Pubs and clubs (in NSW) have dragged more than 570 poker machines out of storage and put them back into use to meet booming demand, contributing to a record $4.1 billion in net profit for the first half of the year.

The increase in the number of active poker machines – the first since at least 2017 – comes despite a government policy to reduce the number of machines in the community, and a year after Premier Chris Minns capped gaming machine entitlements.

Clearly the community does not support pokie restrictions, despite my personal hate as programmed money zapping machines.
