Responsible Gambling

18+ only

StrikePot is for adults aged 18 and over. Many partner sites set a higher minimum age or block some countries. If you are under 18, do not use gambling, case-opening or skin-betting sites, and do not use someone else's Steam account to access them.

Skins are money

CS2, Rust and TF2 skins can be sold for real money. Coins, gems, balance tokens and case keys on gambling sites are bought with skins, crypto or cards. Treat every deposit as money you can lose. A deposit bonus or a free case is not a reason to deposit more than you planned.

Set your limits first

• Decide how much you can afford to lose before you open a site, and stop there.
• Set a time limit. Coinflip, crash, roulette and case battles are fast rounds.
• Never chase losses by depositing again to win back what you lost.
• Do not gamble skins or money you need, or items you borrowed.
• Use the deposit limits, cool-off periods and self-exclusion settings offered by the site. If a site has none, that tells you something.

Warning signs

• Spending more skins, money or time than you intended.
• Feeling the need to bet more, or more often, to get the same excitement.
• Hiding gambling from friends or family, or lying about it.
• Selling items, borrowing or skipping bills to keep playing.
• Feeling anxious, irritable or low when you try to stop.

If any of these sound familiar, take a break and talk to someone. Help is free and confidential.

Block gambling sites

Ask each site to close or self-exclude your account. Website blockers and parental controls on your phone, browser or router can block gambling sites across your devices. Parents can also review a teen's Steam trade history and use Steam Family View.

How StrikePot works

StrikePot does not run any gambling service and never holds your skins or funds. We publish guides, codes and partner listings, and we may earn a commission through affiliate links. Featured order reflects commercial priorities, not a quality ranking. See how we check sites and our disclaimer.
