Uncertain case, passive regulator

UNRESOLVED

Case summary

9 months ago

The player from Japan had won a tournament but didn't receive any prize. They claimed that the terms and conditions had been changed during the competition, and despite complying with these changes, the casino had not transferred the winnings based on the amended rules. The player had provided evidence of a 1000x multiplier they had achieved in a tournament, which they believed should have resulted in a prize. The casino had offered 25 free spins as compensation for an erroneous email sent to the player, but the player insisted on a cash prize as per the tournament's terms. After extensive communication and review of the betting history provided by the casino, it was not clear if the player should have placed higher in the tournament. The case had been closed as 'unresolved - uncertain case' due to a lack of conclusive evidence from both the player and the casino.

I participated in a tournament at this casino and came out on top but did not win any money.


On two of those occasions, I have confirmed in advance that there are no minimum bets or excluded games.


The rules were changed in the middle of the tournament and I believe the casino forgot to update their terms and conditions.


The casino also participated in the last round of the tournament according to the changed rules,

The casino has not transferred the prize money, even though we received an email from the casino informing us that we had won a prize.



I have checked and found that a similar complaint has been submitted.

Dear andandjonnyx,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with LuckyBlock Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can better understand the situation. 

  • Did you receive any justification from the casino regarding your winnings not being paid?
  • Has the casino cited any rules of the tournament being broken?
  • Could you please specify which casino tournament you participated in?

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

I attended the

tournament held on September 30.

Tournament held on October 7

The tournament held on October 21.


As others have complained about September 30 and October 7 of these,

I confirm that the casino forgot to update their terms and conditions regarding minimum wagers and excluded games.

(At least at the time I entered the tournament on the 7th, no minimum wager or other rules were added. Others have screenshots to prove it)



For the October 21 tournament, the minimum wager and other rules were followed, and the casino sent me an email with the winning prize, but the prize money has not been transferred.


Although my name was not on the leaderboard, my game history showed that I had originally won a prize.

(which was a higher multiplier than the winners)

file


I have contacted the casino several times regarding non-payment of my winnings, but the casino continues to ignore me.


I just recently noticed that another player was being accused of violating the rules,

and I learned that the casino had admitted that they had forgotten to add the Terms and Conditions and had offered compensation.

I filed a complaint when I realized that the situation was the same as mine.

The user did not win a prize as the user did not finish as a listed winner for the specific promotion - all winners were credited as per the outlined winners list.

the multiplier I got was higher than the winner's multiplier.

But I was not on the list of winners.

The reason was that the casino had changed the tournament rules internally but forgot to inform the players about it.


I know that the casino has acknowledged its blunder and compensated other players.

Similarly, please investigate my actual ranking and compensate me.


I also have game history as evidence for the October 21 tournament.

I had won 1000x, which was higher than the multiplier for the users on the list of winners.

This is based on the updated Terms of Use.

Due to a glitch on the casino's site, it is technically impossible to check all game histories, but if you check, you will see that I also won multipliers in the other two tournaments.

This is a system problem.


I played the slot legacy of dead for $0.01 for the Sept 30 and Oct 7 tournaments.

Until then, there had always been no restrictions such as minimum stakes or exclusion games.

But the expectation is that the casino had already set the minimum bet internally to $0.1

That is why my record did not reflect it.


However, the casino forgot to notify the player when they changed the minimum bet.

Minimum wagering and excluded games were added to the Terms of Service on October 14.

(Evidence was provided by another user in a screenshot during a complaint)

In another person's complaint, that was granted and the exclusion from record was voided.

Therefore, the casino needs to investigate all my play at the time and produce the actual record.


I confirm that the record for the October 21 tournament was several hundred times lower than my record for the person receiving the prize money.

Please publish the leaderboard at that time.

The casino did change the rules internally in early October, though,

but did not notify users of the change until mid-October.

Therefore, as of September 30 and October 7, users were unaware that their wagers had changed.

This is evident in nemtree's complaint.

Screenshots of the evidence were also submitted.


The casino has already paid Mr. Nemtree a settlement in recognition of this oversight.

Are you now denying this?

The last tournament I participated in should be considered separately because the situation is different from the others.


We are aware that the terms and conditions have changed for the last tournament we participated in, and we participated accordingly.

However, I was not listed, even though the 1000x I won was higher than the user's multiplier shown on the leaderboard.

