The New South Wales Liquor and Gaming Authority has formally accused him of infringing upon the 1998 Betting and Racing Act. <\/p>\n<p>The charges center around claims that Waterhouse urged a patron to continue wagering despite their explicit request to deactivate their account. This transgression could result in a substantial financial penalty, potentially reaching up to $121,000 AUD (equivalent to approximately $77,944 USD).<\/p>\n<p>Waterhouse faces a total of 11 charges. Five pertain to allegations of encouraging the client to place bets after their attempt to close their account. The remaining six charges arise from accusations of him accepting wagers from this individual subsequent to their account closure request. <\/p>\n<p>These charges are all connected to a single client on Waterhouse&#8217;s digital platform, RobWaterhouse.com. The crux of the issue lies in the 1998 Betting and Racing Act&#8217;s unambiguous prohibition against pressuring individuals into gambling. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Regarding Robert Waterhouse&#8230;&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>We recognize that wagering can become a problem and our aim is to support your well-being.  Our goal is for you to manage your betting habits, rather than them controlling you.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities in New South Wales, Australia are taking strict measures against businesses that promote reckless gambling.  In 2018, they implemented stricter consequences for corporations that violate the regulations.  As an illustration, last December, the gaming enterprise Waterhouse received a $4,500 penalty for providing patrons with up to five &#8220;odds boosts&#8221; daily.  These types of incentives have the potential to exacerbate compulsive gambling. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prominent Australian gaming figure Robbie Waterhouse finds himself embroiled in controversy following allegations of breaching gambling regulations.
