If you’re suffering from a gambling addiction or just don’t want to be tempted to place bets, there’s a way to ban yourself from any wagering.
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Legal sports gambling is almost here in Ohio. But if you’re suffering from a gambling addiction or just don’t want to be tempted to place bets, there’s a way to ban yourself from any wagering.
But starting Jan. 1, gambling will be available at sportsbooks, bars, grocery stores and on cell phones. Jessica Franks, a spokesperson for the Ohio Casino Control Commission, said the program needed to expand now that betting in Ohio is becoming more readily available. Many of the companies, like casinos and racinos, offer both types of betting. So, Time Out Ohio can’t ban someone from just sports betting or just traditional casino gambling, Franks said.
If you sign up for a one- or five-year ban, you can’t unban yourself until the time is up. People who sign up for a lifetime ban must wait at least five years before taking themselves off the list. To sign up, people will need to submit personal information, a government-issued ID and a photo of themselves.
