CLEVELAND — Football season is in full swing. At the beginning of 2023, the state of Ohio legalized sports betting on these games. Not even a full year later, sports betting is popular in Northeast Ohio.
Ohio for Responsible Gambling said there has been a 70% increase in calls for help with problem gambling in 2023 versus 2022. Paul Estep started gambling years ago in casinos for fun. "I ended up spending my rent money, and I lost my family that way. Ended up losing my vehicle, lost my license, lost my jobs," said Paul Estep from Toledo.
With the ease of sports betting this football season, the Problem Gambling Network of Ohio suggests setting limits on time and money spent on apps. If your loved one or friend is experiencing a change in mood, it might be time for a conversation.
