Dunedin Casino Posters Targets Chronic Gamblers
On July 2, 2007, the policy comes despite the problems of the Christchurch Casino, which is currently being investigated by the department because of allegations of loan sharking and financial problems.
Head of the Christchurch Casino facility, Barry Thomas, refused to comment on whether the Christchurch Casino would use the new rules.
The Dunedin Casino facility posters explain how much a gamer will lose for every $100 they wager on the gambling machines, baccarat, roulette, blackjack, Caribbean stud poker, in an action to help solve gambling problems in the area.
A gambler wagering on the game of baccarat can lose $1.20 for every $100 wagered by the player, while a poker player will lose $7.50 for every $100 wagered by the poker player.
The Dunedin Casino posters also reiterate that having good luck charms and gaming superstition have no effect whatsoever on a player's chances. In addition, the posters state that the gambling streaks are just a sequence of events that the players believe are favorable to them. The whole outcome is favorable to the casino and adds to the casino advantage.
Dunedin Casino CEO Nick Winder, who has managed the casino since March 2006 said that the posters are a way to educate players on the possible effects of too much casino gambling.
The casino was commanded by the Gambling Commission to shut down for two days last year as a punishment for failing to do anything to help female player Christine Keenan who gambled a total of $6.6 million between 2001 and 2004.
