The Curacao Gaming Control Board (GCB) states on its website that they been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector on behalf of the Minister of Finance since March 2020!

On December 7, 2023, 45 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, I informed (with proof) the GCB about Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system and asked them to intervene.

6 months later and 51 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they answered the following:

Quote
Dear Sir / Madam,

Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, the Curaçao Gaming Control Board (GCB) is currently not able to handle your request.

The government of Curaçao is actively in the process of modernizing our gambling legislation and setting up our online gaming policies and procedures.

We expect to be of more help as soon as the new legislation enters into force, which we expect to be the case in the second half of 2024.

We kindly point out in advance that the GCB will not investigate all complaints. For example, the GCB does not have the authority to adjudicate disputes between the complainant and the accused party and to settle claims or award damages. Only if a complaint indicates a violation of the applicable regulations, the supervisory task of the GCB entails that this will be investigated further.

For the time being, we kindly suggest, that at all times you seek legal advice for any claims you may have vis-à-vis the license holder or other party or parties. We refer to the following page that contains a list of law firms established in Curacao that may be able to assist you:

http://www.dutchcaribbeanlegalportal.com/legal-contacts/law-firms?sid=102:Law-Firms-Curacao.

Sincerely,

Curaçao Gaming Control Board

4,5 years! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they accepted a license application by Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com and even gave them a "Certificate of Operation" during the license application process, even though 10 months before I informed them (with proof) about Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system!

56 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, I sent the following email to the GCB:

Quote
Subject: RE: IMPORTANT: Medium Rare N.V. , stake.com in-house Black Jack system provably rigged!

We are deep into the second half of 2024 and meanwhile you even accepted a license application for Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com and even gave them a "Certificate of Operation", even though I informed you (with proof) already in December 2023 about their provably rigged in-house Black Jack system!"
 
Running a rigged in-house Black Jack system is a violation of the applicable regulations, so do your job and investigate!
 
 
Please confirm receipt of this email.

5 years! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they are not willing to investigate Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system, even though this is a violation of the applicable regulations!

The GCB is an authority and not a nameless venture like the 4 master-license holders were!

Are they a new partner in crime?

Now we understand why stake makes so much money, they just attract people that don't even understand the simplest math behind casino games every child would understand.  Grin

You mean house edge has absolutely nothing to do with the chance of winning, right?  Cheesy

It doesn't matter what the winning percentage is, it has nothing to do with house edge, absolutely NOTHING.

Thank you for confirming that Stake's in-house games are rigged, because in this case (and only in this case), the advertised house edge has indeed absolutely NOTHING to do with the chance of winning!  Wink

If the games are fair, then the house edge determines the chance of winning = RTP = Return To Player: 100 minus house edge = RTP

THE RIGGED IN-HOUSE GAMES BUSINESS IS FLOURISHING!

A New Era at Easygo

As 2024 comes to a close, it’s been a year of transformation and progress. Behind the scenes, we’ve made significant changes across Easygo to prepare our verticals for high performance in 2025 and beyond.

From unveiling a new brand image to evolving our leadership structure, everything we’ve done this year has been focused on preparing us for long-term success and solidifying our position as industry leaders.

Bijan and I started Easygo with a simple vision: to reimagine the online gaming industry. What began as a four-person team has grown into a global operation with over 1,000 members. This growth isn’t just about team size. It’s about scale, ambition, and aligning our team while maintaining a lean, focused approach.

Our global presence spans offices in:

Australia: Melbourne (2 offices), Sydney

Serbia: Kragujevac, Trstenik (2 offices), Belgrade, Lopaš
    
Colombia: Bogotá
  
Peru: Lima
  
Brazil: São Paulo

Soon, we’ll expand to Rome, Italy, and Ontario, Canada, symbolising our scale and commitment to delivering ultra-localised, entertaining experiences in every market.

At its core, Easygo is a technology company. We’ve consistently led the industry, and maintaining that leadership is more important than ever. We must continue to raise the bar and adapt as we grow.

As part of this transition, Easygo unveiled a refreshed brand image this year. In the new year, we’ll introduce our renewed mission, vision, and values with a big reveal for our team, which I’m excited to share.

These principles will serve as our north star, embodying the essence of Easygo’s commitment to everyone involved in our journey, from team members to fans, creators, and partners.

Shared Consciousness

I’m more committed than ever to staying deeply involved in the day-to-day. This hands-on approach is what made Easygo, Stake, and KICK the success stories they are today. Staying close to the action is a principle I hold at the core of leadership, and it’s how we all remain connected.