Hi CG team,


The list sent to you were based on all rewarded winners - the change of rules happened at exactly 2nd October. Based on those results, including the updated ts and cs, the user did not form part of the winners list.


The terms and conditions were indeed changed during a ongoing tournament, the user however, as mentioned above, did not form part of the winners list - including the back up information I provided to you.


The user therefore is not entitled to any prize whatsoever, as he did not form part of the winners list - despite the rule changes.

First, the first tournaments took place on September 30 and October 1.

At this point, the Terms of Service were not updated.

Therefore, the fact that my play is not reflected is a glitch. (I had earned several thousand times more multiplier, and was either #1 or #2 on the leaderboard at the time)

file


Second, as nemtree also complained, the Terms of Service were not actually updated on October 2.

There is a screenshot of proof of this, and I am sure that casino admits fault there as well.

Naturally, I have also confirmed with my own eyes that the Terms of Use have not been updated as of October 7, including the English version.

Why deny it now?


Furthermore, the last tournament I participated in had a proper record of my play, which confirmed that it was higher than the leaderboard record.

file


I have been asking here all along why there is a discrepancy between the actual ranking list and my records.

As far as I can tell, there was a glitch in your system that prevented my play from being reflected.



Dear Casino Guru

Regardless of the change in the Terms of Service, it is reasonable to infer that a glitch in the tournament system has occurred, as all three of my plays are not reflected.


It would be necessary to check the leaderboard and my entire play history at the time to determine my exact ranking.


Did you receive that data from the casino?

Due to a glitch in the casino's site, players cannot see all of their game history, but the casino should have that data and we can find it by having them submit it.

Dear LuckyBlock Casino,


We find it highly unfair for the rules of the tournament to have been changed while it is ongoing. Were players even notified of the changes? Would the player have ranked in the tournament had the rules not been changed?

As the player mentioned, it seems that it will be best to review the entire gameplay of the player for the tournaments mentioned, can this be provided please?

If the casino is willing to waive further investigation and pay a settlement as they did with Mr. nemtree, that is fine. Neither Adam nor I want to continue this same exchange any longer.

It is extremely likely that the reason it is not ranked is due to a glitch there.

Because regardless of the rule changes, all my play is not reflected.


I have submitted my game history for the last tournament on numerous occasions and it turns out that I have a higher score than the ranked players, but why does the casino refuse to explain this?


Can't you see that the casino guru has instructed submit my game history to confirm this?


Dear Casino Guru

I don't want to go through the same exchange again.

If the casino is any more uncooperative in the investigation,

Please refer to Mr. nemtree's complaint and impose a compensation of 3000€ on the casino.

Dear LuckyBlock Casino,


You have mentioned that you have supplied the list of winners of the tournaments, but that isn't sufficient in supporting that the player's wagers were not enough to place in the tournament. It is also unclear if the rules being changed had any effect on the outcome of the tournament regarding the player. We need to see evidence of the player's bet amounts and progress (for example multipliers earned) throughout the tournament.


As the casino is more likely to have records of this than the player, the easiest way to resolve this situation is for the casino to provide the gameplay history in order for us to compare their progress with that of the winners on the list. It can be sent to my email (adam.m@casino.guru) and will remain confidential.


Kind regards,

Adam

The first (9.30 and 10.1) and second tournaments (10.7 and 10.8) have probably won multipliers of thousands of times in the $0.01 "legacy of dead" tournaments.

I can see some of them from my account, but due to a glitch on the casino site I can only view the latest few hundred.

When I press the more button to check old history, it stops responding halfway through.

As for the last tournament, the $0.1 "9coins 1000edition" achieved a 1000x multiplier.

I can also check this from my account.

Dear andandjonnyx,

 

I have received your betting history from 30/09/2023 up to 8/10/2023. Upon review of all winning bets, I was unable to find a multiplier greater than x193, which would not be enough to place you in the rankings for any of the tournaments for this time period.


Dear LuckyBlock Casino,


Regarding the most recent tournament mentioned by the player (21/10/2023 - 22/10/2023), although we haven't seen the betting history for that period it does appear from the player's screenshot that they have earned a 1000x multiplier, which would have gained them a position in the tournament according to the winners list you provided.


Can you please clarify this information?

If you look closely at the screenshot, you can see that the bets follow the new rules.

Can you explain why it was not reflected?


Looking at the leaderboard, though, it should award prizes, not free spins.


Also, why do you allow only a partial view of the game history on the casino site?

