Decide on a limit before you play
Set a maximum amount and a maximum time before a session involving money. The amount should exclude housing, food, debt payments, and other necessities. Write the limit down while you are calm, not after a loss. A recent win does not change the risk of the next round either.
Warning signs include hiding spending, checking an account continually, losing sleep, neglecting duties, or feeling unable to stop. If you use a gaming service, find its break, limit, and self-exclusion tools. This guide cannot activate them on an account operated by another company.
Speak with someone you trust if gaming begins to affect your finances, relationships, or wellbeing. Seek professional support available where you live; there is no need to wait for a severe loss. People below the age permitted in their location should not use money-based gaming services. If a promotion or notification urges you to play outside your plan, close the page and reconsider after a break.
