Responsible gambling

[Saisher]

Any of you guys uses the responsible gambling feature? If so, what do you think about it? Is it helpful or does it only gives you a sense of control

This allows you to continue gambling at a limited phase and fund, everybody should do this from time to time to control their urge to gamble even if they are not a chronic gambler, you should establish the habit of limiting your time and fund from time to time so to avoid chasing your losses, habits, and mindset is powerful to help you avoid becoming a gambling addict.

To avoid, running after the loss, I have set up the responsible gambling in my account and it helps me a lot to control the bad beats against my will to recharge my account and ending up losing it all again.

This is responsible gambling and from your side you are handling it so well, so you can not address yourself as a gambling addict by any means. This is how gamblers should play. Know your limit and when to quit, whether winning or losing. Gambling should not be a do or perish type of activity. It should be fun and that is the way I see it. Anything that makes it become a burden should be cut off and ended. Not doing that immediately makes it become dangerous to mental health and financial risk.

You are truthful to yourself that is why you are handling it and it is not ruining your life. Addictions are harder to control for those who do not accept that they are really addicted to something.

Features like Responsible gambling are designed to help and so far, it is helping you, means it can also help someone, which is why I would like to ask you on which account did you activate the responsible gambling feature? Was it on your bank account, or your gambling account? If it is a gambling account, is it a common feature with all online gambling platform?

Addiction is not something planned or being accepted. It occurs naturally because of the drive of a certain individual. Ofcourse everyone wants to avoid addiction but why does it seem that many people are being addicted not only to gambling but also to other activities. It happens because they are unconscious of what is happening to them. Most of us planned to play in this industry safe from being addicted into it. What becomes a problem is the reality that some players are just too hooked up with the idea that there are players who became rich in an instant which often yield to debt, which makes them more eager to continue olaying despitw of huge losses. This is where professionals enter but that would require initiative from the players once they are aware that they are being too hooked up with gambling.

It needs courage and dedication to follow and apply this control strategy wholeheartedly because if not, it will only be easy for a gambling addict to go back and enjoy gambling uncontrollably. The mindset to stop betting should be firm so a player would be able to turn his back on too much betting. It only takes self-control and self-discipline after all.

Right, as you said that addiction is not something that is planned or accepted. however, not everything happens naturally. In fact, in certain cases a person often ignores the level of risk of their activities. I mean here, in terms of all kinds of addictions.

Speaking in the context of gambling addiction, it is not uncommon for someone to be in a phase of addiction, at the same time they are not aware of it. cases like this, are very common among gamblers. even myself, initially did not realize that I was part of a gambling addict. as you said, some of us plan not to get addicted while doing activities in this industry. however, in reality such things are not as easy as we say. basically, psychologically our brain is stimulated to get pleasure which increases the excessive production of dopamine. the effect is, we often find it difficult to control ourselves.

IMO, in the end. if someone does not want to get stuck in gambling addiction, he should at least be aware of the definition of gambling, responsibility and understanding. after that, someone will be formed to have better self-control. for me, at the end of the day gambling is just part of fun entertainment without expecting to win high profits. yes, just for entertainment that won only. no more.

Maybe, we all here have gambling sites that can really be trusted and are responsible for us in losing and winning bets, in general the features don't exist for me, but I have what you said.

To be honest, I have thrown away several online gambling sites, now I only have 2 online gambling sites that can be responsible for me in all respects, I have spent a lot of things there, only these gambling sites want to be responsible.

[madnessteat]

I do not use such services as I have learned to control my own spending on gambling and other entertainment. In my opinion, there is nothing worse than the inability to control yourself and your desires.

In fact, I do not really understand the meaning of such services if a person who has a gambling addiction can play in different casinos using both fiat money and cryptocurrencies to play. It does not take long to switch to another website and make a deposit - it would be a desire.

I consider myself a gambling addict. However, unlike gambling addicts, I'm aware of my addiction and I know how to control it.

If you are still in control, I do not consider that an addiction yet. Maybe you are just a gambling enthusiast.

To avoid, running after the loss, I have set up the responsible gambling in my account and it helps me a lot to control the bad beats against my will to recharge my account and ending up losing it all again.

For me this has been working for quite some time and it was a way I found to prevent me from throwing money that I need away.

I am not aware of this service. What bookies or website offer this kind of service? I do not need this kind of service yet because I am still very much in control of my gambling habits. But, just in case I ever need one, I would like to know where to avail.

Responsible gambling, in my opinion, is when you are not greedy. It is very simple to win a gambling game if you are not greedy. Set up a plan, perhaps by selecting a specific odds that you will be gambling on at your leisure, and keep rolling over by accumulating the wins until you know you have had enough.

this responsible gambling feature is very helpful to prevent those who want to deposit money into their account after losing in a row .. this of course will help players to be able to control their money and prevent them from spending too much of their money .. this feature itself has started to be implemented at several online casinos in Australia and is very effective in preventing players from using too much of their money in games

Yeah, I actually find the feature extremmely useful as ot prevents you to get out of control and immediatelly recharhe your account after a real hard bad beat. That is basically when you feel frustrated for losing hard and in the back of your mind you believe that it is perfectly possible to recover all the money  lost in a coupple of plays. Well, this is terribly wrong and this feature is perfect to help you avoid going down that road.

