Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At vote4drangelina.com, we believe that online pokies and gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling to recover losses or to make money, it's time to seek help.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Set a budget you can afford to lose and stick to it.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your Australian state/territory) to use our services. Gambling is not permitted for minors under any circumstances. By accessing our site, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be an issue:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
• Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
• Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount of time or money spent
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or guilty about gambling
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money for excitement
• Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop gambling
• Neglecting family, work, school, or other important responsibilities
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Loss of interest in hobbies and activities you once enjoyed
