Case summary

7 months ago

The player from Spain had reported an issue regarding a halted roulette game. After the player's bet on red had won, the game had been paused, a new dealer had intervened and initiated another spin which the player lost. The casino's explanation had been that the initial spin was corrected, but the player argued that it should have been cancelled and the bet refunded. The player had provided communication with the casino, stating that they believed the round should have been cancelled and the bet returned, based on their understanding of the game rules. After reviewing the evidence provided by the casino and the game rules, the Complaints Team had concluded that the casino had acted in accordance with the game rules, and the complaint was rejected.

I made a bet of $20,000 on red, and the ball landed on 7 red! However, the game was halted after the spin. A new dealer arrived, placed the ball in the previous number, and initiated another spin. The result was 6 black and I lost my bet. Support explained that during the initial spin, the ball had spun less than three times, so the game was halted and the dealer corrected the error with a new spin. However, in such instances, the spin should be invalidated! How can one correct a spin? The ball had landed in a number slot! If the ball spins less than three times, then the spin should be cancelled, and bets should be refunded. Subsequently, new bets should be made, and a new spin should be undertaken. It seems to me that if a spin is skewed, the bets have been made and spins can then be cancelled until the desired number comes up. The casino's support team justified their decision by stating that the spin wasn't cancelled, but paused, and the dealer "fixed" the spin. Even if the dealer was correcting the spin, he should have initiated the spin on the last number and not the preceding one. If a spin is made on the previous number, then it's considered a cancellation! And how can one even correct a spin in the first place?

I studied the rules on the platform! There is no description anywhere on the platform of exactly how many revolutions the ball should make! Therefore, according to the rules of the platform, I think that I should be paid the winnings. If you take into account the real rules of the game, then - when the ball turns less than three times around the wheel, the spin is canceled - the ball returns to the previous number - and the bets are returned! there is no such thing as fixing a spin - tweaking it or something ////

I sent the letters to you by email, and I’m also posting the casino’s response here. To my question about the error they sent this response:

Hello *****,

Grateful for your patience.

Per our Game Provider, they checked the video replay and saw that the dealer made only 1 revolution. The dealer called a manager, and the manager let her make another spin. (The round was a little paused due to this step.) The procedure was correct, and we confirmed the round was not canceled. The winning number matches the round details.

If you have any other concerns please don't hesitate to contact us. Have a nice day!


Kind Regards,

Xianna

Customer Experience Team



I sent a reply to this letter:

No, you're wrong! If the ball spins less than three times, the round is canceled and bets are returned. I've been playing for a long time and know the rules. I play with you because I trust your casino and I know that you can play for large sums and everything will be fair! Now, according to the rules, you should also have canceled my bet because the spin was cancelled. You understand that an honest decision is to return the bet... let's find a compromise.



to which they replied:

Hello *****,

Thank you for reaching out!

As stated in our previous email, we investigated your case thoroughly and we confirm that the procedure was correct.

The round was not canceled and the winning number matches the round details.

Our casino team went through the video recording of the said round and the manager made another spin happen for you.

This is our final decision and there will be no further communication regarding this matter.

Thank you for your time and understanding!

Kind Regards,

Rina

Customer Experience Team


after that I sent another letter with my arguments:

if the spin was corrected then the dealer should have launched the ball from the last number! maybe this is a fix! but the dealer launched the ball from the previous number! it's cancelled! If the spin is cancelled, bets are returned! please study my question again and return my bid!



after that there were no answers


I also sent a complaint to Curaçao eGaming



The behavior of the casino team is simply fraudulent, if necessary they make the wrong spin, if necessary they cancel it, make a repeat spin! and decide what is most profitable for them! In all casinos, in case of a short spin, bets are always returned! If they have their own rules, this should be stated on the platform! but on the platform there is not a word at all how many times the ball must make revolutions and according to the rules of their own platform they must pay me the winnings! Therefore, I ask you to follow the rules and make me a payment!

Hello Casino Guru team,


The customer contacted our Support about a game round on the Bombay Live Roulette 2 game, which was deemed invalid. The ball made only 1 revolution, which means that the ball landed too early. The dealer called a manager, and the manager let her make another spin. As per the game rules:


If there is an error in the game, system or game procedure, the game round will be temporarily paused while the game presenter notifies the service manager. All players will be notified via a pop-up message, that Manager has been called. If the manager can immediately resolve the error, the game round will continue as normal. If immediate resolution is not possible, the game round will be canceled (within a few hours), and initial bets will be refunded to all players who participated in the game round


The round was paused due to this step and it was the correct procedure, and we confirmed the round was not canceled. This round was checked and validated by our game provider Bombay Live and the customer was informed accordingly. The winning number matched the round details and unfortunately, it was not in the customer's favor in this case. 


Please let us know if you need any additional information.


Kind Regards,

Bitcasino Team

Hello miausann,


I have reviewed the evidence provided by the casino, and as frustrating as it might be, it seems that they have acted in accordance with the rules. While I appreciate that in land based casinos such a situation may call for bets to be returned, it is apparent that online live casinos generally allow for the spin to be remade from the previous number if possible, as if the miss spin hadn't taken place, and for the bets to remain as placed.


Can I ask why you believe the spin should have been made from the last number (the number that was the result of the miss spin)?


