Gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment. If gambling stops being fun or begins to cause harm, it is important to seek help. This page provides guidance and resources to help you gamble responsibly.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Warning signs include:
- Spending more money or time gambling than you intend
- Chasing losses with larger bets
- Neglecting work, family, or social obligations because of gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to stop gambling
- Lying to family or friends about your gambling habits
Tips for Gambling Responsibly
- Set a budget before you play and stick to it
- Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose
- Treat gambling as entertainment, not a way to make money
- Take regular breaks and set time limits
- Do not gamble when you are stressed, depressed, or under the influence of alcohol
- Use the deposit and loss limits available in your casino account
