This comedy video will help. It's about 20 minutes long, by Boy Boy, featuring I Did A Thing and some dudes from The Chaser I guess.

How Much Money Can We Launder In A Day?

Basically, a dude was a whistleblower pointing out how casinos and slot machines are incredibly easily used for money laundering. In response, the casinos tried to utterly ruin his life, both via the legal system and by firebombing his house.

Can an Aussie please unpack this headline, I'm dying to know what a "pokies whistleblower" is.

No way I'm googling that on a work computer.

Pokies is Australian slang for slot machines in casinos

You can cash money into the machine and then get clean cash out again, so you add 5000 whatever currency, then you go by the cash out machine getting clean cash back
