Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Cessnockstomp, we believe gambling should only ever be viewed as entertainment, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Like any form of entertainment, it should be enjoyed responsibly and within your means. The odds are always in favour of the casino, and you should only ever gamble with money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory) to use our services. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal age for gambling in Australia, please do not use our site.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a problem with gambling:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Spending more time and money on gambling than you intended
• Hiding or lying about your gambling activities
• Neglecting family, work, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or negative feelings
• Failed attempts to reduce or control your gambling
• Jeopardising important relationships or opportunities due to gambling
• Returning to gambling after periods of abstinence

If any of these resonate with you, please reach out for support immediately.
