Good Money and Time Rules for Safe Gambling

Keep Money In Check

Fixed bet budgets help keep betting safe. Set a firm monthly limit seen as just for fun, not as a way to make money. Money rules are a must – if you reach your limit, you stop right away no matter what.

Manage Your Time Right

Setting time limits helps avoid too much gambling. Limit sessions to an hour at most, no more than two times a week. Use countdown timers and stick to your time plan. Tracking Faint Electric Clues in High-Voltage Plays
