Ways to stay in control

• Set a budget before you start and stop when it is gone. Never chase losses.
• Only bet money you can afford to lose; never bills, rent or borrowed money.
• Set deposit limits and time reminders in your sportsbook account, or take a break or self-exclude.
• Do not bet when you are upset, tired or drinking.
• Remember every price includes a margin for the sportsbook, so the long-run odds are against the bettor. See the vig explained.

Warning signs

• Betting more than you planned, or hiding it from people close to you.
• Feeling anxious or irritable when you are not betting.
• Borrowing money or missing payments to keep betting.

Age and legality

You must be of legal age (21+ in most states) and located in a state where online betting is legal. Oddsloft does not accept bets and does not decide whether betting is lawful where you are.
