1. Good and user friendly design.
This is the reason I am still using one gambling site based in UK, it has very easy design that even newbies can understand, but I do not like the site because it is only accept fiat and not accepting cryptocurrencies at all.

Casinos need to earn profits, but it is not necessary to use any methods that harm players. There are several ways to approach this issue, - They allow people to socialize and interact with other players, thus making the gaming experience more exciting
- They offer a number of bonuses and rewards to players
- They make sure that the games they offer are engaging and entertaining, so players won’t get bored after playing a few rounds
- They allow players to bet with different types of currencies
- They have customer support teams that are available 24/7, so players can get help whenever they need it
You have mentioned many of them, the only one that comes into my mind after all you have mentioned is deposit and withdrawal method, if there are available deposit and withdrawal method for people that have known the gambling site to have good reputation, they will register. That is why I like cryptocurrencies, they offer easier deposit and withdrawal.

Vast range of games so the one who wants to explore new will keep trying so the house gets the benefits from the exploring nature of a human?!... I am not sure about the tricks done by a casino traps us from not leaving them because only we are in control of our decision when it comes to online casino so we can just choose to leave at anytime if we want but the greediness of us keep ourselves to chase something.

These 3 things that you've mentioned are really common psychological tricks that casinos do. However, I think that the first one which is "Enticing Design" isn't really about a psychological trick at all since all businesses/establishment are somehow has a great interior design however Casinos are more of on the luxurious side as their target are huge paying customers or gamblers.

I think one of psychological tricks that should be also added are bonuses and membership. As these things usually attracts more gamblers to come back and continue gambling for a long time due to the bonuses and rewards that they could get on their membership at a casino.
