House Tricks
Every gambling ad
has a trick.
People quitting gambling report the ads that follow them. We score each one for how hard it works on them, name the tricks in plain words, and block the advertiser for everyone.
Get You vs The House
- Free-bet bait: a "free bet" isn't free; you bet your own money to unlock it.
- Risk-free promises: nothing about betting is risk-free. The House always plans to win.
- Rush tactics: countdowns rush you past the moment you'd say no.
- Borrowed heroes: a sports star's face borrows trust the odds haven't earned.
The score runs from 0 to 10: how many of eight known tricks an ad uses, weighted by how much harm each does. Operators' names and logos are blurred on every card. Screenshots are read once and never kept.
