Throughout the world, gambling is enjoyed as
a recreational activity. The majority of people participate at levels
appropriate to their financial circumstances but for a small number of
people, gambling can become a problem.
Lasseters maintains a strong commitment to
responsible gambling. In 2003, we partnered with 14 other industry, government
and community bodies to form a Working Party responsible for developing
a Code of Practice for Northern Territory gambling providers. The Code
contains practices to be implemented to achieve industry 'best practice'
in the delivery of gambling services.
As a responsible Gaming Operator we actively
discourage minors who attempt to play at our gaming site. Age
checks are conducted by Lasseters staff to detect underage players.
- Age Verification
As we are a Government Licensed and Regulated
Casino, we request you provide us with proof of your name, age and
address within 90 days of becoming a cash player at our site. This
is a once only request, and you will not be required to provide it
again when playing at our site.
Failure of a player to provide suitable identification
to Lasseters within 90 days of becoming a cash player will result
in the closure of their account.
- Bet Limits
We realise that on occasions a Player may exceed
their personal spending limit. Therefore our site allows a player
to reduce their own bet limits so they do not exceed a limit that
is comfortable for them.
- Self Exclusion
The Self Exclusion is a facility to be used
if people feel they need to take a break from our site. Once Self
Exclusion has been placed, it cannot be removed. Self-Exclusion enables
players to exclude themselves from the site for the period selected.
During this time players cannot play cash games. If a player excludes
themselves three times in the life of their account they will be banned
from playing indefinitely and the balance of the account will be refunded.
Once a third and final self-exclusion
is initiated it cannot be revoked.

Counselling Services
Lasseters is aware that
occasionally some people develop problems with gambling. We have consulted
with Amity Community Services who understand and deal with people
in these situations on a regular basis. We have sponsored a web site
for Amity Community Services to assist people who recognise that they
may have a problem.
We encourage you to view the site and complete
the self-assessment form, which will help you to identify if a problem
exists.
