But no, the rules are not good enough.

The irregular play rules are so poorly defined they are not enforcable. At some point one will often have to bet a large part of your existing bankroll and iolate rule 12. In fact, if he didn't, there is so little left that you grind out at the minimun and iolate rule 13.

If they want to limit flux, write the rule so it is clear and understandable. The max bet till wagering requirements are met is .... whatever it is. That's for rule 12.

You can't have the second rule. You can't say betting the minimum or any particular amount is irregular betting. You are just insisting on irresponsible gaming at this point.

The real answer is don't book the bet if you don't want to pay it. If we want to be strick about it, the casino waived the rules when they accepted the wager. If we don't want to be strick about it, then at least insist that they not trap the player with rules that are not clear or with rules that disallows flat betting the minimum. The point about this promoting irresponsible gambling is well taken.

In this case, the casino is flat our wrong. They should not be keeping the winnings. Here is the test - if the player had lost, would they come back and say, "Sorry, that bet was contrary to our rules. We are oiding the bet. You have to now wager it properly." No. They would keep the money. That's how you know this isn't a oid bet. Whenever it only works against the player, somethings wrong.

Here is another way you know its wrong. Remember when the casinos tried to oid autoplay as bonus abuse? We all agreed that you can't offer autoplay and them make it bonus abuse. So tell me, how do I use autoplay without iolating rule 13?

If casinos don't want to offer clear bonus terms, don't offer the bonus. If they don't want to pay the bet, don't accept the bet. If they insist they have to oid a bet, oid all of them win or lose. If there is a dispute, keeping selective winnings is always suspect and eCOGRA should be concerned. If they are not, players should be concerned. Brick and mortar casinos have promotions too; but they don't find reasons to keep your winnings.

imho,
Stanford.
