Responsible Play #

FeltIQ is a bankroll tracker and coaching tool for poker players. It is not a gambling platform — no real money changes hands through our app, and we do not facilitate wagers.

Poker should be a skill game you enjoy. If it starts to feel like something else, the resources below are free, confidential, and available now.

A Quick Self-Check #

Any of these feeling true lately?

  • You play longer or for higher stakes than you planned, and talk yourself into it afterwards
  • You chase losses — adding a buy-in, moving up, staying past your stop-loss
  • You borrow money, sell things, or skip bills to keep playing
  • You hide how much you play, how long you play, or how much you lose
  • You get irritable, anxious, or restless when you can't play
  • Poker is the way you deal with stress, sadness, or sleep problems
  • A partner, friend, or family member has asked you to cut back and you said no

One "yes" is worth paying attention to. Two or more is worth a real conversation with someone trained — not with yourself.

Elsewhere #

If your country is not listed, search for your national gambling helpline or contact your regular general practitioner. In a crisis, contact your local emergency services or a general mental health helpline — problem gambling is often tangled up with anxiety, depression, or substance use, and help for one is help for all.

What FeltIQ Does to Support This #

A few things are built in because we think they are load-bearing, not optional:

  • Stop-loss drift detection. If you extend past your planned stop-loss across multiple sessions, your weekly coaching report will flag the pattern.
  • Responsible gambling limits. You can set session length, daily bankroll swing, and weekly play-time caps in Settings → Responsible play. Free for every tier.
  • Session data stays yours. You can export everything to CSV and delete your account at any time. No dark patterns, no win-back emails after you leave.
  • No ads, no affiliate links. We are a subscription product. We have no commercial reason to want you to play more than you want to play.

One Last Thing #

If you are the person who a friend or partner is worried about, the hardest step is admitting the conversation is worth having. You are not the only one. The helplines above speak to hundreds of people like you every day, and none of them are there to judge you.

If you are the friend or partner, thank you for reading this page. The resources above will take your call too.
