When participating in online gambling, it’s important to ensure that players can maintain control over their activities at all times. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to follow these guidelines:
- View gambling games as a form of entertainment, not as a means to make money.
- Only wager what you are comfortable losing. Do not use money intended for bills or essential expenses.
- Keep track of your gambling activities and bets.
- Avoid chasing losses: increasing your stakes in an attempt to recover losses is not advisable.
- If necessary, lower the recommended bet amounts provided by the site to help you stay within your budget.
If you are uncertain whether you may have a gambling problem, please consider these questions:
- Do you spend time meant for work or studies gambling?
- Do you gamble to earn money and cover other financial obligations?
- After losing a game, do you feel the urge to continue playing?
- Do you often gamble all the money you have available?
- Have you ever borrowed, stolen, or lied to fund your gambling?
- Have you ever sold something to continue gambling?
- Have you lost interest in your family or close relationships?
- Do you gamble to escape from personal challenges, frustrations, or disappointments?
- Do you become easily frustrated or irritable after prolonged gambling sessions?
- Do you feel distressed thinking about your gambling habits?
If you answered "Yes" to many of these questions, you may be struggling with a gambling addiction. If this is the case, please seek assistance from the relevant authorities immediately.
