The More You Know
Ever wonder how the games you play really work? What about the odds of winning and losing? It’s smart to learn as much as possible about each game. The more you know, the better decisions you’ll make and the more fun you’ll have.
What kind of player are you?
Everyone has a different approach to gambling. GameSense offers a variety of tools and information to teach you how the games work, how to play, the odds, and how to set limits on time and money spent playing.
If gambling no longer feels like a game, it may be time to step away. In some cases, you may decide you need support in getting control of your gambling.
Signs of a gambling problem
Gambling Disorder is behavior which causes disruptions in any major area of life: psychological, physical, social or vocational. It is a progressive addiction characterized by increasing preoccupation with gambling, a need to bet more money more frequently, restlessness or irritability when attempting to stop, “chasing” losses, and loss of control manifested by continuation of the gambling behavior in spite of mounting, serious, negative consequences.
