    • Borrowing money or selling assets to fund gambling
    • Chasing losses in hopes of recovering funds
    • Experiencing stress, anxiety, or irritability when not gambling
  • Self-assessment test:
    • Do you often gamble longer or with more money than you planned?
    • Have you tried, unsuccessfully, to cut back or stop gambling?
    • Do you find yourself thinking about gambling even when not playing?
    • Has gambling caused issues at work, school, or with your family?

    If you answered "yes" to one or more questions, consider seeking support or using the protective tools provided by kingdom-casino.
