oww didnt know dat. ill dig the emails out tonight

weighting is what did me. claimed a bonus in march and played blackjack because thats what i play, didnt clock that its 10% toward the wagering. so my 10x was actually 100x six hundred quid of turnover later im looking at the bar going up in ten pence increments and i genuinely thought it was...

so what happens to wh after then, does it become an american company or wha.. been with them eleven years and i don't fancy the whole thing getting sold on again in two years to someone else

learned more about US gambling law in one afternoon than i ever expected to know :LOL: @Greenpickle @Timmy noted and will pass that on. i fear hes exactly the type to fall for it...

cheers lads pretty useful. gonna tell my cousin that all big sites were gone from louisiana ages ago, the august just killed the last holdouts, his stuck balance on the small site is probably gone for good with no recourse, and if hes thinking of going offshore crypto to keep playing hes jumping...

sure that makes a lot more sense of it. its not really about protecting players its about protecting the existing casinos from a cheaper online competitor. 50y racketeering thing suddenly looks less like consumer protection and more like clearing the field

wellp thats basically what happened to my cousin huh.. he had a small balance there, saw the news, went to redeem and the window had already closed. gone. he got most of his money off the main one he used but that one just stuck

50y hard labour for running a casino app is genuinely insane to me as a brit. we fine operators here, we dont threaten to put them in prison for half a century. is that normal in the states?

or the confirmation loop which drives me crazey. you accept the new odds, look up half a second later and theyve changed AGAIN, you accept again, changed again, accept again. by the time the bet actually goes through youve confirmed it four times and completely lost track of whether you still...

yeah merchant don't give up even if you partially lost, most people would have played it back or given up already

€2m?? bet well see sites just geo-block netherlands now

so true Alex indeed skin betting sites are insane. csgolounge used to be massive before valve shut it dwn but loads of new ones popped up basically gambling with skins instead of money so they claim its not "real" gambling

just got email from another site saying they're ceasing uk operations end of month. thats 4 sites gone from my regular rotation since april. the big operators must be loving this. less competition means they can cut bonuses and tighten odds without losing customers

the new statutory levy kicked in april and its already killing smaller operators. £100mil total split between all uk licensed sites based on their revenue. heard few mid-tier sites already shut down uk operations cos they cant afford it. one site i used regularly sent email saying they're moving...

yep same issues here mostly on their speed blackjack tables. seems like they're overloaded with players and servers cant handle it tried raising it with support at different casinos but they all blame "your internet connection" even when everything else works fine :confused:

@paul7388 exactly. makes you wonder if its worth investing in these emerging markets when the political risk is so high brazil looked like sure thing 6 months ago now sounds like regulatory nightmare
