Responsible Gambling
Gambling is meant to be an enjoyable form of entertainment. We are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices and providing resources to players who may need support.
Stay in Control
Before you play, we recommend setting clear personal limits. Responsible gambling means:
- Only gambling with money you can afford to lose.
- Setting a budget before you play and sticking to it.
- Never chasing losses.
- Taking regular breaks and not gambling when you are upset, tired, or under the influence.
- Balancing gambling with other leisure activities.
- Never borrowing money to gamble.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling.
- Lying to family or friends about gambling habits.
- Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling.
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression.
- Trying unsuccessfully to reduce or stop gambling.
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
