Responsible Gambling at Big Lucky

Gambling should be fun and safe. At Big Lucky, we give you the tools to gamble safely, including deposit limits and time-outs. Ensure you stay within your budget, never wager more than you can afford, and always gamble responsibly.

Play Safely and Responsibly

Online casino games are supposed to be fun, and as soon as they stop being fun, it’s time to call it a night. Never play when you are:

Frustrated
Angry
Emotional
Intoxicated

If you get annoyed when you lose, stop, take a breath, and only return when those feelings have passed. One of the first steps to battling problem gambling is acknowledging the fact and striving to do something about it. So, you’re on the right track. However, every frequent gambler should conduct a self-assessment to see where they stand even if they think they don't have an issue.

Ask yourself the following questions, and if the answers are affirmative, you may have a potential gambling problem:

Do you ever lose important time from work, school, or your home life for gambling?
Does gambling frequently make you unhappy?
Have you ever felt remorseful after gambling?
Do you often gamble until you have no money left?
Have you ever borrowed money to finance your gambling?
Have you ever lost sleep because of gambling losses or the urge to gamble?
Do you ever gamble to escape stress, boredom, grief, or depression?
Have you committed or considered committing a crime to fund your gambling?

Key Strategies for Responsible Gambling

In addition to performing regular self-assessments, there are a few other things you can do to ensure you are gambling safely, responsibly, and within your means:

Create a Budget and Set Limits

Before you gamble, you should know exactly how much you will wager by setting a budget. That money should never come from money used to pay bills, nor should it be pulled out of your savings. Only lose what you can afford to lose. When you deposit those funds, don’t tell yourself that you could win X or Y but will likely lose all of it.

Don’t Chase Losses

Choose your stake and stick with it by setting session limits. After setting these limits, don’t exceed them under any circumstances. If you hit a losing streak, it’s time to take a break, and it’s not time to increase your wager and take bigger risks.

Never Play When You’re Stressed, Upset, or Angry

You’re prone to taking bigger risks and making big mistakes when you’re emotional, so never play in a heightened emotional state. If you enjoy placing bets and playing casino games, you may see gambling as something that can cheer you up. That’s fine, provided you’re not gambling in an emotional state, and the act of gambling is not making your mood worse.
