Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At Oscar Amherst, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Live dealer casinos should be a source of entertainment and enjoyment, never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all our players to gamble responsibly and within their means.
Age Verification
In Australia, you must be at least 18 years of age to participate in gambling activities. By accessing our website and engaging with live dealer casinos, you confirm that you are of legal gambling age in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour, please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling for longer periods than intended
- Experiencing mood changes, irritability, or anxiety when unable to gamble
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, school, or personal responsibilities
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts for the same excitement
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Most licensed live dealer casinos offer tools to help you maintain control of your gaming. We encourage you to use these features:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Enable notifications at regular intervals to remind you how long you've been playing
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling services
- Time-Out Periods: Take a break from gambling for a set duration
