Responsible-use principles
Set an affordable entertainment limit before betting and do not exceed it.
Do not treat uncertain outcomes as income or a financial plan.
Increasing a stake after a loss does not make the next outcome more likely.
Do not use credit, loans, or money borrowed from another person.
Step away often and stop when gambling is no longer enjoyable.
Keep housing, food, bills, debt payments, and savings separate.
