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

[CryptSafe]

I agree with you here. What is the point of self exclusion when you can access many other casino's except the one you self exclude from. Do you not think one can still gamble with other casinos? It would be making more sense if the self exclusion is general like if one excludes themselves from a casino, the rest of the other casino's are notified like it should be on a data base or something of that nature where a little information is stored so that other casinos can be notified and also access it if any access from that IP address decides to gamble again them they would restrict the account holder. This way self exclusion would be making some sense and having a meaning because anything outside it is a waste of time because the gambler if not disciplined would definitely play with another casino.

Then to help make this achievable for the best of willing gamblers, they should be a body like a union that controls this request across casinos, to make sure players who opt in for this option don't find any room of gambling in another casino. In absence of a body as such, self exclusion is completely worthless, because the urge to play games doesn't go away with it, hence, affected players who wish to go this route, should work first on their emotional strength before self excluding from a casino.

Yes that's my point of view and idea. This aspect of self exclusion would be alright because when a player self exclude,  other casinos would be notified of their intentions and move to taking such a decision because they too would be on the lookout for such account holder through any trackable means be it IP address or whatever means deemed fit to prevent such persons from gambling on any casino since they already self exclude from gambling in one casino. The rest of the other casino's should be aware both online and land casinos should be aware and this would be very easier to locate the player through KYC details for regulated casinos and for unregulated casinos, maybe IP address would be easily detected banded for the number of days the player ha chosen to self exclude.  I will have to create a thread with respect to this idea and see members opinion about it.

If I lose a huge amount that I was not supposed to lose, I would personally stay away from gambling until when ever I have another spare money to gamble with, that's my own way of self exclusion, I will personally stay away from playing until when ever I just get over that lose and then have a spare cash to gamble with. It could last for weeks but not months, I can discipline myself to abstain for some weeks or a month but staying 2 months and more is not possible by me. Since you can exclude yourself on that casino for 1 year, you still have access to other casino, so you should just be careful next time to not lose that much, set a limit and when you reach it, take a break.

I've had bad losses before, but I don't do self-exclusion because it's too many steps and I also agree with the others, if you're having those thoughts, then better do it yourself knowing it's the better solution overall.

Maybe it could be effective for those who stick to a single casino, but like you've said there's always the possibility of getting tempted by another casino.

If I somehow go down the path of self-exclusion, i'd probably ask for at least a month, or depending on the lowest duration because I remember a casino that only offered 6 or 12 months.

[Nwada001]

This is exactly the reason why I don't self-exclude myself from a casino because how many am I going to apply self-exclusion on when we have varieties of options?

What I just do is discipline myself and avoid gambling for a long period of time. I could remember a period I was on a losing streak, and I disabled most things related to gambling on my phone, and I stayed almost 6 months without playing any single game.

It's self delusion on gamblers who do use the self exclusion features this way because it's like making the feature lol as though it's not achieving the aim for which it was introduced in the first place. If you're self excluding to never gambling anywhere else, it's a different thing, but when you self excluded yourself in one casino just to start gambling in another, that's pure bs.

It's not about the player actually wanting to move to another casino to play a thing; it's about them forgetting sometimes that they actually self-excluded, while other times the urge to gamble can push them into trying it, but since they have already self-excluded in one casino, they can easily move and try it in another place. As far as I know, we still don't have any system that could be used to apply for self-exclusion in all casinos at once and have it become effective.

When a gambler completely loses control over himself, then self-exclusion is definitely logical. However, if someone can control himself then this self-exclusion is not necessary. I once faced such a situation in my life, when I lost the ability to control myself. But unfortunately, I tried to gamble again just 1 week later but it did not work later. I chose another platform again and conducted gambling accordingly. Taking self-exclusion is not difficult, but if you want to gamble again, then you should not take such a step in excitement. Usually, when gamblers lose a large amount, such feelings arise quickly in them. I think that before taking any decision, one should definitely review it properly.

