Can online betting blocks your account because of your too much winnings

[IjawMan]

The story you have narrated is a normal thing in casino business. If you are winning consistently, some casinos will request for KYC to be sure you are a human.  Some good casino do add this to their TOS but they phrase the statement in such a way that it does not directly mean asking for KYC due to regular winning. Running away from the casino is not the best decision because they acted within their TOS and even if your friend wants to run,  the casino he is running to may require the same thing if wins consistently.

When a player does know about this actions of casinos they can get frustrated and scared at same time and the fear that he was not going to get his won cash but later did, that fear may have made him close the account with that casino.

If I was the op friend I would have continued using that casino cause they already have my details and now knows who is behind the account and there can be no need for seizure of money next time he becomes lucky with a streaks of big wins.

He just has to be rest assured that the next casino will request the exact details if he gets to makes those big wins there again. The casinos are all acting on AML regulatory policies.

Because of this incident that happened to my colleagues, he withdraw all the money and close the account, so question is, assuming you are to be the the guy, will you close your account with them? Because their characters mean that the owner of a gambling site do find joy when ever a customer loses.

I can also do the same by closing my account to avoid future occurrences, but on the other hand, still playing in that casino can be the best thing since you have already encountered the issue, and they have unlocked the account. There is a high chance they won’t lock it again as long as you don’t violate their rules. Since it’s also a local casino, it’s possible they are just implementing an anti-money laundering policy and don’t hold much stuff against the player.

[Ojima-ojo]

There is this my colleague that doesn't have fear if he loses or wins but what he focus more is how to be winning always and not minding regardless to his high staking power, that he might lose most times too but the last amount he stake with, was $377.28 to win $754.56, and this my colleagues was lucky to have won $754.56 three times in a role using $377.28 as his staking power, do you know what the betting site he was using to place all those betting, they blocked his account and tag him for money laundry and do you guys know the funniest part, upon his winning, that my colleagues has not withdraw any of his winnings from the online betting site and he was able to contact some of his friends and they provided a number for he to call customer service and when he finally called them, they asked him allot of questions that ended of him going to the bank to print out his paying slips and statement of accounting that shown that he is a working class and then upload it in there site and after doing all that, finally his account was late open and he was able to gain access to his winnings.

How are we going to verify which site your colleague is using to place those bets,?


You should point out all the details including the site he was using, and again what doesn't sounds right to me is the fact that your friend just keep winning, but you and I know how gambling works, you can't win consistently so how did your colleague just keep winning as you said?

[Mate2237]

First of all, your friend needs to stake carefully because that amount of money is quite huge for just a single bet but it is absolutely fine if that's within his capacity and like you clearly stated he is not afraid to lose, so I guess that's probably why he could stake an amount that high. It is possible for an account to get blocked when it is suspected of fraudulent schemes, like cheating, money laundry as you mentioned and other things as well. On their part accusing the player of money lundry is quite unprofessional because the activities carried out doesn't indicate such.


Some people say that he should not have stopped using the casino but in my own opinion I think that he might be making the right choice because you cannot really tell when such issues might come up again in the future or probably even worse. The most important thing is that he was able to get his funds back and that proves that the casino isn't a scam but their conclusion and actions taken at first was not right.

[nara1892]

Congratulations on the win! By the way, the amount your friend received was double their initial bet not triple , To answer your question, if I were in that situation, I’d most likely do the same thing your friend did. I wouldn't close the account, but I’d probably just leave it be and never make another deposit there, that incident alone is enough of a sign that the betting site might not be reliable when it comes to paying out players' winnings. Your friend was lucky to actually get that payout.

[Anayochukwu]

I will do the same thing because why would they close my account because I have been winning repeatedly, they didn't bother to close it when he lost money but only rememberd to do so when he won plenty. In this case I suspect that they thought he wouldn't find a way to make sure he gets his money and they thought he would let it slide and forget about it, gambling is a business but closing a customer's account because they are winning seem unfair to the customer and I'm sure your colleague has also lost money to them too and these betting sites should add these rules in their website so that users can know.

