The concept of "fair gambling" feels like an intentional oxymoron. Platforms claim transparency, but the underlying mechanics always favor the house. It's a sophisticated psychological dance between player hope and mathematical probability.

As a player, I've been going through a very frustrating situation with a well-known game provider (Pragmatic Play), in which I've gathered a considerable amount of evidence pointing to highly irregular behavior in a live roulette game. However, despite having the evidence in hand—videos, repeated patterns, evasive answers—I've realized something more serious: there's a huge regulatory loophole.


Authorities pass the buck, forums push the strings into hidden categories, and platforms that should protect players are also caught in the crossfire of commercial interests. No one wants to upset the big providers.

This makes me wonder: what good is a "fair play" code if, when a serious irregularity actually occurs, no one takes concrete action? I'd love to believe in this mission of fair and responsible gaming, but for now, what I've experienced shows me that the system is designed to protect operators more than players.

I hope this message doesn't get deleted. I just want it to be known that there are players who have tried to follow the rules, provide evidence, and communicate respectfully… and yet we are completely ignored, simply because we are not a company.

Thanks if anyone manages to read this to the end.

Players always play knowing the house has the advantage. The frustrating thing is when you see something wrong and document it for a couple of months, follow all the protocols, and no one takes you seriously or takes action! Of course, they have to protect their B2B licenses. Regulators protect licenses, not players.

The theory and concept are all right.

Mathematical casino advantage

it's completely legal, it's known for individual games,

and is not dishonest.

But, among the "problematic topics" the article does not name the main ones,

After all, online casinos are dangerous because they can:

- steal a player's deposit when replenishing an account (money,

allegedly, they did not arrive),

- steal the player's money from the account in different ways

ways. For example, by deliberately generating dishonest

results against his bets. Or just block

account and confiscate the money;

- steal a player's money when trying to withdraw it.

All this can happen at any time and at any time.

online casino. Even after a successful game check

for small money, successful verification and withdrawal of winnings.

I agree here, the only factors which can be deemed more or less fair are how fast KYC and payments happen and does the casino do responsible gambling to a degree with self exclusion options.


The games all have a house edge by design, else every casino would go bankrupt in very little time. The casinos have a small edge, you can win, but generally, the longer you play, the more it might cost you.


There was a casino once in the 80s , which had a game with 100.3% RTP in Vegas and it went bankrupt very quickly, before they realized, the game had pharao in the name, I forgot.


Nice post , have an upvote.

I couldn't agree with you more, when the casino system is questioned, which basically feeds everything around it, the idea always arises that they are regulated, that they have no need to cheat, but the fact is that we are not fools (the players), I take your example of roulette, one of these days I played roulette without money and only on red and black to do an experiment, and here on this site that supposedly only aims to experiment, and it never happened to me to lose 7 consecutive times as it happened when I did it for money with considerable bets! In European roulette with a zero, which was the case, the chances of this happening are 1.35%, or the chances of it not happening are the reverse 98.65%, but the fact is that it happens and a lot!!! Of course it's frustrating when you lose, but it's even more frustrating to feel that you've lost when all the odds are that you won't (so many times at least!). It's strange, to say the least, when you bet a large amount of money on a slot to get a bonus and suddenly at that very moment the game crashes and in a split second, which isn't even recorded in your history, the game comes back and tells you that you've won a pittance! When you buy something that's regulated, aren't you supposed to at least see what you're buying??? Why is it that in an online casino we simply have to believe that even though we haven't seen the moves, everything is fine and that in a fraction of a second (not even a second) there were 7 bonus moves that could have been 21 and gave us that result! Forgive me, but what kind of justice is this? Thank you

Thanks for your message🫶🏼

Since you mention roulette, I invite you to check out a thread I've opened on this topic. So you can discover what's happening at one of the roulette tables of the world's largest provider (Pragmatic Play). If this happens at one of their roulette tables, or at all of them, as they themselves have generalized, imagine what happens at their slots or other games. When you discover something like this and report it, you immediately realize there's no regulation whatsoever. Regulators only protect their B2B licenses, and players just have bad luck. You enter a bureaucratic process where everyone knows what they're holding, but no one dares to act because they know they might get a standing ovation. So, my friend, you didn't have bad luck or play against the statistics, but rather you fell into the trap of the most lucrative business in the world. Regards.

Yes, players are aware of the house advantage, but there is the volatility part, this is what gives us punters a chance once in a while.


It's easy, Evo gaming and MGA approved games providers have the governments backing and approval, though I doubt the Maltese bodies have even one person who understands the mathematics, but their approved providers do not have scandals.

Very different for the so called "provable fair" games by Stake and such, you have to be pretty dumb to believe that claim. It took a couple years until the people stopped believing the claim, but the damage is done. Never trust a self developed game, it beggars belief how anyone could be so stupid and believe such claims, yet here we are, some influencers like Drake tell it to the people on social media, profit from it and the viewers buy it hook, line and sinker. Stake and BCgame have not had a single job posting in months, but nobody goes as far and check such things.

Hello! I was playing on rioace and won close to 60,000 euros. At first the vip manager answered then I told her that I wanted to make a big withdrawal and not 3000 per month when the limit was 1800 per day at the level I was at, then she didn't answer my emails for 1 week, then she sent another one and lied to me, that she sent it to me and I didn't see it, a lie of course, as soon as I entered to play since I had money but couldn't withdraw it with the scammers, it got stuck the money was lost, I have a screen shot of everything, and then Miss Liana aaaaaaaaassed and even with a tone, well I want the money when I asked them for it, they are clearly scammers, unless the employees steal it there is no other way to explain why they behave like this. Who controls them? Why do they exist?

The withdrawal of balances with limits also came as a surprise to me, until I won a substantial amount I never thought that it wouldn't be possible to withdraw all the money we won as it would be in a normal casino!!! The casino bosses know very well that with the limits they themselves impose and which hardly anyone remembers to read in the casino conditions until they happen to win some and then they come across these withdrawal restrictions, not to mention some ridiculous checks, that the time the money is there will always be for those who have it a chance to play more, and when that happens there comes the opportunity for the casino itself to take it and not have to pay anything! So what's the justice of that!!! Is that even legal? If you go to a physical casino, don't you leave with what you won that night? Who told these gentlemen that they can keep your winnings for weeks or until you're tempted to win some more, when bad luck always knocks on your door and you end up losing what's there? Isn't that a bit too convenient? How many players have had that happen to them? I have!!!!

Hello, not sure which site you are talking about, but We’re sorry to hear about it, and I wanted you to know that for any withdrawal or account-related issues, please contact our Complaints Team directly via this link:

It’s unfortunately not standard in online casinos to withdraw large winnings all at once,and yes, that’s a shame. However, honest casinos list their withdrawal limits in their terms, and we have them summarized in our reviews. Checking these in advance can help avoid casinos with limits that are too low.

So this Golden Egypt game that I believed to be real, is just a sampler. In other words when it shows my purchases of Amazon and Google play are fake. Talk about misleading Bullshit
