What responsible gaming means

Note: Lucky Shamrock Casino is a guide for Irish players. We don't host games on this site. This page explains how we promote responsible gaming and help players stay in control.

Responsible gaming means playing for entertainment, not money. It also means reading game rules, using safe-play tools and being aware of limits.

Our approach to responsible gaming

We list reputable online casinos that offer responsible gambling features. These include deposits limits, time reminders, reality checks and self-exclusion where available. We encourage you to set personal limits and take a break if you need one.

Practical tips for staying in control

• Set a strict budget for each session and stick to it.
• Limit your time and use reminders to pace your play.
• Take regular breaks and avoid chasing losses.
• If you feel out of control, use self-exclusion or cooling-off periods offered by operators. See our Responsible Gaming page.
• Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never treat gambling as income.

Support and resources

If you need help, talk to trusted friends or seek professional advice in your country. For more information, you can read our Responsible Gaming page or consult local helplines and charities that support gambling safety.
