Responsible Gaming
Richman88 hopes that all players will be able to derive
maximum enjoyment from the games we offer through reasonable and responsible
gaming.
Richman88 believes that online gambling is a personal
lifestyle choice. Therefore, before you participate in any online gambling
activities, please ensure that the decision to gamble is purely of your own
free will and choice. A common and recurrent problem among betting enthusiasts
is exceeding their gambling budget. As such, we recommend that you plan your
expenditures and gambling budget ahead of time to prevent an overrun of your
budget. If you are experiencing financial difficulties, it is advisable that
you refrain from gambling for a short period of time to recover financially as
well as to moderate your gambling behaviour. If you find yourself unable to
exert any control over your gambling activities, you may require professional
help.
Do not gamble if:
You are not of the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction.
It prevents you from living a quality life and/or distracts
you from your work and responsibilities.
You are recovering from any addictive disorders or
dependencies.
You are under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
You are attempting to cover prior gambling losses.
If gambling is not something you want to do but rather
something you need to do, we advise you to seek professional help. Many people
view gambling as recreation – a fun and harmless form of entertainment to
escape the monotony of everyday life. However, gambling has become troublesome
for a minority of whom gambling has become harmful. We hope that all activities
on Richman88 are carried out responsibly so you can fully enjoy yourself without
any negative repercussions.
Through extensive training and years of experience in the
casino industry, the staff of Richman88 are equipped to spot and identify the
signs of problem gambling in players. Our goal is to provide a comfortable and
polite gaming environment but at the same time, also help people who are in
need of assistance.
There are agencies and organizations that are professionally
skilled to provide assistance to players with gambling problems. The following
is a list of websites that each provide online guidance and information about
addictive gambling:
