PokerBaazi, one of the leading online poker sites in India, has launched a new service as part of a series of new initiatives aimed at curbing the negative effects of excessive gaming.
The new initiative is known as “Baazi Care” and comes with tools and features that help players stay within the lines of responsible gambling, therefore ensuring that their health and wellbeing are not put at risk while playing.
With the launch of the new responsible gaming service, players at PokerBaazi will now be able to do the following:
# Set Deposit Limits
Players can now set limits on their deposits and restrict the number of transactions they make in a given period. This will prevent them from stretching their game sessions for too long and will help them avoid behaviours indicative of problem gambling, such as chasing losses.
# Limit Stakes on Cash/OFC Tables
This feature lets players set certain limits with regards to the stakes they play on cash or OFC tables. Players may play within 20-40 times the buy-in, but in the event of a losing streak, they are advised to lower the stakes.
# Take A Break
Sometimes, playing online poker can become so addictive that it interrupts a player’s personal life. Things can get worse, as some players go into debt or are forced to spend their savings to fund their reckless gaming habits. PokerBaazi helps users to avoid being trapped in this situation by recommending a break from playing. This way, they will have much-needed time to reflect, rejuvenate and make better decisions.
# Seek Help From Baazi Care Counselors
If players find it hard to eliminate their self-destructing behaviours owing to excessive playing, Baazi Care counselors are ready to extend their service and offer support. All you have to do is to contact the PokerBaazi team, and your concerns will then be relayed to the counselors who will help and guide you in overcoming your struggles.
# Social Causes
PokerBaazi has remained true to its commitment of providing a safer and healthier gaming environment for its players. Apart from that, the brand also supports many different social causes, including environmental awareness, education and disaster relief.
PokerBaazi has partnered with non-profit organisation Khushi in giving underprivileged girls access to education. It also worked with Round Table India on environmental awareness and preserving the world for the future generations.
The company’s founder Navkiran Singh said they will roll out more initiatives in the near future.
