Commissioned by the NSW government in 2022 to investigate the impact of late-night poker machine playing on gambler behaviour, the researchers found late-night play was strongly linked to problematic gambling behaviour.


The risk noticeably increased after midnight, with nearly two-thirds of those who gambled between 2am and 8am experiencing significant negative consequences. More than 22 per cent were classified as problem gamblers.
