BetPokies.org — Leading Affiliate Product by the Quality of Gambling Review Content

BetPokies.org was launched by John Gold in 2020. Within the four years of its existence, the site has become the leading affiliate product due to the quality of content, offering Aussie gamblers the most recent, invaluable, and unique information about online casinos.
Online gambling is a field full of lures. Online casinos offering huge bonuses with hundreds of free spins could make anyone get lost. This is why experienced gambler John Gold created an online gambling review portal, BetPokies.org (owned by ZehrMedia LTD), where Aussie readers can find casino reviews and gambling guides from true experts. Read on to learn exactly why you should trust this source!
Get to Know BetPokies.org
BetPokies.org is a gambling review website for Aussie players looking for the finest online casinos. Despite focusing on gambling sites, the BetPokies team also provides payment methods and game providers guides, and gambling-related news to ensure their readers have a reliable source of all kinds of casino information on their website.
Founder and editor-in-chief of the website, John Gold, believes “One person cannot be an expert in different fields.” Therefore, BetPokies team has casino review expert Poppy Bate and payment method expert Charles Morey, who combine their forces into creating truly informative guides and reviews.
Why You Should Trust BetPokies.org
Aussie gamblers can find over 100 online casino reviews on betpokies.org. To create high-quality and honest content, John Gold set up strict requirements for the research done by his expert team. For instance, Poppy Bate must verify the availability and validity of the casino license, check the quality of the game variety, ensure the fairness of T&Cs and bonus offers, and more. Therefore, she can provide readers with a full picture of inline casinos with all the advantages and disadvantages. Also, more than 10 manual testers are involved in the research process by registering at an online casino, completing KYC, making test deposits, complying with wagering requirements, and finally making withdrawals.
Besides casino reviews, BetPokies offers their readers informative articles on different topics, such as “Gambling statistics.” There, John Gold and his team collected interesting and sometimes worrying statistics. In the article, Aussie readers can learn about the most popular casino games and casino types, Australian territories where gambling is the most common, and some info about gambling harm.
For those who read the article and got concerned, John Gold created another extensive guide about responsible gambling. To create it, he consulted with therapists specialising in gambling harm, social workers, and a psychiatrist who explained the reasons behind gambling addiction and said more about the first signs of it. Based on the information provided by these specialists, BetPokies experts created a quick test that will help you indicate the first symptoms.
BetPokies.org — Reliable Source and Good Affiliate Partner
Unlike other betting sites, BetPokies mainly focuses on player satisfaction instead of making money. In the words of John Gold, “For an affiliate program to make a constant profit, first it must earn the trust of readers.” If you look at the four years in which BetPokies has existed, the loyalty and trust that readers had in us, the profits we got from these years as well as those that our brands have made with us so far, could prove this point. This is how BetPokies became famous for its trustworthy and accurate reviews in Australia’s online gaming industry and won readers’ confidence.
BetPokies answers its audience’s questions about gambling through various means, starting with simple online casino reviews and ending with gaming news briefings and responsible gambling tips.
Trustworthy game review portal Betpokies opens up new cooperation opportunities. If you are a casino representative interested in it, please contact [email protected]. The company is also looking for additional staff, such as copywriters, testers, and data researchers. Visit BetPokies’ page “Careers” if you want to try yourself there.

Surrey Resident Wins Record-Breaking $80-Million Lotto Max Jackpot

Justin Simporios is normally a sound sleeper who “can fall asleep anywhere” – but he had a very sleepless night, after learning he won an $80-million Lotto Max jackpot from the May 9, 2025 draw. This is the largest lottery jackpot ever won in B.C. and is also the largest jackpot ever won by a single individual in Canada.
“It was 10:30 p.m.,” recalled Simporios of the moment he realized he won. “I saw that someone won $80 million in Surrey. I was joking and told my wife ‘we’re millionaires!’ and she told me to stop making that joke. After, I manually checked each number before scanning [using the BCLC Lotto! I cried and shouted, ‘we’re millionaires!’”
The Surrey resident woke up his wife to share the news. “She was in complete disbelief and a bit mad at me because our daughter wasn’t feeling well.” Simporios’ wife luckily agreed this was a good reason to wake her.
While still in disbelief about his win, Simporios is ultimately most excited to share his windfall with his family. “I want to help my family and my wife’s family. I’ll pay off my sister’s medical school debt and help my mom retire early – just giving my family a head start in life.”
Giving back to the community in Surrey and B.C. is also a key priority for Simporios. “I’ve struggled before and needed help. Even if I can give an ounce of happiness, I want to help where we can. This feels like a dream.”
As an avid LA Lakers fan, Simporios mentioned he would like to see LeBron James play before James retires. He also plans to visit his family in the Philippines for a family reunion. “My wife and kid have never visited!”
On how it feels to win a record-breaking jackpot?
“The biggest change will be having more time with my wife and family. We want to live with a purpose – to help the community around us.”
Simporios purchased the winning ticket at the Walmart Supercentre in Central City on King George Boulevard in Surrey.
So far in 2025, B.C. lottery players have redeemed more than $101 million from Lotto Max. Lotto Max is a nationwide lottery game drawn on Tuesdays and Fridays after 7:30 p.m. (PST).
Players can purchase tickets at lottery retailers or at PlayNow.com. Winning numbers and group release forms can be found online at www.bclc.com. Players can check their lottery tickets anytime, anywhere on iOS and Android devices. Learn more about the BCLC Lotto!
BCLC offers socially responsible gambling entertainment while generating income to benefit all British Columbians. Players can visit PlayNow.com to learn how to set time and money limits.
