Are casino rules applied fairly or only when it matters?

[Josefjix]

All centralized platforms that accept deposits and withdrawals behaves this way including banks, they never questioned large deposits because they profits off it and question withdrawals because they loss profits whenever that is made.

It's all about business they are doing, hiding under so called government regulatory body. Withdrawals isn't their friend, deposits is their friend, it's a stage plan.

[Accardo]

That's because anything that's on their advantaged won't be questioned. That adds to the pool of funds they have that's being rotated to the business. And so, any deposit that's getting inside whether they're big or small, they won't be questioned. It will only be asked when they are going to withdraw that. The scenario for most gamblers who have been asked for kyc are mostly the same as you have said. While you're right that all should have been argued and there's a reason why they do that, mostly that's the reason why they have no case for big deposits as it's in their favor.

Casinos are ran by men of business, they set up policies, rules and guidelines on ways to enjoy their services. They try as much as possible to be sure that the player hasn't cheated or broken rules in the past or currently before winning big, players are not innocent of this too, before depositing huge amounts on any casinos, gamblers tend to scrutinize the casino to be sure their money is in a safe hand. The casino is doing this not to retain the money, but to be sure that wherever this money goes, it'll come right back to them in a short time. Cheaters are likely not going to be back, they must have been there to win the money and leave completely, the casino would assume, which is bad business.

That's human nature for you, they smile when huge deposits are made because they're making profits but when it's time to pay out big wins, they frown and screen the account looking for fault to avoid payment. I think, the casino is after your money and they don't give a fuck about you.

The human nature is such that everyone just think about how to be better for themselves and there's also that messed feeling when you're beaten in a competition such as those that bets against their friends.
So also it's when a player beats the house with a huge sum like winning a jackpot price.
Definitely the casino would be deemed to begin dig your account if you'd have any reference issue or asking you to proceed a higher Kyc just by the request of the player to withdraw his or her jackpot win but doesn't ask players to do the same when they wins small amount.

[Asuspawer09]

I mean large deposit are already huge funds on the business for sure they are not going to anything that will make you withdraw that they mostly wanted you to lose that money in the platform, in the end of the day this casino are huge businesses they wanted to earn profit and they surely going to do anything as well in order to lower the payouts of the users they are a lot of gambling websites that is doing that.

I remember when the pandemic hits, and onlineg gambling become popular in my country, it was really popular and there are a lot of streamers on social media that is actually promoting online gambling, if im not mistaken they are getting paid a huge amount to promote. And there are a lot of websites that is doing it, there are one video that I actually watch get viral because if recorded and explain how he win fairly a huge amount of money in one casino, He keeps on playing for i think 18 hours just rolling the bet, until he accumulate a huge amount of money, but when it is already going to withdraw the money, he gets an issue on the withdrawal, and thats when it all started, when he talk to the support about it, the support instantly told him that his winning is not valid and it was an error, and his account is going to be banned.

This casino are also like a custodial platform I guess, they could freeze your account at any moment at there was nothing you can actually do about it.

[Kelvinid]

Just because we are seeing it badly, then we can arrive at a conclusion that casinos are not performing the rules fairly.

We should have known it from the first place that legal casinos do not operate alone following their own rules and goals, but everything should also be aligned with the government rules and policies for casinos, otherwise their operation will be at doomed.

So if you think you are seeing it unfair to you, you are being subjective. If you are actually playing in legit casinos, they will uphold fair rules and policies regardless if you are a high roller or an average gambler.

[Youngrebel]

This is a good question. But some parts of the thread has been discussed. Casinos does not request to verify your deposit immediately but they do it alongside with your withdrawal or along the line. The decision is for them. And  once they discovered the huge amount what they normally do is to monitor the account how the money is use.

[Cantsay]

But why are large deposits not questioned? all this things they argued why are they not applying them during large deposits?

Because it’s a business and as any other businesses, they’ll be happy to see high roller because any mistake would profit them while those high winners are a thorn in their businesses and that’s why you don’t see them questioning gamblers for depositing a large sum into their account but the moment they win and wants to withdraw it, you’ll see them slamming the gambler with so many requirements (well, this is applicable to all those shady sites not reputable ones like coinroyale).

[Slow death]

The strange part about all this is that many casinos ask for KYC as soon as people create accounts, but they don't create problems when people make large deposits and lose everything. We could even argue that since people lost money, there's no problem with money laundering because they've already lost everything in the casino. The problem arises when people deposit small amounts of money and manage to win a lot of money, and when they try to withdraw everything, the casino blocks the withdrawal and the cycle of accusations begins until the person gets tired and gives up. This is the behavior of new casinos, less than 2 or 3 years old.

Well, that is how they do business and cheaters will think of a way to cheat the casino. But, the casinos know more about how doing a business and so, they all anticipate and know how to run the operations and all the policies that they're making. Almost all of them are the same in the deposits and that's why you won't see any complains related to it unless the deposit hasn't been credited yet.

[Smartvirus]

But why are large deposits not questioned? all this things they argued why are they not applying them during large deposits?

Firstly, we must understand that the casinos and gambling platforms out there are a business and as such, they are out to make money. Hence, their primary concerns hangs on tackling ways that could make them loose money.

Now deposits isn’t them loosing money and it can raise only one question and that’ll be, it’s source. It never becomes alarming if the address hasn’t being flagged. If that be the case, you can be rest assured they might activate AML policy.

