Popular Post ColourMeUp Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 On the 22nd Jan 2021 I decided to have a birthday punt on the slots, I won a few quid and decided to stop. Yesterday marked one year of being slot free. I've still been playing poker, few football bets now and then and having some sensible punts on crypto etc, but really happy with how the year went. Here's to hopefully another year of being slot free 5 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem has always been that they tilt me and i end up doing stupid amounts on table games afterwards. Hopefully you can say 2 years in 2023!!

I've seen mates do fortunes on the wheel, not good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the more kudos then mate. I tried with self exclusions, but that didn't work as you could always find someone else. I guess whilst you still have poker & footy the slots can take a back seat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, poker for me isn't a problem. Football accas are tilting when you lose but don't send me on the same raging tilt that a slot does. I think a big part of helping to stop playing slots was unsubbing to all the slots based youtube channels and thus not being exposed to the countless big wins I'd see and then not wanting to chase similar wins for myself. I also took a few months off from here which helped a bit as well. I won a huge chunk in poker which negated the need to gamble excessively on slots and sensibly used most of it to build my dream home and pay of all of my debts rather than punt it all off on slots. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
