Losing too much money playing PowerBall? – Here’s when you know you need help
PowerBall is designed as a game of chance, but for some players, repeated participation can develop into harmful behaviour.
It’s important to recognise when playing the lottery stops being entertainment and starts becoming a financial or emotional burden.
Warning signs of gambling addiction include:
- Spending money on tickets that should be used for essential expenses.
- Increasing wager amounts because smaller wins no longer feel satisfying.
- Chasing losses — attempting to win back money already lost.
- Feeling anxious, guilty, or stressed after playing.
- Hiding lottery spending from family or friends.
- Borrowing money to continue playing.
These patterns may indicate a loss of control, and early intervention is crucial.
What to do if you suspect a gambling problem
- Set strict spending limits — and stick to them.
- Avoid playing when emotional, stressed, or trying to “escape” real-life problems.
- Speak to someone you trust about your concerns.
- Reach out to professional support organisations such as the South African Responsible Gambling Foundation (SARGF), offering confidential counselling and assistance.
If playing PowerBall is no longer fun, take a break. Responsible gambling protects your financial stability and overall wellbeing.
