Responsible Gaming in New York
Gambling should be entertainment. For most people it is, but for some it becomes a problem, and NY Gaming Review wants every reader to know where the line is and where to get help.
Signs of a problem
- Spending more time or money on gambling than you intended
- Chasing losses, or borrowing money to gamble
- Gambling to escape stress, boredom or low mood
- Hiding your gambling from family or friends
- Feeling restless or irritable when you try to cut down
Where to get help
If you recognise any of these in yourself or someone close to you, call the New York HOPEline on 1-877-8-HOPENY (1-877-846-7369) or text HOPENY (467369). Help is free and confidential.
Tools that help
Every operator we review is subject to the New York State Gaming Commission and offers deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. Set a budget before you play, treat it as the cost of entertainment, and never gamble with money you need for anything else.
Age
You must be at least 21 to use the sites reviewed on NY Gaming Review. All operators verify age and identity before allowing play or paying out.
