Case summary

The player from Slovenia won 3000 USD while playing blackjack, but after completing ID and proof of address verification, his account was blocked without explanation. The casino closed his account and confiscated his winnings, alleging he had used card counting, which violated their terms and conditions. Despite the player disputing this claim and requesting clarification, the casino maintained their position and offered only to return his initial deposit. The complaint was closed as unresolved in the player's favor, negatively impacting the casino's rating, and the player was advised to contact the Curaçao Gaming Authority for further assistance.

Hello Alecsz,

We would like to update you that due to Veronika, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Veronika has an in-depth understanding of your situation and maintains direct communication with the casino, we find this extension justified. Your patience is sincerely appreciated, and I assure you that Veronika will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru

Hello.


We are disappointed that, despite the clear confirmation from the game provider that the player was engaging in card counting, this has not been considered sufficient grounds to uphold our original decision.


All parties involved have acknowledged that the player was using a card-counting strategy. The fact that no external software or devices were used does not change the core issue: the provider has identified the behaviour as an attempt to gain an unfair advantage, which is explicitly against our terms and conditions. Our rules exist to protect the integrity of the games and to ensure a fair environment for all players.

WSM Casino is a licensed and legitimate operation that treats every complaint seriously. We carry out thorough internal reviews and rely on official reports from our game providers before making any final decision. Our intention is always to resolve genuine disputes in a fair, transparent, and reasonable manner.


However, we cannot allow complaint platforms to be used as leverage by players attempting to justify behaviour that breaches our rules. These platforms are intended to help resolve legitimate issues, not to pressure operators into paying out cases involving confirmed advantage play.


If we were to pay out winnings in a case where prohibited behaviour has been identified, it would set a dangerous precedent. It would effectively signal that such strategies can be rewarded if enough external pressure is applied, which would create ongoing issues for both our operation and the wider ecosystem.


As a gesture of goodwill, we have already offered to return the player’s initial deposit, despite the breach. This reflects our commitment to fairness, but we will not be strong-armed into paying out winnings in cases involving confirmed rule violations or bad-faith claims.

We remain committed to fair play, transparency, and the proper handling of all legitimate player concerns, and we will continue to act in accordance with our terms, our providers’ findings, and the integrity of the platform.

Card counting? Are u drunk? Wait so if i win i get my initial deposit and when i lose i lose my money😭. Nice scam folks, and btw u just took my money and said nothing, no initial deposit no reason nothing. So i think the card counting thing is just a made up story to justify stealing peoples money.

And btw everything i wrote is a certified fax and not bullshit or som. imaginary storys.

You guys are running an active scam and u should be punished and arrested.

Dear Alecsz,

I would like to inform you that we were unfortunately unable to persuade the casino to pay the disputed winnings. As a result, we will close the complaint in your favor as unresolved – against the Fair Gambling Codex. This outcome will negatively affect the casino’s Safety Index on our website.

I understand that this is not a satisfactory resolution to your issue. However, the decrease in the casino’s rating caused by unresolved complaints may encourage them to reconsider their approach in the future. If the casino decides to react or reopen the discussion, we will reopen the complaint and notify you by email.

In the meantime, I recommend contacting the Curaçao Gaming Authority at complaints@cga.cw and submitting a complaint directly to them. The regulator has additional tools and authority to assist players in such situations.

Please let me know if you would like help with submitting the complaint, or feel free to inform me about their response if you decide to contact them yourself (stefan.m@casino.guru).

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

Best regards,

Stefan
