Betting should be for fun, with money you can afford to lose. InPlay90 shows statistics and prices; it takes no bets. You must be 18 or over.
Keep control
- Set a limit of money and of time before you start, and stop when you reach it.
- Never chase losses: do not bet to win back money.
- Do not bet when you are upset, tired or after drinking.
- Keep betting apart from your bills and your savings.
- Take breaks, and use the limits and the self-exclusion your bookmaker offers.
Signs it is becoming a problem
Betting more than you meant to, hiding it, borrowing to bet, or feeling anxious when you are not betting.
