When the Jackpot becomes a disaster.

[Dewi Aries]

That's why it's scary sometimes to play in physical or land-based casinos because when you hit the jackpot and someone is watching you inside the physical casino, there's a big possibility that you don't realize that you who have the jackpot can be followed by the person watching you play gambling.

So it's still good to play online so that at least if you win a jackpot, no one can follow you because it will only happen via online transaction, but the only risk is if the casino will allow you to withdraw the jackpot you won easily.

True, from the beginning this is also one of the reasons why I am less interested in getting involved in physical casinos, none other than because we never know that there are always people who have evil intentions when we succeed in getting a win in any amount, and these possibilities really have to be considered, it doesn't matter if you prefer physical casinos to online casinos, but make sure that you have various preparations and high alertness when you do win.

So far, yes, I think online casinos are much better and safer and because of this, maybe most gamblers prefer to switch to online casinos, because besides being easy to access, online casinos can also make you free from various threats such as the case experienced by the person told by OP, and yes, as you said, it's true, my friend, that the only unwanted possibility that is very likely to happen in online casinos is when the casino does not pay the winnings we get, but I think if you are able to choose a reputable casino, then that shouldn't happen.

most likely the victim did not realize that he was being followed by the robber. I am sure if he realized they were being followed, they would not go home and would choose to go somewhere else as the first destination after bringing the winnings. it could be a police station or another crowded place where there is guaranteed security that can help them.

we can see how people can be very desperate to hurt others for money. not only when we leave the casino with the winnings. the same thing may also happen when we take some money from the Bank. around us some people are watching what we do, they are just waiting for the moment to act. we must be vigilant.

That is right so that makes us to be careful when we are going home. If we win that big money from gambling, we can ask for the security casino to take us to go home with the money because that will be safe for us. We don't have to risks our life and become a victim because those who will going bad to us will think twice to harm us. People can hurt others to have the money and that can make us in trouble especially if we are alone and can not handle that bad guys. That is why we must be careful when we carrying the money and if its necessary, we need to contact police or a security to go home with us.

Of course, online casinos are the best solution to such problems. We will get tired of listing how many advantages online casinos have over physical casinos. In a physical casino, you will most likely be exposed to great danger if you win any significant amount. As for attacks for money, they happen not only because of large sums. We know that there are many employees who receive a good salary and often withdraw it from ATMs. I know businessmen who earn very large sums per month, but nevertheless are not attacked by robbers. Perhaps, robbers have some prejudice against casino winnings that this is not quite "honest money". Perhaps they think so.

That's why you have to be careful with money and let people know how much you have. It's better to go unnoticed, and if you are rich you better learn what stealth wealth is if you don't already know.

Casinos have tight security within their premises, but once you step outside, the case can be different.

In the specific case of a casino, even more so. If you win a good amount of money it is better to take precautions when going home as you say, making sure you are not being followed.

Of course, online casinos are the best solution to such problems.

It's one of the reasons why I prefer them as well.

[Lida93]

Sad for the couple. Looks like the two were arrested though but it's always after, and never during/before in these types of things. Damages have already been served which only time would heal after all. Just very odd how people can be THIS desperate for $3k. It's big, yes, but considering the consequences? Definitely not worth it. .

Not every wounds that time heals bro, assuming those bullets hits a part of the bone which could lead to amputation of the man's legs? I wonder how time gonna heal that. And the crazy part of this is that the law is going to give those criminals a 6months or a 1 ,year jail term or so, after which they get back to the street WALKING freely, whereas some innocent guy is on a wheelchair or clutches all his life. Damn!

It's for some reasons of this nature that many jackpot winners plead with the company to stay anonymous or even going to the extend in wearing costume to disguise themself from being identified by friends and the public when coming to claim their money. At the end of the day online gambling makes a much safer  sanctuary than the physical.

Definitely terrible story,  God forbid it should be about us. This has remind me the other story  have read somewhere years ago. A guy has  made a scoop in the course of the two-days uninterrupted gambling. Back in home he argued with relatives that his streak of luck was not sporadical and to prove his words  played up the Russian roulette just in front of them. The end was tragic.

Yes, but still, the brick and mortar casinos are still thriving because of the atmosphere and it was entertaining to play and see a lot of fellow gamblers. There are even like families playing together as I observed on the casinos that I've played here.

But definitely, if you win big then you should be aware that inside you are safe, but if you try to go home then there are dangers lurking. So you must take every precautions, I even heard people who really win big to just stay in the hotel for at least 24 hours and then go home when he feels safe with the jackpot money he had.

It is very scary to know news like this, when there is no guaranteed security when exiting gambling.

This is unfortunate, but it is not new in the world anymore, it could be gambling-related or other reason-related but it's just sad to be gambling-related this time, robbery can happen any time. This is why we should be security conscious and not believe that since a thing like that has not happened to us before it can't happen, no victim prayed for what happened. That's part of what we pay for the lack of security and cautiousness around us. I'm not trying to judge that guy but if we investigate what transpired at the casino, it could have been too open, and he might have been exposed. I wonder why the guy did not opt for the electronic transfer option to avoid much attraction to himself.

I can't imagine myself taking that amount of money home when it was obviously won from a public place where I do not know the intention of anybody. This is the same reason I am too careful whenever I withdraw a sizable amount from a bank or an ATM machine.

Security is key, we do not know who is watching!

[pawanjain]

Damn, that's bad. I hope they didn't take his life away by shooting him, yet, both of his legs are injured now.
If he would have knew that his win would have costed him both his legs getting shot then he wouldn't have hoped to win.
This shows why gambling on a physical casino is a great disadvantage.

