How long would you self-exclude after a bad loss?

[Onyeeze]

By the way, even though I self-excluded from this one casino, I can still access other crypto casinos, so it does not really feel like a full self-exclusion. 

This is why the concept of self-exclusion on casinos makes little or no sense to me because it is more like abandoning a casino instead of quitting gambling totally. It is a better practice to be honest with yourself and self-exclude yourself by yourself for the length of time you'll want to take off the casino. If I ever find myself gambling carelessly, I am not going to be using the self-exclusion feature, rather I will quit gambling for as long as I like or it takes me to heal from my gambling irresponsibility.

Even quitting gambling is not always easy except one create another addiction, gambling is very addictive and once a gambler losses it’s always not easy to just quit and just stay away from betting especially when the gambler have money in his account, i just feel the only way a gambler can quit is to create another addiction that will take away his attention for some period of time, that will also enable the gambler restrain himself for some time from gambling, rushing to re-gamble after a big loss is always not so good because it will make the gambler lose more.

continue gambling is something of mind and if you have taken your decision that you are not going to gamble again based on the experience you got from losing I don't think about gambling will still in your mind because I know very well that gambling can make us to do extra things that we didn't plan to do especially when we are interested to recover things back we have lost in gambling, gambling addiction is easy to stop only if you are determined to stop it but if you are not taking the decision to stop gambling I don't think that you will stop gambling so easily but self control and the self discipline is the determinant of quitting from gambling

So it's safe to say that you simply just left that particular casino and moved to a new one. I personally wouldn't view it as self-exclusion on my own part. The fact that I have other platforms at my disposal and I can go back anytime I like just doesn't make it feel like self-exclusion anymore.

Back to the topic, I don't think I have ever self-excluded because of a bad loss. The only ones I could think of are that whenever I experience a huge loss, what I do is that I usually just take a break till I have enough money to play again, but it's never too much to exclude myself.

After a bad loss, does self-exclusion ever come into your mind?

This happened to me last night. I had a very bad run, like literally my whole bankroll was gone so I decided to self-exclude so I will never touch that casino again. It is just one casino only and I chose to self-exclude for one year. How about the gamblers here, if you decide to self-exclude how long do you usually apply it for? 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, or lifetime?

By the way, even though I self-excluded from this one casino, I can still access other crypto casinos, so it does not really feel like a full self-exclusion. 

Well, to be honest after a bad loss the thought can cross my mind but I think selfexclusion works best when it is done calmly and not purely out of frustration (I did it many times) . If I were to use it I would probably choose at least 6 months or 1 year because a few weeks is usually not enough to break old habits or avoid more losses.

The bigger issue with crypto gambling is exactly what you mentioned, excluding yourself from one casino is easy, but there are dozens of others available so real self control still has to come from the gambler, I think it’s not a perfect solution but also can help.

[Slimzeee]

I will say that self-exclusion and deciding never to gamble again never work just like that, especially when you have lost a series of bets, because as a gambler, it is not always that easy.

What I can advise in situations like this is taking a break after a series of losses.
Mental health is important. This is when I advise people to communicate as much as possible, especially with their loved ones. It makes you realize that life is more than gambling or profit and loss.

It also helps to reduce the possibility of depression or trying to chase after the money you have lost, which can in turn make you lose even more money.

I always bet with small amounts so that I can maintain self-control after losing so that gambling does not become a big threat to my life. However, some gamblers do not follow the right rules and gamble aggressively just in the hope of winning more money. As a result, they face big financial losses which become very difficult for them to accept. For some time, they voluntarily stop gambling because gambling has destroyed all their necessary money, but over time, they forget everything and start gambling again.

I follow the same principle because I have had bad experience in the past and I've decided that I will not allow myself to get back into such situations anymore. Whenever I gamble I try to use an amount of money that won't trigger any signs of addiction and regrets since all what I try to do is to gamble for the purpose of entertainment. If I was to lose money I can get right back to gambling the next day because I know the amount I will lose is not going to become that big of a deal since I always have a limit to how much capital I can use to stake on a game. Gamblers have to understand that they need to be in control of their decision making so they don't put their self in a situation in which it will be difficult for them to recover from.

If a gambler can open a new account in another casino, how does that help him to remember to stop gambling? Small or huge bankroll, why does it matter?

If you didn't notice, there are many "scam accusation" topics about people who excluded themselves, but they opened a new account on the same platform, and what happened later? I am not a judge or a jury.... I just think that this feature is pointless. If you wish to play, you will find a way... and be sure that many people will try to abuse it.

For some people it's pointless, but not all. Try to think differently, like "if you wish to stop playing, you will find a way." Then self-exclusion is included in your thoughts to try to stop playing.
Not all people have similar IQs; remember there are also dumb people. A feature like this could help a few people that others thought it was pointless for. I'm not a financial advisor, nor are you, so both of us don't know how high their IQ is.

If they create a new account, that is a mistake. I know it will result in a scam accusation because most of them have already violated most of the terms that gambling casinos do not allow. However, only a few people made scam accusations, compared to the many people who benefited from this feature.

Self-exclusion would perform better if you do it for all the casinos you've been playing to, not just on a single one or limited casinos, otherwise you still have all the freedom to play whenever you feel the winning vibes, which means way to go for more bad losses.

