Bet responsibly

Betting should be entertainment, never a way to make money or chase losses.

Simple rules that help

Decide on a budget before you start, and treat it as money spent on entertainment.
Never chase losses or borrow money to bet.
Use the deposit limits, time-outs and reality checks your bookmaker offers.
Take regular breaks, and don't bet when you're upset, stressed or have been drinking.
Tips are opinions. No tipster, including us, can guarantee a winner.
