Id say find a book or books about using affirmations to get rid of ur addiction. I used to be a drug head and a smoker all thru high school and college and always tried to quit but I always came back. I found a book about doing affirmation exercises (basically like reprograming ur head) and it helped me quit ciggarettes and drugs.

Thanks demon, I will definitely try that. I understand that there are MANY individuals with similar problems, but mine is unique in the fact that I never intend to play blackjack on my way to the casino;infact, it is quite the opposite. I just seem to repeatedly find myself playing BJ while waiting for a seat to open up, going to/from the bathroom, etc. Does this situation come up with others? And why BJ and not other games such as roulette or craps? Hopefully someone can help me make some sense of all this. THANKS

not too sure if this would work becuase at the casino i play at, when you do it you cannot enter the casino....a friend of mines father had a bad gambling problem and he had himself barred from the casino, i am wondering if you could bar yourself from the pit only, but allow yourself to enter the poker room, i dont really see a casino allowing this but its a suggestion

i am so GLAD i read this post.

i am a 6-12 to 15-30 player and NEVER play black jack unless im on vacation in vegas. last night on the way through the casino to the poker room, i walked up to a 25$ blackjack table and slapped a $500 bet down. long story short i walked out with $6500.

i hope to god that i have the discipline from now on to not try and make that easy buck again [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

There is nothing wrong with playing BJ every once in a while as form of entertainment. I have a problem because I cannot seem to stop when I start, even when I am winning big. Its all good as long as you have it under control.
