How to Get Help
There are numerous organizations
that can provide support and
assistance to individuals who
develop a problem with gambling. If
you think that you may have a
gambling problem we recommend
contacting any one of a number of
self-help organizations for
guidance. For confidential advice
and support concerning a gambling
problem, please contact:
For players who enjoy frequent
gambling, it is not uncommon to
occasionally overspend their budget.
We advise all players to make
specific budget plans to ensure
their gambling expenditures do not
exceed their affordable limits.

help you control your gaming. You
