Introducing our
The game is just a game... it’s how you play that makes it fun, or frustrating,
or dangerous. It’s true for all types of games - including gambling. Less than
three percent of Oregonians may have a gambling problem - but when they
play, it’s more than a game. The way they play puts them and their families
at financial and emotional risk.
