Answer: Approximately 85% of U.S. adults have gambled at least once in their lives; 60% in the past year. Some form of legalized gambling is available in 48 states plus the District of Columbia. The two without legalized gambling are Hawaii and Utah.

Question: What is problem gambling?

Answer: 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.

Question: How do they work?

Answer: The quick answer is that they are linked lottery terminals where a central computer delivers a virtual “scratch ticket” to a player terminal, upon the request of a casino guest. Ever wonder why you have to press the button twice to play? On the first press you are purchasing the ticket, and on the second you are revealing the outcome.
