Responsible Gambling

Pokies are entertainment, not income. Gambling is for adults aged 18 or over, and it should never be used to solve money problems.

Set limits first

• Decide a budget before you start and keep to it.
• Set a time limit and take regular breaks.
• Never chase losses or gamble with money needed for bills.
• Avoid gambling when tired, stressed or after drinking.

Warning signs

• Spending more than you planned.
• Hiding your gambling from family or friends.
• Borrowing money to play.
• Feeling anxious or irritable when you are not playing.
