Poker Players Admit Addiction, But Continue Playing Poker At Home
It has been a policy over recent years for casinos in America as well as around the world to liaise with gambling addiction programs in the hope of helping those who admit to their problem. There has been a self exclusion program to which a gambler that has recognized that he or she has a problem can elect to be barred from their local casinos. To start the process they must complete a form and provide a picture that will then be distributed to the security staff who will in turn stop them from accessing the casino in the future. This in turn could actually lead to an arrest for the gambler as they will be classed as a trespasser.
It came as quite a shock when the Golden Eagle Casino near Horton Kansas has put a stop to is exclusion program. The casino has now decided to end the exclusion program as they are finding it too difficult to manage. The program has been stopped as the casino is having problems identifying determined gamblers and they do not want to be responsible for failing to stop them.
The Golden Eagle Casino has stated that in no way does it want to support gamblers who may have a problem to return to their casino. They have however notified all the people registered with them that they can no longer be responsible for preventing them from entering the casino. The Kansas Coalition that was set up to deal with Problem Gambling is absolutely determined to stamp out any other casinos from following the Golden Eagle’s lead and is actively working with the casino to reign them back under the self exclusion program. A few raised voices have been heard because of the letters which were sent to the self excluded gamblers, as many are of the opinion that this was open encouragement to these ex-gamblers to come back to the casino.
