Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At General's Arms, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While we offer exciting games and the possibility of winning, it's important to understand that the house always has a mathematical advantage. Always gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to use our services. We are committed to preventing underage gambling and take this responsibility seriously. By accessing General's Arms, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in the United Kingdom.
Parents and guardians: If you're concerned about a young person's gaming habits, please reach out to the support organisations listed below.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money you've lost
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce gambling
- Experiencing mood swings related to wins and losses
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Failed attempts to stop or reduce gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, help is available.
