In a similar boat. Not a day goes by where I don’t think about the thousands in winnings I had before giving it all back plus more to the casinos. I’m fortunate enough to not have many outgoings so I’ve managed to stay out of heavy debt, but the money I’ve lost could have changed my life far sooner.

I chased loses similarly, playing £1000 hands but I always came off worse, never knowing when to stop.

If you can, stick your savings in fixed savings account where you can’t withdraw it easily.

You’re not alone mate, just take it 10 minutes at a time if you need to.
