Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money, pay debts, or solve financial problems. The outcome of games like Chicken Road is based on chance, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Please set limits, stay in control, and never gamble more than you can comfortably afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age or the minimum legal gambling age in your province or territory in Canada to access this website or play Chicken Road. We reserve the right to request proof of age and to suspend or close any account where age verification cannot be confirmed.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can be difficult to recognize. Ask yourself or a loved one the following questions:
- Do you chase losses by gambling more to try to win back money you have lost?
- Do you hide your gambling from family, friends, or colleagues?
- Do you spend more time or money on gambling than you planned?
- Do you borrow money, sell possessions, or use funds intended for bills to gamble?
- Do you feel anxious, guilty, irritable, or restless when trying to cut back or stop gambling?
- Do you neglect work, school, relationships, or hobbies because of gambling?
- Do you lie about how often, how long, or how much you gamble?
- Do you continue gambling even after experiencing negative consequences?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be at risk of developing or already experiencing a gambling problem. Help is available.
