Responsible Gambling
presents casino entertainment as an adult leisure activity. It should be planned, affordable and never treated as income, recovery from losses or emotional escape.
Core principles
- Only gamble if you are 18 or older and legally allowed to participate.
- Set a money limit before you start and do not increase it after losses.
- Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from the gaming area.
- Never gamble with money needed for rent, bills, food, travel or family responsibilities.
- Do not gamble when stressed, intoxicated, angry or trying to recover losses.
Warning signs
Consider stepping away and seeking support if you hide gambling from others, borrow money to play, chase losses, feel restless when not gambling, or find that casino sessions affect work, sleep, relationships or wellbeing.
Tools that may help
Practical tools can include spending limits, time reminders, voluntary breaks, self-exclusion options, blocking software, bank gambling blocks and support from someone you trust.
For hotel guests
Guests can choose non-gaming plans such as spa appointments, dining, mixology classes, sky bar reservations and city activities. A casino-hotel stay should remain balanced.
Support direction
For confidential help in Australia, contact recognised gambling support services in your state or territory, speak with a qualified counsellor, or seek urgent assistance if you feel at risk of harm.
