Responsible gambling

Gambling should be fun. If it stops being fun, free and confidential help is a click away.

Gambling is entertainment

Treat any money you gamble as the cost of a night out, not as a way to earn. The house always has an edge, and over time it wins.

Simple rules that help

  • Set a budget before you start, and stop when it's gone.
  • Set a time limit too.
  • Never chase losses or borrow to gamble.
  • Don't gamble when you're upset, stressed or have been drinking.
  • Use the casino's deposit limits, cool-off and self-exclusion tools.

Signs it may be becoming a problem

  • Spending more than you planned, or more than you can afford.
  • Hiding your gambling from family or friends.
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when you're not gambling.
  • Gambling to win back losses or to escape problems.

If any of these sound familiar, talk to someone. The support services above are free and confidential, and BetBlocker can block gambling sites on all your devices for free.
