I’m talking about the potential problem that you might encounter in the casino. Personally,  My worst nightmare that I don’t want to happened to me is when I hit huge jackpot while the casino investigate my account ask documents that will support my financial capability on gambling.

I’m only reading this issue on scam accusation but this is painful if happened to me like hitting max multiplier on slot games that result to 50K profit. Can’t imagine finally hitting my dream multiplier then casino seize my profit. This is just an abstract discussion so we are not really assuming that casino will do this especially the reputable casino.

There is nothing that I am afraid of. My country makes gambling legal and the gambling sites that I am using do not restrict my country. I read gambling sites ToS carefully. I get verified if necessary. If I win a jackpot, I am expecting the gambling site to pay me the money. But what I can be afraid of is if the gambling site is not capable of paying the money. But I use gambling sites that have huge amount of money and that are capable.

Regardless of the withdrawal amount, because it does not have to be a large sum, withdrawals are always in the first instance the first warning, so one should be up to date with the casino and not expect such situations to happen unexpectedly. That is, you must make withdrawals and deposits regularly that will allow you to avoid surprises.

In conclusion, check the TOC, then make the corresponding withdrawals, but before all that, make sure they are prestigious casinos that allow withdrawals that cover your nightmares.

Oh my God this is just what I was reading and am like I don't know what I'd do if this ever happens to me. I know I can bear a $100 case but $50k? No, my family may just have to call emergency services for me if this were to ever happen. And the scariest part is that even though you had done KYC right after you signed up, the casino still reserves the right to ask for some additional KYC documents if they smell a foul after a huge win when you want to withdraw or maybe it is just a frustration tactic to make the individual give up on withdrawing their winnings.

Withdrawal issues is the number one problem many users have been having with the use of the gambling casinos, so many of them cant afford to present the required information's needed for KYC, the second one is to see the the platform turns inaccessible again and later realized it has all turned to scam, gamblers always want to experience a continuous service satisfaction with the gambling platforms and dislikes anything that will hinder them from enjoying the use of their service.

I think your nightmare is also other people nightmares too lol. But there's a small difference for me, I'm afraid if the casino will reveal my identity to public in order to gets more attention if they've paid the rewards, this will make people ask money to me and I don't have any privacy.

When someone hit a jackpot, I believe most people will dare to submit their KYC, but the problem is people are afraid the casino will give so many excuses or accuse you have broke their terms, resulting they won't pay the reward. The thing is, you can't seek a legal help because they're not really that regulated.

Guys the purpose of the thread is to share what is the worst possible scenario that you don’t want to experience on the casino. My example is just my personal insight but that doesn’t mean I don’t read the ToS. Shit can happened anytime on your gambling especially if you are trying new casino that was initially good that later on turn to scam. No one can dodge this nightmare no matter how you read the ToS if the operator itself turn to rouge casino which there’s a lot of proof for this.

Don’t focus much on my example but rather share something what do you honestly don’t like to experience because everyone will have this kind of thoughts when you read on the scam accusation board.


I didn’t think about this but now that you mention it. Holy macaroni,  :D

Isn't losing money everyone's nightmare :D, however, i recommend that you don't gamble with too much money, so you don't have to worry so much about losing. To avoid a situation were you winnings is confiscated by the casino, it is recommended to do your own research and only play in reputable casinos, also try and find situations were customers have called out the casino and see how they resolved the issue, but in all of this, you must be certain that you did not cheat or break any of their rules in landing that win.

My nightmare is when I feel dissatisfied with winning, being greedy and wanting to win more often comes when I feel that maybe this is my lucky day. I have experienced this several times, the loss of control when winning makes the win obtained turn into an ambition to get more until I have to lose most of the winnings obtained before. It's a simple problem, but it can be very impactful if I'm not careful. I still experience habits like this, and I want to end this nightmare immediately.

the problems about withdrawal, I don't need to worry if I use a casino that already has a reputation and capability of being able to pay out large amounts. Regarding KYC requests, if it really could change my life, maybe I would try to fulfill the casino's request, as long as I never break the rules, i believe this not a nightmare anymore.

Mine is not related to wins or losses. It is rather the exposure of the fact that we all as individuals use casinos that operate bitcoin anonymously and our privacy gets handed over to the authorities.

That would be a bone chilling moment and indeed can happen with any casino in the future in case they are being targeted by governments. This is why we all hate the KYC on a casino.

It is not that we can avoid this - that would need us to leave these casinos completely.

The worst nightmare of any gambler associated with a casino is one way or another related to the topic of money. Like those didn’t win the jackpot, couldn’t withdraw their winnings due to the KYC, lost all their money, and so on. Everywhere there is a loss of money, both current (deposit) and possibly received (at the expense of winnings). My personal worst nightmare in a casino involves losing my deposit, which is actually what happened (a nightmare incarnate) in the past, causing me to stop betting. Although, it was a little different. The amount lost can hardly be called a terrible loss, but this lesson was enough for me. Awareness of the possibility of a nightmare warns me against gambling.

Aside from losing money, my biggest nightmare and fear has to be the actuality of a casino not being provably fair as they promised which means that no matter what I do, the house is guaranteed to have an edge over me. I used to play on casinos in the past — my favorite games were dice and crash but I didn't have much luck which ended up in back to back losses. Since there was no way at the time to get proofs, I moved to sports betting because at sports betting, you don't have to care about games being provably fair as outcome is usually not known to anyone and it's not purely a luck based game.

I haven't had a nightmare of such and didn't even want to dream of such. But the one I wouldn't love to have is playing a game am about to win a jackpot and the last game cut, after I have conclude the final wining. For example my friend played a game to win about $40k with 9 draws, 8 played but at dieing minutes after the last game was about wining, at 85 minutes they equalised the  game. From hence I decided never to put my hopes on a game even if it's 1minutes

On the other hand, yes it is true and I am also among the people who feel this fear where I am afraid that the casino does not pay the winnings that I managed to get, everyone definitely wants to get the maximum jackpot win because the amount of winnings is very large but on the other hand I am also quite worried about the potential fraud of some casinos that maybe I or you are in the wrong casino when we get the big win.

I'm also a gambler who prefers to play on slot games because it's quite easy to play but seeing from the bad experience experienced by my friend where the casino did not pay his winnings in the note did not confirm the withdrawal process and instead froze my friend's gambling account even though in it there was already a sizable winning balance which in the end yes there is no other way but to let it go even though it is difficult to refrain from getting emotional. Therefore this is a valuable lesson for me and maybe for some other gamblers who try to find some casinos that are trusted enough and have a high reputation to minimize the possibility of unwanted things such as fraud that thwarts our withdrawal process.

Chilling isn't it. Recently, a news circulated in my country where personal information of citizens submitted to government databases were compromised and sold to third part agents. I remember the first time I submitted my passport as one of the KYC documents, I was really concerned but then, it meant that I either submitted it or let go of the amount I won from the slot game.

Do you think a way to reduce the probability of this risk is to stick to only 2 or max 3 crypto gambling websites since using more than of these websites means that you are exposed to more risk of your data being leaked?

I d not have a biggest nightmare for gambling. There is nothing about it that I think about so much for it to become that big of an issue. Having a large winning which I got legitimately seized will be right up there and so will be getting addicted to gambling and throwing in tons of money beyond what I can comfortably stake.

Gambling houses always leave a back door for themselves in the ToS which allows them get out of tough situations and minimize their losses. Knowledge of the terms does not protect from this.

Can a casino or betting platform update their ToS without sending out Notifications to gamblers? It is not impossible, but very unlikely.
Can a gambler miss out on a notification from a casino or gambling platform about an updated ToS? Yes! it is possible the notification is missed because it came at a wrong time when the gambler could not read it, or because the gambler is guilty of never checking their mail.

I believe that a gambler should not trust that one time knowledge about a casino's terms of service. From time to time always try to go through them again if possible to see there are updates that you need to be sure of.

Casinos are obligated to inform their users of any change in their terms because the users are to accept the terms by which they use the service. If they do not send a notification, that user is not bounded to the new terms.

But they always do well to leave a term about how they reserve the right to suspend your account if they suspect shady activities, giving them freedom to do so at will.

Earlier today I came across a post of a gambler asking for help on how to withdraw a mega win from a gambling platform. According to him, he's from a restricted country and he's been winning and withdrawing without any issues until he hit a jackpot and he's been asked to submit his documents for KYC verification. I quite understand the pain and frustration of not being able to withdraw such an amount. But the TOS is there for a reason, if you're not eligible to gamble and you're still using the platform, then it's at your own peril.

That is why you should make sure your account is verified and you have provided all your personal documents, as required by the house, to complete the KYC process, before starting to place your bets on the casino's games. And even if you don't want to do this beforehand, you have to be assured to be able to provide every potential documents they may ask, once you hit a jackpot and try to cashout a higher sum of money from the platform. Don't wait hitting the jackpot to decide if you will do the verification or not.

