GameSense Advisors Return to Casinos and Community Gaming Centres Starting as Early as July 1, 2021

Published

Starting as early as July 1, 2021, players can once again safely connect in person with GameSense Advisors, BCLC’s player-health specialists, as they return to casinos and community gaming centres.

Players who have visited a B.C. casino or community gaming centre are likely familiar with GameSense Advisors who staff GameSense Information Centres: They are a friendly presence to help players keep gambling fun through understanding how the games work, creating time and money limits and providing support to those who want to take a break.

“Our GameSense Advisors are eager to be back on site after more than a year, to reconnect with players and support healthy play,” says Dr. Jamie Wiebe, BCLC’s Director of Player Health. “GameSense Advisors are excellent listeners and whether players stop by the GameSense Information Centre to chat about their day, how the games work, or odds of winning, we know that these interactions result in players feeling more informed and connected to available resources, and further support if needed.”

Some important tips for returning to gambling venues:

  • Know your time and spending limits before you get there
  • Take breaks, grab a snack or some fresh air
  • Treat it as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money
  • Take time to get to know the GameSense Advisor

You can also reach GameSense Advisors by telephone at 1-866-815-0222, or online chat on PlayNow.com from 7 a.m. to 12 a.m. PST.

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.

Let me be perfectly clear

Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.

Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.

We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.

We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.

To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.

 

Sincerely

Matt Zamroźniak

Chief Executive Officer

Prime Skill Games Inc.
