Rules that lower the risk
- Decide your monthly amount in advance and never raise it after a loss.
- Do not gamble with borrowed or credit money.
- Set an alarm: tiredness blunts your judgement of risk.
- Do not play when you are low, or after drinking.
- Chasing losses is the most common road to a large one. Treat what is lost as spent.
Self-limitation tools
Licensed operators offer deposit limits, stake limits, time-out and self-exclusion. They are set in your account and take effect immediately. Self-exclusion cannot be lifted early — that is the point of it.
Where to get help
Help is free and confidential. Links to support services are in the footer of every page. Talking to a specialist commits you to nothing and is not shared with anyone.
