Hi, Kenya! Do you ever find yourself placing a bet just out of boredom or to go along with your friends in a chat, and then regret it later? How can you learn to catch yourself in the act of these automatic actions in time and bet more thoughtfully?

That is great! This happens when gaming goes from being a hobby to an automatic reaction to a situation or peer pressure. An article on the Kenyan website Adibet about the 1xBalance initiative takes a detailed look at these psychological triggers. It suggests taking a special self-awareness test to understand what’s motivating you right now, set personal limits, and always keep your personal control separate from outside influences.