But the amount mentioned that was won was nothing big. I understand there is a big amount a gambler could win continuously; the casino would give the user restrictions in the case that the player hasn't withdrawn rewards. For some casinos that restrict players, they conduct investigations to ensure the player is not manipulating the game.

 If they find out the player is genuine, the player can have access to the account. But in this case, it seems the casino is one of those greedy casinos that kicks users out for no reason when they are lucky and winning consistently in the game.

But in this case, it seems the casino is one of those greedy casinos that kicks users out for no reason when they are lucky and winning consistently in the game.

We can't decide that yet, there should be clear evidence needs to make a conclusion but what I noticed is the users always miss out the details that is against them but blame the casino as scammers. Here the casino hasn't kicked out the user, just waiting for the source of funds which is completely justified and even the casino you play regularly can ask you to that in any moment.

Because of this incident that happened to my colleagues, he withdraw all the money and close the account, so question is, assuming you are to be the the guy, will you close your account with them? Because their characters mean that the owner of a gambling site do find joy when ever a customer loses.

If a casino demands verification for a $700 profit after staking 1/2 of my win amount, that is a huge red flag. Reusing the casino is not an option, I would cancel every membership with the casino. From your explanations, it doesn't sound like a crypto casino, is it?

Although a wager of several hundred bucks is quite a bit of money for an average player, it's not the amount you'd think could cause problems.

The bet amount was $377 to win $754, is that amount really huge? The bet size is very small to normal for some gamblers, not enough reason to freeze his withdrawal. What about those betting with thousands of dollars? Now I believe his friend used a small casino that is not used to having big players use the site.

[o48o]

First of all, use segments in your text. That's annoying to read when everything is written together.

Secondly, what sort of site is this? Why would any respectable gambling site ban players for winning hundreds of dollars when they are likely serving gamblers that are millionaires as well.

Thirdly, you only need to have a job that doesn't match the money you are depositing to get reviewed. You can have that for using cryptos that are tainted because they are linked to a crime. Or you can get your account frozen if you are trying to mislead where you are from or if you are trying to hide the trail and origin of your cryptos.

[len01]

so question is, assuming you are to be the the guy, will you close your account with them? Because their characters mean that the owner of a gambling site do find joy when ever a customer loses.

No, I am not going to close my account. I will just bet lower amounts than I used to.

In the case you mentioned, it was actually not the casino’s fault. Sometimes, the casino’s system detects unusual patterns, such as a series of consecutive wins, which can trigger the system to freeze a customer’s account. Eventually, the casino may ask the customer to complete KYC to prove that they are not involved in money laundering.

Besides, the casino reopened the account after the customer completed KYC lvl 3 or 4, and that is actually one of the good things the casino did and deserves to be praised for. So, don’t misunderstand the issue.

[Justbillywitt]

That must have been a poor betting platform that your colleague was using to gamble with. A casino that will flag an account for winning less than $3k combined winnings, are never a serious casino. I will close my account the moment I withdrew my last cent on that platform. I won’t go through all those stress and continue gambling with such a site. Moreover there is no guarantee, that they won’t behave in such manner, when I win bigger amounts in the future.

[BitBakerr1]

I don’t think an online casino is going to actually block your account for winning too much. The only thing they can do is to ask for KYC if they have not done that before, but if they have done that they will not bother asking you for anything, you will just continue enjoying your win.
If a casino block your account because you are winning too much then just know that the casino is a scam casino, they are not reliable and honest.

I have seen news of a casino blocking someone for winning a huge amount of money and the casino did that because they are scammers if a casino is not a scam casino they will not do such.

