It may well be that your IP is showing as being in Australia, and thus is blocked by the site.
I do seem to remember hearing something similar before.
www.ausvegas.com.au/help/lassfaq.jsp
states
AUSTRALIA
Unfortunately the Interactive Gaming Bill 2001 prohibits us from allowing Australian Residents to play at our site whether for points or cash play. As an Australian resident, you will not be permitted to play the AusVegas Online Casino games.


and you can find a description of the Act HERE and HERE

Did you read my links above? Australia is very anti online gaming, and it may well be that some providers ban the sites, whereas others leave it to the honesty of the individual and fear of breaking the law.

Going cold-bingo for some must be really hard.

Next it will be drugs out of desperation and frustration....
