Keep it fun.

NBA House is built to help you make informed decisions, and good information includes knowing that most bets lose. Even the best prop models win only a little more often than they lose. Treat betting as paid entertainment, never as income.

Habits that help

• Set a budget before the season and track every bet — the bankroll tracker is free for exactly this.
• Bet a small, fixed share of your bankroll per bet, and never chase losses with bigger stakes.
• Never bet money you need for rent, bills or debt, and never borrow to bet.
• Take breaks. Use the deposit limits and time-outs your sportsbook offers.

Signs it may be a problem

Betting more than you planned, hiding it from people close to you, feeling anxious or irritable when you are not betting, or trying to win back losses. If any of this sounds familiar, talking to someone helps, and it is free and confidential.
