Online Casinos in general: What would have to happen to stop ?

Good morning dear community,

i asked myself what would have to happen to stop gambling ?
A mega big win? Or no more fun?
Or complete loss of self?

I start times I think with me it would be a huge money win of eg 50,000 €.
Whether one stops then is the other thing.
It's just fun to gamble but earlier was more fun and wins available so is my feeling.

Now I am curious about you.

This year I was only a casual player, I stopped actively gambling when I collected a mountain of Debt years ago. 2022 I have made but good 10 000€ plus. Is not even a fifth of what I have gambled the last few years, but since 02.08.2022 I'm clean. I also cancelled my gambler bank account. Feels good.

5 seconds rule, no autostart, 1€ rule, RTP of under 90% and Deposit limit for all providers will probably make me stop eventually.

If at some point there really are no more alternatives, I will at least stop with the slots. It's supposed to be fun and it doesn't do that for me

Spent too much time gambling,
Money is one thing but time wasted is also a lot
Every gambler can find 10 reasons to stop gambling if he thinks about it for a few minutes.
Want to stop playing for a long time
At that time there was nothing, I mean really nothing
I am really grateful for oases that help to get away from it for those who want to.
But it is not a solution, but it helps to work on yourself because you can no longer go to the arcades online is also nix except those from malta and co

I do sports betting instead of playing slots, but have been doing so for almost 19 years and often just immoderately. Which at the end of the day is not good. Have now set a budget of 250 € per month and if I increase that, well, this also flows into my shares or the vacation Pot, if no it's just gone, does not hurt me and forces me to make my pick even better and not to bet on rabbit long jump on Madagascar.

Most players always claim that they will stop gambling when they reach their goal or "sum X".
In most cases, however, this only reinforces their gambling behavior, because if the goal is reached at some point, they will in most cases only look for new "goals" or challenges, be it just increasing the stakes, or even looking for a new game.

I think it is incredibly unhealthy to subconsciously set such goals while playing, because if you achieve it, it only leads to looking for new goals.

If you really want to stop gambling, then you should start right away, because the longer you wait for some event or sense of achievement, the gambling behavior is usually only reinforced by time.

The wins are addictive, not the losses. Therefore, I do not believe that after a big win is the end...

I guess everyone dreams of a win like that, at least I think so. Even if you decide to stop then I think it is at such a moment certainly something else because it is then really happened.


Yes, you're right, you should not play with such a goal or generally you should write off the money when you use it.

And it is so unlikely to win something like that. I just wonder what would happen then. Does one really stop or does one then play even more and more intense than before

And yes the wins that make addicted that is also what you think of first when you think of playing only the wins and not the other 100 times where the money just runs down.

You don't stop afterwards no matter how much you win you will always tell yourself how easy it was and in the end no matter what amount you win it will all be gone again with a decent plus out of your own pocket


Inevitably greed strikes there if you really want to stop you have to know from deep conviction that you have no added value from it and the very very most important you have to find alternatives with which you fill the gaps in the time where you would actually gamble

Everything else is wishful thinking for the vast majority of people

The losses you fade out as a gambler so or so gladly but 0.50 € win you still remember in 5 years

The most important thing about gambling is having fun. After that comes the overview of the numbers and the discipline.

If you think about quitting too often, you should quit. Not to be confused with creative breaks, just not gambling for a few weeks.

Long-term goals are nonsense in the field, because you have no influence on the machine and as everyone here has already written large wins rather anfixen than satisfy the Zocklust

So just have fun with the colorful pictures and maybe take something. Or just let it be, if the gambling is more stressful than fun.
