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. Call 293 232 02. The line is for players and for people close to them. 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 293 232 02, every day from 12:00 to 20:00. You can also ask to be added to the register of self-excluded persons.

Where to get help in Latvia

Call 293 232 02 every day, 12:00 to 20:00. This is the support line for people with a gambling problem and for people close to them. Specialists answer. You can also send a message at azartaatkariba.lv. A counsellor aims to answer a written message within two working days. The line is not open at night.

For emotional support at any hour, call 116 123. This is the state-funded crisis line. It is free and open every day, around the clock. Skalbes also answers 67222922 and 27722292 every hour. Those calls are confidential and anonymous. Their page is skalbes.lv. If someone is in immediate danger, call 112.

You can ask to be barred from gambling in Latvia, including interactive gambling, and from interactive lotteries. The State Revenue Service (Valsts ieņēmumu dienests) keeps that register. The shortest bar is 12 months from the day you are added. You can ask for longer. You cannot come off the list before the 12 months are over. After that, you can ask to be removed.

You can sign in with Latvija.lv and the bar is added at once. A written request you hand to the State Revenue Service is added on the next working day. A request you hand to a gambling venue in Latvia is passed on within three working days, and then added on the next working day. The bar covers gambling under Latvian rules. It does not close an account at a casino that does not use that register. The State Revenue Service explains the steps at vid.gov.lv.

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 Latvian 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 the gambling support line. 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 ask to be added to the register of self-excluded persons, 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.
