Problem gambling includes all gambling behavior patterns that
compromise, disrupt or damage personal, family or vocational pursuits.
The essential features are increasing preoccupation with gambling, a
need to bet more money more frequently, restlessness or irritability
when attempting to stop, "chasing" losses, and loss of control
manifested by continuation of the gambling behavior in spite of
mounting, serious, negative consequences. In extreme cases, problem
gambling can result in financial ruin, legal problems, loss of career
and family, or even suicide. For more information on criteria for
