Play it cool.

Casino games are entertainment that costs money. Here is how to keep it that way — and where to find help if it stops being fun.

The basics

  • You must be 21 or older to gamble, or to be on a casino floor, in Nevada.
  • Every casino game has a built-in house edge. Over time, the casino wins.
  • Decide on a budget before you play and treat it as the cost of the night.
  • Set a time limit, take breaks, and never chase losses.
  • Don’t gamble when you’re upset, tired, or have been drinking heavily.
  • Never borrow money to gamble.

Warning signs

  • Spending more time or money than you planned.
  • Going back to win back what you lost.
  • Hiding gambling from friends or family.
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when you try to stop.
  • Gambling with money meant for bills or essentials.