If you aren't able to do the KYC process, don't even begin to gamble at the casino. Rather, look for alternative casinos where KYC isn't mandatory, so that is one less nightmare to worry about. Of course there aren't many options of casinos like that, but you may find it if you do your research. One popular platform is freebitco.in. I've never heard they asked for KYC from their users, although I must say the house edge is pretty high when compared to its casinos pairs.

The worst nightmare that I will never allow to repeat itself again that happened to me is that, I went to the betshop because I have a low battery and I cannot book my games online, I place my bet on the games and went home. Unknown to me that my ticket was not properly put inside my pocket, and when I went home, I just pull off my trousers and freshen up without any notice.

In the evening, when I checked the result of the game from my phone, it came out as I predicted. I was so happy and wore my trouser to bring out the ticket so that I can check it again to be very sure. I could not find it inside my pocket, I would have said that someone took it from my pocket, but at that time I was alone in the house, as my family traveled. I got paranoid and dashed down to the bet shop, but I couldn't claim my win.

In general, the worst nightmare a gambler can experience is winning a huge amount and you encounter a lot of issues, like suddenly the casino asks for so many documents and you are accused of cheating like having alt accounts.

All the complaints in the scam sections are all about withdrawals after winning huge amounts of money and you know that you have not been very careful not to break the rules of the casino that you're playing, this is the worst nightmare that every gambler is afraid to encounter.

This can only be avoided if you're playing in a reputable casino because they are going to protect their reputation to keep their standing in the gambling industry as a reputable casino.

This is quite unfortunate and frustrating seeing your winnings deduce all because of some Casinos self interest.i see this as a guide as this have not happened to me before but with this I'll eventually know what action to take when it sure happens and again I see this as a means whereby those casinos officials enrich themselves but nevertheless it shouldn't get to the point of seizing your profit.
Sometimes they might be doing so because the observed you just hit a big jackpots so that's the means they'll use to extort ur money from you rather than asking you to compensate them.

I have never experience such huge money in my gambling since I started gamble and, if such thing happen to me to win big money from a casino from a well register casino, I don't think they will have the right not to release the money to me unless they don't have it at the moment because there are some government offices I will report such cases and justice will be done immediately.

 I don't think a standard casino will involve themselves to such issues that will be making gamblers to be avoiding their gambling center because, they know that it will affect their customers which will be the reason they will allow the winner to have his money immediately.

Of course if that happens it will be the worst nightmare that has ever happened to us, but I hope something like that doesn't happen to me, if I win a jackpot of $50k or up to $100k, that's why I always choose casinos that are responsible for their users and at least I have access to some of the people who run the casino personally, at least I can deal with unwanted things happening to me.

Thus, even though I currently gamble at online casinos, of course undesirable things can happen unexpectedly, therefore I am very against betting large amounts at online casinos, It's not that I don't trust the casino, but as you said, we never know behind the scenes, remember that the internet/online can suddenly crash or be blocked, so we need to anticipate everything, betting with minimal ability to win is not a disaster for us, betting large amounts of risk cannot help us in a tight situation.

No player is happy if they face problems like that, friends. Behind the aim of gambling for fun, there is something in their hearts that they want to win with a big jackpot. When you get a big jackpot and your account cannot withdraw, it will be a regrettable event.
If the casino asks for documents such as KYC to carry out verification and after completing it the user can make a withdrawal, it may not be a problem even though privacy has been leaked.

I have encountered players with cases like that but there was no final resolution. Of course I don't expect that to continue to happen to players at every casino they play at even though each casino has terms and conditions.

I have heard different stories of how some gambling companies frustrates individuals on KYC and other relevant but irrelevant documents before their withdrawal can be processed more especially on a larger winning. Gambling is very risky both in playing and when one wins because majority of gambling companies that exist all over the world is fake and fraudulent so it is advisable to place bets that the potential winnings would not be too huge to an extent that the betting site will be demanding you to provide documents that doesn't have anything to do with one's winning and again, learn to read the terms and conditions of any betting company because a lot of gamblers doesn't read the terms and conditions of gambling sites that's why they finds it difficult in times of larger winning.

Perhaps, your case is unfortunate because this involves a jackpot winning and not a normal placing of bets so it is not a good one on the reputation and integrity of that betting site.

Whenever we're talking about nightmares, I believe it's about losing money lol. I'm scared that I lose everything. Maybe that's just the second thing. The first thing is to get killed inside the casino. There might be some unstable folk and then have a holdup within the casino. That's really scary and there are some encounters here in my country that happened like that. Or even after winning the jackpot, you will be tailed and harrassed. Those are some pretty scary stuff.

Losing everything, it will be a nightmare for sure. It is hard seeing myself at my lowest, especially financially knowing how expensive it is to sustain a lifestyle at this point that inflation is obvious in most countries. Given how I fear such thing to happen, I make sure to always track my bankroll including wins and loss to make myself aware of things. I always prioritize being in control of my gambling behvior and activities.

It may sound simple but actually, many people, including me, are struggling about self discipline when it comes on betting. Money itself is a huge drive to push us to continue betting regardless of loss. We always have to keep ourselves reminded that winning will never be assured and if we fear losing huge amount of money, we should be preventive of betting huge as well.

But what you have mentioned is valid. Winning is difficult to achieve and when that moment comes such thing happen and will be ruined buy anything, it would be for sure frustrating. If it is with landbased casinos then it is hard to believe its possibility given that authorities will be helping you to handle it. With web 3.0 betting then there are reputable sites you can rely on. What's worse is to get scammed by the platform itself, showing that you won but in reality they'd just run with the amount you deposit. Better avoid suspiscious platforms early.

My biggest nightmare in a casino is to win big and don't be able to withdraw. And I have seen a lot of people with this problem. Usually when a gambler wins a big amount the casino request a Kick process but if the user fails in the process then he will not be able to withdraw, and that is a terrible experience for the user, because he is literally doxing himself for money.  And I'm not saying the KYC process is something wrong, but some times casinos make bad use of users' data, and that's a risk for everyone.

This is a very natural worry for some people who are members of a casino and gambling. And when someone gets a big win in gambling, it becomes a hope for the players that they can get the prize they have won as soon as possible, without experiencing obstacles or delays for quite a long time.

And here, of course, casinos as parties that provide various types of gambling have a responsibility to ensure fairness and security in their operations. As part of the security and regulatory compliance process, casinos may request verification documents to verify a player's identity and financial capabilities, and although this may seem difficult for players, these steps are usually taken simply to protect the players, and the casino from the potential for fraud, money laundering or other illegal acts.

And when we play honestly according to the rules, and are able to pick and choose which gambling platforms to visit, there should be no worries of this kind.

It already happened to someone so it's not far-fetched to see it happens again. Asking for KYC documents and then not really validating what you submitted, only to find out they are to investigate first and have to consult a 3rd party game provider. This is happening in centralized casinos.

In the decentralized casinos, this is also what our worst nightmares would be, you connect your wallet and then find out the next day that all your assets are gone. Although I have not read someone experienced this issue, it's possible to happen since there was an incident when people connected their wallet to a web3 app and then assets were withdrawn.

In the case of a brick and mortar casino, one of my worst nightmare scenarios would be to get drunk or somehow lose control over myself, waking up next morning and not recalling what happened to me, also realizing I have lost all my money to the casino and I cannot longer afford anything during those vacations.
In the case of an online casino, I think that situations you just described with the jackpot is pretty much the worst scenario which comes to my mind. A different variation of that situation would be hitting the jackpot and when I am finally allowed to withdraw all the money ,I introduced the wrong cryptocurrency address, leading to a massive loss of funds. Obviously the casino will not care and won't give me anything afterwards. That is the worst nightmare anyone could experiment while engaging in online gambling/Bitcoin gambling, in my personal opinion.

I would rather not to further think about those situations.  :(

Maybe this one also will be my nightmare because once a casino ask me a document such as proof of income then it will be hard for me to do it because I'm a self-employed or an enterpreneur.
Especially if the casino ask me to provide something like official letter from the government, it will be dangerous for me because gambling is illegal in my country.
Other possible nightmare can be getting caught by the local police when I play online casino :) so it will bring me into jail (in most cases, gamblers who get caught in my country is jailed for 3 months).
Hopefully there will be no nightmare in my gambling journey.

Well, considering the wording of your question and it containing "in" as though you're talking about a physical place, the answer is easy for me.  I hate casinos because the ones that I've been in always allow cigarette smoking.  Cigarette smoke is my least favorite thing in the world and I can't stand to be around it for any length of time.  So for me, I avoid casinos because I don't want to smell like an ashtray or have to breathe in that nonsense.  A close second would be a very large scary man seeing me win and then following me out to the parking lot.  :)

My worst nightmare would be I won an amount that's huge to my financial capability and casino says there is some malfunction in the machine so that bet will be void. ;D

Imagine what will be your reaction if you are in that situation? Shocked, feel cheated or lose hope of your life even...

