Responsible Gaming
Gambling should always be fun, not a way to make money or escape problems. Genghis Khan pokies is a high-volatility game, so we strongly encourage every player to gamble responsibly and within their means. This page explains how to stay in control and where to get help.
Golden Rules
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Set a deposit, loss and time limit before you start — and stick to it.
- Never chase losses. The odds do not change after a losing streak.
- Treat gambling as entertainment, not income.
- Take regular breaks and never play while stressed or under the influence.
Warning Signs
Consider seeking support if you spend more than you planned, hide your gambling from others, borrow money to play, or feel anxious when you are not gambling. Recognising these signs early makes a real difference.
Tools That Help
Most licensed operators offer deposit limits, session reminders, reality checks, cool-off periods and self-exclusion. Use them freely — they exist to keep your play safe and enjoyable.