I consider myself a gambling addict. However, unlike gambling addicts, I'm aware of my addiction and I know how to control it. What I love most is playing poker and also sports betting. The latter is the one that screws me the most. Even though, I can get some real good profits,
sometimes I get wild and end up losing all of my money.

That can work when you have only one account as your main account and you have most of your balance there but it does not work at all when you have only restricted yourself at only one website,you need to activate responsible gambling in every site you may like to play.I don't use the responsible gambling feature at all as I have found to not be addicted anymore,I don't spend more than 100 dollars weekly no matter what happens,win or lose I stop after that.

Sport betting screws you only when you bet irresponsibly by just chasing your loses and not thinking cold headed.

We talking about "Responsible Gambling"

Self-exclusive is also one of them, did you things by only a word & mind you're not getting temptation to no playing on the site too? tell me by percentage and how successful is was. Even if you are reading "Responsible Gambling", you can still come back again.

We have 2 things we can do:
1. From mindset & control emotion.
2. If some people cannot do the first one, they are going to do try limited or blocked accessible to the casino site.

Self-exclusion has a set time before you can come back to the casino. Even if you try to login, if that time period is still on you will not have access to your account unless you request to remove it through their support. What OP is saying is that their account has limited access on certain features like deposits after a certain amount has been lost to the casino. Those are two completely different things, unless of course OP just mean "responsible gambling" as an umbrella term (which I think isn't the case as this post progresses).

I can resist the temptation of not going back to the casino for a long time, and actually it's my 3rd week of not playing dice after years of continuous streak losing $20/week. I do not need this feature, nor do I feel there will be a need for me to have it. It's nice to have on a target audience that has problems controlling themselves when they already started gambling.

Stake.com has that feature. https://stake.com/policies/self-exclusion

I remember there was a user here before that complained about it since he's still receiving email-related service or anything related to gambling that's not helping him to stay away from gambling.

I understand that technical problems should be solved by the site itself but is it really the thing to blame why the user is having a hard time staying away from gambling? For sure even just browsing social media, gambling-related ads are anywhere.

While there are platforms that help us to control our gambling activity, we should also do adjustments and help ourselves.

Good to know you are keeping a check on your gambling addiction. I haven't noticed the responsible gambling feature on any site. And even if I do, I do not think there will ever be a cause to use it because I try to keep a gambling budget monthly. Another manual responsible gambling feature which I sort of keep to is to my my gambling activity in check by a close pal. They are there to hold me accountable and remind me when I am about to go above my limit.

[Franctoshi]

Good you bring this into awareness basically for those that do need it, Though I haven't used this feature before, seem it will make sense if other gambling platforms should include it in their platform.

At some point many gamblers become so addicted to gambling that they can help theirselves out and features like this will be of great value for them to use in trying to reducing the amount of money they risk while betting.

The self-exclusion should be a must in any casino nowadays, most of them have some links on the footer with the Responsible Gambling information, but that is not enough to help someone who really has problems with gambling.

But there are other options like browser plugins to block websites, or block the sites directly from your modem. But if the gambler doesn't want to quit, then these tools will not be enough.

I believe that those are just complimentary feature just to make it look that casinos are really that concern for people who are addicted but back or behind on which they do love these addicted people because it could
bring out more revenue to them.Just not to make them look bad or taking up some advantage and this is why they do offer that self exclusion but actually this wont really be totally effective specially
if a certain person is already that addicted then it could really be that impossible that it would be completely stopped even if its self excluded but rather they would be finding
another place w hich they could play on.

[Yawa2020]

In as far as the feature is good, self discipline is the best thing to do because this feature can activated and deactivated at any time one wish. But if self discipline is acquired, you can set your daily limit and operate by it without even using this feature.

You got some point but you dont know if the platform is really having that concern or truly showing up some sympathy into those people who had been badly affected by gambling addiction.Its true that they would really be that happy if ever there are people who do impulsively spend tons of money which is their main target in the first place.If they are really that having that sympathy
then they would still need to approach a certain gambler if they are still fine or they are making some reminders that they are spending that much but it is really that hard to believe
since this is business.

I was just about to say that admission of guilt isn't going to solve the problem but is only a step towards a solution, until I saw thw latter parts, to which I must say it is a good thing. Not that being aware of your problem is any bad because it is actually great that you have been made aware of your issue. Anyhow, you're on a right track yet it's not enough that you just know how to limit yourself with refilling your account, you must know when to stop as well so maybe as a next step to a more responsible gambling behavior, you take up taking imposing game limits on yourself too? Like maybe just set two to three losses for yourself, and if you reach thst you must stop for the day. And also impose same limits for your wins so you don't get too greedy. Creating habits is a great way to solve addiction, I have seen people get rid of their more grave types of addictions by subjecting themselves to strict discipline followed by a calculated life. And ask any psychiatrist around, they'd say the same thing.