In my early days of gambling, the problem I had with a casino was also KYC issues. I ever knew they would ask for it after a win and I wanted to remain anonymous. I had a win and they began to ask for some documents that I never wanted to give. I was faced with forgoing my funds or giving them my personal information. I needed the funds so I had to give out my data before I was allowed to withdraw.

It is a very painful experience especially when you don't want to give out your data. Gamblers that are going through these issues should be supported and not castigated. Some of them have lost so much until they were just fortunate to have that win. Depriving them of such is very painful. But I think most of these cases are caused by simple misunderstandings maybe some gamblers fail to reason the terms of service.

I will never forget this one; I consider this my nightmare in crypto casino. I lost 12,000 PHP (Philippine Pesos) on Primedice due to using the Martingale betting strategy with 50 PHP base bet. As a newbie gambler at the time, driven by curiosity after reading about dice betting strategies, I tried the Martingale strategy. At first, I was winning with my base bet of 50 PHP but after several hours I ended up losing because I experienced 10 lose streak. Because I was using the Martingale strategy at that time, I lost more than 12K PHP. I'm still using martingale but only in sports betting with almost even odds.

I experienced the worst thing in gambling, almost as you fear, when I got a big win of course I cashed it out. but the casino did not pay the winnings that I had earned, even though I had tried to communicate and complain to the staff at the casino but there was no good response from them, there was no movement whatsoever, until finally I gave up and let the winnings disappear. just like that. it's annoying and painful, because in my opinion a big win is what every gambler who gambles wants.

and it doesn't stop there, the casino gave me the winnings but didn't pay it when I made a withdrawal, they also froze my account or locked it so that when I wanted to log in again but what happened was a bad thing, I couldn't access my account again, Maybe that's because casinos don't want to experience big losses from those who use small capital to gamble. I hope this doesn't happen to many gamblers, but if many gamblers experience this, maybe it will be a lesson that will deter gamblers and stop gambling, if that's the case, that's good in my opinion.

The worst thing I don't want to experience in a casino is probably getting hacked out of the blue. Even with the extra layer of security we have in place, it can still happen, and while i'm away I sometimes get these random thoughts because I always have some balance sitting on my casino account. It's usually an amount I can afford to lose and even then it's still money at the end of the day. It might just be me overthinking about these situations, but you never know when someone can randomly target your account and get away with it on a random day.

Well, my worst nightmare is that when I place a bet on a team and the team starts to lose and I feel I will lose the money. What's your reaction when your team starts to play well after giving a rough start ?

In the starting, it will not be good because we think that our team will lose and it becomes hard to see the match but when they come from losing to winning then it will be the best feeling as from losing to winning position but sometimes it changes back from a winning position to the losing position.

For sure it hurts again whenever we see our team whom we bet has a weaker position in the match but at the same time there are two different sides of sports, one team has to lose and the other team has to win. With experience, I realize this and adjust my positions in the bets so that in case of a loss, I do not lose much money.

That's also a big winning amount, to be honest, I hope that won't be a reason for you to stop gambling. Although, I have never experienced such a thing x50 which is really sad.
The question is why did they stop what you won?

Maybe you know for yourself that you have not violated the rules of their gambling platform, right? did you ask their support? if yes, did they give you an answer op?

We all are, what could be more depressing and a worse nightmare than winning a life-changing amount, and the casino asking for a lot of documents or accusing you of cheating and denying your payment?

I understand people in the scam section filing complaints, it caused them sleeplessness at night asking if they will ever get their withdrawal, this is what gamblers feared the most, I'm thankful that it never happened to me or to all people I know who gamble.

I think we both have similar nightmare, not only we two but many people who bet on sports events may face the same fear in their lives. I have lost many times by betting on teams that I thought were undefeatable.

That's why I always fear that what if the team on which I placed my but losses the game? I often close my eyes after placing the bet and after sometimes I totally shift my attention from that game to something else. When the game is over, I come back to see if it was a winning bet or a losing one.

The intoxicating dream of a life-changing jackpot juxtaposed with the chilling fear of non-payment.  Imagine a lottery player fantasizing about their winning numbers coming up, only to be haunted by the suspicion that the system might be rigged.

The ease of slot games adds another layer to this complexity.  Their simplicity hides the inherent odds stacked against the player.  While they offer a quick rush of excitement, the potential for significant losses is high.

Your friend's experience is a cautionary tale.  A legitimate win turned into a frustrating ordeal due to an unclear withdrawal process and a frozen account.  This highlights the importance of choosing reputable casinos with transparent policies and a proven track record of honoring payouts.

As long as we gamble without violating casino rules and comply with their requirements, there is nothing to be afraid of, even though we will win big, they won't try to play with us, as long as it's also a big casino site, but there may be other cases, usually small casinos will This creates problems for us, that's why I always avoid small casinos and only play for fun on their sites, just to seek luck, not as a loyal player, it's best to look for trusted and large casino sites on this forum, there are many that we can find.

I also thought that I would face new problems when I win big and withdraw money there, but again as long as I play honestly and don't break the rules I think everything will be fine because I gamble in a big casino which allows them to always maintain So that their reputation doesn't become bad just because they ask for strange rules such as asking for documents that the casino shouldn't suddenly ask for, especially when we ask for documents when we are winning big and not when the game starts, so of course the site wants to take our winnings, but So far in big casinos there have been no such cases, although there are such cases, usually users play cheating and break the rules.

That's hassle right? You've won the casino and that's no joke money but a big one. And then, they suddenly asks you a lot of things before you proceed to the withdrawal.

Well, that's I guess the scariest thing that every gambler don't want to experience. You're going to be asked for kyc and even more if they are not satisfied with the documents that you've sent to them.

Another one is when I just can't accept defeat and I go for more runs until the amount is noticeable quite hefty that I'm willing to lose more.

In my case, I'm afraid of playing too much and losing control and becoming addicted to gambling, that's why I have constantly reminded myself of how to maintain my self-control during my sports betting, I always take great care in respecting my own rules regarding gambling, I always manage my bankroll very carefully and I don't play casino games that depend on luck, this is because they are games in which the person can easily spend many hours playing and consequently the person can become addicted to gambling. I also always keep the thought of winning a lot of money at the casino at a distance, so that I don't become greedy and start making uncontrolled bets with amounts of money that I can't afford to lose.


 ;D

I had this way of thinking years ago when I started making sports bets, at that time I made a bet and then I couldn't stop thinking about that bet and I didn't want to see that bet until the game was over, I was very anxious and scared the result of my bet being lost and I losing money and when many hours passed later and I realized that the game had already ended, then I became more afraid of entering the casino and checking the result, that's why it took me a long time to enter the casino. casino after I placed my bet. When I entered the casino, my heart felt like it was going to leave my body and I looked at the result of my bet and realized that I lost and that made me less willing to bet again.

After a few weeks of me placing bets and having that feeling, I made a profit that allowed me to recover all my losses and made me think a lot about whether that feeling was really good or not, I asked myself if I was really having fun with sports betting or if That feeling was destroying me, then I realized that that feeling wasn't good, so I stopped betting and all games for a few years and when I started betting again I no longer had that feeling. I started looking at bets without expressing feelings

You would really be having those kind of thoughts into your mind that you might be able to face up those issues on which we know that this is really that a common problem once jackpots been hit
or those huge multiplier hits on which there are casinos that do make out those kind of verification and KYC for you to comply before you could get your winning.
Just like you then i would really be having on the same nightmare but if you do have done nothing and you are dealing with a legit site or reputable ones then there's nothing to worry
but if you are someone who do love on testing out some new sites without having that enough reputation then it would be one of the risks that you would really be needing to face up.
So it would really be your own choice whether you would really be making those deposits or not.

How can I not imagine this win but I never dream too much especially with a $50K win but of course I will be anxious about this win because after all casinos will definitely investigate accounts with big wins and various problems with reasons will come.

But what about people with this level of winnings of course there are those who escaped and managed to withdraw all their jackpot winnings, I think that's a lot and there are still casinos that enforce fairly even though they have won big.

The fact that when the account is wagered in large amounts then when the jackpot wins it will not matter because the casino will know that he is a gambler who has been betting for a long time, it is different from the casino account wagered small then the jackpot in the slot up to $50K then usually the casino will suspect and ask for your documents.

I think they will do anything to be able to withdraw the winning money, whether level 1-3 KYC orders will be done because this is a large amount and who else will win with this jackpot?

In reality it is still quite difficult to get the jackpot even in the dream of winning it. LOL

Casinos are everywhere in the system, just get acquainted with one and everything will move too smooth. Winning big is the dream of everyone in the space, I know it's not easy but the risks are worth trying. When a gambler hits the lotto, it's different case because there's whole lot of set to know about the joy it brings on the faces of these lucky gamblers. Everyone wants fair treatment but they have to worked accordingly to the sets of terms and conditions put in place. The casinos system are not stupid, ofcourse they will try their best to investigate the history of every account and easily spot out the commas.

