Responsible Gaming

At Nutz Poker, we are committed to providing a safe, enjoyable, and positive gaming experience. We strive to assist and protect players who may be at risk of experiencing the negative effects of gambling. Through tools like self-exclusion, deposit limits, and responsible gaming education, we empower our players to stay in control of their gaming habits.


Self-Exclusion

We offer tools to help players take a break from gambling, including self-exclusion for various periods.

  • How to Self-Exclude:

    • Desktop: Go to ‘More’ > ‘Tools’ > ‘Responsible Gaming’ > ‘Exclude me from playing’.

    • Mobile App: Navigate to ‘Account’ > ‘Responsible Gaming Settings’.

    • Website: Log in, then go to ‘Account’ > ‘Responsible Gaming’.

  • Self-exclusion applies to your Nutz Poker account and all associated activities, including real-money and play-money games.

Please note: Once a self-exclusion period is initiated, it is irreversible for its duration.

For further support, you can also explore external self-exclusion options with organizations like GamStop.


What You Can Do to Help Yourself

Identify and Reduce Risks

Follow these guidelines to help make your gaming experience safer and reduce the risk of gambling-related harm:

  1. Play for fun and entertainment, not as a way to make money.

  2. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never use money needed for essentials like rent, bills, or food.

  3. Set deposit and spending limits to avoid overspending.

  4. Never chase losses—avoid increasing stakes to recover lost money.

  5. Avoid gambling when feeling stressed, upset, or fatigued, as this can impair decision-making.

  6. Balance gaming with other activities to ensure it does not dominate your life.

If you believe gambling is impacting your life negatively, consider answering the following questions:

  • Have you neglected responsibilities due to gambling?

  • Have you borrowed money to gamble?

  • Do you play longer than intended?

  • Have you experienced stress or anxiety related to gambling?

  • Have you ever considered self-harm because of gambling?

If you answer “yes” to several of these questions, you may be at risk. Visit Gamblers Anonymous or take a self-assessment at:


Setting Limits

Nutz Poker provides tools to help you set limits to manage your gaming:

  • Deposit Limits: Restrict the amount of money you can deposit weekly or monthly.

  • Game Limits: Set limits on cash game stakes, tournament buy-ins, casino games, or sports betting.

  • Withdrawal Restrictions: Disable the ability to cancel pending withdrawals for added financial control.

How to Set Limits:

  • Website: Log in and go to ‘Account’ > ‘Responsible Gaming’.

  • Desktop Client: Navigate to ‘More’ > ‘Tools’ > ‘Responsible Gaming’.

  • Mobile App: Go to ‘Account’ > ‘Responsible Gaming Settings’.

For permanent or specific restrictions, contact our Help Center for assistance.


Be Aware of Myths about Gambling

It’s important to play with realistic expectations. Some common misconceptions about gambling include:

  • “I can control or predict outcomes.”

  • “If I keep playing, I’ll eventually win back my losses.”

  • “I can’t become addicted; it’s just entertainment.”

Recognizing these myths can help you maintain a healthy perspective on gambling.
