At FishinFrenzy.com we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling for all Australian players. Gambling should always be an enjoyable form of entertainment – never a way to make money or escape problems.
The Golden Rules of Responsible Gambling
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Set a time and money limit before you start – and stick to it.
- Never chase losses.
- Gambling is not a strategy to recover financial problems.
- Balance gambling with other leisure activities.
- Do not gamble when you are upset, stressed or under the influence of alcohol.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Seek help if you recognise any of the following in yourself or someone you care about:
- Spending more than you can afford on gambling;
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling;
- Hiding gambling behaviour from family or friends;
- Neglecting work, study or family responsibilities;
- Feeling anxious, guilty or irritable about gambling;
- Inability to stop or reduce gambling despite wanting to.
