Responsible gaming

Bet for fun.
Never for the rent

PantherPick is built for entertainment and information — not as a way to make money. Betting should stay fun. Here's how to keep it that way, and where to get free help if it stops being fun.

Last updated: June 10, 2026

If you need help right now: call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-MY-RESET (1-800-426-2537) — free, confidential, 24/7 — or visit ncpgambling.org. You are not alone, and help works.

1Our promise

We will never promise guaranteed wins, pressure you to chase losses, or tell you to bet more than you can afford. Our picks are information and entertainment — what you do with them is your choice, and we want that choice to be a healthy one.

2Ground rules for healthy betting

  • Set a budget before you start — only money you can comfortably afford to lose, never money for bills, rent, or essentials.
  • Set time limits and take regular breaks.
  • Never chase losses. Trying to win back what you lost is the fastest way to lose more.
  • Don't bet under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or strong emotion.
  • Treat any winnings as a bonus, not income.
  • Keep betting one part of your life — not the center of it.

3Warning signs

It may be time to step back if you:

  • Bet more than you planned, or more than you can afford;
  • Chase losses or borrow money to keep betting;
  • Hide your betting from people close to you;
  • Feel anxious, irritable, or restless when you're not betting;
  • Let betting interfere with work, sleep, or relationships.

4Tools that help

  • Deposit & time limits — most licensed sportsbooks let you cap how much and how long you play.
  • Self-exclusion — you can voluntarily block yourself from betting platforms for a set period.
  • Reality checks — turn on reminders that show how long you've been playing.
  • Cancel anytime — you can end your PantherPick subscription whenever you want from your account.

5Where to get help

  • National Problem Gambling Helpline: 1-800-MY-RESET — call, text, or chat, 24/7, free and confidential.
  • National Council on Problem Gambling: ncpgambling.org
  • Gamblers Anonymous: gamblersanonymous.org

Help is also available for friends and family affected by someone else's gambling.

6Age & eligibility

PantherPick is strictly for adults aged 21 or older (or the legal betting age where you live, if higher), in jurisdictions where sports-betting information is lawful. We do not knowingly serve minors.

Information & entertainment — not a guarantee of profit

PantherPick provides data-driven analysis, not promises of profit. No betting strategy guarantees winnings. Bet only what you can afford to lose, set limits, and treat this as entertainment. Must be 21+ and located where sports betting is legal. If gambling stops being fun, call 1-800-MY-RESET.