This is why we do really have these kind of what if's kind of condition on which its true that hitting up jackpots is really that almost close to impossible and this is why on the time that they would really be having those kind of assumptions then pretty sure that majority of those winners will really be doing all sorts of things as long they could really be able to get their winning. Who would really be tending to
ignore those huge winnings just because they do really give out that importance when it comes to their privacy? No one does.
It would really be indeed a nightmare if you cant really be able to withdraw those amount just because of some blah blah reasons with those casinos.
Just like on what said above that as long you are dealing with legit sites and you havent done something wrong then i dont see for you to worry.

do you think that this can happen as a result of your country legalize gambling if that is the case that means many people who is a living in a country that legalise  casino gambling, will not accept casino gambling in their place, so for me, I believe that casino gambling have to do with policy and each country have their own way of accepting gambling neither casino gambling or soccer gambling, but what I believe in gambling is that it has to do with precautions and rules,  I don't know if the restrictions can be something that will affect some of the country that accept gambling or not

I think your fears are pretty far removed from reality. My biggest fear is that at some point, gambling can make me lose my mind and spend money that I need for completely different purposes. If I lose all my money in the casino, it will be a nightmare for me.

If I ever manage to win a fortune and I am asked to prove my income, I will do it without hesitation. Accusations of fraud do not scare me either, because I know that I play honestly.

This really sounds like a bad dream to me. I don't know what could be worse than this, probably just losing the huge amount of money we borrowed. The requested confirmation of money makes it so that all the games and big risks with our money were in vain, and we hoped that winning would save us from all problems, but this did not happen. It turns out that we could even lose all our money without ever knowing that the jackpot was out of reach for us and we were simply wasting a lot of time on a non-existent dream. This is the same as living your whole life and striving for your dream, and at the age of 50 you understand that it never happened and it is simply impossible to achieve it, this is truly terrible, I sympathize with those who went through this in real life.

For you not to encounter any problem when it comes to casino not giving your winnings. Better be prepared with your kyc docs, and upon registration, be truthful with the info that they are requiring from you. So when they further ask you some documentation, the docs you will submit will correspond to the details that you supplied to them.


If the casino is reputable, paying big winnings won't be a problem. This is why if you will seriously play on a casino, better choose for casinos with good credibility and as much as possible with good bankroll, no withdrawal complaints or any existing issues.

This is a common thing and being able to win big in gambling is the dream of everyone who joins and bets. And when the victory they have been waiting for arrives, they will immediately celebrate the victory with laughter. However, when making a withdrawal suddenly there is a disruption or delay, suddenly the laughter disappears and worry comes, I'm worried whether my winnings will be paid soon or am I being cheated, or what...?

And talking about the investigation carried out by the casino regarding the accounts of its visitors, it also asked for documents for verification in order to get clarity on the player's identity and financial capabilities. I think these are things that casinos must do to avoid potential fraud. Because after all, the casino has responsibility and justice for all these things. Even though this is quite difficult and takes quite a long time, however, this step needs to be taken so that no party feels disadvantaged. and as players, we must be able to accept all the policies and conditions that have been implemented by the casino.

Perhaps because I have never ventured into gambling with large sums of money, I have never had any problems with any of the casinos I used. However, I think that the worst that could happen is that the casino turns into a scam or its assets are seized for one reason or another. Then the shock will be effective, regardless of the amount of money you have. In the crypto gambling space, most users are from countries that do not support their activities, and therefore they are not even able to file lawsuits, which most of them cannot afford.

Personally, I consider it wise to divide the deposits into small amounts over widely spaced deposit periods and withdraw the profits first from the private wallet. There is no guarantee that a disaster will not happen at any moment.

If something like this happens to me it would be a complete nightmare. And this is one of the reasons why I don't like participating or involved myself on crazy betting sites because you don't know when that day would come and luck might decides to smile on your face. Betting on a well reputable casino is something that every gambler should be aware of because even if we are playing for fun, sometimes we don't know what might happen and luckily we might just hit a jackpot that would even be beyond our imagination.

If you play on small casino or unknown.

These shit happend is always being used for casino as the tactic to buy time, they tried to buy some times to make you gambling the money you are win and losing the balance or hoping you cannot provided the document.

So, they refused to pay you.

The only potential problem that I am scared of facing in a casino will be with a physical casino. I have the fear of being accosted as a female on leaving the casino maybe after a win. I believe that I can easily be a target to any criminal who may be hanging around a physical casino with the intention to steal from any gambler who they saw win inside the casino. For that reason, I can never go to a physical casino on my own, even if I am about to die from boredom.

Well, I don't experience and have not experienced those kinds of nightmare situations with any casino, but on this forum, I have read about people having a series of issues with different casinos, and most of those issues are something that I have not encountered. The last issue I read about was the one in which the OP was talking about how he has been a customer of Stake Casino for so many years, but they never allowed him to stake a huge amount when he wanted to stake on a particular game, but that happened after he had won a significant amount too. 

In my country, there are a few casinos too, and I have not experienced any serious, ugly situations with them, nor have I with any of the casinos I have used on this forum.

Asking for KYC randomly? I had some coins on some casino and I realized the amount become bigger than I could afford to lose lately so I withdrew them to my cold wallet because I was afraid of getting scammed like the OP. Exchanges do the same thing too. It is called “selective scamming”. They only scam the good traders/players so the rest of the sheeple don’t get freaked out suddenly. When you think about it, owning your own private keys is the best thing you can do for your funds. Nobody can steal your funds from you unless you install a trojan or do something similarly stupid. The worst thing about KYC is, they often don’t really reveal any information about the ongoing process and it sucks.

I won’t feel anything if the gambling site blocks my account and they request identification before they are going to unblock it for me. Since I know I haven’t violated any of their rules and I haven’t done anything illegal, I will kindly submit anything they want to them. The only people who will be scared or feel bad are those who have done something wrong before. They believe that if they can submit their identification, their account might be permanently banned, and they will lose the amount they have won.

If I am gambling with a small amount of money and the team that I placed a bet on starts losing, I won’t really be affected, but my greatest nightmare will be when I decide to gamble with a large amount of money and the club that I placed a bet on starts losing. I can’t just imagine myself losing that kind of money, I guess that’s going to be my greatest nightmare.

That's a strange nightmare for you to have, probably because casinos will often vet your ability to play and even force you into a membership before you can ever step foot on to the gaming floor. Besides that, casinos generally know every little thing going on in their network and don't even want to get into the position that you describe. What could there possibly be for them to "investigate" in anyones account? If they don't want you playing there for any reason you would be blocked from coming in or escorted off the premises before that point. These places do, on the rare occasion of wins, pay out and you'll even find the staff there happy to see a winner walk out the door after seeing people losing money all night.

This is something that can actually happen to any gambler, male or female. but to be honest i really haven't heard of such an experience before, maybe from someone or a testimony online, about someone being robbed on their way out of the casino immediately after making some significant wins in the casino, but i do understand your fear, it is hard to trust anybody, especially inside a casino, because in there, you will find different kinds of people from different backgrounds of life and there is no telling to what they are capable of doing. it's possible that there could be someone in there who has gambled and lost more than he actually budgeted and maybe even took some loan on his quest for loss chasing and eventually lost the loan money on the process. it's possible that such a person would wanna do anything to recover the money he's lost, which would involve intercepting another gambler on his way out to steal his wins, so its okay to always be cautious at all time. i guess that is also one amazing advantage of an online casino.

When their shitty ass support system suddenly starts asking questions yet takes frigging forever to answer. I'm not afraid of being investigated (I mean, I already applied to their KYC lol), I'm afraid of there having been no progress in terms of the investigation.

After that, the next fear is them using their random bs rules to take my money. I mean I sure as well would not be dumb enough to not know their rules so I'm not really scared prior to that, but they do have a clause that they can do whatever the hell they want if they found something suspicious and well, even though I'm confident there's nothing they can find from my transactions or documents, it doesn't change the fact that the final verdict lies on them.

I don't have a ton of specific fears about gambling, but there are a couple things that make me nervous.  For one, you always gotta wonder if an online casino is gonna scam you.  Like what if you hit a huge jackpot and then they just decide not to pay out? That would be so messed up.  That's why I'm super careful checking out a site before I play there.  I look up reviews and stuff to see if people say its legit.  

The other worries I have is kinda about myself more than the sites and  i know some dudes get completely hooked on gambling and blow all their cash.  I don't think I'm like that, but I still try to kinda keep an eye on how much time and money I'm spending just to be safe.  Most nights Ill only gamble for like an hour or two tops cause my wife will yell at me if I stay up too late again lol.  But for real anything can be addicting so you gotta have some self control.


I get why you'd be worried.  Hitting the mega jackpot only to get stuck in verification purgatory? No thanks! But there are ways you can reduce or completely eliminate that risk: Find a reputable casino with solid reviews.  Check they've got the proper licenses and whatnot.  You want somewhere trusted that'll actually pay out if you win big.  And dont wait until you score that jackpot to get verified.  Upload your docs and get validated right off the bat.  That'll prevent any delays down the road. It can also help to keep meticulous records on those deposits, especially the big ones.  Casinos can get weird about large sums, so have all your paperwork squared away.

first of all, what casino allows users to deposit and wager their funds without tendering the KYC requirements ? How do they go about their verification process? (I'm talking about crypto casinos)
if that's the case, why don't you try as much as possible to verify all your documents? Cus even a trusted casino would do the same too...I've seen several cases being reported on the reputation board about this issue.