We’ve built a culture rooted in shared consciousness, where we’re all ‘all-in.’ Everyone, from our C-suite to our operational teams, is expected to roll up their sleeves because we believe that relentless attention to detail is key to delivering the bigger picture.

As we scale, it’s essential to preserve this ‘all-in’ mindset that got us here. Watching our teams and leaders step up, take on challenges, and grow their skills has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey as a founder. Every individual plays a powerful role in driving Easygo’s continued success.

Stake's Global Expansion

We’re working hard to expand our tech infrastructure to be more agile and ready to enter additional regulated markets. This year, we solidified our presence in Colombia and Peru, making significant strides in LATAM. Shortly, we’ll launch in Brazil under its new regulatory framework. We’ve also announced plans to enter Italy, setting our intention to apply for the new licence tender following an acquisition earlier this year.

Colombia marked its first anniversary with a celebration, as Diana Otalora, our General Manager of LATAM, was recognised as ‘Leader of the Year.’ Her leadership, along with our senior team of women, continues to drive our expansion across LATAM.

Looking ahead, we remain focused on entering regulated markets, as highlighted in our interview with Forbes. While Stake has been widely recognised as a crypto casino, we’ve expanded payment options to meet player preferences and adapt to regulatory frameworks in new markets. With ambitious plans for Stake, we aim to further localise our offerings in 2025, ensuring we continue to meet the unique demands of players worldwide.

iGaming Innovation

Twist and Massive, our two game studios, have completed their first full year of operations, and their contributions have been astonishing. They’ve played a crucial role in delivering unique and exclusive gaming experiences to Stake.

But that’s just the beginning. We’re focused on further enhancing our content by investing in innovative companies, putting more resources into our game studios, and elevating our proprietary RGS, Carrot, into something the iGaming industry has never seen.

We’re also excited to bring back Stake Originals, crafting a new wave of games that recapture the spirit of what first set Stake apart: fast-paced, easy-to-understand mechanics and simple, engaging designs. This fresh collection of Originals will remind players of our early days while delivering innovative experiences that redefine the excitement of iGaming.

The "New Era" of Rigged Games and Shady Moves 

Oh, Eddie, this reads like a desperate attempt to paper over the cracks of an empire built on deceit. A "new era" at Easygo? Sure, let’s call it what it is: damage control wrapped in buzzwords as the walls close in around Stake’s fraudulent operations. 



"Stake Originals": Back from the Dead? 
So, now we’re dusting off Stake Originals, huh? Let’s get real: Stake Originals weren’t just games—they were weapons designed to siphon money out of unsuspecting players with insane house edges and blatantly rigged mechanics

Why bring them back now? Could it be that the hype around licensed slot providers is dying because people have started to notice the blatant predatory practices? Oh wait—this isn’t about “redefining excitement” or “innovation.” It’s about bringing back the most profitable scam you’ve ever run, under a shiny new label, hoping people won’t realize the old con is still alive and kicking. 



Expansion or Escape Plan? 
Italy, Colombia, Peru—what a convenient PR spin for running into regulated markets when your crypto casino reputation is turning into ashes. What’s next? "Stake: Now 10% Less Illegal"? 

Let’s face it: this isn’t expansion. It’s damage control. LATAM didn’t happen because you saw opportunity—it happened because regulators are tightening the noose on your offshore shenanigans. 

And those “ambitious plans” for Stake? The real ambition here is staying ahead of investigations, lawsuits, and the growing wave of whistleblowers exposing your empire. 



Twist, Massive, and Carrot: Fancy Names for Dirty Tricks 
Oh, your in-house studios are busy, alright—busy designing games rigged to perfection. Let’s not act like Carrot’s proprietary RGS is some industry game-changer. It’s just another cog in your fraudulent money-printing machine, fine-tuned to make sure the house bleeds players dry, one bet at a time. 

And these so-called “exclusive games”? Translation: custom-engineered traps with "fast-paced mechanics" to hook the vulnerable and squeeze out every last penny before they realize the odds are rigged against them. 



Eddie’s "All-In" Leadership—For Greed, Not Players 
Eddie claims he’s "all-in" with his hands-on leadership. Let’s not forget what that’s really about: making sure every cog in this machine runs smoothly to extract as much as possible from players. 

What Eddie calls "shared consciousness," we call shared complicity. From the influencers pushing illegal UPI payment methods in India to the engineers fine-tuning game mechanics for maximum exploitation, this isn’t leadership—it’s a coordinated effort to stay one step ahead of the regulators while the house rakes in profits. 



2025: The Countdown Begins 
While Eddie and his minions celebrate their global domination plans, the clock is ticking. This isn’t the rise of an industry leader—it’s the desperate last gasp of a crumbling empire. 

