A Note on Real Gambling

While we teach gambling strategies and techniques:

We are educational, not advisory. What you do in real casinos is your decision.
Casinos have their own rules. Techniques discussed here may not be permitted everywhere.
Gambling involves risk. Never bet more than you can afford to lose.
If gambling becomes a problem, please seek help from resources like the National Council on Problem Gambling (1-800-522-4700) or www.ncpgambling.org.

Updates to Guidelines

We may update these guidelines as our community evolves. Significant changes will be announced in the community and via email. Continued participation after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated guidelines.