Honestly, I have not done it nor think of it. I don't think I can leave gambling quickly, but I can always create some limits when it comes to my betting funds. But if you think you're silently going through gambling addiction, do no think of it anymore, request for a self-exclusion immediately because the more you let yourself stay gambling, the more chances you will be ruining your finances and live your life miserably.

Isn't that the same lie, I once isolated myself from the casino but not for one casino, but I applied it to all my gambling activities so that I could be calm and peaceful, even though the desire to play continues to be passionate, but in that position it is not wearing because you think about the game and the hope of returning money continuously until at the end you get used to not gambling and your thinking is much more mature than before which makes you able to know which is good and which is bad for you to do in gambling, from there you will understand the important lessons from gambling for yourself.

So my advice is better isolation not just for one casino, isolation from gambling for your mental situation is a good choice now.

[Orpichukwu]

If I was ever in this position that I thought about self-exclusion, I would stop gambling completely.
Usually people do this when gambling has taken a major financial toll on them.

If you can stop completely, then that will be good, as you don't have to worry about losing again, but some people feel this way not because of the level of money they have lost over time but because of how quickly they burn out their bankroll as if it was nothing. Some losing streak makes you feel as if gambling is against you, and the only thing you think of is how to give up completely.

[Crypto_Timothy]

I think it's good to want to take a break once or twice but then self exclusion because of a loss, now that I don't exactly buy even if I can understand the pain that went into the decision making. Sometimes I think about this self exclusion and I wonder, since self exclusion just blocks an emails or some, then an easy way to buy pass it is just create a new email and open new account. This self exclusion works when maybe it's device oriented or IP perhaps so someone cannot use easily on a just different platform.

That is the right thing to do, because in most cases you should b in charge of your betting style and ways, and not leave your responsibilities of gambling responsibly for someone else or depending on a feature that put casino a disadvantage to decide wether you play or more or just take the leave, so betting with amount that is very small and you can let go easily is the ultimate thing to do to be at a safer side in gambling.

In fact, if you self-exclude yourself from just one casino, leaving a dozen other options open then it does not mean you are quitting the game. It can be called just changing tables. After facing any big loss, everyone should take a short break of at least 3 to 7 days. I think doing this will help refresh your mind more than any formal tool. Because if you have a mobile, internet and VPN at hand then you could easily bypass any tool

It all depends on the gambler and his understanding, some gamblers will be so angry with themselves because of their huge loss and exclude themselves for as long as they want which will be only on casino which is wrong, gambling online means you are not self- excluded from gambling which implies your are just being shying away from the true reality of gambling.

Personally I don't see that as self exclude and I don't practice such,, if I want to exclude myself is from both physical casino and online that gives you a full self-exclusion which will last me for just few days because I need to move ahead with life.

[Cryptohygenic]

Note that we have also countered a lot of news about gamblers who had self excluded themselves from gambling after some huge hit losses but due to indisciplines and addictions, they could not remain abided effectively so, they breaks the rules and goes back to gambling again after all.
So it is not really about a matter of self exclusion that takes the ride, it is about your ability to stay off at when do and reacts according to what you think is best to keep you healthy and responsible.

[PhilosopherKing]

It looks like you are blaming a casino for your loss and you are now avoiding that casino and running to others thinking that you would be saved from loosing. you really think that the casino is responsible for your loss. Even if you still use other casino the loose will still not get excluded, it will still happen regardless. Gambling is normally something that deals with luck, you win base on your luck, and then loose based on luck also, so let us quit thinking that casino is a major cause of losses.

It is the prerogative of each player to decide on ceasing. Someone who is aware of when to quit is safest than those who play the entire day through. I believe that you can have few days off, and you will be able to concentrate. Don't get so upset at losing and bet again with wrong money.

If I were on your position and have experienced bad losses consistently, I will go for a lifetime self-exclusion especially if I've seen my gambling lifestyle is never healthy anymore. Its just a matter of acceptance that gambling is not really meant for you, or else you will go homeless in the long run.

But if you are still just having bad days, you can for 1 month first and then try gambling again. If the problem is not on the casino but on your gambling behavior, then go for a lifetime instead.

I don't think that we should establish any specific time of self-exclusion that would be applied in every case like this because there are going to be many differences and changes in how bad the case is. Some cases are going to have a big risk of creating an addiction and while many people may downplay this it is true, so strong measures are needed. If it happened to me like to you, I would say at least a few months are appropriate because you basically went through all the limits and discipline which is very risky. But I did not understand why you wrote that casino because that somehow implies that you are still allowed to play at others? If this is true, then your exclusion is very ineffective and I do not recommend doing it that way. Exclusion should always be only from all gambling and never limited to trick ourselves.

[Mr_Brilliant$]

Did you really self exclude? Haha... Because you still were accessing other casinos.. I think you just avoided that particular casino, not really self excluding from gambling..

But me, I could, and I have self excluded gambling for over 3 months before, and I could do more if needed.. For me, the real self exclusion is when you stay away from gambling completely, not just one casino while still playing on others..

Like you said earlier, if they are constantly having losses, if it were to be me, I  permanently excluded myself from gambling, after, I'm not even having any benefits in it, which I see no reason why I should continue gambling after so much loss and pains. And this is the hardest part that most gamblers refused to accept, because they feel that trying again will give them good results, meanwhile they are just hurting themselves and it will also affect their loved ones, that's why giving gambling a break when the game its not in their favour, doesn't mean they are weak but they are being protective of their emotions and their minds.
