Responsible Gambling
Gambling should be entertainment, never a way to make money or solve money problems. It is for adults aged 18 and over, and it always carries risk.
Keep control
- Decide a budget before you play and stick to it.
- Only use money you can afford to lose.
- Set a time limit and take regular breaks.
- Never chase losses.
- Do not play when stressed, tired or after drinking.
Warning signs
- Spending more time or money than you planned.
- Borrowing money to gamble.
- Hiding your gambling from family or friends.
- Feeling anxious or irritable when you are not playing.