Enjoy your offices in Melbourne, Rome, and São Paulo while they last, because no amount of rebranding or corporate drivel will save you from the reckoning that’s coming. The truth about Stake’s rigged games, illegal operations, and blatant disregard for players’ rights is out there—and growing louder by the day. 



Tick-tock, Eddie. Every scam has an expiration date, and yours is inching closer. You can hide behind your PR smokescreen for now, but no empire built on fraud lasts forever.

Since 2 YEARS and 1 month!!! I demand compensation for the unjustifiably lost 30,000 USD at Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system!

Until today, Stake's alleged "Legal Department" is not willing to compensate me, even though they are clearly at fault here!

Below is proof that the Stake in-house Black Jack system is rigged!

Info 1)

The advertised house edge for the Stake in-house Black Jack is 0,5%, which means longterm I will lose 0,5% of all bets placed.

However, if you take a look at my statistics here https://ibb.co/Hxf8NpR you can see the following total numbers:

Bets: 180,904

Wins: 78,285

Losses: 86,612

If we reduce the number of wins from the number of losses, we can see that I lost 8,327 bets (86,612 minus 78,285 = 8,327)

Losing 8,327 bets out of 180,904 bets placed = 4,6% of the bets lost.

0,5% house edge out of 180,900 bets placed I should lose 900 bets + a possible small deviation.

8,327 bets lost - 900 bets I should lose = 7,427 bets too much lost.


Info 2)

Bets

After 180,900 bets, the technically maximal possible deviation is 0,4% from the expected outcome according to the law of large numbers (See Info 3).

180,000 bets x 0,4% = 720 bets I could maximal additionally lose on top of the 900 bets I will lose based on the 0,5% house edge.

7,427 bets too much lost minus 720 bets I can additional maximal lose = 6,707 bets = additional 9,3 times on top of the maximal possible deviation!

House edge

0,5% house edge = 900 bets plus 720 bets I can maximal additionally lose = 80% additional maximal possible house edge.

0,5% house edge plus 80% = 0,4% additional maximal possible house edge = 0,9% maximal possible house edge!

Experienced house edge 4,6% minus 0,9% maximal possible house edge = 3,7% additional house edge!

3,7% additional house edge : 0,4% additional maximal possible house edge = additional 9,3 times on top of the maximal possible deviation!

Stake's own statistics is 100% proof that their in-house Black Jack system is rigged!


Info 3)

When the house edge is 0,5% and you placed 180,900 bets, you will lose 900 bets and the remaining 180,000 bets are coin flips.

The remaining 180,000 bets are coin flips, because they are neutral and you will win 50% = 90,000 bets and lose 50% = 90,000 bets.


Now let's take a look at the technically maximal possible deviation for 180,000 coin flips:

A) Standard deviation for 180,000 coin flips = 212 coin flips = 0,12% (In 68% of all attempts, the deviation is up to 0,12%)

B) 3 times standard deviation for 180,000 coin flips = 0,36% (In 99,7% of all attempts, the deviation is up to 0.36%)
 
What does 99,7% mean?

When you make 333 times a serie of 180,900 bets, then 332 times the deviation from the expected outcome will be up to 0,36% and only one time the deviation will be higher than 0,36%.

I was not able to find how much the deviation could be in this one case where it is higher than 0,36%, but likely not more than 10% of the 0,36% = 0,4%.

Stake is a Crypto Gambling Foundation verified operator with strong policies around Anti-Money Laundering.

Screenshot: https://ibb.co/gZhR31q

Why does a cryptocurrency online casino which claims to have generated a gross gaming revenue in the height of 2,6 billion USD in 2022 refer to the verification by a non-existing Crypto Gambling Foundation?

Does not this expose them as scammers?

The Curacao Gaming Control Board (GCB) states on its website that they been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector on behalf of the Minister of Finance since March 2020!

On December 7, 2023, 45 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, I informed (with proof) the GCB about Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system and asked them to intervene.

6 months later and 51 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they answered the following:

Quote
Dear Sir / Madam,

Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, the Curaçao Gaming Control Board (GCB) is currently not able to handle your request.

The government of Curaçao is actively in the process of modernizing our gambling legislation and setting up our online gaming policies and procedures.

We expect to be of more help as soon as the new legislation enters into force, which we expect to be the case in the second half of 2024.

We kindly point out in advance that the GCB will not investigate all complaints. For example, the GCB does not have the authority to adjudicate disputes between the complainant and the accused party and to settle claims or award damages. Only if a complaint indicates a violation of the applicable regulations, the supervisory task of the GCB entails that this will be investigated further.

