Is this actually a strategy to overcome this? I doubt it. I have seen several times where gamblers rush to withdraw their winning in the first minutes and then /make a deposit in the next minute. When it comes to losing huge win to gambling, it is attributed to gambler inability to control his habit and allow emotion to control them. For gambler who can manage and control emotions are not easily tempted with the money in their balance. Although, leaving the money in your wallet would easily tempt one to gamble but having emotional control would discipline one regardless of whether they leave money in wallet or withdraw it.
