Questions with Solutions 2024

- answer There are 45,000 "gaming" machines in Oklahoma.
Tens of thousands of Oklahoma citizens work in the industry.
The gaming industry in Oklahoma takes in about two billion dollars per year.
Taxes from gambling support education, healthcare and other state programs.
Millions and millions of dollars come into the state from all forms of gambling, and those
dollars benefit a lot of people.

The majority of people have fun gambling and are not hurt by it. - answer These people
treat gambling as just another entertainment option that costs money. Like spending
money on a movie or buying a new game.
They budget what they can afford to spend on gambling like they budget what they can
afford to spend on any night out.
They stop when they've reached that limit.
They understand that gambling can be dangerous to the pocketbook.
They understand that gambling can hurt people and families if it gets out-of-hand.

- answer10-15% of adolescents between 12 - 17 are at risk of developing a serious
gambling problem.
4-7% of this group already show serious patterns of uncontrolled gambling.
These adolescents don't know how to treat gambling as entertainment - like that movie
and meal out with friends we mentioned.

- answerIn Oklahoma there's a greater chance you'll become a problem gambler than
in any other place in the world!
Living within fifty miles of a gambling opportunity doubles the chance of becoming a
problem gambler when you are older.
Oklahoma has more casinos than any other state, so there's a greater chance you are
closer to one if you live there.
If you begin to gamble when you are 12-17, you are more likely to develop problems
with pathological gambling than if you began gambling as an adult.

How people get hurt gambling: - answerThey don't understand how the gambling
industry skillfully influences customers to spend more.
Because of a family member with a gambling problem.
They don't know how to recognize when gambling begins to affect their lives and the
lives of the people around them.
They can't stop gambling - even when they know their gambling is hurting their lives and
the lives of the people around them.

, There is no difference between "gaming" and "gambling." - answerThe gambling
industry decided to change the name of their industry from "gambling" to "gaming" in
order to make it sound harmless and fun.
The name change is a good example of smart marketing by the gambling industry.

Everybody talks about "betting." What, exactly, is a "bet?"

Generally when you bet, you are saying you know the right answer. - answer"I'll bet he'll
be late to school today."
"I'll bet I can beat you to the end of the street."
"I'll bet you'll pull the Ace from the deck of cards."

Gambling really has two meanings: - answerFirst: You gamble when you bet on an
uncertain outcome. You think you know the right answer, but the answer is uncertain.
Even if you're not risking anything on the bet, you are gambling.

Here's what we mean:

You go to one of those "free" online gambling sites that let you 'practice' gambling.
You get to try a lot of games without having to pay anything if you lose.
You don't receive anything when you win.
You're not risking any money.
But you are still gambling.

Second: You also gamble when you take a risk in the hope you will gain something.

"I'll buy lunch if you can beat me to the corner," you might say to a friend. "If I win, you
buy."
"I'll pay for the movie if you get a better grade on the gambling test."

Big Question: Exactly What Is 'Risk?' - answerHere's the best definition of "risk," right
from a dictionary:

"Risk" is exposure to danger, harm or loss.
And gambling can have a lot of risk! Or can it?

Some bets don't have much risk. Some bets have really serious and life-changing risk.

- answerWhat's the difference between gambling in everyday life - like when you decide
to take one job over another job, or when you buy stocks - and gambling at a casino or
on a slot machine?


In the actual business of gambling, the gambling business is 100% guaranteed to "win"
over time.
