In my opinion, to resist temptation, you have to give in to temptation but with awareness.
We know we can't resist, avoiding playing doesn't help, in fact it makes you want to play more.
Instead, playing in moderation and without exaggerating can satisfy your appetite.

Somehow I seriously doubt that you can satisfy your appetite if you gamble moderately. Is that even possible? This approach didn't help me much. On the contrary, I wanted to gamble even more. It's better to give up gambling completely if you've already developed a strong urge. And there's no need to even talk about addiction. It still hasn't gone away. Yes, it's become much smaller, but it still exists. Why does this happen? It's all about our mind. It remembers wonderful moments and wants to repeat them over and over again.

That sweet win. It's difficult to resist coming back and playing again after a big win. I agree with that. We want to taste that sweet memory of getting a very big multiplier that made us jump for joy.

Gambling is for those who have a strong mentality. To be able to control it, a gambler should be prepared for what's coming next, and he will be ready to accept the consequences. Easy to say but difficult to do. When you are in that moment, you will tell yourself this is the last deposit, but as long as you have money, the "last deposit" never ends. Gambling in moderation is not easy. We are battling against ourselves on what to decide next.
