I don't think the casino will be added that feature in the members account because they don't care about limiting the money to be used in gambling. When people decide to play gambling, they need to know about how to limit their money so they can avoid the loss of their money. They can also remember that they need to control themselves while they are playing gambling because the casino or gambling website don't want to know about that. The gambling site only knows that they can make money from the gamblers.

I doubt if online casinos would even think about having a limiting feature. The more and longer people stay in the platform the more they earn. Escaping from stress, and doing things that you enjoy the most is a good way to relax and relieve stress for a while. However, too much of everything also causes another problem which is addiction. Moderation must be applied to all things.

It's double edge sword here, and self-inclusion most of the time doesn't work here. Gambler just don't voluntarily says "I'm quitting" and casinos are not going to deny them playing as well. The best thing you can as a gambler is to have control of yourself. Or unless the gambler himself was motivated by financial problems, i.e losing job, no money to play in a casino. And if we don't want to enter that territory, then avoid excessive and aggressive gambling.

It's a bad habit of mine that I cannot stop.
Whenever I win something even just a little bit of the bet I cannot stop being aggressive and trying to bet more thinking luck is on my side.

Excitement is also there of course, when combined the next decision will go wrong.
Trying to control it but I guess that is just pure emotion of being happy for having a win.

I doubt any gambling house will come forward to implement such hour restrictions because it will deeply impact their core business in this highly competitive times and due to covid19 outbreak and its isolation requirements, gambling houses are reaching their new highs in terms of revenue generations hence they may not prefer to get disturbed during their peak times.

Moreover, a gambling should feel their own responsibilities to restrict themselves. I guess every gambling house will say the same thing if you ask about adding such restricting features. In my country, there is no restrictions about smoking and alcohol consumption which is left to individuals like if they care their own health then they should limit themselves. When government itself working this way, how we can expect a business corporate to care about their users.

Yup, while I find the idea with good intention. I don't believe this even comes to the mind of the casino owners. They benefit from gambling addicts. They wouldn't want to lose their customers. They are the one who benefits from gamblers that spends hours and days inside their establishment. They also believe that they are not responsible for the lost of the players, the players itself are responsible for their own lost. Business owners are greedy animals, they won't care about other as long as they benefit from them. This idea can be used individually by the gamblers.

what about those gambling site that offers big bonuses or money back ? aside from it they also have a warning before a gambler enter and play plus they also support listening to gamblers problem if ever the gambler decided to ban himself for some period of time and many more ,   . this kind of gambling sites do also care too to thier costumers more than they care about money but i think most gambling sites wont do this treatment  so dont label that all gambling site are greedy mate .

Even if gambling houses will be adding such limiting feature, I believe gamblers will start abusing it by having multiple account or by changing IP addresses or by holding accounts in multiple gambling houses. I guess until gamblers do have a strong will about restricting themselves, no one could save them from addictions. I guess only gamblers need to work on such limiting thing and definitely not the houses.

Escaping from stress, and doing things that you enjoy the most is a good way to relax and relieve stress for a while.
For these things alone, people are thinking about gambling and other entertainments. But, unfortunately your suggestion is also a valid one. We need gambling for relaxing and again to escape from addictions, again we need another level of relaxation to skip addictions.

Moderation must be applied to all things
It will be possible only when gamblers realize. But, I agree with OP at least for finding time to realize, we must work on having a limiting feature in gambling houses.

Why should we put limiting features? Wouldn't it defeat the purpose of entertainment, if you are in a stable mind condition in the first place then that means that you can stop whenever you want, this is a paradoxical solution for a simple problem in my opinion. If you put your self on the shoes of a gambling entrepreneur, would you want your customers to stop playing when the condition is that you will get less revenue for your business? If the answer to that is yes then that means no one is going to do it, besides that is how they earn a lot by playing a lot means they are getting more revenue and they are sane enough not to do it.

I am quoting this one because this takes the cake.
Casinos have nothing to do to control or limit our excitement.

We are the ones who need to adjust and not them.

Putting a limit is totally useless. It will just result in a much more aggressive approach when doing gambling.

If we are in stable conditions, of course, we can control ourselves without a problem. I am sure everybody can do that, but when we are high intention or high stress, many of us have lost control of ourselves. That happens too in the gambling games which many of gamblers lose themselves.

The casino will not be related to such conditions because that is totally related to ourselves. We need to have a responsibility with ourselves no matter if we are too excited or not. The only thing that we need to have is we can set how long we can playing gambling, and you can use your phone and set the alarm so you can know that your time is up, and you need to stop gambling as soon as possible. It's about how you control yourself, and that is not the duty of the house.

