Online Gambling Do’s:
-
Before you start play set your budget limit and stick to it. Set also your profit target amount and make it reasonable.
-
Quit while ahead. The feeling is great and you are likely to win again next time.
-
If you lose your set limit, quit immediately.
-
Never borrow money to gamble and don’t lend either. Lending money to a friend who is losing badly is a sure way of stressing your friendship – and probably the lent money too.
-
Do your homework before you gamble online, not after. Read the rules, check the terms on bonuses and cashing out, in particular.
-
Check the customer service response before you sign up with an online casino. Make a phonecall or send them an email with a question and see how long it takes them to reply.
-
Check if the online casino is a member of a known association. This won’t be a guarantee, but it surely reduces the risk of being let down.
-
Be suspicious of anything that sounds to good too be true. It probably is.
-
Learn money management, it is more important than the game itself.
Online Gambling Don’ts:
-
Don’t be afraid to bet. If you are not up to it, don’t gamble.
-
Don’t drink and gamble – drinking lowers your inhibitions and clouds your judgment.
-
Don’t gamble if you feel tired.
-
Don’t increase your bets to try to recover losses.
-
Don’t be greedy; if you lose what you have just won, you are.
-
Don’t gamble more than your set limit.
-
Don’t stay beyond what you have set out to do.
-
Never quit after a win.
-
When you win a lot, don’t think it’s easy. It may feel that way but it never is.
-
Don’t risk more than you can afford to lose, especially on a new game or a game that you don’t know all the rules of.
