General Comments
Sign on wall of gaming room - $95,862 jackpot won in this venue last month. Does this indicate that the palace is a lucky venue? Does this add to the misconception that a gambler might have a better chance at the Palace?
When automated doors open, pokies visible to passersby on Burke Road.
Read the City of Boroondara's Gaming Policy
