Whenever you visit a casino or online casino, keep the following points in mind to ensure that gambling remains fun:

• Set yourself an appropriate upper limit for the amount you want to spend on your gambling, and never exceed this limit.
• Keep the money you intend to gamble separate and use only this money.
• Deposit only as much money into your player account online as you want to bet in the game.
• Take regular gambling breaks. At any given moment, your chances of winning are the same.
• Remember: despite high payout ratios of over 90%, the financial profit that you can achieve in the long run is below your stake.
• Enjoy the smaller wins and take them home with you. What looks like a “lucky streak” is really a series of random events.
• Don’t try to balance out your losses. There is no rule that says a run of losses will suddenly be followed by a series of wins.
• You can’t force luck.

If you find it difficult or even impossible to adhere to these points, we recommend that you stop playing. If you cannot do this of your own accord, we are here to help with advice.
