Our stance

Responsible Gambling

Black-jack.net exists so people can learn how blackjack works and practice for free. It is not a way to make money. The house has an edge. Strategy lowers that edge. It does not remove it, and it does not turn gambling into an income plan.

If you play for real money, you should be able to walk away. When gambling starts to cover bills, mood, or sleep, it has stopped being a game. Stop. Peluuri will talk to you, and it will talk to someone who is worried about you. The help is free and confidential, and in English when they can. We do not receive the call.

Before it gets worse

Set a limit you can lose
Decide the money and the time before you open a cashier. When either one is gone, stop. Do not move the number because the last hand felt close.
Take a break
A session that runs through sleep, work, or a bill is already too long. Close the table. The cards will still be there.
No under-18 marketing
We do not write casino pages for anyone under 18, and we do not dress blackjack as a way for a student to make rent.
Don't chase
A loss is not a debt the next shoe owes you. Raising the bet to get even is how a bad hour becomes a bad month.

If you play for money

1

Before you play

Pick an amount you can afford to lose and a time you will stop. Do not play to cover a bill, a mood, or a debt.

2

While you play

Stick to the limit. Do not drink through it. Do not open a second cashier because the first one said no.

3

If it stops being fun

Stop. Call 0800 100 101, Monday to Friday, 12:00 to 18:00. You can also bar yourself through the police self-exclusion service.

Where to get help in Finland

Call 0800 100 101, Monday to Friday, 12:00 to 18:00. This is Peluuri. The call is free and confidential, and it is for players and for people close to them, and in English when they can. You can also write to [email protected], or use the chat on weekdays from 12:00 to 15:00. The site is peluuri.fi.

0800 100 101 is not open at night. For emotional support at any hour, call the MIELI Crisis Helpline on 09 2525 0111. It answers every day, around the clock, and you can call without giving your name. MIELI does not charge for the conversation. If someone is in immediate danger, call 112.

The police publish a self-exclusion service. You can bar yourself for a period you set, or until you take yourself off the list. It does not let you bar one form of gambling and keep another. For a narrower limit, ask the operator. A bar on that list does not close an account at a casino that does not check it. Ask that casino to close the account as well. The police explain the service at poliisi.fi.

A limit you set with one casino does not close an account that casino does not run. We cannot self-exclude you from an operator. We do not take bets, and we cannot reverse a deposit.

A listing is not a licence

A casino listing on this site is not a statement that the casino holds a Finnish licence. Read the review, then read the operator's own terms before you deposit.

Questions

Does Black-jack.net hear that call?

No. The call goes to Peluuri. We do not receive it, and we cannot see who called.

Can you block me from a casino?

No. We do not run those sites. You can bar yourself through the police self-exclusion service, and you can ask each casino you use to close your account.

Is the practice on this site real money?

No. The tables here use fake chips. They are for learning. They are not a bankroll.
