Because you just don't follow through. Why haven't you gotten yourself banned from the casinos yet? Why do you even still have access to online banking or e-wallets that you can Deposit in Online Casinos?


You're simply keeping all your options open because you want to keep gambling. As soon as you have money in your fingers again, you'll do the same thing again. If you really want to stop, then you have to block your own access to gambling. There are options, why don't you use them?

The problem is that money is there and always will be, but I can't accept defeat and I don't have a limit. Then I left with 400 minus, played online at stake and wiped out 1500 in the Live Casino in 40 minutes. You're right, the best thing would be an Oasis ban, but then I can't play anything. I wouldn't be able to play anything as an example. I have to find hobbies that are fun and don't cost a fortune, I know one player always says that. It's hard to stop at the moment, I wish I could.

Incidentally, I have deleted my email and deleted myself from almost all casinos. So that's a start. It was the emails that always got me going. I wish I wasn't such an idiot.

You say it yourself, you don't WANT to stop. But then it's your own fault and the result will always be the same. So what's it all about for you? This topic would be better off in the grumpy corner because you're just complaining about being so unlucky.


As long as you don't want to stop, you'll just keep losing, it's as simple as that.

but I'm sure you've only deleted them from the ones you don't want to gamble with at stake anyway?

I'm telling you, as long as you don't take every opportunity to play without too much effort, you'll keep going down this road, not because you want to but because the addiction will push you to do so in the end, you'll always find a way if you want to play, we don't have to imagine anything, but you can make it as difficult as possible for yourself


It doesn't matter how much money you earn or own in the end it will all be gone there is no upper limit more money just means higher bets even more trouble and even more frustration you have to make a hard cut and first regain control over the impulsive Risk-taking that is usually deliberately exploited by the casinos

What do you do when you're not gambling? Gambling is not going to be your only pleasure, is it? You have to find something that brings you more in the long term than stupid gambling - that's the only way you'll manage not to gamble at all or to gamble in a controlled manner in the future

Seriously now. You wrote here that you are totally exhausted and want to stop playing. You got a lot of encouragement and good tips here. But you didn't put any of it into practice. And now you're writing that you don't really want to stop because you'd have to look for other hobbies? That's a bit cheeky towards those who really wanted to help you here!


Why don't you spare many others here from taking the time to help you in the future and put your "whining" back in the whining corner, where you've been busy writing all these months?

I understand what you're trying to say, but don't you think it's a bit harsh? Maybe it's just the addiction talking I think any normal person who is free of addiction would trade playing for a pack of 6 nuggets

I've been following the post the whole time; I don't find such statements harsh.


I worked in the clinical field of addiction medicine for a long time; in my experience, people only stop when they are at the end of their personal, emotional and physical rope - and by that I really mean at the end - people tend to leave themselves open to 'emergency swallows', be it for the sake of addiction or the good feeling of always having something in their back pocket.

In the case of the person who created TE, I have the impression that as long as money is available in any form, people will gamble - in whatever way they can.

In my opinion, the TE creator will continue to gamble for a very long time, acceptance is one thing, his own head is another.

I agree with you. I fell off the wagon again in two days, leaving 1300 euros in the gambling hall plus my sports betting losses of just under 5000 and online casino losses of 280. Plus the casino losses of around 600 euros. It's like a vicious circle, the only solution now is to get myself banned. I have blocked everything. It's this constant losing that makes me grumpy, not necessarily the money but constantly going out as a loser. I'm sure it will be hard to stop playing now.

Block all your e-wallets, online banking and add yourself to the OASIS Blacklist, done.

Nevertheless, it is questionable whether you have left any back doors open, it is difficult to judge... the Curacao cliques are available 24/7.


Hope it works for you this time

People, this is difficult, it's not that easy going, you also use other things
So you can't just block online banking or psc.

In any case, everyone has their own methods of coping with it
One person stops smoking from one day to the next, another smokes fewer or lighter cigarettes until he stops completely

Many roads lead to Rome
Just because one thing helps you doesn't mean it
Help others.
It sometimes takes time to find your mojo, but that's the thing
You should talk to the right people about it to get professional input from somewhere, you know.

Just Oasis lock and rely on yourself alone
It's almost impossible to deal with it that way
Be in the Oasis thread later and count the days ^^

That's right. Without online banking it really sucks. You have to go to the counter for every transfer or have someone else do it for you. If you have a girlfriend/wife, then it doesn't matter, but if you're alone and don't trust anyone else with your problems, then it's really hard to get by without it. I have someone in my circle of friends who doesn't have one and always asks me for money transfers. It's annoying, but that's not really my point. It's more about feeling like a child. You're an adult and begging for something like that can be really humiliating.