[Fiasem20]

It is common that most casino don’t pay their customers in full after a big win,but it all depends on the casino.Most new casinos that haven’t gained ground in the gambling industry they usually try all they can to limit customers stake because if they don’t and when a customers wins a huge amount of money it may directly affect the casino and refusing to pay would also cause poor reviews from customers.In my own perspective you friend may have bet in an unusual manner that must have triggered the casino to block he’s account that’s why it’s very important to read the terms and conditions in other not to violate the betting rules and the casino rules generally.Also incredible wins may make the operators wondering if the customers is a human or robot,that is why they usually request for a KYC in other for a smooth withdrawal.

Can online betting blocks your account because of your too much winnings

Of course they can... It seems you're new to these things. I have heard so many stories, In fact,.some customers go as far as dragging some of these betting platforms on social media like X. And what makes the whole thing frustrating is that some of these gambling platforms don't often communicate properly before or after the restriction has been imposed... The ones that attempt to communicate sometimes just inform the person that they have breached their ToS.

For me, I might as well do the same thing because if they never showed interest in customer's source of income after making a deposit or experiencing a crazy length of losing streaks, a sudden show of interest after consecutive wins only proves that they're looking out for their own interests, and as customer, it's important to look out for my own interest as well.

This is an obvious one and has happened many times in the past, but there are two types of "block" that can be put in place. The first kind of "block" is often quite underhanded but might be triggered for genuine reasons. Sometimes a player is able to trigger a bonus amount which can appear in their account but actually takes some steps to go through in order to be able to withdraw it. If someone tries to withdraw that amount early then it can get blocked. Sometimes casinos use trickery or unfair rules to try and prevent a player from withdrawing, but generally they can point to specific terms on why they stopped someone cashing out. The dirty casinos will actually fake reasons or just not pay out thinking they can get away with ripping off the occasional player who has a lucky streak. The second one is when a bookmaker determines that you are winning too much then they will likely restrict the size of bets you can place, but I'm not sure you'd call this a block as such and it doesn't apply to casino games.

If the guy had used a reputable betting platform he wouldn’t have experienced such things, I mean the money involved is too small. $700 isn’t that much to talk about compared to what some people use to placed bet on some other betting platform that I know of. Again I will be glad to knw what platform he used just to atleast make futher research and feed back from some other people too.
Secondly it might just be that all he needed to do was to complete KYC registration to that he can withdraw his win fund, but closing the account isn’t might seem to be a good idea if he’s not satisfied with their service.

[ruykeri]

I would definitely close the account and even discourage anyone I know from betting on this casino site. Because so far, that person has not been blocked his account by site , but after winning a large amount, when they blocked the account and then he had to be harassed to withdraw that money. This really proves that betting on that casino is not safe. And so before spending money on any betting site, you should definitely check the reputation of that betting site well, check the reviews and popularity and start betting. Because at this time, many scam gambling sites are seen in which this same type of problem is seen, where if you win a large amount, it creates various types of problems including account restriction.

Haha! Funny but true. They always want you to lose so that they can make more money. When you keep winning, you deprive them of there gains and thats not why they started in the first place. They want you to keep loosing  so that they can grow financially, of course, it's business.

If I were your friend of colleague, I would just do the same. I would close the acount because it's no longer safe anymore with them. Would they have probed his account is he was loosing? All those that are also betting with a high stake and loosing, did they block the account and asked them to stop betting and loosing such money? The owner(s) of that betting site is just too greedy and doesn't deserve his money anymore. He should look for some other company witt a better reputation.

Nobody likes this kind of hassle... especially when we hit a decent winning streak! It's a tricky answer... after passing "deep" verification, you will be safe to play on that site. Maybe the casino mixed things up, and things got confused... not everything is dark & evil. But if something feels wrong, the best thing to do is take your money & run.

I don't know what I would do... if it's a lucky place, maybe I would give it another try or two. But if I got too annoyed by their actions, I could easily turn my back on them. So I guess it's all about how it hits us, and how that makes us feel in that moment...
