I think these tips are really helpful, but they can't help me quit gambling in the best way. If you are a person who has a lot of c, trying not to think about gambling is impossible, so many people will relapse and continue to gamble again. The best way to get rid of this addiction, try to fit in your free time. This makes you busy and doesn't think about it.
What if you change your free time by looking for a useful job and activity that can keep you entertained. I think that way you can forget something about gambling. Indeed, people who are addicted will continue to think about it but if every day you do a useful activity it will give good results.

actually the hardest challenge when going to change a bad activity is to fight the ego and lust for yourself because of addiction or being a sign addict someone can not hold back his lust.
Now I've been waiting for feedbacks who can verify the OP's solution on quitting 😂. I'm far more interested on hearing those statements from ex-gamblers who likely visits this discussions for killing time now.
And still waiting for me to get some feedback regarding on getting a girl that can handle your money to the best that she can. Possibilities that this may not be effective are still a fact. 😛

Quitting is easy if you want to achieve something, but never easy if you want to stop doing what you always do and what you always wanted to do. This is what you called addiction, and we all know that its really hard to over come. Is this the end? Is there any cure? Let me help you.
1.) if you really want to quit, you should WANT it. You should be serious about it and not play around. Most people failed to change because they didnt take quitting seriously.
2.) Have a stone hard mindset. Picture yourself to the person you want to be. The old person who doesnt need that things in order to be happy. Always think about the future results you will become.
3.) Be faithful on what you are doing. Cheating is not an option. Dont be fooled on peer pressure or the callings of slot machine. Learn how to have self dicipline. Focus on your goal and have a blindfold if needed.
4.) If you already strengthen your inner self, the next steps is already easy for you. You see, yourself is the best enemy you have and we should start changing you by the way you think. Next is, have other things to do that can make you busy. Start trading or having new business. You will soon realize that the essense of the money you lost in gambling.
5.) never to try it again. People are also malleable in nature and even you didnt do it for years, once you tasted it again, you will turn back to the same addict person you want to get rid of. We have a deep caravings for it psychologically or what you called cravings by our subconscious minds that once triggered, can never be stopped.
Lastly, give me merits if this tips help you. Nah. Just kidding. I just want to write a book someday and i need some inspiration. Gambling is fun though.

Honestly, all these points will not work for a chronic gambler they will deny that they are losing and that they need help, actually, they need people around them to overcome gambling, and one professional or experts who can study his behavior type and create a customized healing process, a gambler can read all kinds of stuff about how to stop, but after finishing he'll just forget all about it.
Great tips OP. I must say, #3 is my favorite. 
3.) Be faithful on what you are doing. Cheating is not an option. Dont be fooled on peer pressure or the callings of slot machine. Learn how to have self dicipline. Focus on your goal and have a blindfold if needed.
Especially the second sentence. It can be used in relationship advice too. On a more serious note, cheating must not be an option. Like ever. You're cheating on yourself, first of all. And after realizing that, there might be the feeling of regret and the thoughts of "If only..." Remember that regret is always last. Better make a move now before it's already too late. 
Quiting gambling is not easy, most of the gambler addicts failed to on these things because their mind are already corruptes by the casinos. We should not allow ourselves to go beyond on this point, quit as early as you can. Yes gambling is fun, but it can also be a reason of your loneliness and depression.
Most gamblers this are the problems how to quit, because they always think of winning. But you should know how to control yourself so that it can escape of being addicted. Gambling gives joy, but if you will already addicted it can destroy yourself. So what the OP suggests can be a good tip for every gambler who want to quit gambling. Although it is hard, they need to do step by step, and if it's necessary, they can ask for other people helps. Don't be shy or feels not good to tells other people about your gambling habit because that is what we need to do if we need them to help us. I am sure that if they are really concerned about us, they will help us without have too many questions about how we could get into gambling.

You know what they say about bad habits "bad habits die hard" simply interpreted as quitting isn't easy!
If it were so easy people would not be having gambling addiction problems but with the few points listed in the IP they can help in the process of quitting.
They do not say easy, they have and give input to quit which of course it will not be easy to do and requires a great struggle to fight habits because of their addiction in gambling. They are aware that addiction is a habit that is difficult to eliminate, because it is therefore necessary for input to those who want to quit. I know it will not be easy and we will not be able to fully help them to stop, because what can counteract the habit of gambling addiction is themselves by changing their mindset in a more positive direction. If it were so easy people would not be having gambling addiction problems but with the few points listed in the IP they can help in the process of quitting.
What about seeking professional help?
For professional help, I think it is better to ask therapists or medical specialists for gambling cases. I am not sure to look for professional help from reading articles or people's suggestion in this forum since every individual has a different case background.
I can guarantee that there are people who've tried all your suggestions, yet they're unable to quit gambling.
OP seems just to share tips for not addicted gamblers or people who still can think realistically in playing gambling. And of course, not all people can success to quit only by reading the suggestions. They need attention from others such as their families, and OP didn't tell about it yet.
I would also suggest adding some resources, so people can look into finding professional help.
I assume it only based on OP's point of view or it is his own opinion. That's why no need for some sources.

Some people really have no other option than go into therapy to quit their addictions, whether it's gambling, drugs or anything else.

I think it would be best to seek professional help if you really want to quit gambling instead of trying to do it on you own because there’s a tendency that you will still go back to your old habits, you got addicted for the reason that you can’t control you greed, emotions or whatever thus it would be very difficult to stop yourself by your own unlike if you ask professional help and undergo rehabilitation then you are obliged to really stop and they have activities that will help divert your attention on different things.
which in result you will still play in the end of the road.Quiting isn't really that simple that's why you should be serious and sensible enough
to forseen on things that might possibly happen ahead if you do tend to continue further of your addiction.

These tips are very useful, thank you. I hope I'll be able to help those people who cannot stop and quit gambling. I know lots of them.
I really do agree with the OP, that no one can change someone but himself alone. His way of thinking about things and his goals in the future will help him from quitting gambling. If he only realized that gambling is not really helpful although sometimes it is, he'll be able to pull himself together and stop this addiction to start a new life. Self-discipline is a must, not just in gambling but in all things.
By the way very informative OP, I know you'll be a good writer someday, keep it up.
