Responsible Gambling
At ChickenRoad2.au, we take responsible gambling seriously. Our site is designed for entertainment and information purposes. Gambling should always be a fun leisure activity — never a financial strategy or an escape from personal problems.
Gambling Responsibly: Core Principles
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
- Set strict time and money limits before you start
- Never chase losses — this is the most common path to problem gambling
- Take regular breaks during sessions
- Do not gamble under the influence of alcohol or when emotionally distressed
- Balance gambling with other leisure activities
- Never borrow money to gamble
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling may be present if you experience any of the following:
- Spending more money or time on gambling than intended
- Hiding your gambling from friends or family
- Gambling to win back money you have lost
- Feeling irritable or anxious when not gambling
- Neglecting work, family, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
If any of these apply, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Exclusion Tools
Most licensed online casinos offer self-exclusion tools that allow you to restrict your access for a set period. BetStop is Australia's National Self-Exclusion Register — registering prevents you from gambling with participating operators for a chosen period (1 to lifetime).
