Responsible Gaming

Gambling should always be a form of entertainment, never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. At bundabergfutsal.com, we want your experience with online poker in Australia to remain safe, enjoyable, and within your control. Please take a moment to read the following information and use the tools available to protect yourself.

Age Verification

Online gambling is strictly restricted to individuals aged 18 years or older (or the local legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction, which in Australia is 18). We do not target, encourage, or accept participation from minors. If you are under the legal gambling age, you must not access any gambling services promoted on this website.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you care about, it may be time to seek help:

• Chasing losses – trying to win back money you have lost by gambling more.
• Hiding or lying about your gambling habits to family, friends, or colleagues.
• Gambling with money meant for essential expenses such as rent, bills, or food.
• Feeling anxious, guilty, or irritable when not gambling or when trying to cut down.
• Borrowing money, selling possessions, or taking out loans to fund gambling.
• Losing interest in hobbies, work, or relationships because of gambling.
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to feel the same excitement.
• Being unable to stop or reduce gambling despite repeated attempts.

Self-Help Tools

Most reputable online poker platforms in Australia offer practical tools to help you stay in control. We strongly encourage you to set these limits before you start playing:

• Deposit Limits – Restrict how much money you can deposit into your account over a day, week, or month.
• Loss Limits – Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set period. Once reached, you cannot continue playing until the limit resets.
• Reality Checks – Receive on-screen reminders at regular intervals showing how long you have been playing and how much you have spent.
• Self-Exclusion – Temporarily or permanently block your own access to a gambling account or site. In Australia, you can also self-exclude from all licensed online gambling operators via the national self-exclusion register.