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. 

That's the next thing to do after a loss and that's not all, you need to make up your mind to either quit gambling forever or find a way to be more responsible with gambling

Self exclusion has an ending, even if a online casino helps, they won't move into your mind, and there is also countless casinos online this days, if self exclusion works for you on one, how about others?

The possibility of how much gamblers can win is why some gamblers will never be fine using small amount of money, especially those bets with odds, for them the higher the odds and the money the bigger the amount they can win.

Self exclusion after a big loss in betting is very possible even if the person is a chronic gambler or not.  There is a limit that gamblers reach and will not have an option than to stop gambling for some period of time or might never gamble again. Although for chronic gamblers they might not leave gambling for long.

If a gambler has not yet reach the level of him/she being called a chronic gambler, such person can easily have that thought of self-exclusion at any moment in time. But if a person has been addicted to gambling, the chances of such person having the thought of self exclusion is very rare but still possible because such person will always be having hope of recovering the money lost until some point in time that gambling deals with him or make him loose anything dear to him before he take a break for some time or forever.

I myself is also a gambler but am always able to stop myself when I feel not to because am not addicted to it and I experience such times too.

You yourself wrote that your self-exclusion can easily be circumvented by registering at a different casino. In my opinion, this is a problem with any online casino that accepts cryptocurrency. No one is stopping you from registering a new account at a new casino and starting playing again... 🙋

By the way, this is different from playing at a legal fiat casino in the US or UK. There are special registries for self-exclusion. After this procedure, you will no longer be able to play at any legal casino in that region. And there will be no way around it.

Personally, I don't plan to resort to the self-exclusion procedure. In my youth, I was a compulsive gambler, and as a result, I developed a strong immunity to gambling addiction. So now I can simply play for fun and not worry about gambling addiction. 💁

As for ways to minimize the negative consequences of gambling addiction, I think storing cryptocurrency in a cold wallet is a good option. This will significantly complicate replenishing your deposit at an online casino. Yes, it will be possible, but it will take some time.  This, in my opinion, is a good protection against impulsive and reckless actions.

What, then, is the point of self-exclusion?  Have you heard the story that was in the "Scam Accusations" section, where a guy was blocked in one casino as soon as he decided to withdraw his money, and in the explanation of the support there was proof that he himself asked them to ban him, but in fact he was a cheat, having several accounts? I just don't remember the details, but after reading this story a long time ago, I came to the conclusion that if you really quit the game, then you need to quit it completely and everywhere.

There's  another  one on this board, posted by acroman i guess.
The woman self excluded herself from gambling entirely then went ahead to get a jackpot on a land  based physical Casino where she got exposed . The funds were seized afterward and she got arrested  .

Stopping is hard but if he trully  wants to, he will find a way to stop by all means. Getting to the point of considering self exclusion is a concern on it's  own in gambling.

Edit:
Found it : Woman who asked for life time ban removed from casino after winning jackpot

It depends on the loss anyways,most gamblers are too quick to their decisions so after staking a huge amount of money and it was a loss they would hit the self exclusion feature and exit for a long period of time.Personally,I haven’t self excluded from a casino before,reason is because I can control my gambling habit,mostly those that can’t control their gambling habits are the ones using the self exclusion feature.But there’s absolutely nothing wrong in using the self exclusion feature if you feel the need of taking a break due to your uncontrollable desire or irresponsible act of gambling,such is life.Atleast you excluded from only one casino,meaning you still have full access to other casinos,probably you felt that you weren’t lucky enough again in the casino you’ve excluded yourself from.

[Dunamisx]

For a gambler to have experienced bad loss shows that things have gone wrong already, honestly it is important to take a break when you get it wrong with gambling, so that you could freshen up and try to discover some aspects you need to fix up and start down playing in a responsible manner that will not affect you in a negative way, some gamblers fail to adhere to gambling signals that won them about some decision they are taken before things get out of hands.

