Awareness about Problem Gambling and its Indicators
Problem Gambling or “ludomania” is a behavior where a person feels the need to gamble excessively which affects the gambler, his family and work in harmful ways. Among the signs that an individual may be addicted to gambling are:
- Lying to conceal the extent of involvement with gambling.
- Gambling often with increasing amounts of money.
- Feeling irritable or restless when attempting to cut down on or to stop gambling.
- Jeopardizing or losing relationships, job or career due to gambling.
Player Exclusion Program
This program is implemented to provide patrons who feel that relatives or they themselves are developing a problem with gambling with the option to bar them from all gaming venues or sites. There are two types of player exclusion:
- Self-Exclusion – http://www.pagcor.ph/regulatory/pdf/Self-Exclusion-Application-Form.pdf
