Yes, no one is exempted when in terms to this kind of situation, that kind of gambling participation risk a lot not just the money but more on the health of the person, and we know he's not the only one who's leaning to him, he got his family and those children will be affected if he's not going to have that self-will to cure and to bring the balance back in him.
Hopefully with that statement, seeking for professionals will help him but that self-will is the one that he needs to really move him away from this problem with him.
He should have known he had a family to support so he wouldn't have taken such a risk. That is the same as taking risks beyond what he can afford so that he falls into the trap of gambling even though he is a professional who should have better abilities than other people. And if he really regrets it, he should really find a therapist who can help him get out of his gambling problem and not gamble for the rest of his life might be a good solution for him.
It is absolutely certain that the best solution to such a problem for such a player would be a complete refusal to further participate in any gambling. However, far from all people can do this, especially if problems have already begun in the family due to too much loss and due to the fact that the player began to use the family budget money necessary for the normal life of all family members, children, of course, first of all . If such a player could not stop playing before such gambling costs, then it will be very difficult to recover further. Because such an addiction is definitely already a disease, and without a doctor and medicines, most likely he will not be able to recover without outside help.

The break is really needed. At least in order to disperse the flow of blood to the brain and other reasons. Apparently he was simply absorbed by the excitement of this marathon. It's safe to say that he failed. But what was my surprise when he announced a new marathon today, and he set the conditions there that he would easily complete the last one. This is to make him feel confident again when he does it. And this will heal his moral wounds from the last marathon.
For those who are interested. The graph of how he went well and then fell into the abyss in 1 day:
Before and
After And it turns out that a gambling professional can also experience something as bad as that, which turns him into a gambling addict. This was really worrying for her, so she had to quickly seek help from the people around her, to help her out.
He forgot about rest, which everyone needed, not just those who gambled a lot. After all, resting would lower his emotions, especially since he had been gambling for so many hours that his emotions could peak at any time. If he could rest, maybe he wouldn't experience what he said, and he could still gamble with better self-control.
I would say that in the case of such results in the game of such a professional, you should not just take some kind of regular vacation for two weeks or a month. You need to take a much longer break from gambling. Well, like half a year. For half a year without gambling in a person’s life, a lot will change in any case, and a return to such professional activity will be more favorable and effective in terms of winnings, for the reason that during the specified period he will not completely forget his skills and abilities as a professional player and easily will restore them. But a long break will really "clean his brains" more effectively.
