Gambling is addicting especially if you're lucky enough to win. But lets face the fact that is not going to be the case everytime we play thus we tend to lose and its up to us on how we control and limit ourselves to avoid further losses or worse become addicted.

I think not to gamble at all would be the solution if you are determine to get rid the gambling habit. It wont be easy at first but you will used to it if you diversify and focus yourself into other ativities.
