Responsible Gambling Council sets up booth at OLG Casino

For many, gambling is nothing more than a fun hobby. But for those who struggle to play within their means, it often becomes a problem that can quickly spiral out of control.

For many, gambling is nothing more than a fun hobby. But for those who struggle to play within their means, it often becomes a problem that can quickly spiral out of control.

The Responsible Gambling Council wants people to know the risks and make informed choices when they choose to gamble. 

The organization has a booth set up at the OLG Casino. 

People who pass by can spin the wheel and answer a responsible gambling trivia question from one of the five corresponding categories. 

Project Coordinator Heather Li says many gamblers don't know when to stop, and this initiative is all part of problem gambling prevention week. 

Council staff are at the casino Friday until 9 p.m., and will return to the casino again on Saturday.
