March Madness is one of the busiest times on the sports calendar.

It's also one of the most active for sports gambling, leading to concern over adults - young and old - becoming addicted to betting.

One Long Islander says he lost hundreds of thousands of dollars to sports gambling.

He is now a recovering gambling addict and has been in the Long Island Gamblers Anonymous program for just over a year.

The Long Island Problem Gambling Resource Center is also aware of the issue and stresses the importance of setting a limit for yourself if you plan on gambling responsibly.

If you think you or someone you know may have a gambling issue, there are resources available.
