Responsible Gaming — Bull Rush

Four quick questions, honest answers only:

1. Have you tried to cut back on gambling in the last year?

2. Have people close to you been annoyed about your gambling in the last year?

3. Have you felt guilty about your gambling in the last year?

4. Have you ever gambled first thing in the morning?

Two or more yes answers is a signal to pause and talk to one of the services listed below.

Every licensed Australian operator offers the same core set of tools:

• Deposit limits — daily, weekly, monthly caps you set yourself.
• Loss limits — a stop that activates once losses in a period exceed a number you choose.
• Session limits — a timer that closes the session after the chosen time.
• Reality checks — periodic pop-ups with your running balance.
• Self-exclusion — a hard pause from one day to permanent.

Set a deposit limit before your first spin on Bull Rush, not after.

For Australian readers:

• Gambling Help Online — chat and phone support 24/7, free and confidential.
• National Gambling Helpline — 1800 858 858, 24 hours a day.
• Lifeline — 13 11 14 for crisis support.
• BetStop — the national self-exclusion register.

All of these services are free. You do not need to be in crisis to use them, and the first call does not commit you to anything.

You must be 18 or older to gamble in Australia. Operators we link to verify ID at registration; the site itself is editorial and is not recommended for readers under 18.

Parents and guardians can use content-filter software, device-level parental controls and, on the operator side, the BetStop register to add an extra layer of protection on shared devices.

Common signs that gambling is becoming a problem include:

• Spending more than you planned, more often than you planned.
• Chasing losses with bigger bets to try to break even.
• Borrowing money, missing bills or hiding spend from people close to you.
• Feeling anxious or irritable when you cannot play.

Any of these on its own is a reason to pause. Two or more together is a reason to call one of the helplines below today.

Practical steps to protect a minor on a shared device:

• Turn on device-level parental controls (iOS Screen Time, Android Family Link, Windows Family Safety).
• Add gambling-category blocks in router-level or DNS-level filters.
• Talk through why these controls exist — the technical layer works best when the conversation has already happened.
