Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Tanksentry, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the movies or playing sports. It should never be considered a way to earn money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical advantage, and there is no guaranteed way to win.

If you find yourself gambling to make money or recover losses, it's time to seek help. Please reach out to one of the support organizations listed below.

Age Verification

Online gambling in Australia is only legal for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the legal age requirements in your jurisdiction before accessing any betting services featured on Tanksentry.

We do not knowingly permit access to minors. If you are under 18, please do not use any of the betting sites we recommend.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please review the following checklist. If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately:

• Chasing losses (gambling more to try to recover money you've lost)
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount of time or money spent
• Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, utilities, medication)
• Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities due to gambling
• Experiencing mood swings or irritability related to gambling
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
• Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
• Physical symptoms such as sleep disruption or anxiety related to gambling

If you identify with multiple items on this list, professional support is available and highly recommended.

Self-Help Tools & Features

Most reputable online betting sites offer built-in tools to help you gamble responsibly:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a specified period
• Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders during gameplay showing how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
• Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Temporarily suspend your account for a set duration (hours, days, or weeks)
• Self-Exclusion: Permanently close your account or exclude yourself from gambling for an extended period
• Account Statements: Review detailed records of your deposits, withdrawals, and wagers

We encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gambling strategy. Take control of your experience.
