setup limit to play gambling.
If you setup the limit, it can help you to lose more money, and you must control your emotional to play gambling.

Smart people will never gamble for money or in case if they win in the beginning of their game itself they will quit for the day and enjoy the profit for themselves or with friends etc rather than gambling again. So its always better to have a full control when its comes to gambling and do not fall in the trap of greed.

I like the part where you have said that if you have somewhat a lot of money and feeling that you have an allowance to play with, you would definitely feel the security feeling that you still have money to play with. It's the false safe feeling that you are talking about and I have definitely felt that.

When it can not be in the first experiment, it's natural. But if the next is still the same, if still not able to control themselves then it is just laziness to obey the limit already made. Being able to stop after reaching the limit is a necessity, over and over again it is not a bad self-control, but it goes beyond that limit.

it is easy to say but it is actually hard to do. youll never know when to stop until you loose all your available balance , that is a fact and most of us are doing everytime whenever they do gambling but in my case i do stop wherever i won on a single bet and i wont continue anymore because if i do , id still gonna loose it all due to the fact that i only play dice game and hi lo games which is indeed pretty risky and wont require a skill rather than pure luck.

I agree that many gamblers try to put a limit to their losses and they break that limit after getting emotional.

What I usually recommend is to stop when you feel tired, and it is even better to set time limits, so you don’t play for longer than an hour without having at least a 10-minute break. This, again, may be useless for people with strong self-control issues but it will be useful for the rest.

In short, its all about "SELF CONTROL". No matter how you determine your goal/limit before start gambling, but if you have no self control then all the mentioned 3 points wont work. It is very easy to say, to advise or to recommend but it is hard to do when you are playing.

When you no longer have fun when you play, just take a break to start fresh later. Gambling is a game that is meant to entertain us. If you see it as a business that can be profitable, you're doing it wrong. You should stop when it's starting to affect your financial situation.
For me, gambling is all about fun. Once you loose that, it's time to rest and a break can be good.

People will find it hard to have fun anymore when they faced a bad result (lose) and unfortunately at such situation, people tend to forget their previous plans regarding gambling. People will keep chasing their previous lost instead of stopping at that point.

I agree with all the points that you just wrote, but let me put few addons.

First of all, you should be stopping with the bets when you feel that you are out of control.
I will explain further, when you feel that you are betting more then you planned to bet, and when you feel that you are spending too much time on that, time that is imporant for you and you didn't plan on spending, that would be the right time to stop.

You should limit yourself, if you won't, you are on the way to get busted.

Don't put all your available bankroll directly in the game (in case you're using deposits). Leave always at least half outside as a security measure if you go bust.
What will you do with the other half if you bust? Would you come next day(or any other day) to gamble with it? If you have 100$ which you can afford to lose, why would you take only half of it? It is EV- game, separating funds doesn't make much sense in long run.
One must stop after reaching a certain goal, The goal should be predetermined and shouldn't be changed during the play.
How your goal looks like?
If you're doing really good, withdraw part of your earnings (if you can, ofc) to avoid losing it all in one go.
This is contradiction to your second statement.
