Keep play positive
- Set limits: decide in advance how much time you will spend and stick to it.
- Take breaks: avoid playing when tired, stressed, or upset.
- Spend within your means: never use money needed for essentials.
- Know the signs: chasing losses, hiding play, or feeling anxious/irritable can indicate harm.
- Under 21: this site is intended for adults. If you are under 21, please do not use the site.
