Sports gambling has a nasty effect overshadowed by punters' huge losses

The Murphy Report (officially entitled You win some, you lose more) made 31 recommendations to reduce gambling harm, including a phased ban on online gambling advertising within three years, but as yet, no definitive regulations have been announced since the report’s publication 17 months ago.