Security is a praramon thing for any gambler regardless of the sex be it male or female and physical cassino is most targeted,  but with online casinos you can hide under the privacy provisions since you can gamble in the comfort of you home and gamble all that you want without any one involvement wether you win or lose it up to you.

Any ways I understand why Queentoshi feel unsecured gambling as a woman and if you are from the same Location with her you will undesirable to gamble as a women most especially when it attracts public attention,  aside from the security risks, we have some other form of danger that females face being exposed to gambling in this part of the world where there is low level of education about gambling adoption and women involvement in gambling.

One of the reasons why I always take casino T&C very seriously is because I don't want a situation where I will luckily win a very big amount of money after losing all the time to the casino, and due to one simple mistake made by me, I will then suffer the faith of losing all the money to the casino or the chance of getting it.
 
So one of my biggest fears is getting my account locked out of the casino or getting my KYC rejected for no just reason because of a heavy win, which is why I make sure if I trust the casino I either pass KYC if necessary before use or I avoid it totally.

I don't think what the OP mentioned is probable at a reputable casino. Although we've seen a couple of reports against well-known casinos, it's impossible for us to know the full story and come up with a conclusion. Most of the time, such users have broken the TOS or abused some kind of bug, resulting in high returns. With that being said, since my conscience is clear that I'm not doing something that I shouldn't be doing, I've got nothing to be afraid of.

I'd be more scared of going overboard and spending more than I had originally anticipated or having a losing streak resulting in a loss of capital than what the OP mentioned.

I think for each person may have experienced a bad situation when playing casino. And it depends on several situations where make they should have face it and solving it with hard solution. I ever face it where when I played casino must have face the hoodlum where they ask my money when I won the games. This is like nightmare to me because when I don't give them money they will hurt me and stop me to play the games on the table. but, with this situation, I try to remain calm and ask for security to solve it and drive them away from my side.

which means you already trust the process of centralization? Are you aware that any casino could fold up as a result of either being placed on a sanction, running bankrupt or flagged as a distrusted site without your knowledge? ..and in cases like that, refunds are not guaranteed?..lol There are so many other things to be scared of.

---

every casino has an official rules and TOS ... No additional sentiments, no adjustments, no evasion of any sort -- that'd happen outside their TOS.. you can quote and hold them responsible should they go against it.

The truth is that it is a painful experience, but it is good that you brought it to share, in fact I am a person who is very clueless, and well, these types of things happen to me a lot, and it is assumed that sometimes we get upset because of the speed of the things, about life, about people, well we could have dropped it, I haven't had experiences like that, but one day I had a bad thing that happened to me, something very unfortunate, I was playing on frebitco.in in the which is from the automatic multiplier, for the reason that I didn't have much there, a little more than 1mBTC, but things were pretty good for me for that time, because with that 1mBTC you could do a lot, and I put in automatic mode, and it turns out that my baby at that time I  have to go out to help bathe him, put on a diaper and prepare the bottle, in the middle of all that, I completely forgot, and when I remembered, the obvious happened, all the balance, all my 1mBTC was gone and there were no traces left.

They won't touch us if they ever see any suspicious acts but if there is, an investigation is done just to prove that you did nothing and fairly play and win the jackpot price. But I understand why because they also have cheat experiences in the past making them now more careful and dealing with such events. It was not a nightmare for us unless they did this for misinterpretation and misinformation, that is actually a terrible thing that happened. Some gamblers claimed that it happened to them. Honestly, I couldn't really imagine how it felt when it happened to me. Of course, it ruins our image/reputation especially when a lot of people know it.

Well, first, what is the reason for them to cease your profit? I don't think they will just cease your profit without a reason; you didn't include that in your statement, OP. How will we know if this kind of movement by the casino owner is truly violating their own rules, or if they just see something that would cause them to cease your profit from your jackpot win? But if this is really done by the casino just because you have won a huge profit, then that casino should be reported, or that casino doesn't deserve any more customers. If this happens to me even though I comply with their rules and regulations, then I may be shocked and will take that matter to the authority'. The thing is, if what happened to you is being done by different casinos all over the world or even online gambling, then I don't think I will patronise gambling anymore.

If we are talking about online casinos, yeah, this could be, however, if you know that you didn't do anything wrong, not cheat, don't used VPN, uses only 1 gadgets, either PC/laptop or mobile phone with one IP addresses. And so even if the casino asked you for a KYC and you are clean then there's nothing wrong with it.

Dangers is on the land base casinos, sure you are safe inside, but you just don't know, maybe someone will follow you if they see you win big money and then wanted to go home. And we have heard this kind of news already, people getting robbed on their way home from casinos.

I can forego jackpots in casinos, but what I don't want to happen is knowing that my personal information submitted for KYCs in casinos are sold to someone else, and I'm framed for something I didn't do just because of that sold info. You can never really know nowadays, and these information are sold on the daily because they also profit from it aside from the profit they're taking from their gamblers.

Imagine law enforcements knocking on your door for something you didn't know about. You'll be sweating bullets and wouldn't probably know what to do. Even if you won't be charged anything, you will be getting anxious every day knowing that you're on a watchlist somewhere.

Filling KYC before playing, doesn't prevent this issue. Because the casino could require an higher KYC level verification once you get your winnings on your balance. Or asking an extra KYC, with extra documents.  So the only way to avoid that is to play at casinlos not asking any KYC at all, like decentralized ones. I see of them opening thread here since recently, I hope it will continue in the same way. And more will open and come here.

In my country casinos are prohibited, so it is difficult to answer this question.
However, I eventually visited casinos in Argentina and I confess that I was fascinated. I always start with little money, because my reasons are just for fun... have you ever thought about me earning $1kk and returning to Brazil with it? I wouldn't even be able to explain this to law enforcement. :D

But... my fear, I think what it would be like to win a considerable amount of money and someone is "monitoring" me, I'm very afraid of assault/theft because I've witnessed a dramatic situation in the past.
My fear is that a moment of leisure will end up turning into a nightmare or even a tragedy.

KYC is the one thing I don’t like to do, don’t hope or wish to do it either even in a jackpot or big win situation. Some of my fears is, having to win this whole lot of money of some very substantial value and I’m to be subjected to passing a KYC. I pretty much don’t want that as, it could always go either ways, for just any reason a casino can deny your KYC to be unsuccessful and depending on what stunts your willing to throw, you could as well loss both your stake, your win and your submitted documents for KYC as any Casino that could do that to you is surely not the safe hands to handle your documents. That’s such a terrible spot to be in, I wouldn’t wish that upon anyone!

This is our number one nightmare besides losing your bankroll from chasing your losses, we have in our mind this possibility that it could happen to us one day because we are in a gambling platform, and in a gambling platform anything can be expected like you can win hundred multiplier and earn huge amount of money.

The only WAY to address this issue is to play in a reputable casino and follow their terms so they will not have a reason to deny your payout because if they do, they will lose their reputation

Not really; I haven't thought of it that way, and I agree that there are plenty of things that can go wrong, and I definitely won't be expecting a refund if a casino goes bankrupt or is faced with sanctions. Keep in mind that the majority of casinos have licenses in countries that can't be reached, such as the Cayman Islands or Curacao. Thus, they'll hardly face any legal issues if anything happens.

However, most of these are highly preventable. Don't keep a large amount of money in the casino. Certainly, plenty of things can turn south without us realizing it, but it's also our responsibility to prevent such losses in the first place. We definitely cannot predict such incidents, but we can at least limit their impact.

If you have such fear, use a trusted casino platform where you won't be tempted if you hit the jackpot. Avoid using platforms that ask you to ask for KYC to withdraw any money. Although I never participate in slots, dice games for gambling I use the most trusted casino platform for gambling. Here every user should use a trusted casino platform that won't ask for any kind of verification documents even after winning a lot of money.

That's OP situation isn't a nightmare to be but that's a good situation that you can later on solve. But what's a nightmare that I am scared of is if I get into addiction. Like the typical situation that we're mostly hearing from the gamblers and having hard time to recover and coming to the point that their jobs and families become affected of the situation, that's just the harder part of it. Because no matter of how good you are this time but you become reckless and you're only focusing on your own entertainment, there could be a lot of things that can be affected by that mere decision of yours as you gamble. So, in short, being addicted, loaning money to gamble, selling stuff that I've worked hard with just to gamble and all of those having reckless decisions are my worst nightmare and losing entirely everything that I have.

