The Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) publishes the amount players lost on electronic gaming machines, or pokies, at each hotel and club venue in Victoria in each financial year. Expenditure is the amount wagered less the winnings paid out.

The commission publishes the latest three financial years in one workbook and the years from 2008-09 to 2021-22 in another. Each is its own dataset here, with one row per venue and year.

Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission releases these 2 tables as one dataset on its portal, so every table here shares the version date 2025-08-26. Each table has its own page with a format picker, a field list, a sample record and its version history.

Also called: Current gaming expenditure by venue, EGM expenditure by venue 2008 to 2022, EGM expenditure by venue Victoria, Historical gaming expenditure by venue, Poker machine losses by pub and club, Victorian pokies losses by venue, Victorian pokies losses by venue history.
