Responsible Gaming Tips
Set a Budget and Stick to It
Before you start betting, decide how much money you can afford to lose and never exceed that amount. Treat betting as entertainment, not as a way to make money.
Take Regular Breaks
Set time limits for your betting sessions and take regular breaks. Never chase losses by betting more than planned or extending your session beyond your predetermined time limit.
Know When to Seek Help
If betting stops being fun or starts affecting your relationships, work, or finances, it's time to seek help. Contact a gambling addiction helpline or visit a responsible gaming organization website.
