Signs it might be time for a break

  • Spending more money or time than you planned
  • Chasing losses or borrowing to gamble
  • Hiding gambling from people close to you
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when you're not playing

Tools every licensed casino must offer

Every licensed casino lets you set deposit limits, take a time-out or self-exclude from your account settings. Best move: set your limits before you play, not after a bad night.
