    Best way to discipline yourself whilst withdrawals are processed

    Hi guys,

    Just thought I'd throw this up here and see if anyone has any novel or clever ways of disciplining themselves whilst waiting for a withdrawals.

    As we all know, many casinos have limits on withdrawals, and periods whilst a withdrawal is processed during which they can be reversed, and played again. My personal situation is that I've hit the monthly withdrawal limit for a casino, but hit a jackpot again with what was above that withdrawal limt.

    What I was hoping for was some tips on how to be cautious and not gamble away the amount that I've won. And I've tried sitting on my hands, it just doesn't cut it!

    That's one idea....though it would really mess with my work commitments, which also use the same computer!

    I'm thinking maybe doing all my work at the library, and locking the pc in the airing cupboard might be a plan.

    Don't just throw entire PC out the window. Just get a baseball bat and smash the monitor. That way you only need to buy a new monitor when the money come in.

    I've read here before that some uninstall the casino until their payment is processed. I have that problem too & always withdraw way less than intended, lol. I think I will try the uninstalling next time (if I have a next time, lol)

    I have a bad habit of reversing withdrawals and losing too - so lately I ask to have the withdrawal flushed so I can't touch it - plus it gets the money in my account a day quicker. Most casinos will do this, but there are a few who don't, if I happen to win at one who doesn't flush I either play somewhere else or find something else to do - I won't even go back into the casino I won at til I know the withdrawal can't be reversed.

    See the waiting is what kills it. If they payment processors were on the ball we would not have to play it back. Its simple either uninstall the software and delete the executable file because we can always install it back. Or not touching your computer for a day and watch TV or play a video game on your TV!. Talk on the telephone call RobWin he will tell you about the Monkey Balls video. Take a walk to your neighbors house, but make sure they are not gambling either. Just don't touch that computer now if you break it there is no way you'll find out if you got paid or not..right...

    Hiya: There are 2 basic ways to pass the time in an acceptable manner, imhop.

    1. Have a second Casino downloaded, with around $50-$100 in it. S......L.....o......w.......play this with the Min bet allowed. This means a much shorter play time, but more often. Log in, Play at bit, Log out. A few hours later, repeat, and before long your withdraw at the main casino is in your Bank acct.

    2. And/or, you need something else to do. Play a Video Game, go shopping, work in the yard, or best of all, "Make a promise, "To Yourself/loved one, what you won, and not to withdraw it, or reverse it".

    In either case, this is easier to do, if, You have a plan for the winnings. If not, make one. Save it, buy something, pay down a visa card, open a savings account at the bank, and so on. Having a commitment for the money that is on the way, helps you keep the money, "On the Way"........
    "All I want, is to WIN my fair share, and maybe just a teeny bit more"

    When I have a withdraw sitting there I put it out of my mind . I shut it off and don't consider it playable. I don't keep checking it either ....that's the worst thing you can do !
    Pick up a book or just get out of the house if you have to .
    Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
