Responsible Gambling
At ElvisFrogInVegas.au, we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling practices for all Australian players. Gambling is meant to be an entertaining pastime – not a way to make money or solve financial problems.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Watch for these warning signs:
- Spending more money or time gambling than intended
- Gambling to recover losses ("chasing losses")
- Neglecting family, work or social commitments due to gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when not gambling
- Lying to family or friends about gambling activities
Tips for Responsible Play
- Set a budget: Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never use money allocated for bills, rent or food.
- Set time limits: Decide how long you'll play before you start and stick to it.
- Take regular breaks: Step away from the screen regularly to maintain perspective.
- Don't chase losses: Accept that losses are part of gambling. Never bet more to recover previous losses.
- Keep gambling fun: If it stops being enjoyable, stop playing immediately.
- Never gamble under the influence: Avoid gambling when consuming alcohol or medications that affect judgment.
Self-Exclusion Options
If you feel you need a break from gambling, you can self-exclude at any licensed Australian casino. The BetStop National Self-Exclusion Register allows you to self-exclude from all Australian online wagering services simultaneously.
