Responsible Gambling
At gonzosquest.au we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling. Gambling should always be a form of entertainment — never a source of income or a way to cope with stress or financial difficulty.
The Golden Rules of Responsible Gambling
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
- Set a time and spending limit before you start — and stick to it
- Never chase your losses
- Do not gamble when you are upset, depressed, or under the influence of alcohol
- Take regular breaks and balance gambling with other leisure activities
- Never borrow money to gamble
Signs of Problem Gambling
You may have a problem with gambling if you:
- Spend more money or time gambling than you can afford
- Feel anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Hide gambling activity from family or friends
- Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling
- Neglect work, study, or family responsibilities because of gambling
- Continue gambling despite wanting to stop