Kind regards,

Adam

I think we should act according to the rules! right? Where is it written that the ball must make 3 turns? I studied the rules on the platform! There is no description anywhere of exactly how many revolutions the ball should make! Therefore, according to the rules of the platform, I think that I should be paid the winnings. there was a spin and there was a winning number - make a payout! or write in the rules that the ball must make at least three revolutions of the wheel, if it makes less than 3 revolutions, then the ball is restarted and the bets remain on the tables! - one sentence! and no questions! Until this is written according to the rules on their platform, I must receive a payment! If I don’t get paid, then they are breaking their own rules! and act according to a vague formulation according to which it is fashionable to cancel anything! According to their wording, the manager decides everything - if the manager decides that there was a mistake, then he does what he wants! The casino must make a payout and add rules!

Hello miausann,


I have checked the rules myself and found the following:

Also, you mentioned in a previous response to the casino "No, you're wrong! If the ball spins less than three times, the round is canceled and bets are returned. I've been playing for a long time and know the rules."


This suggests that you were aware that if the ball makes only one revolution it would be considered invalid, could you clarify this please?


Kind regards,

Adam

You are absolutely right! And the rules are right too! If a round is considered invalid, what happens to the bets? ))) right! Bets are cancelled!! Round canceled = bets cancelled! Or if the round is invalid, the casino is entitled to your money? Has the right to place repeated bets?? No!! And the casino says that the round must be fixed! They keep the money! And they bid for me! This is my money and I manage it! I want to put it or not! And it looks like you brought money to the hippodrome and the owner of the hippodrome, after the horse you bet on won, took it and changed your bet to another horse! Because those are the rules! Doesn't this seem strange to you?



But! Please show me the link where these rules are written? At the time of my bet they were not on the platform! The casino refers to the rules and does not pay me! The game must take place according to the rules of the platform! According to the rules, I won!



but if you study the matter and the correspondence! I didn’t initially ask for payment of my winnings! I asked for a refund! Because as you write correctly, I have been playing for a long time and I know the rules - if a short spin occurs, it is canceled and the bets are returned! New spin - new bets!


I don’t understand why you are on the side of the casino and are trying to find a reason not to pay me?

Hello miausann,


Please understand that I am not taking sides, I am merely explaining the situation as I see it according to the evidence provided. If it is a standard procedure in online casinos that a mis-spin can be corrected/re-spun in this manner, and you were aware that the spin was not valid due to only making one revolution before coming to rest on a number, then unfortunately there isn't much we can do.


I am unable to provide a link to the rules, but you can find them within the game when logged into your account.


You have stated that the bet should be invalidated and returned on such occasion, but this is the main factor here because it does not seem to be the usual practice in online live roulette games.

We are going to discuss this case further internally, and I will post again shortly with our conclusions.


Kind regards,

Adam

Why can't you provide a link to the rules? Give me a screenshot where you can see that these are the rules of bitcasino.com, they don’t have this in their rules!


After there was a short spin, I was waiting for the casino to cancel the spin and return my bet, this did not happen and the casino took my money! after the casino took my money, I went to read the rules! according to the rules on the platform and the provider there was no information about the number of revolutions of the ball!



Do you still think that the casino did the right thing?! Taking players' money, taking advantage of the lack of rules and making up rules on the fly? Put yourself in my place?! You won and the casino canceled your bet based on the fact that they themselves decide when they want to measure the spin

This is a shame for the casino! According to the platform rules, I won! Pay out your winnings and don't embarrass yourself! They sold their reputation for 20 thousand dollars! Now everyone will know that if the issue amount is more than $20,000, they may not pay out the winnings!!! Looks like petty scammers!

Also a big disappointment in your platform? What is her role? Just an advertising platform for a casino!? Where do you promote casinos for money and justify their actions?


The situation is simple according to the rules of the casino bitcasino.com I won! The casino, breaking its own rules, does not pay me! And you just cover them!


The solution is simple - the casino pays me the winnings according to its own rules! After that, he makes adjustments to the rules using his own rules!

Hello miausann,


Please be aware that the picture of the rule above is a screenshot of what was found upon checking the rules in the roulette game, here is a wider angle:

I have asked the casino to clarify some more details for me, and will post a further response shortly.

Super! So the casino has updated the rules! The first step has been taken, well done! That is, if the casino updated the rule, they will a priori admit their mistake! And they must make a payment!! Or why change the rules if they are already right???


Another proof that this was not in the rules is that the casino did not initially refer to this section of the rules!!!


Let's check with the casino when they made this amendment? And when will they apologize, say thank you, and pay me?

Dear miausann,


After further review of the evidence presented by both parties, I must inform you that we are unable to assist you any further with this case.


I appreciate that in many land-based casinos, it might be the case that bets are canceled and returned to the player in such a situation. However, it is not the usual procedure in live online games, and on this occasion it seems that the casino has acted in accordance with the terms and conditions and the rules of the game.


There can be no question that the round was a "no-spin" situation, you yourself stated that there must be a certain number of revolutions for the round to be considered valid. I appreciate that you have stated this wasn't present in the rules of the game, but when I checked I found it to be stated there. I have also clarified with the casino that the result of the round was never even registered on the board, and so was considered invalid from the moment the ball came to a rest.


Please understand we can only make a decision based on the evidence at hand, and consequently the complaint will now be rejected.


I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.


Kind regards,

Adam
