Important Notice

Gambling can hook you before you notice. If it's starting to hurt your life, reach out for help right now. You're not the only one going through it, and support is there around the clock.

Signs of Problem Gambling

  • Betting more than your budget can take
  • Letting work, family, or other duties slide
  • Piling on more bets to win back what you lost
  • Borrowing cash or selling things to keep playing
  • Hiding how much you actually gamble
  • Feeling anxious or low because of gambling
  • Not being able to stop or cut back

Tips for Safe Gambling

Set a Budget

Play only with cash you're fine losing.

Set Time Limits

Put a clock on your session and stick to it.

Never Chase Losses

A wiped round is over. Don't bet to win it back.

Take Breaks

Walk away often to keep a clear head.

4

Have you borrowed money or sold anything to get money to gamble?

5
