I was just reading or following someone in Facebook and he is a former casino employees. And some of his followers are giving testimonies on the ill effects of gambling in their lives. But one confessions caught my attention when he mentioned that he got lucky in one casino and just betting for a less than a dollar and then he hits the jackpot and won big.
And he says that he lives near a casino and so what he does is that he requested to be ban from entering or self inclusion so that he will prevent himself from turning into addicts because he have seen his friends or families becoming addicted to it.
So my question, are you willing to go to this length for self inclusion because you are afraid that you will want to comeback to a casino and have the feeling of winning the jackpot and then become what others experiencing beginners luck and become addicted in the end?
Self exclusion at casinos can actually be a very powerful tool to help people stop gambling addiction and should really be mandatory on all gambling sites. It's even better when they give super long options like 5 years instead of maxing out at shorter timeframes like 6 months. Gamblers can sometimes use sites interchangeable, especially since a lot of the functionality is the same these days, however they can also grow attach to specific features and prefer certain sites that they've grown comfortable with over time. If you prevent a gambler going to their favorite spot, you might be able to break the habit long enough or create a distraction that allows them to rethink their plans for the day.