Exactly, Addiction to gambling places will be very dangerous because it can attack self-awareness and continue to want to try to get money from gambling, even though you have spent a lot of money on gambling places, and the most dangerous thing is as you mentioned, when you are addicted to gambling places to the point where you lose all your assets. what you have is sold out to gamble until you don't have anything left and it will make life stressful. It is better to gamble well and control your emotions so that you are not easily influenced by gambling places.

My worst nightmare is playing in a casino that I am not aware is a scam casino and just finding out later after I win a huge amount of money, same scenario as people who play on 1xbit for several months only to find out that it's a scam casino and they couldn't get their money out.
So the moral of the story for you not to get into this kind of situation is to always do research and keep updated on the status of the casino you're playing.

Why would they even care about your financial background? It's not like you're a known gambling addict and have been on exclusion multiple times. They are also not some bank or a lending company that you're trying to take a loan from.

Worst nightmare is obviously casinos not giving the winning while they accuse me of made up violations.

very well said, same here! that's also a top in my list, getting addicted in gambling is the worst thing that I never wanted to happen in my life. Currently I'm in the phase of being wise, frugal and strict in my own rules because no matter how I try being exempted in addiction, we don't know what will might happen in the future but at least we tried not to become one. I was afraid I might be like my other relatives. I saw the consequences of them since they became addicted to gambling and that's what I avoided and didn't want to happen to me.

I have no fear over casino. Why you I have a any kind of a real nightmare if I play fair, always choose casinos that are legal. If I win, I will get the prize. If I lose, that is only my business. If I behave good, I would have zero problems. Simple. Maybe I would get a bit worried and disappointed, if I hit jackpot, but it turns to be a system error or bug. And even then the casino would reward me with something.

I can have nightmares in casino only in dream. God I dont want to be in a situation when I have problems with people like Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci from movie Casino) (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0112641/mediaviewer/rm3976370176?ref_=ext_shr_lnk) or Lenny McLean from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0572597/mediaviewer/rm681795328/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk)  ;D

i'm worried that when i win quite a lot of money, i find it difficult to cash out because in my country gambling is prohibited and people involved in it can be criminally charged. i'm just worried that the casinos are using this as an excuse to avoid paying their responsibilities to me, because they think that my country doesn't allow gambling and they're worried that they will be involved in something illegal. even though many people say that there won't be a problem, as long as your kyc has been approved, i'm still worried about this.

OP, your case is similar with what is happening around me. I use this local online casino to place my bet because we stake in our local currency. I have being gambling on their platform for more that three years now, and last week I won a good amount of money, which I was happy about.

The next day I wanted to make a withdrawal and guess what...this casino is now asking for KYC, and I got upset. I went to read their ToS, and found out that they just implemented it. This sucks right..I waited for somedays with the thoughts running in me whether to let go of the funds or provide my KYC. I still have not come up with any conclusions yet.

That is really hard to identify in the beginning, we sometimes test out new casinos and see how it goes for us. And then we play and have a nice experience. But then again, when we win huge money, that's where the problem arises.

Most of the blatant scam sites will find a way not to pay with a lot of excuses. And then there are casinos asking for KYC. What's worst is that in the beginning, they said that they are no-KYC platform until you win in the thousands of dollars and they refuse to pay.

A true nightmare if you have won a signficant amount or life changing wins and you've been suddenly locked up and been asked by tons of things then you would really be having that kind of panic in mind.
This is why you cant really be able to blame out other people on why they would really be having this kind of worries into their mind but of course you would really be able to avoid all of these things
if you do really just that make yourself that being sensible on choosing up on what site you are dealing with. Of course you would really be needing to stick into those known ones rather than
on testing those new ones.

It would really be just that a common approach on that way because if you do really make yourself that letting that too careless on making those kind of choices
then you are just basically putting up yourself on such great risks. You cant really be able to make yourself that to do something once those
winnings locked up specially when you are dealing with a scam site.

KYC really sucks for me. Although I know it’s part of the process, but still I can’t dare to entrust my privacy to a certain casino even if it’s known as highly reputable. But since I want to gamble, I did my part with KYC. But the moment you start winning big, then they’re here again asking for another document that will prove your authenticity. And in the end reject your documents because they don’t find the validity on it. This is the reason why majority of the gamblers still prefer to gamble at casinos not asking KYC, although at some point big profits withdrawal become compromised.

For a winning poker player the worst dream is a bad streak that goes on too long, where you've been in it for a long time and you see that you sit down to play and continue to lose, that makes you doubt your game. In the end they end but you never know when or how, it can be a slight improvement in results little by little as a tremendous spike in positive results that marks the beginning of the upswing.

We actually have the same nightmare.

To expound on the topic clearly, I fear that if I won a jackpot worth millions of dollars, there will be a technicality that can withhold my winnings, ultimately negating me for any prize winnings on my end.

The reason on why I chose this fear is due to various articles mentioning the same experience to other people in casinos. There have been report of people winning jackpots on slot machine, only for their winnings to be completely negated due to a technicality. Also, these gambling companies can get away with such technicality AND they offer some sort of consolation prize on your end.

I mean, in the grand scheme of things, a win is a win no matter how much you won. But still, if a person wins a jackpot then they are entitled to its full amount (minus taxes) and without any technicality from the gambling establishment.

I thought it is about the KYC asking after winning huge when they are denying
your payment and will do everything just to rpevent you from getting your win  ;D that
would be all our fears and nightmare mate haha


That is true, there are lot of issue about this same thing this is why i only play in games
that generates small chances of jackpot but generous in giving small wins.

         -    Yes, I also thought about that once, because if we happen to win a large amount, let's say 1 million dollars, it will not be possible to direct it to the bank immediately because the bank often holds it when they see that it came from an online casino.

And the banks always reason that the transaction is AML (anti-money laundering), so it is passed through casino gambling. If it is directed to the exchange, it seems that it can still be traced to where the money came from and can still be traced to gambling. Though I have never experienced that in real life,.

Same here winning a huge amount and being questioned about documents, locking my account due to huge winnings.
I think the second one would probably be the nightmare for most of us gamblers.

Unfortunately the decentralized casino can run away even though they will lost their reputations. But, people aren't interested about decentralized casino, that's why there are no big decentralized casino until now. I think, if those decentralized casino went big, the authority will force them to comply with regulations, which make them become centralized ones.

My worst nightmare in an online casino is if I won a large amount and then couldn't withdraw it. Or if the casino suddenly turned out to be a scam and just took all my money. When playing online, there is always a risk of encountering similar problems, so it is important to choose reliable casinos with a good reputation. I hope that my nightmare will never become a reality, and I will be able to enjoy the excitement without unnecessary problems.

This has not happened to me, but I have seen forum members that complain of withdrawal problem after winning big. It will be worst than a nightmare if it happens that I win big, and I am told to provide KYC documents for verification and after I have done that. The casino is still depriving me from cashing out, with excuses like, you have another account with the casino. Whereby, you know that you don't have any. I don't know if this is true or not, but I feel bad hearing this.

Well in the reputable casinos where I have played I have always had the luck of hitting near the max win which of course was not 50K but the casino did not ask anything,I hit an x11339 at Stake casino from Return of the Green Knight Slot and that was with minimum bet to be 1339 dollars won which I withdrew soon after and they instantly credited the withdraw to my wallet.I doubt there would have been any difference if that 1339 dollars would have been 13339 dollars for example,the same would have happened as real reputable casinos do audit all of their games they offer on a daily basis or on a weekly basis as a very minimum,so there is nothing to be worried,I am verified in these casinos so need to send documents to them from my side.

We've always been reminding other gamblers to gamble with the amounts that they can afford to lose because it's hard to control everything and you have no full control to situations. That's why start with moving on when you've been in deep losses and as well as your pockets too. What you have to realize is you need to be aware at most times when you gamble because no one is there to check at all times but only you.

We don't want to be in that situation. I can't remember if my past can be said as if I am an addicted gambler but I'd say that I was close to that but good thing that I was able to correct that in the long run. Just as you, let's all be wise with how we gamble, we manage our finances and of course, how we enjoy every single cents of our money as we gamble. Don't be too emotional and when you win, be grateful and when you lose, accept it.

Withdrawal issues has been most gamblers biggest problem with using a particular gambling platform, but in this situation, i want to believe that the gamblers plays the most vital aspect in determining whether this occurs or not, how can a gambler register an account and never think of having the necessary and required information's used for the registration of such account, we need to first considers the  kyc possible demands of a particular casino before using it and see that we have all the necessary requirements so that such will not be a threat when demand is made.

If your account at the casino doesn't have any problems it shouldn't be a big problem for you when you are asked for KYC documents when you want to make a withdrawal from your big winnings.
The process may be complicated, but if you follow the procedure, it won't be difficult. The casino has data on how much money you have deposited and how much you have withdrawn. they do it all according to procedures so that their platform is not misused.
that will indeed be annoying and should be avoided by anyone. but you might not be able to avoid it when you get a big win someday.

What you're describing is quite scary for me too, and I don't want that to happen to me, because it would make me hate the casino I'm playing at, it's not logical that I lose 1/2 of the money and then there's nothing like a warning or advice, but when we get a win that's many times over but we're suspected and even frozen or can't withdraw the winnings, it's a nightmare.

