Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Fun, Not a Financial Solution
At Lexington Station, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Royal Reels pokies and all casino games should be enjoyed as entertainment only—never as a way to make money or solve financial problems. The house always has an edge, and you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Please take a moment to review the information below to help you stay in control and play safely.
Age Verification
Gaming is strictly for adults aged 18 years and over in Australia. By accessing Lexington Station, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and meet all legal requirements to participate in online gaming in your jurisdiction.
If you are under 18, please do not use this site.

- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Hiding your gambling activities or lying about how much you gamble
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essential expenses
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or stressed when not gambling
- Spending increasing amounts of time and money on gaming
- Neglecting family, work, school, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Friends or family expressing concern about your gaming habits

- Failed attempts to cut back or control your gaming
If you identify with any of these warning signs, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gaming Features
Many online gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit in a given timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a cap on how much you're willing to lose during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session cut-offs to prevent extended play
- Reality Checks: Enable pop-up notifications during play to remind you of time and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gaming sites if you need a break
