Betting limit should be encouraged.

In as much most football bettors could not control themselves in succumbing to responsible gambling and therefore subject themselves to financial discipline, I think what the betting authorities should do is to inculcate betting limitation just as they introduce self exclusion on their platforms. With this betting limitation, once a bettor reaches his betting limit as specified by him, he should be locked out with or without noticification.

I agree with your suggestion that betting authorities should encourage and promote responsible gambling practices. Implementing betting limitations could indeed be a helpful tool in managing one's gambling habits and finances.

By allowing bettors to set their own betting limits, they would have more control over their gambling activities. Once they reach their pre-determined limit, the system could lock them out automatically, preventing further bets until the limit resets. This mechanism could be effective in preventing impulsive and excessive betting behaviors.

Additionally, it's essential for betting platforms to provide clear and prominent notifications and reminders to users when they approach or exceed their limits. This helps to raise awareness and encourage responsible gambling behavior.

It's worth noting that some betting platforms already offer such features, where users can set limits on their deposits, bets, or losses. However, it would be beneficial if these features became more standardized across different platforms, making them easily accessible and familiar to all users.

Moreover, educational initiatives about responsible gambling should be a priority for betting authorities. By raising awareness about the risks associated with gambling and providing resources for self-exclusion, counseling, and assistance for problem gambling, the industry can actively contribute to a safer gambling environment.

Overall, implementing betting limitations, along with clear notifications and education, would be a positive step to encourage responsible gambling and help users maintain financial discipline.
