Gambling Risks

GAMBLING INVOLVES RISK OF FINANCIAL LOSS. YOU MAY LOSE MONEY.

• Gambling should be treated as entertainment, not as a way to make money
• The house always has a mathematical edge (house edge)
• Over time, casinos win and players lose
• Progressive jackpots are extremely rare
• No system or strategy guarantees wins
• Past results do not influence future outcomes

Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. If gambling is causing problems in your life, seek help immediately:

Legal Status of Online Gambling in Australia

The legal status of online gambling in Australia is complex:

The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 prohibits Australian-based companies from offering online pokies to Australian residents
It is NOT illegal for Australian residents to gamble at offshore online casinos
There have been ZERO prosecutions of Australian players for using offshore casinos
The Australian government focuses on operators, not individual players

However:

• Offshore casinos operate under foreign licenses (Curacao, Malta, etc.)
• These casinos are not regulated by Australian authorities
• Consumer protections are less than Australian-regulated services
• Disputes must be resolved under foreign jurisdiction

We provide information about offshore casinos that accept Australian players. We do not provide legal advice. Users are responsible for understanding and complying with laws in their jurisdiction.
