This was the first study of its kind and it's nice to see that the conclusions did not support the rhetoric that gambling online is more addictive.
I agree with you Minnow. I know when I'm at a brick and mortar casino I'll be betting as long as I can, just tossing chips like candy, while online I'll put down a wager and watch the game. So even say a $100 wager on a baseball game that lasts 3 hours is far less significant than betting $10 a hand on blackjack for several hours or buying hundreds of dollars in chips to play texas hold'em. |
