Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At Sonjevaz Casino & Hotel, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming. While gambling is an enjoyable entertainment option for most people, we recognize that for some, it can become a problem. We believe in providing our guests with the resources they need to make informed decisions about their gambling activities.

Recognizing the Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Here are some warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem:

Spending more time or money than intended

Gambling longer than planned or spending more money than budgeted.

Chasing losses

Trying to win back money already lost by continuing to gamble.

Borrowing money to gamble

Taking loans, using credit cards, or borrowing from friends to finance gambling.

Neglecting responsibilities

Neglecting work, family, or personal obligations due to gambling.

Emotional distress

Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling or after gambling.

Secrecy about gambling

Hiding gambling activities from family and friends or lying about the extent of gambling.

Tools for Responsible Gaming

Sonjevaz offers several tools to help our guests gamble responsibly:

Self-Exclusion Program

Our voluntary self-exclusion program allows guests to restrict their access to our casino for a specified period or permanently. During this time, you will be removed from all marketing lists and denied casino privileges, check cashing, and credit.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your player's card to control your spending.

Time Limits

Establish time limits for your gaming sessions to ensure you maintain a healthy balance with other activities.

Reality Checks

We provide periodic notifications to remind you how long you've been playing, helping you stay aware of your time spent gambling.

Account History

Access your gaming history to review your play patterns and spending habits.
