Gambler was being robbed

[Belec]

I heard the news. But I heard a story from a month ago. How a gambler borrowed a lot and began to rob himself in order to repay the debt. Even though he had won several "successful robberies", he did not return the money for debt, but he still spilled into the casino and lost more and more. This can lead to a situation where a person is committing suicide, and there is evidence that the gamblers are robbing.

Recently, a Korean National has been robbed here in my place while riding the Taxi going home and lose the money that he won in the casinos, Its around 4Million Pesos or $75,000. This is not new in gambling industry since many incidents like this before. Do you ever think its a real accident or its just an inside job where the employees of casinos are involve or the casino itself?

This is a once in a lifetime opportunities to become a millionaire, and yet it is being taken easily by a more greedy people. Now I’m wondering if its still safe to go to casinos or better to play online? What’s your thought about this?

Thats a really huge amount to just ride a taxi having that amount ,without companion?theres a lapses in that korean national though i am not blaming him yet he must have done some precautionary measures while inside the casino,also a chance of inside job may be real of maybe not none of us can tell because criminals are also spreads in casino waiting for prospective victims

It would be reasonable to suspect the casino if theives robbing the winners was common thing. Could be that the thief was trailing the Korean man from the casino.
I thought Casinos pay large wins directly into winners account?

Yes, these much big Winning amount should be transferred directly into the winner's bank account or cross cheque should be given which should be cashed only the him. Also i guess that in this particular case, it seems that someone from the casino actually knew this and he might be the one who follow the winner and stole his earnings.

It's usually an inside job. That's one of the dangers of winning a big amount in an actual casino especially if you're there by yourself. The casino itself may also be suspected here though i'm sure they'd never admit such.

I mean, it should be expected by every costumer. Safety first.

What will you do with dollars if you're alone and get attacked? Are you well trained enough to take down the attacker? What is he is armed? What if it's more than one?

Of course, in developed countries this kind of risks are really low but people who succumb to corruption can exist anywhere even if it is not a widely spread incident in those countries.

Experienced and smart gamblers and professional poker players have a lot of money, which is the reason for the large number of gambling gamblers, it's not that weird.

The first point is that we should not take any debt or borrow any money to play gambling. A person who is borrowing the money has no Money with himself and in case he lose in gambling, that would be a worse night mare for him as now he also have to repay the debt. This is the reason we see people committing suicide or are in high depression who take such risks.

That is what I think after I read that story. I only think that the casino will use other people to robbing the winner because the casino has lost too much money from him. It could be true because the winner takes a lot of money from the casino, but unfortunately, that winner gets robbed in the way back home. I only hope that in someday, if we are the winner and we can win much money, we need to hire someone or ask our friends to get back home with us, so we are not alone to go home.

Gambling addicted person suffer with this mentality, they are too much engaged with the game they've love to the point that after they'll going to
sell everything that they've had or like what you have said, lending money without any particular means on how to repay it, ending up committing
things like this or something  that will ruin their lives.

How do you rob yourself to repay a debt? Sounds like a zero sum game.

LOL. His comment didn't even make sense.

In the same vein as the original story, this one was pretty interesting too, from Aug 2017:

http://philippineslifestyle.com/korean-gambler-hanged-himself-after-casino/

Basically a Korean guy hanged himself in a bathroom at the Manila airport because he had just lost $400,000 gambling at casinos and was about to be extradited to Korea on fraud charges. Apparently he was hoping to make back the money he had lost/stolen, but since he didn't, he feared he'd be killed in Korea. Talk about going in over your head!

this is clearly not an accident or coincidence because how could someone know that person had a lot of money in his   pocket or bag, thats why, we gamblers should take notice of this incidents and take a precaution, always be careful when going out there to try and gamble in those casinos.

Online gambling access will eliminate and avoid people getting caught into the hands of robbers who focus on winner returning from the casinos. This isn't the first time, already several such incidents have taken place. In cities where casinos are quite high often encounter this issues. Here it is possible to catch the robber with the help of police, the same if lost through some security issues on online gambling we cannot rise a ticket anywhere.

Criminal are too smart that they will know if a person is rich or not  by just basing on their looks  .  other probabilities could also happen  . maybe he already knows the victim and they already spy it before he enter and exit the casino  .

Gamblers should already know to their self that what they are doing is risky  . not because they will possibly loose but also they can threaten their own lives if ever they got overboard of playing or whenever they play outside .

Looks can be deceiving mate so i guess this is different occasions specially that the criminals that involves here seems to be organized

They may be observing the whole casino looking for prospected victims and this korean becomes the first to appear

But we cannot take the possibilities of inside job for the reason that they are the one whos infront of the victim to learn how much he has in hand

So picking the gambling site is major in online gambling,most of the scam sites can be found when reading the reviews about it on google so we actual can find the legit ones very easily.

Sounds very much like an inside job. It's too good to be a coincidence. The fact that the casinos are usually owned by famous gangsters and politicians who have governments in their pockets. It's fairly easy for them to do activities like this.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunities to become a millionaire, and yet it is being taken easily by a more greedy people. Now I’m wondering if its still safe to go to casinos or better to play online? What’s your thought about this?

Even online casinos behave the same way. Not all but mostly when you have a big win they introduce KYC policies and other crap especially shitholes like sportsbet.io, vegascasino.io. Avoid them.

Perhaps, the only one reason that person got robbed is that he was telling the cab driver about his winning in the gambling game and he told how much money he wins. So this will makes the cab driver think about taking over his money by making incidents. I believe it is still safe for us to go to the casino, but we need to be very careful with the win money because crime will be around us.

Also wondering why the people will tell the unknown person that they won this much amount in casino etc because it is like inviting the trouble for them self unless you are informing you own relatives or friends which was not the case here. Also, when the amount is big you should call your friends and ask to pick you up and drop where you need to go so that it will ensure the safety.

Anyone can be a suspect, therefore one should be careful when bringing money in cash.
If there are casinos who scams their gamblers online, then it's also possible in offline work, so you cannot discount that possibility.
There is no use of blaming, he should just learn from his mistakes.

[bering]

All scenario which mentioned by people here looks possible even possibility the casino aren't willing the players win too much money and they will do anything to avoid it but the problem is we have no strong evidence that the casino were involved because it could be usual robber which only can done by someone who aiming this player when he was out from the casino
