I managed 7 months free of slot machines and temptation but past two weeks I wasted a lot of money over two brings periods in 2 days over 2 weeks. Only a few hours. I looked for triggers and I have been trying to pay off a holiday. I book hotels pay later and leave myself with only money for bills and work no spare cash. I worry the pressure of cost of living and affording holidays is hard. Basically my wage has risen but not as much as bills have. So holidays are hard now. I decided to can do my holiday in august for now and maybe rebook it. In Google it says you have to look at triggers. When I use to have free cash sitting I would gamble it though.

I have self excluded have gambling blocks on with bank but sadly sites offer other ways to deposit. Anybody got any tips? I thought I just had one bad day but this happened for 2nd week. I had previously used walking and watching movies as a distraction which worked well but I have went off course and lost interest in both past 2 weeks.

If I understand correctly, you are 1. just bored, 2. you want to make money in the casino.

In the first case, you're not alone... I get bored, too. And I've learned to live with it.
In the second case, you're not alone either. The casino catches a lot of people wanting to make money... But it's impossible. Why do impossible things?
