You already know that it is no good and hurting you.

So you can see that it is a problem.

Most of these machines are set to around 75-85% return.

If I give you 100% of my money, and you give me 75-85% of it back, it’s going to take a lot of time and effort before I start to profit from doing that… 😕

Stop yourself.

If you can’t stop, get help or self ban. (y)

You’ll thank yourself later! ;)

All you have to do is write a letter to the technical support of the room to close the entrance to the casino for the longest possible period of time, not 3 months, at least 5 years, without restrictions limiting possible losses ,if you need to win $ 4,000, and then stop playing at the casino, with a large I can probably say that you will turn your $4,000 debt into $8000

It's crazy, I would never invest in playing in a casino knowing that you lose more than you win.

I've made more than $1.000 playing poker in less than a month but i am slot degenerate addict, so when i won money i play slots and lose em all 😭
Btw i am not only playing slots online, i mostly play in land based casinos and i am more than $4.000 in debt because of stupid slots. (please note my monthly wage is about $450-500 because i live in small Eastern European country)
If i only just played poker i would cashed out $1.000 and at least i would have payed my credit card.
i play on GGPoker mostly and there is option to block live casino and casino games and i am not doing it because i hope i can win big fast money without sweating.
I dont know what to do i am feeling that i betrayed myself and the game of poker in which i am very passionate.
I work in small casino (slot club) as a cashier and when someone loses big amount of money i am advicing them to learn and play poker instead of slots (i guess i am ambassador of the game 😀) but i am negating myself when i can't control myself to not play slots.
Btw i started playing poker about 7 years ago when i was searching on google for games of luck that are more dependant on skill (at that time i was waking up and going to bed just for poker, even tho i am winning more money playing poker now for me my biggest achievement is from that age when i won and finished two times third and once 12th place in freerolls in the same night 4/4 ITM), at that time i was addicted to slots but poker helped me to not play slots for few years and even i looked at people playing slots as no brainers but now its different story (I've won as a joke $3.000 on slots with just $2 few months ago and that messed up my brain) because i play slots to win big money and pay my debt.
I lost my last $26 in GGPoker 1 hour ago playing slots instead of poker and i feel that there is not hope for me.
It is as some others said before, you need professional help. It looks like you can’t control yourself and I would assume that if you can’t control yourself you need to stop playing at all!

Hello bro, I understand you, it happened to me sometimes, I made money playing poker and when my bankroll went down a bit I would "recover" in roulette, all black!!!! Hahahaha but bad move, it's a vicious circle that always leads you to the same place to bankruptcy, it's hard to overcome it but when you're aware you can do it, you can block the casinos and when you're on tilt just move away a bit, believe me the casino won't pay the only the worst debts, choose yourself! good luck brother

Oh man !! Same thing happened to me many times. I build in poker and lose it all in the casino. Thousands at a time. Last one $8,350 in less than 2 hours about 3 months ago. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE between you and me is how. I lose my money in blackjack. See ? I'm in no position to give advice, but the SLOTS bro ???????
GO930 is right, you should get in touch with support, and try to only go play poker where there are no slots, avoid casinos sir...

Casino games never attracted me. They are 100% luck, specially slots. But I know what you are saying. For many years I used to spend my poker winnings in sports bets. But like you said, most sites offer the option to block yourself from casino/sports bets. And that's what I've done. I block my sports bets option in PS and bet365 (which were the sites I used more to make sports bets). I only play poker now. My advice is to you do the same thing, block the casino option. Like you said, poker is a game of skills. Casino and sports bets aren't and in the long run there's a high chance that you are going to lose money.
