Responsible Gambling

Gambling Should Be Fun

Gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money. The majority of people who gamble do so responsibly, but for some, gambling can become a problem.

If gambling stops being fun, it's time to stop.

Signs of Problem Gambling

You may have a gambling problem if you:

• Spend more money or time gambling than you can afford
• Find it hard to manage or stop your gambling
• Have arguments with family or friends about money and gambling
• Lose interest in usual activities or hobbies
• Always think or talk about gambling
• Lie about your gambling or hide it from others
• Chase losses or gamble to get out of financial trouble
• Gamble until all your money is gone
• Borrow money, sell possessions or don't pay bills to fund gambling
• Feel anxious, worried, guilty, depressed or irritable

Tips for Responsible Gambling

• Set a budget - Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
• Set time limits - Don't let gambling take over your life
• Never chase losses - Accept losses as part of the game
• Don't gamble when upset - Emotional decisions lead to poor choices
• Take regular breaks - Step away and do other activities
• Don't borrow to gamble - Only use disposable income
• Balance gambling with other activities - Keep perspective