The second thing I don't want is when I still have funds in the casino then my funds disappear without any notice, and that's what I don't want and I think it's a nightmare that no one expects, hopefully I don't have that experience in the future.

I think this is every gambler nightmares too and when the casino claims there was a fault from their machine and decides to compensate you instead of giving you the money that you have won. Some casinos don't value those using their platform and they also won't care if the reputation of their casino will turn negative. Big casinos that value their reputation won't do anything to spoil it but there are small casinos that won't care and this is the reason why using well known casino is better.

Small casino will refuse to pay the win of gamblers when that amount can make the casino to go bankrupt but for big casino, they won't bother about the win as they can pay you and it won't affect their finances. For online casinos, my nightmare is for there to be a server problem and it shutdowns my opportunities to win a big amount. I have lost due to power failure in tradition casino so I have that fear.

After winning a jackpot, the real concern isn't the casino becoming the FBI and investigating your life. That feeling of procedures and regulations crushing your aspirations and unattainable win is worse. What the hell? Playing straight and getting lucky puts you under more scrutiny than an audited banker

Man, here's it. Money is important, but not everything. Gamble because of the chase, the thrill of beating the system, right?  Knowing your wonderful win could be ruined by corporate BS?  It spoils the atmosphere

So what do you do? You gota educate yourself. Your sole advantage against the house in this game is knowledge. Know the rules, loopholes, and landscape. Because winning and getting away clean is the dream. We risk for the adrenaline, the insane sensation that life might alter instantly. Avoid paperwork junk that takes that away

Nothing scares me when I gamble. Issues like this above can be avoided if we take casino reviews seriously. I will not patronize any casino with negative reviews, especially on cases where gamblers find it difficult to withdraw their money when they win. Most of these casinos are manipulative and will bring up unnecessary challenges to their clients that will prevent them from withdrawing their earnings. When I gamble, I make sure my account is clean and free from any form of issue that will pose as a challenge. I do not need to go to the casino with fear and doubts, I  cannot stay where my peace of mind is being threatened. Some of these challenges can actually be avoided if we take note of the possible things that might be a challenge.

When you are one of the gamblers who is so meticulous and involved with full vigilance and strong discipline by always obeying the rules that have been applied and suggested by the casino then yes maybe we will not experience something that we worry about such as having problems or failures when trying to cash out the results of the winnings that we get when we are lucky. I'm sure that you will see first about how the reputation of the casino is before you get involved and bet, and if you think it is reliable then yes I think we don't need to worry too much.

I think this incident is not uncommon and I also have one friend who is a victim of irresponsible casino fraud where the casino did not pay the winnings won by my friend and in the end they froze my friend's account, but yes I can't fully blame the casino because this world is filled with people who have bad intentions that sometimes we never expect scenarios, and maybe I would blame more on people who are less careful, but on the other hand ignorance about the potential for fraud like this can also be a trigger.

Interesting thread and I saw some interesting answers... all in all, most of the answers are similar to your fear, and I'm not much different about that. In my opinion, $50k is a lot of money, so that amount or any amount above that is huge. I wouldn't call it a fear, but it would be really awkward to win a lot of money and to have problems with withdrawing that money. I can't even imagine myself being in that kind of situation, but if it ever happens I will try to stay cool-headed and make some screenshots just in case, maybe a video if possible.

Yes I think the response of all of us will not be much different in addressing this issue of concern, everyone will definitely feel worried about unexpected problems like this and in my opinion overall this is an unexpected problem that cannot be completely avoided unless you are really lucky or unless you really know how to avoid it, and yes on the other hand obviously 50K is a very large amount and I really can't imagine what if I were in a situation like that which obviously it would make me feel hurt when I failed to cash out my winnings because of irresponsible casino parties. But anyway, it's a really unexpected problem and it's normal for you or anyone to feel too disappointed or hurt, but let's not overdo it and let's just say that we really weren't as lucky as we thought we were to end up experiencing problems like the one that derailed the withdrawal process.

Shouldn't anyone and whatever background be, when someone gets the jackpot, it doesn't matter who the winner is? Or what are the T&Cs? In fact, when they want to recruit more people to use their platform, they are targeting all levels of society, not just the top level. So if someone wins the jackpot from the normal level, then this shouldn't be a problem, right? There is no need to be afraid as long as our winnings are pure and in accordance with their T&C, not the result of cheating. Sorry, because if im wrong,  I'm not really familiar with this situation.

The fear in casinos is the ethics of loss control. In the sense of not being able to control yourself and leave the casino, both online and offline, properly. Money management is very necessary, but sometimes it really loses control when you are too busy in the casino. That's because it can make us addicted, and addiction is something I'm quite worried about.

This would be one crazy feeling and I would definitely don't want to experience anything such thing or issues with any casino and the worse part of the whole thing would that at the end after all the whole deliberation you were still not credited the funds.

Sometimes I also see these complaints on the scam accusations board and I would say to myself, what if I were the one having this problem? Because of all these things, I have made it upon myself to always check the TOS and also check all available and needed stats about a particular casino before I engage my gambling on them just to avoid unnecessary situations.

Gamblers must be prepared and have all of the relevant information on hand just in case of a KYC request, and there are several red signs to look out for when selecting a casino to play at.


1. Consider avoiding casinos with poor customer service.

2. Avoid casinos having a reputation for being difficult to withdraw cash from. Furthermore, players should be aware of casinos that have a history of often altering their terms and conditions, since this may indicate unethical business methods.

3. Before joining up, conduct some research on the casino's reputation.

The narrative highlights the importance of responsible gambling.  While the excitement of a potential win can be enticing, it's crucial to remember that gambling is primarily a game of chance. The detail about placing the bet due to a low phone battery adds an interesting layer.  Sometimes, inconvenience can lead to unexpected situations, in this case, a misplaced ticket with a fortunate outcome.

The frantic search for the missing ticket after discovering a potential win amplifies the comedic element.  Imagine the emotional rollercoaster of believing you've won, only to have reality set in with a misplaced slip of paper. The ending, with you being the only one home when the ticket went missing, adds a final humorous touch.  The suggestion of someone else taking it, despite being alone, injects a bit of self-deprecating humor into the situation.

I found out there are gamblers who couldn't access their win money because they lost their bet slip (ticket) that contains the bet code that will signify you're the authentic owner of the won game. That's the kind of worst nightmare I never wish should happen to me or anybody I know of as it could be painful and depressing at the same time. Many stories I have heard of patterning loss of bets lip, this one was that the wife took her husband's clothes for laundry not knowing one of the trousers has a bet ticket inside the pocket and that was how it was washed of and the paper destroyed, but then all those games in the ticket played but the man couldn't lay claims because he has no evidence to tender for ownership. What a night that is!

Sounds like you barely read to the end of the topic, he isn't serious about it just a mere assumption, yeah gambling is legal in many countries, doesn't mean you ain't got no nightmares you are afraid of, what about losing all your earnings to gambling wouldn't that freak you out or lers say you mistakenly linked your casino to your bank account and pit it on auto fund of a huge amount like 100k and then you went in and used in all on a game and you lost, I bet that is a nightmare 😉

I don't know but it seems that yes he didn't pay much attention or maybe he explained from another point of view that we don't really understand, but we are back to the main topic where yes I will admit that nightmares or unexpected painful things still have the possibility to happen which maybe there are some gamblers who have experienced it and also maybe there are some other gamblers who are still in a situation of concern.

But from what you said it seems that it is not entirely a nightmare that comes unexpectedly but something that is done intentionally because of not being able to control his gambling activities, for me the real nightmare is when I get a big jackpot but the casino is unable to pay it which makes me have to be in a situation of annoyance and pain, but if basically all the triggers for such events to occur are you doing it then I think it is purely your own fault for not being able to control gambling activities.

I don't get what you are talking about.  If ypu are playing slots and win big presumably it's not too much money that you played with but hit a big jackpot.  Amd either way if that's a thing why couldn't you just say it's from your savings.  And what's the threshold where they say the funding wasn't "legitimate" and take your winnings.  Don't think in a brick and mortar casinos in the US that could happen.  They make you sign tax papers but that's for payment, there is no check into your personal finances or job history.

Really interesting conversation here, some fears stemming from psychological reasons, some due to not enought information. For me, it's more like I get worried about not being able to stop gambling when I should. And you say it so nice. Really, it isn't just about finances, it's more about crossing the line from pleasure to addiction. But sometimes its hard not to get too excited about both wins and losses.

Honestly loosing ones ticket or betting slip is as same as forgetting the password to your bank account or mobile device, one cannot have access to the bet made except he has the slip, another alternative is when he has the unique reference code for that, then such gambler may use that to login into his account and reprint his slip using the reference code, some can as well access such through their device if they have the code as well, but without any of these, the game is forfeited and no recovery to that no matter what the amount may be.

