Responsible play
Responsible gaming is key to a safe and enjoyable online casino experience. We recommend our users to always remember that games should be a form of entertainment and not a way to make money. To avoid negative consequences, it is important to follow a few simple rules:
1. Set limits: Decide in advance how much you are willing to spend on the game and strictly stick to that limit. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
2. Control your time: Gambling can be addictive, so it is important to control the time you spend at the casino. Take regular breaks.
3. Play sober: Never play under the influence of alcohol or other drugs that may impair your ability to make decisions.
4. Know when to stop: If the game is no longer fun or stressful, take a break or stop playing. Don't try to recover after a defeat.
How to recognize an addiction
Gaming can be a fun activity, but for some people it can become a serious problem. It is important to recognize the signs of gambling addiction in time to avoid possible negative consequences. Here are some important signs that may indicate a problem:
Constant urge to play: If you find yourself thinking more and more about playing, planning your next session, or feeling irritated when you can't play, this could be a warning sign.
Loss of control: If you can't stop even after reaching your time or money limit, and you continue to gamble even when you're losing, it's a sign that you're losing control.
Playing with your last money: You start spending money that was meant for other needs, for example, bills or important purchases, to "earn it back" or in the hope of winning.
You ignore other responsibilities: Gaming starts to take center stage in your life, and you put work, school, personal relationships, and other important things on the back burner.
Hiding your behavior: You start hiding from those closest to you the time and money you spend on gambling, or you lie about your losses and wins.
Emotional consequences: Gambling makes you feel guilty, ashamed, anxious, or depressed, but you keep playing to cope with these feelings.
