Extractions: Links to external websites not maintained by the Montana Department of Justice The 1999 National Gambling Impact Study Commission Final Report found that, of the 125 million adult Americans who gamble, 7.5 million were problem or pathological gamblers. A number of different terms have been applied to problem gambling, including "abuse" and "addiction." Problem gambling is behavior that damages relationships, runs up large debts and may lead to crime. People with gambling problems are found in every demographic group. Behaviors that signal problem gambling include a preoccupation with gambling, a need to gamble with increasing amounts of money and trying to make up losses by additional gambling. It is not legal in Montana to use a credit card to gamble or run up a tab at a bar to pay for gambling activity. Gambling in Montana can only be done on a cash basis. A check or credit card may be used to obtain cash to participate in a gambling activity, but you may only present the cash needed to play the game as the game is being played. A check, credit card, note, IOU, or other evidence of indebtedness may not be offered or accepted as part of the price of participation in the gambling activity or of a debt incurred in the gambling activity.

Extractions: Most gamblers know when to stop. The sting of losing money can become painful enough to send even the highest roller home. A few people, however, will stake all they have on a game of chance and eventually, they lose. For the compulsive gambler, bad luck comes not from just losing a bet, but the inability to stop gambling. Compulsive gamblers are out of control. They will gamble against all odds. A roll of the dice, a spin of the roulette wheel or being dealt a hand of cards becomes more important than family, home or work. Compulsive gambling is an addiction. It can lead not only to financial ruin, but places an added burden on the happiness and well-being of family members. Of course, not all people who gamble are addicted. There are characteristic behaviors that may help people recognize when gambling has become compulsive. These behaviors include: Spending a lot of time gambling or thinking about it.

Your life is about to change dramatically. Finally, a new self-help book is available to help you quit gambling and stop losing all of your money! Although gambling is enjoyable entertainment and can provide unparalleled excitement, it can financially drain and ruin some people. This manual is a roadmap and workbook for the problem gambler or potential problem gambler, who can not control the amount of money he/she loses, to seriously give up on gambling. This work is based on over 25 years of experience in gambling by the author, who shares his insight with the reader. While attending college, the author began gambling at 18 in local New York City OTB parlors and New York horse racing tracks. Then he got caught up in casino gambling, when it debuted in Atlantic City. He also dabbled in most other forms of gambling, in lotto, poker, and sports betting. As much as the author loves to win, he hates to lose in gambling. So, after 25 years and losing a small fortune, he decided to give up on his quest of becoming a consistent winner. This book describes the way he finally coped with and quit gambling. There is also ample space for the reader to write down his/her own thoughts on how to quit gambling to personalize the manual for his/herself.
