Interesting one here and I side with the gambling addict I am afraid.

Bookies introduced the self exclusion as part of their duty of care towards addicts. Whats the point in having it if they then just overlook it when you want to start betting again. There is an element of personal responsibility for sure - but here you have a man who said "help, I cant control my betting" and they ignored their own policies and let him open an account again.
