Responsible Gambling

Tips for responsible gambling

Set a budget and stick to it

Decide in advance how much you're willing to spend, and never go beyond it — treat it as an entertainment cost, not an investment.

Never chase losses

Trying to win back money you've lost by betting more is one of the most common paths to serious harm. If you're down, walk away.

Take breaks regularly

Step away from betting activity regularly, especially if you notice yourself thinking about it constantly or betting out of habit rather than choice.

Signs of problem gambling

  • Betting more than you can afford to lose
  • Chasing losses with bigger bets
  • Lying to family or friends about how much you bet
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you try to stop
  • Neglecting work, relationships, or responsibilities because of betting
