Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Ginossurf, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the movies or attending a sporting event. It should never be considered as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems.
Casino games are designed with a built-in house edge, which means that over time, the odds favour the casino. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set limits before you start playing.
Age Verification
Gambling is only legal for individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Australia. By accessing Richard Casino or any gambling platform through Ginossurf, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and meet the legal requirements to gamble in your jurisdiction.
If you are under 18, please do not proceed. Underage gambling is illegal and can cause serious harm.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling with more money to recover what you've lost
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essential expenses
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money to get the same excitement
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or to pay gambling debts
- Neglecting work, study, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Experiencing anxiety, irritability, or depression related to gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, it may be time to seek help.
