Getting paid fast is great; chasing losses is not. Gambling should be entertainment you can afford — never income or an escape.
Spending past your budget, wagering money meant for bills, hiding play, or feeling on edge when you're not gambling — those are signals to stop. Set deposit and time limits before you play, and use each casino's cool-off and self-exclusion tools.
Most licensed operators let you self-exclude, and provincial tools are available. If it's stopped being fun, take a break.