I haven't had this experience yet because I don't gamble with such a large amount of money that would be a big loss for me and I keep blaming myself for it. I have been able to accept the amount I have lost, which is why I don't regret it too much. But of course, after losing, it feels bad for us because no one wants to lose their money. Everyone wants to use their money to make more money. But when it comes to gambling, that doesn't happen. The maximum gambler loses in gambling and loses a lot of money. And then they keep blaming themselves but they don't stop gambling because it hits their emotions that they can never lose. They have to recover that loss by gambling.

When there is a good financial management system there wouldn't be anything called a bad loss, every loss would seem normal but greed never let's people act discipline. Let's just say people are more excited when they make decisions from their emotions because they didn't put their brain on a little bit of stress by asking important questions like what if this doesn't go right. But most people would always pick the simplified route over a more benefit pathway and that is why year in year out they don't improve but get worse.

The stigma of losing too much money to gamble can be unexpected and it is better for gamblers to seek for advise or go for counseling that could help become a better gamblers. Gambling self exclusion is aimed at helping gamblers that are becoming addictive to gambling and needed to take a rest that will will limit and distance them from gambling.
Gamblers can face more challenging if they don't self exclude themselves from gambling because of the stigma that can make them to be emotionally traumatized when they remember the harm they have done to themselves.

I believe self exclusion works best when it creates difficulty across the whole system not just one site because the idea of self exclusion  majority of the times comes right after a painful loss because the emotional system is overloaded and the person suddenly feel the need to cut access . If a person who wants self exclusion is not mentally prepared for it all of his efforts for self exclusion are in vain because when his mind cools down he will make another excuse and start gambling again. So a proper mindset and discipline needed for it rather then just taking decisions on the basis if emotions.

My question is, why are you gambling with what seems like a large amount of money to you? Always gamble with a small amount of money that you can afford to lose. I think your bankroll management is very poor and you are also a bit inept at financial management.

Is there any point in avoiding a casino for losing a large amount of money in gambling? I would be in favor of avoiding gambling. After a large loss in gambling, you can avoid gambling for a certain period of time, it might be an effective step. Is there any guarantee that you will not face a large loss in the casino you have entered now?

The Op thinks he self excluded from that one casino where he lost the money, but at the same time, he said he has access to other casinos too. However, that is not self exclusion, he just flipped a coin and will soon experience all those things again. For self exclusion, a user has to detach from all the sites, and that can happen in two ways, either all the casinos stop working, or he has to make his mind strong enough that he never thinks of gambling again. The first option is impossible, and the second option is in his control. Now, if he wants, he can detach from it for a long period, but only if he can convince his mind and break free from the addiction.

[knuckey]

I decided to self-exclude when my gambling hopes failed. Maybe this looks like what you're experiencing. The reason why I have to be alone after I accept defeat in gambling is so that I can recover more easily. Usually, when I rely on friends when I experience bad luck, it will only burden them even though they never felt burdened. In my opinion, self-exclusion is necessary in certain circumstances, including gambling.

[JahriMeayer]

When emotions are getting higher, taking a step away from gambling is often wise decision rather than trying to recover loss. In my opinion, the length depends on your personality and it'll be differ from one person to another. If someone can feels that gambling is affecting their financial life or decision-making, then a longer exclusion periods can be helpful. But self-excluding from one casino is only a temporary solution because there are many other platforms available. So you just need to be careful, don't repeat the same mistake again whatever the platform is. For me, honestly i don't need such thing. I bet that i can afford to lose. so I don't need to worry about my money while sleeping or fall in troubles. If accidentally i lost big, then better to leave that place immediately and relax. Don't jump for recovery.

[passwordnow]

I don't need self exclude. So I think it's still a good option for me to have but I won't use it because I know myself better. Not glorifying how controlling myself is but, I know that with the bets that I am doing, I can manage things on my own. Although if I am desperate and trying to use it, maybe for a month is enough to survive and let go of my gambling urges at that period.
