Betting should be entertainment, never a way to make money you need. If it stops being fun, stop.
Keep it in control
- Set a budget you can afford to lose, and a time limit, before you start.
- Use the deposit limits, reality checks, time-outs and self-exclusion your bookmaker offers.
- Never chase losses or bet to solve money problems.
- Don’t bet when you’re stressed, upset or have been drinking.
Warning signs
- Spending more money or time than you planned.
- Borrowing money or hiding your betting from people close to you.
- Feeling anxious or irritable when you’re not betting.
