Playing Responsibly

Playing at any casino always be an entertainment, and never thought of as a way to make money.

Likewise, money spent on gambling should always limited to within you means, such that it does not affect your day to day life and long-term goals in any way.

It is worth appreciating that all casinos are designed to be profitable and so over the long-term, when you play casino games, you will spend money, rather than make money. Yes, you may luck-out once in a while, but in the long-term, the casino is the (financial) winner, whilst the player should be the winner in terms of entertainment.

If you are not enjoying casino games as a responsible entertainment, you need to get help. If you are worried about your casino spend, take a look at this self assessment test to help asses whether you are a compulsive gambler and seek help from organizations like gamblers anonymous

Underage Play

It is illegal for any casino to accept players that have not reached legal gambling age in the country / territory they live in. None of the casinos we recommend here will do so, but to be extra sure, it is well worth investing in software to protect children from any restricted websites, including gambling websites. One good option is NetNanny
