Our forum is also characterized by the fact that everyone can share their concerns and "needs" here and then we shouldn't start rejecting them. Everyone has a different background and wealth of experience and so there may be threads that seem strange at first glance. Upola said it well, just ignore it and think for yourself. The user only registered yesterday and enjoys puppy protection, so to speak

No one can really help you, this is how the gambling trigger works and the desire for more is pre-programmed. At this point, some people have the necessary self-control to stop and others do not.

Basically, there is no point in making an agreement with the casino, as the money will probably just end up back where it came from.

Just set yourself a goal and pay out and then play with €200 as you wrote.

Personally, when I had bigger wins, I always paid out amount X (balance: €150 - win: €2000) and then continued to play with the money that was originally still on the balance and then always left.

Your problem is actually not unknown to me... The start in the casino/gambling halls was usually great but then the greed for more and more came and a bit of alcohol was often involved too ...

I got into the habit of putting all the money I could and wanted to spend in my right pocket (trousers, jacket), the wins or the plus I put in my left pocket when I changed the machine or the gaming table...

It certainly takes discipline, the first few times were extremely difficult for me to keep control...

Playing cash game Poker in the casinos helped me a lot to strengthen my discipline so that I didn't slip up any more

(There is a maximum buy-in for cash game tables in the casinos)

@ Ceset:

Welcome to GJ.

To your actual question: I think every gambler knows what it's like to gamble away a nice win. It hurts, it's disgusting. Now it's up to you to learn from it.
There have already been many good tips here (left pocket win, right pocket accepted loss).

Just remember that in gambling, the Provider / casino usually wins. If you have reached a winning point, this is already beyond expectation. Just see it as "luck" and take it with you.

This brings us to the second issue: you can use the win to invite your wife to dinner and buy yourself a second cell phone. The wife checking chat messages is such a no-go! Either she trusts you or she doesn't. If you feel the same way, you can tell her directly.
If you think that checking chat messages is ok, I can't understand that, but then of course it's ok for you too

What's funny there? My wife checks my chat histories and stuff. It's risky. I don't want to Risk my family.

very interesting relationship. Wife thinks control is better than trust..husband doesn't want to risk family but gambles money at casino even though wife is completely against it....


Maybe you should set limits for yourself before you go gambling. You Deposit a maximum amount of xy & from a win of xy the session is over no matter how it goes. Of course, you have to be consistent if you want to take your win with you more often. Otherwise you need a second person to get you out of your tunnel if you are in the middle of gambling everything away again.

I have a casino budget that doesn't jeopardize our existence. I have set limits several times. Once I took 500 euros and I thought, if I can double that 500, I'll stop. In a few hours I was 1500 euros in the bag. What happened in the end? I gambled it all away again

Yes, I think the only solution is to take a friend with you, a work colleague who will talk to you. Maybe hold on to you or something, take you lightly by the arm and then lead you out. You can then promise him a commission on the win.

Are these real casinos with mandatory suits or casinos like the ones in Berlin with simple clothing like jeans and a shirt?

I'm also skeptical that you can program your head properly so that you always walk out with a win. And that you don't end up gambling it all away.

But the buddy who accompanies you then, if he's just standing there and isn't interested in it. Then that's probably noticeable?
I don't know how it works if someone is always standing behind you and watching.

In most casinos you can go in dressed as normal, only for the typical gentleman's games is it compulsory to wear a suit, but you can check this on the website of the respective casino.

You weren't satisfied with 1000... not with 1500 and even more dissatisfied with 0... maybe next time you'll think about this session so that it doesn't happen again

You can get stylish Gambler metal boxes from Amazon. Just take them with you on your next visit to the casino - but leave the key at home!
That way you can really secure your wins and won't be tempted to gamble it all away again.

This is how I do it: I secure a part of my +50% win (e.g. half).
I continue to play with the rest in a relaxed manner - either I save again at +50 % or I wait for +100 %.

Small safe wins > big losses. So it's better to put something aside early!

In most casinos you can go in regularly dressed, only for the typical gentleman games is it compulsory to wear a suit, but you can read about this on the website of the respective casino.

yes, the casino website actually says that you have to be dressed appropriately....



but the worst shit i've ever experienced, the casino was packed because another singer was singing in the casino in the evening, you really had to squeeze through the people in the casino to get ahead....

we were standing at the Roulette table, where there were several tables around, so there was also a table behind me, when i turned around i was amazed to see 3 young men fully dressed in work clothes with steel caps, shoes and company lettering on their work clothes... i was afraid that i would get dirty if i had to meander past them, so i don't understand that the casino is full of people and they let people in work clothes with steel-toed shoes into the casino so i've never seen anything like that:D


although i always walk around in a t-shirt myself, often with the gamblejoe t-shirt .... but for example when there's an event like that you put on something smart, maybe not necessarily a suit but as if you were going out to a disco, restaurant ect...

yes, it's a strange store, they probably don't care about anything as long as money is made

This is a really good idea for people who can't control themselves and are traveling alone... although I can immediately think of a few people who would either destroy this box or drive home - open the box and go back to gambling 😅
