RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING

KEEPING IT FUN

Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin advocates the American Gaming Association's message to "Keep it Fun" while visiting any of our gaming establishments.

Whether you play slots, craps, blackjack, roulette or any other game in a casino, it is important to remember that games of chance are based on random outcomes and always favor the casino. These games of chance are a form or entertainment, at a price to you, the player. Casino gaming should not be considered a way to make money.

Gambling has become an accepted part of America's mainstream culture, comparable to leisure activities such as attending movies, athletic events and the theater. A large majority of Americans who gamble do so recreationally without adverse consequences. However, for some, gambling is no longer entertainment, becoming something they need to do rather than something they want to do.

NEED HELP

Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin offers the following options:

Our self exclusion program allows guests to exclude themselves from any Ho-Chunk Gaming facility for a minimum of 12 months. To self exclude you will need to download and fill out our self exclusion form and deliver to any Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin location.

Click Here to Download the Self Exclusion Document

Removal from our mailing list may be requested at any time be completeing a form at the Rewards Club Booth. Please allow 3-4 weeks to stop receiving materials.

MORE HELP

If you need more assistance beyond what we offer please contact the Wisconsin Council on Problem Gambling.

24-Hour Helpline | 800.426.2535
Website | www.wi-problemgamblers.org

The Wisconsin Council on Problem Gambling has a 24-hour helpline that provides information and referrals for gamblers, family members and concerned friends or employers of gamblers who have financial, legal or other difficulties because of gambling.

SELF-HELP INFORMATION
The Wisconsin Council on Problem Gambling can confidentially refer you to current Self-Help Information (such as local meetings of Gamblers Anonymous and Gam-Anon), Treatment Provider Referrals, Crisis Center Information, In-Patient Centers and many other community resources.
