Responsible Gambling
Crash games are entertainment. They are not an income source and they are not a route out of financial difficulty. This page is a quick guide to staying in control.
Set your limits before you play
- Decide your maximum loss for the session, write it down and stop when you hit it.
- Decide your time limit and set a timer.
- Only stake money you can afford to lose. Never gamble with rent, food or borrowed money.
- Never chase losses by raising the stake to recover.
Warning signs
- You play longer or stake more than you planned.
- You hide your gambling from family or friends.
- You borrow money to play, or to repay losses.
- You feel anxious, irritable or depressed after losses.
- Gambling stops you sleeping or stops you fulfilling work, study or family duties.
