Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Parimatch on eventstreet.in, we believe that gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. It should be approached as a form of leisure activity with money you can afford to lose. We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting our players' well-being.
Age Verification
Parimatch is strictly for players aged 18 years and above or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher. We require all players to verify their age before accessing our services. If you are under the legal age to gamble, please do not use our platform.

- Chasing Losses: Repeatedly trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
