Responsible Gaming

Introduction

At Demolition Brisbane, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Online gambling, including Stake Casino Australia, should be enjoyed purely as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose, and always maintain control over your gaming activities.

Age Verification

Online gambling in Australia is strictly for persons aged 18 years and over. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction before participating in any gambling activities. We do not knowingly permit underage gambling and encourage parents and guardians to use appropriate safeguards.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you experience any of the following signs, you may be developing a gambling problem. Please seek help immediately:

• Chasing losses: Attempting to recover lost money by gambling more
• Hiding gambling activity: Being secretive about the amount of time or money spent gambling
• Inability to stop: Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or control gambling
• Neglecting responsibilities: Gambling interferes with work, study, family, or relationships
• Gambling with borrowed money: Using credit, loans, or borrowed funds to gamble
• Mood swings: Irritability or mood changes when unable to gamble
• Increasing stakes: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
• Financial problems: Borrowing money, unpaid bills, or debt accumulation due to gambling
• Lying about gambling: Deceiving friends or family about gambling habits
• Using gambling to escape: Gambling to cope with stress, anxiety, or other problems

Self-Help Tools & Features

Most responsible online casinos, including Stake Casino Australia, offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you're willing to lose in a set period
• Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications about your time and money spent during gaming sessions
• Session Time Limits: Set automatic disconnection after a predetermined period
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling accounts

We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
