- Regular credit limit increase requests
- Excessive credit card and/or cash machine use
- Requests to borrow money from other guests and/or staff
- Significant changes in betting pattern
- Losing regard for health and/or hygiene
Ovations Casino employees are trained to recognize the signs of problem gambling, and will offer assistance where they see fit.
