What Is Responsible Gambling?
Responsible gambling means staying in control of your gambling activities and ensuring it remains a form of entertainment. It involves:
Setting time and budget limits.
Gambling only with money you can afford to lose.
Avoiding gambling when feeling upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol.
Knowing when to stop and seeking help if gambling is causing problems.

It’s important to recognize the warning signs of problem gambling. These include:
Spending more money or time on gambling than intended.
Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling.
Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
Feeling guilt, anxiety, or frustration after gambling.
Being unable to stop or reduce gambling activities despite repeated attempts.
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.

Tips for Gambling Responsibly
Establish Limits: Set a time and financial limit before you begin gambling, and stick to it.
Take Breaks: Avoid long, continuous gambling sessions. Take regular breaks to clear your mind and regain perspective.
Know the Odds: Understand that gambling outcomes are based on chance. There are no guaranteed ways to win.
Avoid Chasing Losses: Never attempt to win back lost money by gambling more. This behavior can lead to further losses.
Balance Your Life: Make sure gambling doesn't interfere with other important aspects of your life, such as work, relationships, or personal activities.
