1. Our Responsible Gaming Principles
- Informed Choices: Providing players with transparent stats, session histories, and real-time wallet balances.
- Age Verification: Enforcing strict 18+ age verification checks to ensure no minors access cash games.
- Control Tools: Giving players active options to set deposit caps and self-exclude.
2. Player Control & Safety Tools
We provide multiple features to help you manage your gaming habits:
- Daily & Monthly Deposit Limits: Set a ceiling on how much money you can deposit within 24 hours or 30 days.
- Table Stakes Limits: Restrict the maximum point value or table entry fee you can join.
- Time-Out / Cool-Off Periods: Temporarily freeze access to your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently or semi-permanently close your account if you feel gaming is negatively affecting your life.
3. Self-Assessment Checklist
Ask yourself the following questions periodically:
- Are you spending more time or money on card games than you originally intended?
- Do you ever borrow money or neglect financial responsibilities to play rummy?
- Do you play to escape personal stress, loneliness, or work pressure?
- Do you attempt to immediately win back lost money by playing higher stake tables?
If you answered "Yes" to two or more of these questions, we strongly encourage taking an immediate break or activating self-exclusion.
4. Guidance for Healthy Play
- Determine your gaming budget in advance and never exceed it.
- Balance gaming with other hobbies, fitness, family, and work obligations.
- Never play while feeling fatigued, emotionally distressed, or under the influence.
- Use our free practice tables whenever you wish to play purely for fun without stakes.
