    Others saying that they were only for tokens.

    And other saying that you can't even redeem the tokens for prizes. I doubt an Australian would get excited about only tokens though. Good chance they had NFI they didn't actually win anything if that is true though.

    I think the idea was that the tokens had a value of about $5,000.

    Whether or not that could actually redeem that value, I don't know.

    Sooo got a bit drunk (and bored) last night so started playing the online slots and shit, lost most of my sports profits for the past few days which was a lil gutting. At least it was only profits I guess.

    Self excluded from everying but sports because fuck em/ my drunkness.

    seen a guy have about 3,000 in the Lucky Hearts

    Haha no. Given the nature of gambling, losses happen. Someone losing doesn't mean they have a problem. If it becomes anything more than entertainment then it's a problem IMO.

    Besides I have actions in place to prevent me from getting drunk and depositing heaps, I don't think I would but it's a feature so may as well have it active - deposit limit of $30 per week. So I could only actually lose $30 of my own money.....last night was profit from the last few or so days I hadn't got around to withdrawing.

    Yes. That is problem gambling by fucking definition.

    :lol: self exclusion.

    I've had a shocker last month. Reckon I'm about $1000 down.

    Profits were only up to $40 so only lost that. Sports betting there's money, skill and fun involved. Slots etc. There's only fun involved so I'm sticking to de sports. Weird thing is I'd probably never play a slot in real life (even when I go to Vegas). Nothing appeals about them and lots of people who have tried them, have said the same.

    I dunno maybe something you have to try before bagging.

    Pokies are for absolute losers. Avoid them like the plague. They are pure evil.

    Exactly....

    So I'm -$213, going down to the club tonight for Monday night footy, thinking about budgeting $37 to run through the cunts, if I lose, it's a 6 month hiatus at -250, but if/when I win, the milky bars are on me.

    Hoping for a milky bar.
