Keep control

- Set time limits and take regular breaks.
- Do not gamble when upset, tired or after drinking.
- Treat bonuses as optional and read the wagering terms first.
Warning signs
- Spending more than you planned.
- Hiding gambling from family or friends.
- Borrowing money to play.
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not playing.
