Core principles

Only stake what you can comfortably afford to lose. Betting is not a source of income.
Never try to win back losses with bigger stakes (“chasing”).
Set yourself time and money limits – and stick to them.
Don't bet when emotional, under the influence of alcohol, or as a way to relieve stress.
Gambling is prohibited for anyone under 18.

Signs of problem gambling

You spend more money and time on betting than you planned.
You hide from others how much you play.
You borrow money or leave bills unpaid because of betting.
You become restless or irritable when you can't play.
Betting harms your relationships, your work or your mood.

Self-limits and self-exclusion

Legal, SZTFH-licensed bookmakers are required to offer responsible-gaming tools: deposit and stake limits, time limits, and self-exclusion (temporary or permanent account suspension). Use them freely – they exist to protect you.
