Responsible Gaming

Responsible gaming means understanding the risks, making informed decisions and staying in control of how much time and money you spend. This page provides practical information to help players in Australia maintain healthy gambling habits.

Gambling should remain entertainment
Casino games are based on chance, and every result is determined by the game. There is no guaranteed strategy, system or pattern that can ensure a win. Previous results do not influence future results, and a losing streak does not mean that a win is due. Always treat the money used for gambling as an entertainment expense that may be lost.

Gambling should not be used to pay bills, manage debt, replace employment income or improve your financial position. Only spend money that you can comfortably afford to lose after essential expenses have been covered. If gambling begins to affect your budget, relationships, work, study or wellbeing, take a break and consider seeking independent support.
Before you play
- Set a spending limit before starting and avoid exceeding it.
- Decide how long you intend to play and take regular breaks.
- Do not gamble when you are upset, tired, stressed or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
- Do not borrow money, use credit intended for essential costs or sell possessions to fund gambling.
- Never chase losses by increasing your stakes or playing for longer.
- Remember that gambling outcomes are random and cannot be controlled.
A clear plan can make it easier to keep gambling within safe personal boundaries. Consider writing down your budget and time limit before you begin. If you reach either limit, stop playing, even if you are winning or believe a favourable result may be close.
Tools to help you stay in control
Responsible gaming tools can help you make decisions before emotions or excitement affect your judgement. Depending on the account features available to you, you may be able to set financial or time-based limits, review your activity, take a temporary break or request account restrictions. Check the relevant account or gaming settings and choose limits that reflect your personal circumstances.
Consider setting limits for
- Deposits, so the amount added to your account stays within your planned budget.
- Wagers or losses, to help prevent spending more than you intended.
- Playing time, so sessions do not continue beyond the period you planned.
- Account access, including a temporary break when you need time away from gambling.
- Notifications or activity information, so you can remain aware of your gambling behaviour.
Limits are most effective when they are set before you start playing. Choose an amount and period that are realistic, and do not set a limit simply because you expect to recover losses. A limit is a personal safety measure rather than a target to reach. If a limit has been reached, stop and wait until the relevant period has ended rather than looking for another way to continue.
Taking a break or closing your account
If you feel that a short break would be helpful, use the available account restriction or break option where possible. For a longer-term concern, consider requesting self-exclusion or account closure in accordance with the applicable process. During a break or self-exclusion period, do not create another account or use another person's account to continue gambling. These actions can undermine the purpose of the break and make it harder to regain control.
If you are unsure which setting is appropriate, review the information available through your account or contact the relevant support channel through the website. Do not share your account with another person, and keep your login details secure.
Recognising when gambling may be a problem
Problem gambling can develop gradually. It may affect people from any background and is not always easy to recognise at first. You may wish to pause and review your habits if gambling feels difficult to control or begins to create stress in other areas of your life.
Possible warning signs
- Spending more time or money gambling than you originally planned.
- Thinking about gambling frequently or feeling restless when you cannot play.
- Trying to win back money after a loss or increasing stakes to recover earlier losses.
- Hiding gambling activity, deposits, losses or account statements from family and friends.
- Borrowing money, missing payments or using funds needed for rent, food, bills or other essentials.
- Feeling anxious, guilty, irritable or unhappy because of gambling.
- Gambling to escape personal problems, loneliness, stress or difficult emotions.
- Neglecting work, study, health, relationships or other responsibilities.
- Attempting to stop or reduce gambling but returning to it repeatedly.
- Continuing to gamble despite knowing that it is causing financial or personal harm.
One warning sign does not automatically mean that you have a gambling disorder, but it is a useful reason to stop and consider your next step. Speak honestly with someone you trust and take a break from gambling. Keeping the issue private can make it feel more difficult to manage, while early support may help prevent further harm.
If you are concerned about someone else
You may notice changes in a family member, friend or colleague before they recognise them. Possible signs include unexplained financial difficulties, secretive behaviour, mood changes, missed commitments or repeated requests for money. Approach the person calmly and without judgement. Focus on what you have observed, listen to their concerns and encourage them to speak with a qualified support service. Avoid lending money to cover gambling losses or helping them continue gambling.
Getting help and protecting young people
If gambling is causing financial, emotional or relationship difficulties, support is available. Consider speaking with a qualified counsellor, financial counsellor, healthcare professional or gambling support service in your state or territory. These services can help you understand your options, create a plan, manage financial stress and address the reasons gambling may have become difficult to control.
You do not need to wait until a crisis occurs before asking for help. If you feel overwhelmed, contact someone you trust and explain that you need support. If gambling has contributed to immediate financial or personal danger, seek urgent assistance from the appropriate emergency or crisis service in your area.
Age and account responsibility
Gambling is only for people who meet the applicable legal age requirements. Do not allow anyone under the legal gambling age to access your account, use your device to gamble or observe gambling as a substitute for participation. Parents and carers should use device controls, payment protections and account security measures to reduce the risk of young people accessing gambling services.
Keep your login details private and use account security features where available. Do not share payment methods or allow another person to gamble through your account. If you believe that a minor has accessed your account or that your account is being used by someone else, stop using the account and follow the available account support process.
A practical responsible gaming checklist
- Confirm that you are within the legal age requirement before gambling.
- Set a budget using only money available for entertainment.
- Set a time limit and schedule breaks before beginning a session.
- Keep track of deposits, wagers and losses rather than relying on memory.
- Never chase losses or gamble with borrowed money.
- Stop immediately if gambling stops feeling enjoyable or manageable.
- Use a break, limit, self-exclusion or account closure option when needed.
- Talk to a trusted person or qualified support service if you have concerns.
- Do not create additional accounts or use another person's account during a restriction.
- Review your gambling habits regularly and change your plan if your circumstances change.
Lucky Wins Casino encourages players to make informed choices and to use responsible gaming measures whenever they are needed. Gambling is a personal choice, but staying safe requires honest self-assessment and clear boundaries. If those boundaries are becoming difficult to maintain, the safest choice is to stop gambling and seek support.
