Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Financial Solution
At Live at Herrington, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Games of chance are designed with a mathematical advantage to the house, meaning that over time, players are more likely to lose money than win it. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and never view gambling as a way to earn income or solve financial problems.
Age Verification
Online gambling is strictly regulated in the UK. You must be 18 years of age or older to use our services. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity and age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not access gambling services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be honest with yourself and watch for these warning signs:
- Chasing losses: Gambling more to try to recover money you've lost
- Hiding gambling: Concealing your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Loss of control: Gambling longer or with more money than intended
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, family time, or personal obligations to gamble
- Using gambling to escape: Gambling to relieve stress, anxiety, depression, or other negative feelings
- Increasing stakes: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to get the same excitement
- Failed attempts to stop: Repeatedly trying and failing to cut back or quit
- Financial strain: Borrowing money, accumulating debt, or facing financial difficulties due to gambling
- Mood changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or restless when unable to gamble
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately.
