Gambler was being robbed

[virasog]

This is why there are casinos who escorts high rollers and big winners from the casino to their hotel room and some would even offer a free room for those who lives far from the casino and its already late. There are those who hires police escorts and security personnel specially those who are junket operators.

You are talking about millionaires who likes to gamble but there are some common people who like to do work 9 to 5 and come one for gambling at very rare occasions those are the person who will get robbed because they may not familiar with the place,they won't get much personal security for them.

This one does not belong to the millionaire in gambling, if he is, he would have an escort going to a casino.
The fact that he only ride a public vehicle, that makes him typical gambler who got lucky for a night but end up unlucky since he is robbed.

These are the people will get targeted by the insiders when they got more rewards on that day.

That is why always test our luck on internet that going to a real casino.

Yes, it can be insider job too as they only know that gambler has won big and carrying large amount of money with him. But this does not mean that we stop going to casino and play only online Gambling.
We can still take precautions and ask the casino owners to transfer money online in bank if the winning amount is huge.

Don't trust the gambling owners too they might want their money back so they also can steal it from you.If you want to be safe then having online transaction of win rewards will be fine but still the robbery can happen to your cards and pins.

It might be an arrangement with the casino house were he win because many things are happening now and people are losing integrity daily.  However , it is very good we should also provide security for ourselves in the event of this type of winning.

yes it should be a news for alert in all type of situation because the robberies are happened in the unexpected times so the security needed to be more tightened before then now it will be the way to get safe for your investment on money in any time.

Such incident was really unfortunate but the likelihood of inside job was high. Who would know that a certain foreigner had loads of cash at that time? So even if there is tight security, an inside job knows when to attack his victim. So better stay in the hotel for maybe couple of days and plan what you need to do with your money that will make it secure and safe.

Some gamblers bring mafia on the site so they can bring the odds on their side. If anything happens, they will have some backup and will clean the rest. It's very dangerous to win and bring home a lot of money 'cause everyone wants to have a huge profit so they will do everything just to bring back that money. At least that Korean is safe and that guy didn't kill him/her, he became poor instantly.

This should be served as a lesson to those gamblers who choose to bring huge cash in casinos. Its a clear inside job and I believe casinos are involve on this. Well, the crime in casinos are really increasing because of many gamblers, the authority should do something about this one.

We should learn a few things from this happening. The gambler didn't calculate everything and it would have been better for him to try and get home with a tram which is full of people, pretty sure in the tram it would have been harder for the thieves to coordinate.

This other one is an extreme reaction which I learned when I was working in the Balkans, in Bosnia and Montenegro that this robbed person can kill the thieves if he finds them where they were, I was astonishing to hear that but it is true in those countries.

[ethereumhunter]

I hope we don't have to get that experience in real life and it's better to stay with online gambling

I think there is a way to prevent from being robbed and some people just miss this because they don't think it's a big deal to carry on the money to go home, but it becomes a problem when you get robbed.

That is what I'm afraid because we only have 1 life and we don't want to get killed because of that money. It's a sad story to hear a person get killed by the thieves and I hope it's not happening in my city.

This is why a lot of people carry guns especially in America.  You never know when someone is going to rob you or kidnap you.  I think most people are paranoid and overly cautious but when they read these type of stories they get frightened.

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?

Here’s the link for your reference (it’s not translated in english but I’ve already share the summary of this news):

Well, it is not a new scenario that a big millionaire gambler has been robbed because ever since there are really cases of robbery when a gambler comes out from a casino empty handed or not. It just proves how greedy people are that just to have money, they will rob other people's money for their own sake. What is just questionable for me is why you have think that the casino itself is involved into this scenario? Well, I think it is still safe to come into casinos as long as you have small money into your pocket which will not attract robbers around. That is why I am into playing in an online casino not just because of convenience but as well as the security so I will not be a victim of such robbery in the same time, I can still enjoy variety of casino games to play plus an opportunity to receive great reward of bonus for doing your first deposit.

