Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Wingham Bowling, we believe that gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Casino games are games of chance with odds that always favour the house. Please gamble responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to access and use Leon Casino. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and maintaining a safe gaming environment for all users.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may have a gambling problem. Please seek help:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Spending more time or money gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount gambled
- Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Experiencing relationship conflicts because of gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible gaming operators offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you have been playing
- Session Time Limits: Set a maximum duration for your gaming sessions
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gaming for a set period or permanently
We recommend using these tools as part of your responsible gaming strategy. Contact Leon Casino support for assistance in setting up these controls.
