Responsible Gaming

The state of Michigan is committed to ensuring sports betting is offered within the state in a safe, fun, and entertaining way.

Rules of Responsible Gambling

The decision to gamble is a personal choice. No one should feel pressure to gamble - from others or themselves. Gambling should not be perceived as essential to having a good time. There are times when people should not gamble. Certain emotional states can heighten the risks associated with gambling. Avoid gambling when feeling lonely, angry, depressed, stressed, or when coping with the death of a loved one. Similarly, gambling should not be used as a way to solve personal or family problems, or to impress others. Never gamble when it interferes with work or family responsibilities, when in recovery for addictive disorders or dependencies, when the gambling is illegal, or when trying to make up for prior gambling losses.
