Responsible Gaming

Gambling should be entertainment β€” never a way to make money.

🎯 Gambling Responsibly

Online gambling can be a fun form of entertainment, but it's important to approach it responsibly. Here are some guidelines to help you stay in control:

  • Set a budget β€” Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never chase losses.
  • Set time limits β€” Take regular breaks and don't let gambling consume your free time.
  • Don't gamble under the influence β€” Alcohol and drugs impair judgment.
  • Don't gamble when upset β€” Emotional states can lead to poor decisions.
  • Remember: the house always has an edge β€” Gambling is not a reliable way to make money.
  • Balance gambling with other activities β€” Maintain your hobbies, relationships, and responsibilities.

⚠️ Signs of Problem Gambling

You may have a gambling problem if you:

  • Spend more money or time gambling than you intended
  • Feel restless or irritable when trying to stop
  • Chase losses by gambling more to win back money
  • Lie to friends or family about your gambling
  • Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling
  • Neglect work, school, or family responsibilities
  • Feel anxious, depressed, or hopeless because of gambling
  • Think about gambling constantly

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
