What are the risks?
● Financial losses: Without clear limits, it's easy to spend more than planned
● Debt spiral:
The desire to "recover" often leads to loans and borrowing.
● Psychological pressure: After a losing streak—lower self-esteem, anxiety, and
aggression.
● Addiction:
Loss of balance and constant desire for "one more bet."
● Social isolation: When the game replaces socializing, work, and other interests.
Betting should not be a source of stress. It should be part of an enjoyable life—controlled, safe, and pleasant.
To avoid problems, it's important to follow a system of rules—the Bettor's code. They will help maintain balance and prevent the game from becoming uncontrollable.
5 rules of the bettor's personal code
1. Bet only with disposable income
Why: When the bet doesn't threaten your budget, it feels easier, even if you lose. From a psychological perspective: You maintain inner peace and don't feel guilty about lost money.
2. Set clear limits
Why: It's your "insurance"
against impulsive decisions.
From a psychological perspective:
You know when it's time to stop—and don't regret it the next day.
3. Don't try to recover
losses
Why: The desire to recover losses often
leads to even greater losses.
From a psychological perspective:
"Recovering" triggers a cycle of stress and addiction. Stop—that's
the best win.
4. Bet only on what you
understand
Why: Betting on unfamiliar sports is like
a lottery.
From a psychological perspective:
Understanding the game gives confidence. Randomness creates doubt.
5. Taking breaks is not a
weakness
Why: Taking a break from the game allows
you to rethink strategies and restore emotional balance.
From a psychological perspective:
Breaks are a way to maintain a healthy distance and avoid burnout.
Educational initiatives of brands
Smart
gaming is a style that every responsible bettor strives for. More and more
companies support this idea not just with words, but with concrete actions. 1xBet, as a socially aware bookmaker, launched
a special project dedicated to mindful gambling. Its goal is to help
players better understand their behavior, avoid addiction, and play safely.
As part of the initiative:
● An interactive test allows each player to assess their level of control over their bets.
● Educational materials explain how to manage a budget, avoid mistakes, and develop a healthy attitude toward betting.
● A social media campaign raises awareness of responsible betting through tips, storytelling, and experiences from other players.
● Visual tools: Posters, infographics, and videos—help make complex topics easy to understand.
Responsible betting is not about restrictions, but the freedom to control the situation. Follow the announcements and updates of the project on 1xBet's social media.
