Responsible Gaming
Pokies are entertainment, never a way to earn money or fix money worries. We ask every player to set limits before the first spin.
Simple Habits
- Set a weekly budget and never top it up from savings or bill money.
- Choose a time limit for each session and take regular breaks.
- Do not chase losses with bigger stakes.
- Skip playing when you are upset, tired or have been drinking.
Warning Signs
- Spending more than you planned, again and again.
- Hiding your play from family or friends.
- Borrowing money to gamble.
- Feeling restless or irritable when you are not playing.