If they refuse to answer any more questions, we will ask the licensee or game provider to investigate their history.


Dear Casino Guru


As I have mentioned several times, this casino has a fatal flaw in that it only saves a portion of your history.

Therefore, it is questionable whether the history that the casino guru claims to have verified is accurate.

If true, the games played should be close to 20,000 rounds.

I would like to know what kind of data it is.

However, according to the documentation provided, the 1000x is ranked as it should be, and moreover, the product should be prize money, not free spins.

I and casino guru have been asking you why it is not ranked.

Don't you understand?


Dear Casino Guru


What kind of game history data do you have?

This casino's statements have always been puzzling and the credibility of the data you submitted is shaky.


The basic premise is that I got thousands of times more and didn't rank, so I wondered and checked with the casino, leading to a complaint.

In fact, one of the results was that the 1,000x was not reflected.


If the data is CSV or other data, it is not surprising that the history of high payouts has been erased.

If it were in a form that showed pre- and post-game balances, I would be able to notice it.

(Since we have played over 20,000 games, even $0.01 would be a significant amount less without the high payout)


The best way is to check with the game provider, playngo.

I would like to ask you once more to clarify what has happened with the tournament ranking for the tournament which occurred on 21 - 22 October. You have provided us with a winner's list for this tournament (without a prize list), but not the players' betting history for this date. According to the screenshot provided by the player, they had a 1000x multiplier during this period, which should have earned them a place.

Dear andandjonnyx,

 

The casino has now clarified that the prize for placing outside of the top 10 for the tournament on the weekend of 21st October was indeed an amount of free spins, as has been offered in a previous post. This seems to be validated by the similar prize lists we received for previous tournaments. With the multiplier of 1000x, you would have finished in 16th place.


You have repeatedly mentioned another player's complaint, and I think it is valid to mention that the circumstances with that player were a little different from those of this case.


You have not been disqualified from the tournaments for making bets that are lower than those in the (since amended) terms. It is being stated that due to the multipliers earned, regardless of the size of the bets, you have not succeeded in placing in these tournaments.


I appreciate that there has been a lot of miscommunication from the casino, and as we will have to make a decision based primarily on the gameplay/betting history, I have also asked the casino to provide you with this data to review yourself.


We will await their response before proceeding any further.


Kind regards,

No, it was not 16th place.

I have also checked the leaderboard for the tournament on the 21st and confirmed that the 1000x commodity was 150 euros at that time.

It was 8th on the leaderboard that I checked.

I am submitting this complaint because I was indeed ranked 8th on the leaderboard in the first place, but Prize money has not been transferred.



The casino has already closed this tournament and is unable to provide proper records.


Dear Casino Guru


The casino has already made information such as leaderboards and game history unavailable from their site.

Do you have any evidence to say that the evidence provided by the casino is not fabricated?


If this was my mistake about one of the three tournaments, it would make sense.


But it is clearly unnatural that I was mistaken in all three out of three tournaments. This is because I actually played the game and checked the leaderboard.


Have you received a screenshot of the actual leaderboard as it appears in the casino for the tournament on the 21st? If so, please paste it here.

If you received the leaderboards in another medium, such as CSV, then that is not proof.

This is the leaderboard that was posted on the casino's website at the time.

But because I did check the leaderboard, I am sending an email to the casino.

This is a kind of proof.


I have not seen the leaderboard submitted by the casino here, but what is it like?


Is this the leaderboard properly displayed on the site?

This is the result of the 30thtournament.

The size of the participants did not change much, and the results of the 22th tournament were much the same as this one.

To add, the tournament on the 22nd had fewer participants because the rules had been changed and did not reflect bets of less than $0.1.

Dear anandjohnnyx,


We have discussed this case at length internally, and I will now provide our conclusions.


There is a distinct lack of evidence from your side to support that you have earned the multipliers you have stated and therefore should have ranked in the tournaments held on September 30th and October 7th. However, the evidence provided by the casino to the contrary also remains questionable.


We can see that you have earned the 1000x multiplier in the tournament held on 21st October, but again it is unclear if you should have placed higher than 16th place, for which it does appear that the prize would be the free spins mentioned by the casino.


Consequently, due to a lack of conclusive evidence from both parties, we will now close this case as 'unresolved - uncertain case'.


I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. If you would like to pursue the matter further, it is possible to contact the licensing authority of the casino - Curacao Interactive Licensing - by email (info@curacaolicensing.com).


Kind regards,

Adam