I think this kind of incident will never happen in an online casino since all the bet are digitally stored on our casino account.  The worst thing that might happen is a glitch that may not consider our bet and marked it as null or void.  It is indeed depressing to experience such thing but the lose of the betslip(offline betting) is the bettors fault and not the gambling provider's.


They are not the same because forgetting a password can be resolved by talking to the support staff of the site and ask for the password reset, while losing a betslip will never be fixed by talking to the people in authority.  Once a bettor lost his betslip and the so called unique reference code, it is the same as not betting.

It is indeed a worst nightmare if one has hit a huge amount of money and not be able to withdraw due to some unfounded allegation of the casino jut to deny the player of its winnings.  It is also the thing that I wish not to happen to me.

how can a casino withhold their players' winnings even though the winner is quite rich, don't want to lose to a casino that cheats your winnings.  my biggest fear when playing at an offline casino and winning some money is that i will be robbed, but my biggest fear when i win some money at an online casino is that my account will be blocked for no reason by the casino owner.  i often hear that in countries where gambling is legal, players are strictly protected and casino owners cannot do as they please with players, but i hope nothing bad happens to me when i play in offline or online casinos.

There's absolutely no evidence of gambling for these huge losses made by one tough gambling addicts? The big question pops up? How can we save him and not record him?There's enough evidence holding him already, he's having no clean records on the contrary. What could be more challenging and frightening than watching your profits vanished before your own very eyes. Gambling and pointing out the usable games but keeping it lowkey should be our targets, can't afford to be the top trends on Twitter or on any blogs.

I almost don't have any nightmares because I always choose to bet at several trusted casinos on this forum even though I thought the same as you said, but after seeing large withdrawal traffic, there were even those who withdrew very large amounts of funds but didn't have any problems at all. my favorite casino, I feel more comfortable and think more positively.
and on the one hand, thoughts or nightmares like this I can easily banish from my mind by looking at myself that I am just a small bettor who will not possibly get big profits whereas I always bet small amounts of course when I get a big multiplier. certainly not as big as rich gamblers.

maybe that's the only thing that makes me gamble comfortably because we gamble to have fun and try our luck to get a big multiplier and if we always think about these nightmares it can affect the pleasure we get will be reduced because we are always uncomfortable and worried if that happens.

Worst nightmare for me would be that I'm accused by the casino of cheating and that casino isn't your typical casino but a mobster or mafia owned casino, that's going to be anyone's nightmare I think especially if you didn't do any of the things that they're accusing you of, you'd be scared to death of this one, your imagination will be going through all the worse things that they're going to do to you just to make you pay for what you've done.

I guess that you're watching too much mafia movies but this is truly scary. I've seen real life situations like this that lives were being compromised because of some "big" people inside the organization and the gambling industry.

Anything can happen like kidnappings, bribery and all of those scary stuff and that's why I just want to remain as a casual gambler and don't want to get involved with those kind of bigger pots.

Well, what I am about to say probably not a worst but can be said and conclude that it is and when it is when I see my wife do it and we meet inside the casino premises.  :-\

Almost every day is a nightmare for me. I always use a reputable casino and my winning has never been withheld but the truth remains that losing funds to the casino is a nightmare especially funds that were initially kept to be used for a better purpose. Every gambler has a sad experience because you must lose and some lose hits harder than others. There is an experience I had with the casino that I cannot forget in a hurry. I was heading home from work and my director gave me money to buy some items that we would use for work the next day. Before the close of work, a friend called me that I should meet him up at the casino after work. I stopped to check up on my friend but he wasn’t there. When I called him, he said I should wait for him and that he would be there in a jiffy. I waited and started gambling. I lost the money my director gave me and was pained. I became angry at my friend and everything then appeared like a setup. I had to use my savings to cover up to avoid losing my job. Isn't this a nightmare?

The only way a gambler can escape losing in gambling is to stop gambling. As long as you gamble, you must lose money. That is the only certainty in gambling. However, to avoid reacting negatively you have to gamble with an amount that you can afford to lose. This is the only way you can live with the nightmare gambling creates in the life of a gambler.

Yes, that's true because the casino accused us of cheating. It may already happen in some places especially when there are gamblers who can win a lot of money from casinos. The casino will immediately check the gambler to ensure that the gambler is not cheating.

Maybe the casino has something to do with the mafia because the mafia also runs offline casinos. They do their business by running casinos as a place to make a profit.

That is why we have to be careful in choosing a casino and always ensure that the casino can be a comfortable place to gamble. We also have to be careful in using money for gambling and only use money that we can afford.

KYC should only be a nightmare for you if you know you can't comply with it and can't provide the required documents if you are asked for them because if you can comply with KYC rules and provide any document the casino asks, you shouldn't think of it this way if you know you have managed to win something significant and you can do anything to get it withdrawn. Can you say no to a KYC request by the platform if you have won $50k? You can't, right?

For me, the worst nightmare is probably winning something significant and then losing it all back to the house because of greed. I know it happens very often with every gambler with small amounts but if the amount is as significant as $50k or maybe more, you can't forgive yourself if you lose it all back.

Can you do me a favor by telling me the name of your country? 50k is too small for any casino to hold for any reason, if they are finding it hard to pay 50k then such a casino can't be trusted, I can call my lawyer on this and we go to court, this will be resolved in a court unless I don't have the rights, or I can't provide some legal documents.

You should always use a popular casino to gamble, you can't be struggling with luck for months and eventually you get lucky only to have problems withdrawing your rewards, thats going to be a very bad feeling, always use a online casino that you can trust.

I have no real nightmare with gambling because I dont put too much interest in gambling, would have if its worth it, but making money this way isn't real so I tend to gamble using small money to have fun, I have battled with realism and fantasy in my early days when I was young, gambling doesn't fit as something that can work out if you devoted much of your faith and mind on it.

Gamble responsibly.

When I was younger my worst nightmare in gambling was always going broke. Watching my strategies fail and seeing my whole bankroll disappear in front of my eyes was giving me nightmares. This was probably due to the fact that I only focused on roulette in the beginning of my gambling career and used martingale based strategies. I always found it easier to follow a fixed strategy instead of making up my mind every round on its own. The problem of course with these martingale strategies is that you can go broke if your initial bankroll is too small. Before betting any money I waited for 5 times the same color coming and then I would start betting on the opposite color. My biggest fear was that I would lose all my money when the one color trend continues and to only see my color come after I had no bet left. With one win alone I would have recovered all my previous losses and falling short one single bet would have been devastating. Luckily this never happened to me and now I am much more cautious with my bankroll management to avoid going broke.

Inherent risk of having our money held at ransom at the cost of our personal documents. Indeed such things are bad things about online casinos and I dont see any good way out from this situation. The worse thing is that it can happen with anybody, but law abiding citizens are usually not getting into trouble, but you never know.

It does not make any difference in my opinion. One site getting leaked is enough to get your info on the dark net and to those who need it for unscrupulous needs.

Best thing would be to avoid gambling, which is possible but difficult for the members of this forum. :D

Banned in the gambling sites. Two of them, the most reputable ones. That will be my worst nightmare especially if I have funds left in the account.
And to make it worse, I will be starting from scratch on another gambling site before I receive their promotion and bonuses. I don't like to go through that rigorous phase again.
The incentives of a VIP rank are so good that I don't want to start all over again. I know both gambling sites that I entered are both reputable ones so I guess they will be here for the next 10-20 years more.
There are gambling sites out there which was made with better UI and almost a futuristic design but still, I don't like jumping from one to another or two in my case. Just the two will be enough and reputation is still far better than just a better UI.

Well. I understand getting banned for your both prefered casinos could be a nightmarish situation for anyone, specially if you happen to hold a good VIP account on those casinos which took you years and hundreds of thousands of dollars in order to reach that VIP status. But there far worse things which could happen, in the case of online casinos specifically.
What if someone from the regulators and intelligence agencies made a mistake and targeted/flagged your KYC documents as belonging to a member of a criminal/ money launder organization? Because of such big mistake, you would not only be banned from those two casinos, you may not be able to summit your personal documents again in other casinos on the internet without the staff of those sites to ban you immediately.

That is the kind of nightmare I would never wish anyone to go through, what do you think? Don't you agree? 😰

Note: I am aware it would be very unlikely for it to happen, but since the flagging system is managed by people, there is always a chance.

If its only $50K, the lawyer fees could be the same or more than that.
There are still other options and free, such as bring the dispute to the casinoguru or askgambler.

To the OP: After winning $50K from slots, and you submit a max daily withdrawal/big amount - the casino might ask for a normal KYC, such as an ID or passport.
I dont think the casino will make it hard for you, because you win it from slots (almost impossible to abuse).
And yes, there are some casinos that will ask for a proof of income/source of income such as payslips or screenshots from your trading account or else.
The casino cannot confiscate the money/crypto you have, after the KYC process is complete they have to pay it.

There are still many crypto casinos that are not too strict with their KYC policies, and its not too difficult to find information about that on Bitcointalk.
Check their threads and topics about them in the scam accusations section.
