Responsible Gambling

Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money. It is for adults aged 18 and over.

Keep control

  • Set a deposit budget before you play and stick to it.
  • Set a time limit and take regular breaks.
  • Never chase losses.
  • Do not gamble when upset, tired or after drinking.
  • Never gamble with money needed for rent, bills or food.

Warning signs

  • Spending more than you planned
  • Hiding gambling from family or friends
  • Borrowing to gamble
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when you stop
