Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
Pokies and online gaming should only be enjoyed as a form of entertainment. They are games of chance with outcomes determined by random number generators. Never view gambling as a way to earn money, solve financial problems, or replace employment income. The house always has a mathematical edge, and losses are part of the experience.
