Entertainment only.
Not income, and not a way to solve problems.
For some people, gambling turns from entertainment into a real problem. This page isn't a nice-to-have: it's a core part of what we stand for. Read it calmly, and if you recognize yourself in any of the signs, ask for help.
Do Any of These Signs Apply to You?
- You play with money set aside for other needs (rent, bills, food)
- You lie about how much you play or lose
- You feel the need to raise your bets to get the same thrill
- You've tried to stop and couldn't
- You play to chase past losses rather than for fun
- You feel anxious or depressed because of your gambling
- You borrow money to play or to cover losses
- You neglect work, school, or relationships because of gambling

Think Someone Close to You Has a Problem?
Talk to them calmly and without blame, and focus on what you've noticed rather than an accusation. Don't pay off their debts for them, suggest the protection tools and self-exclusion, and encourage them to reach out to one of the organizations above. Most of them support family members too.
