The short answer

Minnesota has no statewide self-exclusion program. Tribal casinos are regulated by the tribes themselves and the compacts do not require self-exclusion, though many casinos (for example Mystic Lake) voluntarily offer their own property-level self-exclusion. First move: Contact each casino or card room you visit and sign that property's own exclusion agreement.

Is self-exclusion enough on its own in Minnesota?

Check which operators your exclusions cover in Minnesota. Separate exclusions can leave gaps, and unlicensed sites may not participate in state programs. The setup that holds is layered: self-exclusion, plus a ban inside each betting app you hold, plus a blocker that locks betting apps on your phone plus a block on gambling transactions at your bank.

Gambling across the Minnesota line?

A state program only binds operators licensed in that state. If you drive to a casino or bet on an app registered next door, you need that state's ban too.
