Set a firm gambling budget before you start. Decide in advance how much you are comfortable spending in a given week or month โ and treat that figure as a non-negotiable ceiling, not a target. A sensible starting point for most recreational players in Bangladesh is between เงณ500 and เงณ2,000 per week, depending on personal financial circumstances. Never gamble with money earmarked for rent, utilities, food, or family obligations.
Divide your bankroll into session amounts. Rather than depositing your entire weekly budget at once, split it into two or three separate sessions. This creates natural stopping points and prevents a single bad run from wiping out your entire budget in one sitting. If you have เงณ1,500 for the week, consider three sessions of เงณ500 each on different days.
Apply the 1โ5% per-bet rule. On any single bet or slot spin, stake no more than 1โ5% of your current session bankroll. If your session fund is เงณ500, keep individual bets between เงณ5 and เงณ25. This approach extends your playing time, reduces variance, and ensures that a losing streak does not end your session prematurely.
Know when to walk away โ after wins and after losses. Set a win target before each session (for example, 50% profit on your session fund) and a loss limit (for example, 40% of session fund). When you hit either threshold, stop. Chasing losses is the single most common reason recreational players overspend. Equally, locking in a profit and finishing ahead is a discipline that separates sustainable players from those who give everything back.
Track your play history. Keep a simple log โ a notebook or spreadsheet โ recording your deposits, session results, and withdrawals. Reviewing this data monthly gives you an honest picture of your gambling activity and helps you spot patterns before they become problems. If you find losses consistently exceed your budget, that is an important signal to pause and speak with a support resource. Visit our Responsible Gaming page for tools and guidance.
