To be a successful gambler you need to gamble responsibly, to control how much money and time you’re spending on gambling. Gambling needs to be only an entertainment for you, not a lifestyle or a way to make money.
The vast majority of adults who gamble do it responsibly.
When you’re gambling, you’re really just buying some sort of entertainment – be it poker, blackjack, bingo, sports betting or slots. So, as a consumer and as an adult you need to know that you have other responsibilities in life.
