Responsible Gambling

Gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment — never a way to make money or escape from problems. This page provides information and resources to help Australian players gamble safely and responsibly.

Gambling Responsibly: Key Principles

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Set a strict budget before you start and never exceed it.
  • Treat gambling as entertainment, not income. The house always has an edge in the long run.
  • Set time limits. Use casino session timers and take regular breaks.
  • Never chase losses. Trying to win back lost money often leads to larger losses.
  • Don't gamble under the influence. Alcohol and drugs impair decision-making.
  • Keep gambling separate from finances. Never gamble with rent, grocery, or bill money.

Signs of Problem Gambling

You may have a gambling problem if you:

  • Gamble more than you intended or can afford
  • Feel anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
  • Use gambling to escape stress or emotional pain
  • Lie to friends or family about your gambling activity
  • Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling
  • Have tried to stop or cut back but been unable to
  • Let gambling affect your work, relationships, or health