It is literally not a new issue because many cases have already happen that is mainly due to greediness of other people wherein they will do everything to obtain money even if they do bad things such as robbery. That is why safety and security of gamblers from casino establishments are at risks when they go out heading home because there is a possibility that they can be victimized by those kind of people. Maybe I should try also playing into that online casino you were talking about because sometimes I get afraid whenever I go home from casino establishments that it may come a time that I will get victimized by those people which I do not want to happen.

Well, it's undeniable that most cases like this literally happens in any places across the globe because there are people who wanted money but to obtain it easily, they will do such thing like robbery. Greediness is really the thing that pushes an individual to do something bad just to get what he wants. You can see the online casino I am currently into and check for yourself the convenience of it where you can play variety of games even you are at home if you are really afraid going to casino establishments anymore.

Such incidences can easily be avoided if all casinos and gambling centers were regulated and required by law to payout in blockchain - doesn't have to be Bitcoin- could be something faster.
Once something like that happens the gamblers would never need to carry any cash - let alone lose them in a mugging attempt.

Also, $75000 does not a millionaire make.

You cant say such thing even its just $75000 but this amount on 3rd world countries would already consider you as a millionaire and with that amount you wont
really hesitate to make such crime.Those dudes are just lurking either inside or outside casinos just waiting up for some victim who do recently won.About that blockchain thing you do mention
if that thing would be implemented then it would really reduce completely these kind of scenarios but for sure it would still takes time for them to consider.

[FIFA worldcup]

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?

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.

This has become mainstream news you know, people get a big won at the casino and went home empty-handed, because they were robbed. this has become an intention/plan for criminals. so the way out is to move to online casino will be easier and more secure

This is indeed very unfortunate. Wining at gambling is not an easy task, and when you do then you have to face criminals outside of casino who can rob you. I think Online gambling has solved this problem so big extent as money transform digitally from one person to another and cannot be stolen in between.

Well the worth of gambling industry is 530 billion dollar which is a whooping amount but I feel that it has these negative effects on individual basis in the long term.

Their machines have been engineered in a way that would not let a gambler win every hand. The house would do anything to make the gambler loose money and scandals like you mentioned are very common. Of course some one has to pay for those luxury casinos.

If you gamble online - especially with crypto - on computers not protected well enough, hackers can steal from you too.
If you go to casinos I think that some allow you to deposit your winnings to your bank account. Or you can watch your back, or you can call for some more friends (or hire somebody) to watch your back.

There are plenty of ways to ensure you don't get robbed - online or offline - and there are plenty of ways to be careless.
So at the end, it's about everybody's preference where to play and how to keep himself (and his wealth) safe.

We cannot avoid it, if we win in the casinos especially a big amount, especially on to the casinos one thing that we sure just secure your self and your winning first. Just aware your family members and ask them they will pick you up at the casino so that you will secure. Its not new this kind of news because there is someone watching us everytime we gamble on casino.

[TheRealAwesome31312]

If you have the casino deposit directly to your bank account, then the bank will steal your funds by holding on to them for a bit

He should have deposited it in his bank account if that's the case instead of bringing the money by himself because a lot or robbers are just waiting outside checking if someone won big and well obviously to rob that person. Also it could be that an employee from inside has contact to those robbers and informed his friends that a specific person won big so the friends outside can easily target the person. For me, it is okay to go to casinos but just make sure to be careful, smart and observant of your surroundings.

Instantly there won't be any access for immediate depositing of funds from the casinos. Upon the same gamblers were into compulsion to carry the funds with them after winning. After this incident people will be more careful when they get out of the casinos.

[electronicash]

the casino allow him to bring the cash home that way?

but i don't wander, if it happened in the philippines, it can happen again anywhere in the philippines. there had been several incidents like this where Chinese and Koreans are the very victim. families were asked to pay for ransom, the usual suspect are the lone sharks in the casinos. there was one korean that were choke to death inside the police camp all because his family didn't send ransom. the suspect was police officers. don't be a gambler when you are here in the philippines because they'd look at you as a potential money source.
