You should move this topic to scam accusation.
And you should have been more careful the site isn't really trustworthy you could see that the OP of their official thread has a negative trust.
I don't get it why there are still some gamblers out there like you who would risk their money on random gambling sites when there are so many trusted sites.

Hi, I deposited money at CatchaBTC.com, I played and then decided to withdraw my $200, I found out that my funds were transferred to an unknown address at 12:02 am, a few hours later I withdrawed and the status is "in progress". I haven't received my money, people in the chat room say that withdrawals are instant no matter how much money I withdraw.

Here's the deposit address I sent bitcoins to and as you can see there's not my withdraw address but another one..

I opened a ticket on the website but I don't think I'll get my money back.. I wanna die lmao

While I don't have much faith in CatchaBTC ,  I think you'll get your withdrawal .  The fact that it's still in progress might mean their hot wallet is empty at the time . Happened to me a while back , the hot wallet was empty and I couldn't literally withdraw 50 $ worth of bitcoin , and it seems this is something quite frequent for them .  So while I believe you will get your withdrawal , I suggest to not play there again . A "casino" who doesn't have enough money in the hot wallet for 200 $ most likely is gona go dark sooner or later.
+ that I think they're using a bustabit license illegaly.

The transaction link you posted looks pretty normal, that's how bitcoin casinos usually do it. The coins you get back or sent to your withdraw address don't usually come from your deposit address. I think you'll get your money but like alex mentioned they don't have a license (https://www.bustabit.com/license.txt) so avoid them from now on.

I advertise captchabtc for about half a year now, got a lot of referrals and a few highrollers playing and never saw a complaint. You'll get your money, don't worry and be patient.

Would be nice to get a official statement from captchabtc here though.

That's normal if it transferred to another bitcoin addresses as that's how usually their system works (cycling). Pretty much this was not a scam case to be consider (if your btc was sent in time,), perhaps you just need to wait patiently for your withdraw to be sent out. Be very careful choosing when you'll sending your btc. Always do a research first.

Sites that are violating the terms of bustabit's open source license and should
not be considered trustworthy:

• catchabtc.com

Edit: They've instant withdrawal features, so your withdraw shouldn't be taking longer. Hope, you'll be lucky to get your coins back as this site is operating illegally.

Did you check it on the blockchain ? Maybe a small fee was used and it's taking longer then usual to get confirmations.

This was the bitcoin destination address s/he input. Please see below link

And there's no upcoming transaction showing. What can we expect to a website that's running unlicensed? >:(
