Responsible Gambling

Play smart. Stay in control. Know when to step away.

Our position

XPloit is not a gambling operator. We are an educational poker training platform. We do not facilitate, host, or process real-money poker games or any form of wagering.

However, we recognize that many of our users play poker for real money, and we take our responsibility seriously to promote awareness of problem gambling and to provide access to resources for those who may need help.

Responsible gambling guidelines

If you play poker for real money, we encourage you to follow these guidelines:

  • Set limits. Decide in advance how much time and money you are willing to spend, and stick to those limits.
  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never use rent money, bill money, or borrowed funds for gambling.
  • Don't chase losses. Losing is a normal part of poker. Trying to win back losses often leads to bigger losses.
  • Take breaks. Step away regularly. Fatigue and tilt lead to poor decisions.
  • Don't gamble under the influence. Alcohol and drugs impair judgment and decision-making.
  • Balance gambling with other activities. Gambling should not be your primary form of entertainment or income.
  • Be honest with yourself. If gambling is causing stress, anxiety, or financial problems, it may be time to seek help.

Warning signs of problem gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Consider seeking help if you:

  • Spend more time or money gambling than you intended
  • Feel restless or irritable when trying to cut back on gambling
  • Have tried to stop gambling but can't
  • Lie to family or friends about your gambling
  • Borrow money or sell things to finance gambling
  • Neglect work, school, or family responsibilities because of gambling
  • Gamble to escape problems or relieve negative feelings
  • Chase losses by gambling more to try to recover money you've lost
  • Feel the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
  • Have jeopardized or lost a relationship, job, or educational opportunity due to gambling

If any of these apply to you, please reach out to one of the resources below. Help is available, free, and confidential.
