if its a fortune lounge casino you can have them transfer some of it to there other sister casinos ,
i wonder if other casinos would do the same ?? also maybe put a note on your desk top saying please dont give in to temptation![]()

Thanks guys, hopefully I can keep my will strong and keep my hands out of the cookie jar! I've plumped for rocky's suggestion....I have a post it note on the monitor saying "Don't be an Idiot!" for the upcoming period.
Also, it's paying for a holiday and contributing towards a new car next year, so a bit of visualisation might e useful too!
Big thanks again!
What about asking someone you trust to change the password so you cant login?
Uninstall never works for me personally because it takes about 5 minutes to download and install it again.![]()
Who took my money ??
AussieGambler21 (19th August 2009)
I'm holding out on temtation right now. I have $1,000 waiting to be processed to my bank. But of course it's the same place I ALWAYS HAVE PROBLEMS WITH!!! They denied my bank statement (even tho I have had playments from them before, I had to resend)So I have to hold out longer than normal until I can get a utility bill from my husband, he's been at work all day.
Sooooo anyway...what I did (since the money was there early yesterday morning and I'm here all day alone) is make a list of things we need and SHOW my husband with the cost of those items. The items I listed came up to about $600 (main things are school clothes for daughter, and new sneakers for the whole family, and a Wii that I have been DYING to get) and giving my husband $200 doesn't leave me much.
I also took a nap today, but that only blew about an hour of the day...so I just pretend in my head I have no money to play and think about all the things we need/want....and the most important not having my husband have that look on his face when I do play back the money...This time I'm not touching it outta spitehe told me, "you will play it all back"
Christmas is coming fast!!!
All RTG casinos have the ability to freeze a transaction if requested. Once frozen, there is nothing you can do. Of course, it is up to the operator to do this or not.

Well, whilst waiting to be paid by some RTG's, I read Dante's "Divine Comedy" from start to finish - then take a tour round the world... In a balloon. With my mate Phileas Fogg.
The best idea read on here was a chap who changed his password to a big long string of numbers and letters. Printed it off - then drove 40 miles to a storage place where he left it until his withdrawal had cleared.
Drastic, but effective I should imagine.
I have a rather more novel way of coping with this dilemma in that I'm simply unable to find the withdraw button in the first place. Ever. Seriously... It's tragic.
At least I never have to worry about waiting...

My best advice is to fill your mind with something else than gambling. If you are just sitting there surfing or whatever on your PC it is way to easy to just log in and reverse a little bit of the withdrawal for a little bit of action. Then you have it going...
So my best advice would be:
1. Do something else.
2. NEVER reverse even a dollar from a withdrawal
3. Ask for the withdrawal to be flushed, some casinos don't allow this, play at the casinos that do![]()
Yes, that idea is genius IMO. I'm gonna try it, maybe not drive that far, but something like that. I use to make up a password and let my husband choose two or three numbers. Turns out you guys are way too easy. Just the slightest hint of something you want, and you sing like a canary
OP, you can do it! We can make you accountable for it if you want. Commit to posting everyday on what you are doing not to reverse. We will anxiously await![]()
