I agree that the self-exclusion function is a very useful tool and a way for a person to fight against his passion for gambling, which can already turn into gambling addiction at the stage of mental illness. Those casino devs who include this function in their algorithms act correctly and responsibly, since sometimes this function works more or less effectively. But many gamblers, even when this function is turned on, still have an obsessive thought in their brains about how to quickly start playing again when the exception ends. It seems to me that it is important for people close to the player during such periods to distract the player as much as possible with various conversations on other topics or requests to do something useful. Then the brain automatically switches to other thoughts. And it will become easier for the player.
The self-exclusion feature can be useful for someone who wants to avoid gambling. But if they still want to gamble, that won't work and they will just keep going back to the casino to gamble. Many gamblers still seem to have difficulty controlling themselves to stay away from gambling because gambling really tempts them to return to gambling. This is why when playing gambling, we have to be very careful and have strong self-control so that when we activate self-control, we can do it well. We can stay away from gambling for a while and not return to gambling.
