Six Free Tools for Safer Play

All these tools are available in your poker games account — free, easy to access, and can be activated at any time

Deposit Limit

Set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limit to control how much money you add to your poker games account. Limits take effect immediately and require a 7-day waiting period before they can be increased — so every decision you make is always a considered one.

Loss Limit

Set the maximum amount you're willing to lose over a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once this limit is reached, your account will automatically stop accepting new bets until the period resets.

Session Time Limit

Set a limit on how long you can play in a single session. poker games will send you a reminder when you are approaching your time limit, and will automatically log you out once the limit is reached to ensure you get adequate rest.

Temporary Self-Break

Need to step away from the games for a while? Activate the self-break feature for 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days. During this period, you won't be able to log in or play, and no marketing communications will be sent to you.

Permanent Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling has become a serious problem, you can apply for permanent self-exclusion from the poker games platform. Your account will be closed and all attempts to register a new account will be blocked. This is a step we fully support.

Opt Out of Communications

You can opt out of all promotional communications from poker games at any time — including bonus emails, promotional SMS, and in-app notifications. We will not send anything that could trigger an urge to play without your consent.

Our Commitment

Healthy Gambling Starts with the Right Mindset

Poker games believes every member deserves to enjoy online entertainment in a safe and responsible way. Whether you're spinning slots, playing live baccarat, trying fish shooting games, or placing bets on EPL and Malaysia Super League matches, gambling on our platform should always remain a fun leisure activity — not a source of stress or financial strain.

This is why poker games invests seriously in a comprehensive responsible gaming programme. We provide easily accessible self-control tools, train our support team to identify and assist members who may be experiencing difficulties, and work with mental health professionals to ensure our approach is effective and evidence-based.

What Is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means playing with full awareness of the risks involved, within financial limits you can afford, and for entertainment purposes — not as a way to solve money problems or cope with life's pressures. It means you can stop at any time without feeling compelled to continue, and that you are not neglecting your family or work responsibilities because of playing.

Responsible players typically share these traits: they set a spending limit before playing, they accept losses as part of the game without chasing them, they play for entertainment rather than income, and they know when it's time to stop and take a break.

💡 Remember: Gambling should make up only a small part of your overall entertainment — just like going to the movies, dining out, or attending a football match. Set a reasonable entertainment budget and stick to it.

How to Set a Smart Gambling Budget

One of the best responsible gaming practices is setting a clear gambling budget before you start playing. Here is the approach we recommend to poker games members:

First, determine your monthly "entertainment budget" — money you can afford to lose entirely without affecting your essentials such as rent, bills, food, and savings. Only deposit this amount into your poker games account, and use our deposit limit feature to make sure you stay within it. Second, never gamble with borrowed money, funds earmarked for bills, or your emergency savings.

Third, think of the money you deposit as the "cost of entertainment" — just like a movie ticket. If you're lucky enough to win, be grateful and consider withdrawing a portion of those winnings. If you don't win, it's the price of an enjoyable experience.

Gambling vs. Responsibilities — Drawing a Clear Line

Poker games wants to make this clear: gambling is not a reliable way to generate income. All casino games — including high-RTP slots, Live Casino, and Sports Betting — are designed with a house edge, meaning the house always holds a mathematical advantage in the long run. This doesn't mean you won't win — many poker games members do enjoy significant wins — but it does mean you should never depend on gambling as a predictable primary or secondary source of income.

Detailed Guide

A Closer Look at Each Self-Control Tool

Deposit Limits — An Effective Way to Control Your Spending

Deposit limits let you set the maximum amount you can deposit into your poker games account over a daily (e.g. RM100), weekly (e.g. RM500), or monthly (e.g. RM1,500) period. Once the limit is reached, our system will decline any further deposits until the period ends or resets. To increase a limit, a mandatory 7-day waiting period applies to prevent impulsive decisions.

Session Time Limits — Play with an Awareness of Time

Easy to lose track of time while enjoying slots or watching a live match? poker games' session time limit tool will notify you once you've been playing for your set duration. You can configure alerts at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or any interval you prefer. The system can also be set to log you out automatically when the limit is reached.

Self-Break — A Pause on Your Terms

A self-break is the right tool if you feel you need to step away from playing for a while but aren't ready for a permanent exclusion. Options range from 1 day to 6 months. During this period, your account will be inaccessible, and no promotional emails or bonus offers will be sent to you. A self-break cannot be shortened once activated — this ensures your commitment is upheld.

Permanent Self-Exclusion — A Bold Final Step

If you have decided to stop gambling altogether, permanent self-exclusion is an option we support without any judgement. Your account will be closed, all marketing data will be deleted, and any attempt to re-register will be blocked. Any eligible balance will be returned to you. This takes courage, and everyone at poker games fully respects and supports your decision.

FAQ

Responsible Gaming FAQ

For deposit limit decreases (e.g., from RM500/week to RM300/week), the change takes effect immediately. For limit increases (e.g., from RM300/week to RM500/week), a mandatory 7-day waiting period applies. This ensures that any decision to raise your limit is made with careful consideration rather than on impulse.

Your account balance remains safe throughout your self-exclusion period. You won't be able to access or use it to play during that time, but it won't be lost. Once the period ends and you log back in, your balance will still be there — ready to withdraw or use to play again.

Yes, these tools are designed to be effective. Deposit limits and loss limits are technically enforced by the system — they don't rely on willpower alone. Self-break and self-exclusion cannot be easily reversed early, ensuring your commitment holds. That said, these tools work best when combined with self-awareness and, where needed, professional support.

No. Once permanent self-exclusion is activated, the poker games system will block any new account registration using the same details — name, MyKad number, phone number, and email address. This ensures your decision to stop is fully respected. Applying for self-exclusion means you've made a serious decision, and we honour that.

For immediate assistance with a gambling problem, you can reach the poker games support team 24/7 via live chat on the platform or by email at support@pokergames.bid. Our team is trained to provide initial support and can help you activate self-control tools right away. For professional long-term support, we recommend seeking help from a qualified mental health professional or counsellor.

The minimum age set by poker games is 18. This is an absolute requirement with no exceptions. During registration and KYC verification, we verify the age of all members. If a member is found to not meet this age requirement, the account will be closed immediately and all funds will be returned. We also encourage parents to take steps to prevent children from accessing online gambling platforms.
