UPDATE:
I received my 84 BTC from FortuneJack (1/12/2016) after they verified the win. Thanks for all of the support guys!
And thank you to FJ for keeping your word and ensuring that you're a reputable casino!

TO BEGIN: This is NOT a thread against FortuneJack, which is why I left their name out of the title. This is just my experience right now, and I'm writing about it to get some feedback and keep myself occupied while they do their "fraud investigation". If they are honest, then I have absolutely no fear of losing my winnings because I did not commit any type of fraud. I just want to be able to spend my winnings, and I want to have evidence of this entire process while it goes on.

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to the online BTC gambling world, but I've gotten insanely lucky so far and I'm enjoying it.
So I went to this site called FortuneJack, and I started my first time betting a little bit of BTC. After playing around, I started winning.
My first "big" win last week or the week before was over 20 BTC. I actually had it up to 35 BTC at a point, but I gambled away 15 of it and withdrew 20.
Since it was such a large amount, FJ had to approve it, but within a couple days it was good to go, and I was very happy with it.
A few days later, I started playing again (I believe I started with like 3.4 BTC), and ended up winning 14 BTC that day (I withdrew 6 and 8 as I kept playing to make sure I kept my winnings). These withdraws were approved immediately, without any issues.
Last week, I went in again, this time starting with 0.19 BTC. I was doing a variety of small bets as well as all-in bets, and I managed to get it up to 16 BTC with really awesome luck and very high risk bets.
So, I decided that 6 BTC would be enough (since I was very happy with that already), and decided to put a "MAX" bet on #1. I also put some money on the "0" because it always lands on 0 when I forget to bet, and then I lose everything.
So, the game goes, and it lands on #1! I didn't realize what happened at first and kinda thought I lost, but then after looking for a second I realized what happened and freaked out. I was up to over 86 BTC overall!!
I immediately went to withdraw 84 BTC because I didn't want to spend it, and kept the >2 BTC to bet with, which I ended up losing. Good thing I withdrew the 84, right? Well now I'm not so sure, because it doesn't approve immediately. It just says "PENDING". I messaged FJ and after several hours finally got a response, and they said everything would be pushed back after 48h and they would proceed (due to New Years), which made sense. So I got in touch with them again today to check on the status, and apparently I raised flags with their fraud team, which I understand it's a large amount of money, but apparently it's going to take 10 business days minimum for anything to check out. That means I won't see anything at the very earliest by 1/18. I was really looking forward to paying off my car and looking into business ventures, getting pre-approved for mortgages and proceed with life, but this puts everything on hold again.
I'm writing this in part because I want there to be some evidence of this happening, and being so new to the online gambling world, I am extremely sketched out now because I never heard of a casino "holding payments". And having me be accused for fraud is very insulting / upsetting. I know if FJ is honest that I will get my winnings soon enough, and I really hope they keep to their word, but it's still such a buzz kill. That's something that I didn't think could ever happen.
Again, I'm not bashing them in any way or challenging their credibility. They have already payed out 34 BTC to me (and I've deposited nearly half that), so I don't doubt their abilities. The last time I wasn't up for "fraud inspection" though, so I'm a bit worried now.
Just thought I'd ask if anyone else has ever experienced, and if it's a common practice for every online casino to do.
Inserting proof below. You can see the "Last Win: 79800.00mBTC" and my "Balance: 86217.00mBTC" plus the withdraw on the second image for "84 BTC" which is still "PENDING".
Wow thats so awesome, I would totally poop myself if I won that much bitcoin at once. Dont go spending it all of course try and save some for the hard times ahead. Congrats
