I want to find out if I have a problem

Defining problem gambling is difficult. Even experts have yet to agree on a single definition. However, we are able to identify risky behaviors that may indicate or accompany a potential problem. For us, problem gambling is gambling that disrupts or harms a gambler’s personal, family, or work life and completely changes the way they spend their free time.

Important factors influencing the further development of a player’s behavior include not only biological factors but also the player’s background, support system, and safety net. The Responsible Gaming project combines prevention, access to tools and professional assistance, as well as the development and refinement of methods for operators to detect such behavior.

How can I help myself?

Don't be afraid to admit that you have a problem. That's the first step toward solving it. Try applying some of the following rules, which may help you get your passion under control. 

We know it’s easier said than done. But if gaming has gotten out of hand and you’re spending all your free time on it, that’s not healthy for you. Gaming is no longer fun for you. Take a break from gaming and avoid it for a while. Setting self-restrictions (limits) can help you with this. If even that doesn’t help, you can voluntarily sign up for the exclusion registry.

Try dusting off your old, forgotten hobbies. Just do whatever makes you feel good in your free time and helps you forget about gaming.

For me, betting is a hobby that actually teaches me things

Ondřej 37 years

I started betting about 8 or 9 years ago. I’ve always been a sports fan. I actively played table tennis and tennis, as well as other sports. I enjoyed watching the Grand Slams on TV. And it was tennis that I started betting on. At first, I bet amounts ranging from a hundred to a thousand, more or less based on a hunch. In the early years, I was definitely running a slight deficit. But then I...

Ten years ago, I gambled in a rather uncontrolled manner, but eventually I set clear rules for myself, which I still follow today.

I started betting on soccer and hockey as a weekend pastime. Back then, I didn’t really worry about the rules, I didn’t increase my bets much, and I bet just for fun. But this laid-back approach was a bit chaotic, and the first problems started cropping up. I also discovered that you could place bets in the afternoon and then, if things didn’t go your way, pop into the betting shop again. I...
