We post stories of the heartbreaking loss caused by poker machine addiction, news reports on Australian poker machine reform, and commentary on the social, political and economic issues surrounding poker machines.

why we need a reform

High loss poker machines are known to be addictive and Australia has the fastest, highest loss machines in the world. They have spread from casinos into clubs, hotels and neighborhoods.

With high-intensity machines, players can lose $1200 in an hour. But the loss doesn't stop there.

Hundreds of thousands of Australians are affected every year.

They lose jobs, entire pension funds, homes, marriages, families and in too many tragic cases, their lives.

Public opinion research shows a great majority of Australians support poker machine reforms. But immense pressure from the poker machine lobby and massively funded advertising effort is trying to frustrate any attempt by the government to bring about real reform.

We need all Australians who want meaningful change to let their view be known now, however they can.

We will continually update this website with information and suggested ways that you can help.
