Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At 35 Hams Road, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Casino games are designed with a house edge, which means the odds always favour the casino in the long run. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Gambling in Australia is restricted to individuals aged 18 years and over (or the applicable legal age in your state or territory). By using our website and accessing casino services, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction. We do not knowingly permit access to minors.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following behaviours in yourself or someone else, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, bills)
- Experiencing relationship problems due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Repeatedly trying to cut down or quit gambling without success
- Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, or depression
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Missing work, study, or social commitments due to gambling
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most responsible casinos offer tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a cap on the amount you're willing to lose in a session or over time
- Reality Checks: Receive notifications during play sessions to remind you how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
- Time Limits: Set automatic session time limits to help you take breaks
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing the casino or gambling websites
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
