Sports Betting: the Importance of Bankroll Management (Responsible Gaming)

  • Diana Gujer Independiente

Abstract

Proper bankroll management allows you to play responsibly. It represents not risking personal or family resources in sports betting. A bet should be a hobby to add excitement to a game of the favorite soccer team, trying as much as possible to earn additional money to the salary, always keeping calm and cautious. You should never spend more than 10% of your bankroll. This prevents problems such as gambling disorder, defined as a pathological addiction to electronic or gambling games. Gambling responsibly means differentiating between own money needed for everyday life and money spent on entertainment.

Keywords: Games of chance, Gambling disorder, Bankroll