No more Rekt and Bust
Over excitement is the kill shot for many gamblers, not every gambler can control his limits. The online businesses have such downsides, especially in the gambling-related platforms. Some gambling sites offer a time limit function to prevent over gambling and this feature is necessary for protecting their long term interest in case of someone sues the company for attracting him. Such cases are popular in the first world countries.

When your mind at stable state, you may assume like you have all the control over yourself. But when you are too excited with your adrenaline triggered, your assumptions definitely go upside down. This is the simple reason why we do come across lots of addicts everywhere. Yes, not just in gambling but with any other activities, which makes you feel like too excited or too aggressive may end up making you an addict.

When an activity is capable of making you feel like a child (due to rush-up/emotional stir-up), you must need an external help to limit you.

Gambling is capable of enabling you to time-travel. Yes, you will forget all your stress of your family problems and your work pressures. So, get back to your time of present, you must need some limiting feature in terms of hours. It can be from a mobile alarm or a friendly warning from family members but a perfectly working one should be what that casino itself not letting you to continue, agree?

Limiting feature may not be needed for a physical casino as you cannot stay there all the day but definitely needed for online houses.

I believe this is time for demanding such limiting feature from the all our crypto gambling houses. This may not work in their favor hence we cannot expect them to agree on hearing such a demand on first time itself. But, when gamblers start supporting a house with such a feature, other houses may start implementing it.

A change for good cause may start only when we voice out!

Think about talking to your gambling houses not just for you but for all other fellow gamblers who never realize their addictions.

Every addicted gamblers never think that way because they don't even care about their future. That seemed to be a continuous disease that kills everybody's lives, putting them into financial struggles due to gambling. Those factors brought every addicted person into bondage which cannot be torn out, that's how it works in may ways. However, if we're knowledgeable and knows how to control yourselves I believed it was just a matter of emotional management as well.

What OP has come up with would be very difficult to make because how would a casino make a gambler stop? Would it be fair?

You say that they shouldn't allow him to continue but what if he's during a winning streak? He'd be able to sue the casino for stopping him from winning more.
Also it wouldn't be fair to set time limits because what would they be? 6 hours? 4 hours? How would you find the best option between allowing people to have enough fun but not too much of it?

Are you talking about self-inclusions?

The only drawback I see with this self-inclusions is that most of the crypto related gambling websites will let you create an anonymous account and then you can play. But as far as I can remember, Nitrogensports and Bitdice has this on their TOS but I don't know how strict it is being implemented on their end.

Maybe the keyword you are looking for is "Self-inclusion".

You own the pen
When I was young, where we live before, I saw people doing drugs before going to play gambling, this has made the worst impact on their mind where they can no longer control their sense of activity. they always lose, most of the reasons are they bet double after they lost the first play. it continues until they have no money left in their pocket. Most of the gambling den in our place offers those kinds of things before you play gambling because the result is good to them. whenever the person gets some winning streaks, he keeps betting until he loses it all and the same for the one who always loses on betting when they are high on drugs, they can no longer get away with it. That's why people with the right mind will not take one step into gambling den because they fear that they might not get out as their usual self.

I do agree that sometimes a limit is necessary. But those who want could easily cheat the system: just go to another online casino and continue the session. Smiley So a limit could be helpful as long as it's not mandatory to limit yourself. There are plenty of great websites out there so there's always a way to evade the limit.

This would also affect casino owners. If you implement a limit, all your players willing to cheat the limit will move to another casino owner's pockets. Cheesy

Bitcoin = Financial freedom
In the past we had a thread here about how to temporarily block your gambling site's account and stay away from it for a while which might be helpful for what OP is suggesting.Forgot the keywords, if I get to know I will link the thread here.

Doing anything without limits is addiction and it can be fit with any activity in the world and it is more common in the gambling field since money involved here.

Why do you want the limiting feature to exist or be applied on the gambling site itself, if that means it is included in the internal rather than external. After all, when you have control of a stable mind, it is very possible for you to stop even though your adrenaline was previously triggered and the assumptions turned upside down and I admit that sometimes it happens, but actually when you are able to maintain a stable mindset at the same time also you can realize the time to stop or continue, so in this case the limitation or self-limitation arises from internal and not external. Apart from that, one thing that I think is wrong is about gambling which can forget all stress, it is something that is very wrong I guess.

Well for some gambling isn't just for fun, some made the gambling a way of living not just to escape from what is in the reality. For me it is more about on being entertained along with risking and testing my fortune with a small amount of money, you know these 2 matters in online gambling. However things gets different when you are doing it physically, like for example you are playing with your friends you'll see that it is not about money or winning, it is about the fun that you guys are together.

I think what you are asking can be classified as “nice to have” in many entertainment things.Looks like an option which looks a lot like the “nice to have” in recruitment managers which mean is not of an utmost importance.

I think that is the reason why at least casinos never implemented this by a big margin.There are very few of them who used to have such option but I don’t know if they have it anymore.
