Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At iitsnews.com, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the movies or a sporting event. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and do not consider it as a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
Age Verification
All players must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction) to participate in online gaming at King Johnnie Casino or any licensed gambling operator. If you are under the legal age, you must not attempt to register or play.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour, please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Hiding or lying about your gambling activities from family and friends
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble
- Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
