Responsible Play
This page provides general reminders designed to support balanced and responsible participation in lottery-style games available on the Website.
Key messages
- Adults only: content is intended for 18+.
- Set boundaries: time, budget, and frequency.
- Stay mindful: avoid “chasing” outcomes.
- Seek help: support resources are listed below.
Practical principles
These are simple prompts—use what’s helpful and ignore what isn’t. They are not professional advice.
Keep it optional
If it stops feeling like a choice and starts feeling like a need, consider stepping back and talking to someone.
Set limits early
Decide your time and budget boundaries before you begin. Treat limits as non-negotiable guardrails.
Respect randomness
Previous outcomes don’t “improve” future chances. Avoid patterns-as-promises thinking in any draw-style format.
Take structured breaks
Use breaks to reset. A short pause can reduce impulsive decisions and help keep the activity in perspective.
Quick self-check
If you ever choose to engage with real-world lottery-style entertainment, these questions can help you stay grounded:
- Did I decide my limits before starting (time and budget)?
- Am I calm right now, or am I using play to escape stress?
- Would I be okay stopping immediately with no “one more try”?
- Am I treating outcomes as random (not “due” or “guaranteed”)?
- Is this activity fitting alongside the rest of my priorities?
Common warning signs
Consider pausing and seeking support if any of these feel familiar:
- Spending more time or money than you planned.
- Trying to “win back” losses or chasing a specific outcome.
- Hiding play from friends or family.
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not playing.
- Play interfering with work, relationships, or sleep.
