A local Hunter man has won over $6 million in Keno but insists he won’t be quitting his day job. The winning ticket was purchased at East Maitland Bowling Club. The winner described the moment an official confirmed his win as “unbelievable.”
While this win is life-changing, experts remind everyone to gamble responsibly. Here are a few tips:
- Set a Budget: Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Establish a budget and stick to it.
- Know the Odds: Understand the odds of the games you play. Remember, gambling is largely based on chance.
- Limit Time Spent Gambling: Set a time limit and take regular breaks to avoid excessive gambling.
- Avoid Chasing Losses: If you lose money, don’t try to win it back by gambling more. This often leads to bigger losses.
- Seek Help if Needed: If gambling starts to interfere with your daily life, seek help from professional services.
Remember, gambling should be fun and never be seen as a way to make money.
