Responsible Gaming
Last updated: January 2026
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At hamygroup.co.in, we believe that gambling — including games like Teen Patti — should only ever be a form of entertainment and leisure, never a way to earn money, solve financial problems, or escape from stress. The outcome of gambling games is based on chance, and no strategy, trick, or so-called "hack" can guarantee winnings. If you gamble, please do so responsibly, with money you can afford to lose, and treat any losses as the cost of entertainment — not as money that must be won back.
We encourage every visitor to read this page carefully and to use the tools and resources below if gambling ever stops feeling like fun.
Age Verification — 18+ Only
Gambling and access to gambling-related content is strictly for adults. You must be at least 18 years of age — or the legal gambling age in your state or union territory, whichever is higher — to use the services of any operator mentioned on this website. Please note that gambling laws in India vary by state, and real-money gaming is restricted or prohibited in several jurisdictions (including Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and others). It is your responsibility to know and follow the laws that apply where you live.
Licensed operators verify the age and identity of their players. We strongly advise parents and guardians to use parental control software and device restrictions to prevent minors from accessing gambling websites or apps.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Ask yourself honestly whether any of the following apply to you or someone you care about:
- Chasing losses — continuing to gamble to try to win back money you have lost
- Hiding your gambling — lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend
- Gambling with money you cannot afford — using money meant for rent, food, bills, education, or EMIs
- Borrowing money to gamble — taking loans, using credit cards, or borrowing from friends and family
- Neglecting responsibilities — missing work, college, or family obligations because of gambling
- Gambling to escape — playing to avoid stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or other problems
- Needing to bet more — requiring larger amounts to feel the same excitement
- Failed attempts to stop — trying to cut down or quit but being unable to
- Feeling restless or irritable when you are not gambling
- Risking relationships or your career because of your gambling behaviour
If you recognise two or more of these signs in yourself, we urge you to take a break and seek support using the resources below.
Self-Help Tools
Reputable gaming operators offer tools to help you stay in control. We recommend setting these up before you start playing:
- Deposit Limits — set a maximum amount you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly
- Loss Limits — cap how much you can lose within a set period; once reached, you cannot play further
- Wagering/Session Limits — restrict the total amount you can bet or the time you spend playing
- Reality Checks — on-screen reminders showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
- Time-Out / Cooling-Off Periods — take a short break (24 hours to several weeks) from your account
- Self-Exclusion — block yourself from a platform for a longer period (6 months, 1 year, or permanently)
- Payment Blocking — ask your bank or UPI app about blocking gambling transactions, or use third-party blocking software such as Gamban or BetBlocker
Remember: never gamble under the influence of alcohol or when feeling upset, and never think of gambling as a source of income.
