22Bet Responsible Gambling

There is nothing wrong with having fun with gambling, but you should never allow it to be the one in charge. When playing at 22Bet, take advantage of all the responsible gambling tools and features it offers to gain insight into how much you are spending, and to control both your time and money.

Responsible Gambling: Definition and Tools

Responsible gambling is a type of betting in which the player maintains focus and control over their funds and time. In other words, it is when you don’t play more than you can afford, plus you don’t play for so long that you neglect your obligations.

Responsible players understand that gambling is not a way to make an income, but a type of entertainment that costs money.

To ensure all its players understand the importance thereof, 22Bet uses different methods and tools to remind them to keep their heads cool:

• Self-assessment quizzes.
• Useful tips and tricks.
• The self-exclusion feature that you can activate via live chat.
• Links to organisations that help gamblers in need.

Do You Have a Gambling Problem?

Look, it can be difficult to admit you have a gambling problem. Still, honesty is the best policy. Running away from the fact that you have lost control only deepens the problem. We bring you a small quiz that can help you understand your gambling behaviour. Mark all the statements you agree with:

1. You often lose track of time and money when you’re gambling.
2. Your family and friends are not happy with your gambling habits.
3. Borrowing money and going into debt to fund gambling is nothing new or strange to you.
4. You would rather gamble than socialise.
5. When you don’t gamble, you feel like you’re missing out on a big win.
6. You have trouble falling asleep and focusing on your daily tasks and work.
7. You have to spend more to feel the same level of excitement.
8. When you lose, you get angry or even violent.
9. You fail to read the playing rules. Action is all that matters to me.
10. You want to cut down on betting, but don’t know how.

This quiz is not a professional assessment, but if you agree with more than a few statements, now is the right time to get help.

Help for Gamblers in Kenya

Your intuition may tell you to talk to your family first, and that is great. Yet, keep in mind your partner, parents, or siblings don’t have the expertise to help you get back on track. They can be great emotional support, but not practical support.

Reach out to Game Help Kenya with a free tool hotline for gamblers in need (0800 000 023). Another great option is the Responsible Gaming Federation of Kenya, which offers special software you can use to block access to gambling sites.
