Set limits before you start
Choose a spending limit you can afford to lose and a time limit for the session. Keep essential living costs separate. Avoid borrowing to gamble, playing while distressed, or trying to recover a loss with another wager.
Take a break or stop
If play stops being enjoyable, leave the session. Ask the operator about deposit limits, timeouts and self-exclusion. Consider device-level blocking tools and speak to someone you trust.
