If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, help is available 24/7. Call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-522-4700, chat at ncpgambling.org/chat, or text "GAMBLER" to 1-800-522-4700. The call is free and confidential.

Bet for fun, not for income

PropEdge publishes statistical projections for entertainment. Even a good projection is just an estimate — outcomes are uncertain and no system wins every time. Sports betting should be a form of entertainment you can afford, never a way to make money or recover losses.

Simple rules that keep it healthy

  • Only ever risk money you can comfortably afford to lose.
  • Set a budget and a time limit before you start — and stick to them.
  • Never chase losses by betting more to "win it back."
  • Don't bet when you're upset, stressed, or under the influence.
  • Take regular breaks. It's a game, not a job.
  • Keep gambling money separate from money you need for bills and essentials.

Warning signs to watch for

  • Betting more than you planned, or more than you can afford.
  • Chasing losses or trying to win back what you lost.
  • Lying to friends or family about your gambling.
  • Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when you can't bet.
  • Borrowing money or neglecting responsibilities to gamble.

If any of these feel familiar, please reach out for support — it works, and it's free.
