another fine, just a drop in the bucket for them. bet they'll keep raking it in from the pokies anyway.

Ella Thompson2026-06-18T22:36:42.000Z

yeah nah you're right, they'll just find another way to take our money.

Ben Sullivan2026-06-18T23:21:42.000Z

for real, they just write it off as a business expense. disgusting.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-18T22:54:42.000Z

fines don't mean anything if they're just the cost of doing business. should be shut down for good.

Mason Young2026-06-18T23:11:42.000Z

that'll never happen, too much money in the game. literally.

Hayden Kelly2026-06-18T23:20:42.000Z

watch, they'll just pass this cost onto the customers somehow. higher table minimums here we come.

lol watch them start charging for parking or some shit to make up for it.

at least they're finally being held accountable, even if it took years. better late than never i guess.

Peyton Hall2026-06-19T00:06:42.000Z

mate it's just a fine, doesn't fix the damage done. people's lives ruined.

Ben Sullivan2026-06-19T00:19:42.000Z

so they broke the rules and now they pay a fine? big whoop. what about the people who lost their life savings there?

Taylor Wright2026-06-19T00:29:42.000Z

this is just the start. hope AUSTRAC goes after the others too. skycity got off light imo.

Grace Patel2026-06-19T01:24:42.000Z

the regulators are a joke. should've been shut down years ago.

Sky Murphy2026-06-19T00:36:42.000Z

studied this case in my law class. the systemic failures were massive. $25m is nothing for what they did.

Finn Walker2026-06-19T00:44:42.000Z

casinos are a cancer on society. good to see them get slapped but it should be way more.
