Responsible gambling

Gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money. Over time the house always has the edge.

Stay in control

• Decide how much money and time you’ll spend before you start — and stick to it.
• Only play with money you can afford to lose. Never borrow to gamble.
• Don’t chase losses by betting more.
• Don’t play when you’re upset, stressed or have been drinking.
• Take breaks and balance gambling with other activities.
• Use the casino’s tools: deposit limits, cool-off periods and self-exclusion are usually in your account settings or available through support.

Warning signs

• You spend more money or time than you planned.
• You hide how much you gamble from others.
• You gamble to escape problems or feelings.
• You feel anxious or irritable when you’re not gambling.
• Gambling affects your work, studies, relationships or finances.

If any of these sound familiar, talk to someone. Asking for help is a strong move.
