The cards that would be required to use poker machines across the state would have a cap. 9News

When asked about the limit, NSW Opposition Leader Chris Minns compared the scheme to Tasmania's, which has a $100 a day limit.

The cashless cards are part of Perrottet's push for gambling reform, but has proved a point of contention in the lead-up to the state election in March.Transport and Veterans Minister David Elliott, who is retiring at the next election, argues the card will shift the issue. "What you'll see is people just walking out of registered clubs and pubs and walking down the road and not putting the 20 bucks after bowls in a poker machine, but going … to the newsagency and buying 20 bucks worth of scratchies," he said last week.

There is also push back from pubs and clubs across the state as many of the venues' revenue comes from pokies.
