The first thing you have to do is sit down and figure out whether you actually have a gambling problem or not. Since you admit to losing several hundred dollars at a single session, and it distressed you at the time, maybe pulling up was not a stupid or irrational thing to do. It sounds to me like you might have done yourself a favor.
Although the numbers and scope of problem gambling tend to be exaggerated by parties who have a vested interest in selling the cure, the fact remains that there are people who can't control themselves when it comes to gambling, and can keep going until they get hurt, or, worse, hurt the people around them.
So by all means you should consult a knowledgeable professional who deals with the psychology of gambling, and get a reliable professional opinion.
If you don't actually have a gambling problem, then that opinion might be the basis to reinstate you. Even if you retain a lawyer to get back on the casinos active list, you're going to have to give that lawyer something to work with.
Good luck
I think, based on looking at the Attorney General's page regarding California's Self-Exclusion program, that it would depend on whether the Casino is a Tribal Casino or not. If it's not a Tribal Casino, then my understanding is they have to give you back the money that you lost, but that there isn't any sort liability beyond that. Effective July 24, 2019 the West Virginia Lottery Security Table Games offices located within each WV Casino may process Statewide Self-Exclusion requests made in person at the casino. With a total of 5 land-based casinos in West Virginia (see table below), the new gambling regulation allows for each land-based casino to apply for a single online casino license, which permits them to have up to 3 casinos skins. This means there will be a total of 15 online casinos in the state of West Virginia. Any individual who is prohibited from wagering pursuant to: (1) any self-exclusion list or a casino or Commission exclusion list; (2) any employee of the Commission; or (3) a licensed sports pool operator or any of its employees placing a wager with that sports pool operator in violation of W.Va. Code ยงยง29-22D-1 et seq.
