Gambling should be fun, a leisure activity that gives us a small rush. But unfortunately, for a small minority, gambling online is a huge problem.
Therefore, we here at Game Info stand for responsible gambling. First and foremost to help people with a problem. But also to provide advice to every gambler out there.
First, off all – you should never gamble more than what you are willing to lose.
A common trope, but nonetheless true. There are never any guarantees of winning, and therefore, you must be able to withstand a loss.
This means that if you are a poor college student, you should be more careful than if you are an established professional making buck.
Identify your risk tolerance and adjust accordingly.
Secondly – if you believe you might have a problem, get help.
The first step to deal with a problem is to identify it. For this, we recommend taking the “Do I have a gambling problem” test at BeGamleAware.org.
This will help you find out how much money you are spending on gambling.
If you have identified that you have a problem, you need to stop yourself from gambling
Don’t be afraid to seek out professionals if you feel you need to.
Thirdly – stop yourself if necessary.
A way to stop yourself from gambling is to block gambling websites on your devices. This can be done with the help of Gamblock.com.