When you win, several questions do pop up and most times, it’s only relevant to the casinos. Questions like,
If you are indeed the one operating your account?
If you are a part of a betting syndicate?

These they put into account and go to make several enquiries on how to prove legitimacy.

[Accardo]

Casino have the best team on human emotions and psychology, they're far ahead of what players could think of, that is why it happens like a magic to see a jackpot winner going back to their previous job after multiple years of spending the won funds on games.

Actually. The opposite is what is more common. It has become more convenient for casinos to allow people to register without going through KYC, so the gambling as start as soon as possible. The problem comes with the rules imposed by regulators on withdrawals and the fact casinos are supposed to know their clients when they are in the situation of giving them money, even if it is money which is owed to them.

Ironically, if there were more casinos which asked for identify verification as soon as one registered as a new user on their service, then there would be a proliferation of anonymous and un regulated casinos on the internet.

[tread93]

I would like to raise something that many gamblers think about, but don't always say openly.

Everything usually works smoothly when a gambler is losing, deposits are instant no delays, bets are accepted quickly no one questions the gambler activity.

But the moment the gambler hit a big win things change all of a sudden,  his or her  account goes under review, KYC becomes urgent, technical validation are discovered, withdrawal are delayed, old terms are quoted and so on.

This act from casinos got me thinking, are casinos really enforcing rules consistently or do some of them become strict only when a payout becomes expensive?

casinos usually argue that, large withdrawal require enhanced security checks, Anti money laundering rules demand verification, fraud and bonus abuse detection system trigger reviews,  risk management is part of the business and so on.

But why are large deposits not questioned? all this things they argued why are they not applying them during large deposits?

The large deposits they dont care where they come from that is their lifeblood. Of course they only care when its all down to them parting ways they want to keep as much of that as they possibly can and its a pretty wild thing to see again and again. Some casinos also get "glitches" at just the rifht time lol

[Mr. Magkaisa]

There are so many players in a casino and it doesnt matter to any business when you are giving money to them or they are earning from you.
All people are simply customers and they can come in anytime, noone will care for you as long as you are enjoying and the company is earning.
Things will change when someone stood-up and caught the attention of someone specially the finance. Everyone is welcome and not screened but can play.
It matters when someone wants to earn from them or will do withdrawal. ofcorse there are many of the player who do the same thinf for their money and that is normal also.
Noone will give you the attention, everyone is equal again and normal things happen. Thing get totally different when someone hits the bigpot and making big withdrawals.
This is same even you go to normal or physical casinos. You can get your withdrawal on any machines and make it to cash or over the counter.
But the machine hits the big win or the jackpot! You will see on screen that you should call for a personel of that casino for them to assist you,
Before you can get that big amount the verification is required. they will start asking you the ID for the screening, it will also comes the verification team if you are qualified or you are one of the people who must not play in any casino on that country.

SO this is it, It doesnt matter to casinos if you will play and deposit, you will be a normal passer to them which gives the money to their pocket.
Rules will be applied when you are standing in the crowd hitting something big.

[TheUltraElite]

We are seeing from our point of view, as far as I have seen casinos release big wins as soon as security checks are complete and dont halt it unless some red flag is being triggered because they also understand that holding off a big win may lead to the winner starting complains why they are unable to withdraw such a big amount and escalate to forums like this one for resolution.

The ones that get posted here are mostly solved generously unless the person was cheating or trying to fraud.

[Julien_Olynpic]

Of course, to be completely consistent, a casino should check the cleanliness of funds upon entry. But, of course, no one does this. After all, some casinos can freeze your funds quite legally and appropriate them for themselves. Even if the funds turn out to be linked to drug trafficking or other crimes, that's no reason to hand over these "dirty" funds to the state. The casino will keep them and won't be embarrassed by the fact that it owns dirty funds, lol. So, use only what you're comfortable with.

Two of these points bring out a more extensive problem that casino regulations are not necessarily unjust, but are interpreted in a manner that supports the risk management of the casino. Most platforms postpone KYC to have people on board and proceed with deposits to maintain the flow without making the experience difficult as depositors are losing. But, when a player wins and wants to withdraw the money, then a stringent verification will be required, as per the regulations. This gives the illusion of non-congruity, although it may be technically in the game. As a matter of fact, the system is originally made in this way. KYC in every location in the upfront may decrease conflicts but could also make users move to less regulated, riskier sites.

Casino rules are meant to be applied fairly as written in their terms of service. Some features should not be prioritized over the other. I agree with you that this is a good question. A question that needs answers from casino support because they need to hear this. Most casino supports do not follow the rules of the casino, they follow their own instincts towards what they do.

Given the new regulations, it’s only natural that this happens when someone hits a big win, since the goal is to ensure greater security for both parties the player and the casino itself which likely wants to verify that we meet the withdrawal requirements. But it does feel a bit odd that this only happens with big wins, whereas they don’t do it with smaller wins. And regarding your question about why this isn’t done with large deposits, I agree I don’t know the answer either. Is there anyone among you who can provide the answer? Or is this a question that can only be answered by someone who works at a casino?

[junder]

Once a casino begins operations, it establishes its own rules, and anyone who violates them will certainly face consequences. With the implementation of enhanced KYC procedures, it’s still reasonable for them to be enforced during large withdrawals even if some people might object. As players, we simply have to follow them to get what we want if we don’t comply, we won’t be able to get what we want. What we must remember is that the casino is the host, so they can set the rules as they see fit.
