BetCheck: Your Responsible Gambling Safety Check
Launched in 2005, BetCheck is your responsible gambling safety check. This computerized tool allows people to compare their gambling habits with the "typical gambler". Visitors assess their gambling compared with the population at large, using items such as time spent, money spent, to asses a person’s risk level for problematic gambling. BetCheck is based on numbers – not judgements.
