Set Clear Limits
Decide your deposit, stake, loss and time limits before you start. Limits should protect your finances, not react to a bad result.
Protect Essential Money
Only use money you can afford to lose. Rent, bills, food, savings and family commitments must always come first.
Never Chase Losses
Increasing stakes to recover previous losses usually increases risk. Stop, take a break and return only when you are thinking clearly.
Take Regular Breaks
Step away after long sessions, strong emotions or unexpected losses. A clear mind makes better decisions.
Recognise Warning Signs
Stress, secrecy, borrowing, missed responsibilities and loss of control are signs to stop and seek support.
No Bet Is a Valid Decision
You do not need to bet on every match. When evidence is weak or your judgement is affected, no bet is the right decision.
