 Responsible Gaming
If playing the games is no longer fun for you
or someone you know, it's time to stop, think, and ask for
help.
We appreciate your patronage. But most of all,
we value you as a person.
If gaming is disrupting your life and affecting
your family or your job, it's time to stop and talk to people
who can help you.
Addiction to gaming affects people in all walks
of life, all ethnic groups, all religious faiths and all economic
levels. Addictions aren't unique to gaming either. Some people
can't stop using their credit cards, others over eat, others
don't know when to stop drinking.
If you feel you have a problem, we want to help.
If you or someone you know answers yes to
any of these questions, it might be time to seek advice and
help.
- Have you often gambled
longer than you had planned?
- Have you often gambled until your last dollar
was gone?
- Have thoughts of gambling caused you to
lose sleep?
- Have you used your income or savings to
gamble while letting bills go unpaid?
- Have you made repeated, unsuccessful attempts
to stop gambling?
- Have you broken the law or considered breaking
the law to finance your gambling?
- Have you borrowed money to finance your gambling?
- Have you felt depressed or suicidal because
of your gambling losses?
- Have you been remorseful after gambling?
- Have you gambled to get money to meet your
financial obligations?