However and in any case we will never know about what will happen in the future, it's like destiny, but if from the beginning we apply a lot of caution and high level of alertness then it is likely that it can be minimized a little, and of course whoever it is including the person told by OP certainly does not know that something that should be fun actually brings disaster.

With this incident I think it is likely that the next person will prefer to make online casinos a place to fulfill their gambling habits, and of course this is also a reason why most gamblers prefer to get involved in online casinos compared to physical casinos, because indeed you will avoid various possibilities such as the incident told by OP and besides that it is indeed much easier to access.

Yes, gambling on physical casinos imply the disadvantage of having thieves around the environment, just observing gamblers' sessions, in order to spot the winners to go after them once they left the betting shop to go home. It's even more dangerous if the gamblers are elders. For that reason, it's a good measure adopted by the gambling house to offer drivers to take the customers home. This way, the gambler will reach home safely, being escorted by a casino's employee by the final destiny.

If a thief is lurking in the shadows, he will think twice before attacking, because he won't have the advantage on that situation. In every cases, jackpot winners should be careful to not attract undesired attention to themselves. It's always a good idea to be discreet, to not walk alone in empty dark streets, and avoid attending to dangerous zones of the city, doesn't matter what hour of the day it is.

it was also a coincidence that he won and played in a casino where there might be many people lurking. I'm sure the people who robbed him were also in the casino when he won and witnessed his victory.
whether it was planned or not, criminals like that most likely have been used to hanging around physical casinos to see opportunities to commit similar crimes.
unfortunately, the perpetrators knew the location of the victim's house. if they were caught by the police and received punishment, it is possible that the victim or his family members would also be in trouble in the future.

[DiMarxist]

These are some of the things making people not to announce their winning and went there to meet the cashier to withdraw the big win quietly without anyone knowing. Because your best friend can also hunt you down. There are some gamblers who won big amount of money would be telling everyone in the casino hall and there would be jubilation all over and non gamblers in the village would also hear the news and when the bad bouts hear the information, they would like to visit the gambler to collect the money and if there is no cash then they can shoot you to died because of anger.
We should always learn how to maintain our emotions when we win big because we don't know who is after our life. $3,000 is not even a much win but the winner was shot in his two legs.  This is a very bad news and also a lesson to those gamblers who like to over excited when win big.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

I found a news story about a robbery incident experienced by Delacruz, a Florida man who was with his wife.
He won a prize of $3000 at Hard Rock Casino and then after returning home from the casino tie he was followed by 2 men, Marcus Jenkins and Tristin Wright and tried to snatch the $3000 which then happened to shoot Delacruz, Delacruz begged for his life to be saved after being shot in both legs.

Sad story. Although $3000 jackpot may sound a lot of money but there are people who carry lot more than this money with them unfortunately. Robbers don't see what is the source of the money. When you are carrying cash there are always a risk to lose it and even to lose your life.

It's unfortunate how he was robbed and even shot on his legs even as they succeeded in collecting the money he won from the casino. This is also a good example to remind us how dangerous gambling in the open or physical casinos can be. Had it been he made the win on his mobile phone or PC at home, such wouldn't have happened because there would be few or no persons with the knowledge of his win. I personally prefer mobile casino than gambling on public casinos. Though public casinos could be more fun than you expect, especially when you play with friends and it would be more fun when you're on the wining side. But in summary, we can obviously learn from the story that we are aren't safe when gambling on public casinos as we might be watched .

Whenever you do value your life then you would really be giving out on what you do have because there's no value that could get in equal into our precious life. It is really just that sad that there are really people who are really that having this kind of criminal minds that ending up on neither torturing someone or abducting or would really be pointing out guns or any other just to get those amounts.It would really be that understandable that we are living in a world on which criminals are really that around. If you dont really like to have that kind of security issues or chances that could happen into you then it would be better that you should really be sticking into those online gambling platforms rather than on making yourself getting involved into physical ones. This is surely one of the main reason on why people do prefer
this now because into these kind of instances.

Plot twist: The thieves who shot the winner and stole money form him are hired by the casino itself.

I just made this up but it can be possible as casino owners usually have good political connections.
It would be easy for them to hire such theives and get their money back from the winners.

Yes what you said is indeed a definite possibility, or I mean I am also quite sure that 90% of the robbers were in the casino which maybe from the beginning they came with the aim of watching and spying on the lucky people who managed to win and then following them when the gambler was on his way home.

I also don't know much about whether the crime had been planned in advance or not, but what is certain is that I am also quite sure of what you said that most likely the robbers were used to carrying out their evil actions, which is the reason because they really did not hesitate to finish off their victims by shooting and even wanting to kill the gambler when he did not want to give the amount of his winnings, and on the other hand yes I also do not know about the latest news from the case especially about whether the robber has been caught or is still on the wanted list, but what is certain is that if in the end he is caught then of course as you said that his family will definitely be in trouble, and it seems that the sentence is more or less 15 years in prison.

[crwth]

This is another reason to play Online instead of in a land-based casino. There are some bad guys who are watching big players or lucky players Who win a lot of money.

Maybe it’s easier just to get it in the bank or something. I’m not that much of a land-based gambler, but would it be possible?

When we become the center of attention because of the money we have or because we have just won gambling at a physical casino, then there will always be crimes that will threaten our safety. Therefore, I prefer to be covered with the money I have rather than having to show it off because it will bring danger to ourselves. In gambling at a physical casino, they (people with evil intentions) will always pay attention to gamblers, when they win a large amount they will immediately become the target of people with evil intentions like that. Some people have online casinos, and one of the reasons is because they will be safer because when they win big, only they know, unless they themselves tell others. It's useless when you can win big but we have to worry about our safety.
