Responsible Play

• Betting involves financial risk. You can lose money, and losing is common.
• Never wager money you cannot afford to lose, such as money you need for rent, bills, food or debts.
• Set time and spending limits before you start, and stick to them.
• Avoid chasing losses. Trying to win back what you have lost usually leads to bigger losses.
• Take breaks, and step away when betting stops being fun.
• Do not bet while impaired, whether by alcohol or drugs, or when you are upset or stressed.
• Follow the law and the rules. Only bet where it is legal for you, and meet your sportsbook’s age and other requirements.
• Use your sportsbook’s tools. Many licensed sportsbooks offer deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion.

Consider reaching out if gambling is causing problems with your:

• money: betting more than you planned, borrowing to bet or falling behind on bills;
• feelings: feeling anxious, irritable, guilty or low about betting;
• relationships: hiding your betting or arguing about it with people close to you; or
• work or school: betting getting in the way of what you need to do.

Help is free and confidential, and talking to someone early can make a difference, for you or for someone you are worried about.
