Your ideas are ok.. Though everything would depend on how trustworthy your friends or relatives are.
There are suggestions about auto locking wallet for days,  weeks or years. I think it is much safer than sending money to your relative or friends wallet.

This is easier said than done, as far as I know there's no easy way to lock your funds.
It's about time that wallets implement a time-lock feature.

If you want to do it the 'hard' way, here's a relatively easy guide:

With relatives I was not lucky , but lucky with good friends . We have a relationship proven over the years and we have a joint property that is rented . But  is not easy to find such reliable people in life  . People who are above money .

Well, that is the fact of people who always seeking an exchange, they are not real friends of yours.
Back to the OP's topic.
Winning streak is the thing that makes a gambler excited. It is very common for a person to feel the excitement if they win many times however, excitement could give you an emotion of greediness and would make your bet lose. If you have the winning streak and wanted to keep it, stop it right away and go home. You have to make sure to go home with cash in your pocket.

Happy for you mate,
but really, how can you do this:
1) First thing I did I began to constantly repeat the word Stop Game - Withdrawal , and it helps me to stop game when I start win and
make a withdrawal .

No matter how many times I repeat those words it does not work Grin
Sadly, I never stop unless I lose everything and have nothing left in my account balance.

I already wrote above about it , but perhaps you have not noticed .
How about a hardware wallet Trezor or Ledger closed in Bank safety deposit box . You have a wallet number, you transfer money, the wallet is in the Bank, you can even go to the nearest city what is located at a distance of 200-300 km from you. It is necessary to make it extremely difficult to physically access the wallet . Well, just set a goal not to touch the savings on this wallet in the next 2-3 years .

To distribute the funds as follows :
1) Main  Wallet  - Means not to take in the next 2-3 years . Keep the main  70-80% of money .
2) Wallet-Accumulative for a big game, do not take Funds in the next 4-6 months . 
3) Wallet  for each day the maximum balance 10-15% of the total capital

You have to do something about it . Fight him and change this situation . The worst thing is that we getting into a habit to such actions and they determine our future life . To something we a getting into a habit for a long time, to something  very quickly . Imagine yourself in next 20 years, you want to be in next 20 years in same situation , and everything was the same ? If you do not think  now about  that  then it may be too late in nearest future  , time flies fast .

If I'm unable to control myself and feel that I have a gambling problem, then I either wouldn't go to a casino, or I would take someone with me who will not allow me to spend more than a set limit. Fortunately, I don't have a gambling problem, and am able to control myself Smiley I don't understand people who win large amounts of money, and then keep playing until they lose it all. For them, it's not about the money, but it is all about the adrenaline rush that they get out of the experience.

There are basically no principles to playing gambling and there is no 100 percent rules to keep winnings safe. The best is to just be oneself. Just play it like you are having fun and the result would always be massive. It is when one enters gambling or sees it as an entertainment, you learn would obey instinct.

It is very important to go with your instinct when gambling, it will let you know when to stop and would also tell you when to proceed but when the game is taking too serious with rules and regulations you might not listen to your instincts but rather the rules.

I gamble with steem/sbd on Steem platform, what I do is after winnings I power up to steem power (which is locked and takes 12 weeks for complete power down) (not many friends haha).

Adrenaline rush is always been there as long we are engage on gambling. Winning bets would trigger it and thats how gambling sites do really like where gamblers
do able to reach out such state because most likely lose all of the money that they have won.If you do really know that you do have some gambling addiction then you shouldnt
play at all.

Just keep reminding your self the money you are going to spend on gambling needs to be done without any earnings which can give us self control while we lose bets and when we win we just have to walk away with that and feels lucky for that.

After losing half a bitcoin then you must already know how to discipline yourself in gambling and besides it's your money, hard earned or not.

The best protection that anyone can give to themselves in losing money is to stop gambling at all.

I've been addicted to gambling before and I am also doing this the time I am realizing I have enough but it is not working. I thought, if my bet win I will be leaving this area but after that a rooster with good body will be fighting or sometimes you know the owner of it so you continue to bet talking to yourself again about getting out until it becomes, I will get out once I got my losses. Continuing, in the end it will be I hope I stopped at that time. To explain this, it is easier to say this than to do it.

Excitement usually happens when we have a winning streak, it is also the time where we can experience a more greedy moves. The best strategies is either to stop playing or to save some of your profit. Gamblers will always feel the excitement, the result will just depend on how we handle that excitement.


That's the fact answer playing gambling is always exciting and get nervous what is.the result of the bet. Savings of profits its also depends from the player greedy.

It's very important to be able to control yourself in gambling and never thought that you can constantly making profit in gambling, setting a stop limit is already a good strategy to start, separate wallet is needed when you can't fully control yourself, but I don't think we need to involve other people's in gambling, I don't like the idea to letting people know that I gamble, the first thing that needed to control yourself is to set your mindset about gambling, when you got the correct mindset then you can have the better self control

I bet a gambler would not stop, though I did not loss this much but I'm pretty sure I'm in this kind of situation in the past.

Losing more than you can afford to lose will make you regret, promise not to gamble again but still you will persist to do it because we are just human and we cannot deny that gambling is really entertaining. I am thankful that I don't a loss a lot now, I believe I'm in normal procedure, slowly I'm in control.

Your ideas are ok.. Though everything would depend on how trustworthy your friends or relatives are.
There are suggestions about auto locking wallet for days,  weeks or years. I think it is much safer than sending money to your relative or friends wallet.

With relatives I was not lucky , but lucky with good friends . We have a relationship proven over the years and we have a joint property that is rented . But  is not easy to find such reliable people in life  . People who are above money .

I think when it comes to money, it is hard to trust anyone and not even our most trusted relatives or friends can be trusted. The only person whom you can trust is yourself and you should be mature enough to save your holding yourself, rather than looking for people who can keep your money save.

I gamble with steem/sbd on Steem platform, what I do is after winnings I power up to steem power (which is locked and takes 12 weeks for complete power down) (not many friends haha).

That is what I doing as well but with TRX. It give me the possibility of freezing them which lasts 3 days so after 3 days I have forgotten my need to gamble.
Steem gives more time to have them locked, I believe that 12 weeks are too much but it is a good strategy to follow if you want not to be addicted to gambling games.

You’re lucky with your friends and I do hope to found a friend like that. I just can’t afford to trust anyone with my money, but in gambling its good to save some of your profit and sending it to someone you trusted that much. The excitement should still be there since you gamble to have fun, but you must also focus on your goal.
