Responsible Gambling

Sports betting should be a form of entertainment — never a way to make money, recover losses, or solve financial problems. PropHitter provides research and experimental model outputs only; we are not a sportsbook and we never accept or hold wagers or funds. Please bet only what you can afford to lose.

Warning signs

• Betting more than you can afford, or chasing losses with bigger bets.
• Spending more time or money on betting than you intended.
• Borrowing money, hiding betting, or feeling anxious or irritable about it.
• Betting to escape stress, or feeling unable to stop.

Bet responsibly

• Set time and money limits before you play, and stick to them.
• Never chase losses, and never bet money you need for essentials.
• Don't bet under the influence or to cope with difficult feelings.
• You must be 21+ (or the legal age in your jurisdiction) to wager.

Set limits & self-exclude

Licensed sportsbooks offer deposit limits, time-outs, and self-exclusion tools — set them directly in your sportsbook account. Many states also operate voluntary self-exclusion programs through their gaming regulator. The NCPG resources above can help you find the program for your state.

Helpline numbers and required wording vary by state and are changing during 2025–2026; confirm the current number for your jurisdiction.