For the time being, we kindly suggest, that at all times you seek legal advice for any claims you may have vis-à-vis the license holder or other party or parties. We refer to the following page that contains a list of law firms established in Curacao that may be able to assist you:

http://www.dutchcaribbeanlegalportal.com/legal-contacts/law-firms?sid=102:Law-Firms-Curacao.

Sincerely,

Curaçao Gaming Control Board

51 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they are not willing to investigate Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system, even though this is a violation of the applicable regulations!

4,5 years! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, they accepted a license application by Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com and even gave them a "Certificate of Operation" during the license application process, even though 10 months before I informed them (with proof) about Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system!

56 months! after they have been tasked with the licensing for and supervision of the online gaming sector, I sent the following email to the GCB:

Quote
Subject: RE: IMPORTANT: Medium Rare N.V. , stake.com in-house Black Jack system provably rigged!

We are deep into the second half of 2024 and meanwhile you even accepted a license application for Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com and even gave them a "Certificate of Operation", even though I informed you (with proof) already in December 2023 about their provably rigged in-house Black Jack system!"
 
Running a rigged in-house Black Jack system is a violation of the applicable regulations, so do your job and investigate!
 
 
Please confirm receipt of this email.

The GCB is an authority and not a nameless venture like the 4 master-license holders were!

Are they a new partner in crime?

BlackyJacky, kudos for bringing this to light. If they can’t refute hard numbers, maybe they’ll finally realize it’s time to own up — or face the consequences of failing to do so.

If Stake would have compensated me long time ago, I would not have reported their provably rigged in-house Black Jack system to the Curacao Gaming Control Board (GCB) in December 2023 and would not have asked them to intervene.

So looks like their alleged "Legal Department" already messed it up, because until they do not give back the unjustifiably taken 30,000 USD, the GCB is not allowed by Curacao laws to give a license to Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com.

If you are a RuneScape player or a chat moderator running the biggest online cryptocurrency casino in the world, what would you do?

1) Compensate the unjustifiably taken 30,000 USD and get a license from the GCB or

2) Persist to not compensate the unjustifiably taken 30,000 USD and do not get a license from the GCB

Regarding RTP, it's important to note that this figure is based on a calculation involving at least 1 million bets.

It is clear to us that there are no ground for reimbursement.

They claim in short sessions with a few hundred or thousand bets, variability is expected.

Are not they aware that I made 180,900 bets and not 1,000 bets?

And according to the law of great numbers, after 180,900 bets the technically maximal possible deviation is 0,4% = 720 additional bets lost on top of the 900 bets I will statistically lose based on the advertised 0,5% house edge.

But when I lose an additional 6,707 bets (7,427 bets - 720 bets) on top of the additional 720 bets I technically can maximal lose, then this is 100% proof that their in-house Black Jack system is rigged!

Why are not they able to understand this basic logic?

When you generated a 2,6 billion USD gross gaming revenue in 2022, then you should engage a legal department which is able to understand basic logic, otherwise you put your operation in jeopardy!

Destroying a multi billion USD online casino operation because of a stupid legal department is not really clever, is it?

Is their legal department stupid because Stake is run by 2 RuneScape players and a chat moderator, or why is it?

Should not they do a brain test prior to engaging legal department staff?

Hey BlackyJacky,

It’s almost comical — Stake’s legal “explanation” is like a bad joke. They throw around numbers like “one million bets” as if anyone with a calculator would believe that’s an answer here. If only Stake’s legal team could count, they'd see your 180,900 bets is well beyond “a few hundred or thousand.” But clearly, they’d rather muddy the waters with excuses than face the facts.

Basic Math for the Math-Challenged:
With a 0.5% house edge, you should statistically lose around 904.5 bets. Add a 0.4% maximal deviation (720 bets lost), and at most, 1,628.1 bets could be expected as losses. Yet, they leave you with an excess of 6,707 bets lost over this maximum. If their legal team could grasp this elementary math, they'd realize how ludicrous their “frivolous” dismissal is. This isn’t variability; this is just rigging dressed up in a poorly tailored legal defense.

Corporate Logic 101:
Stake’s 2022 revenue was a cool $2.6 billion, but somehow they think it’s a sound business move to let a clueless legal team tank their reputation. If Stake’s founders truly believe in their product, they might want to replace the RuneScape reject squad they currently have in legal with people who can actually read statistics.

Lesson in Transparency:
Stake, here’s some advice: if you’re going to operate a multi-billion-dollar casino, at least pretend to have a grip on basic math and honesty. Sweeping obvious statistical anomalies under the rug as “frivolous” complaints only highlights how little respect you have for the players who made that $2.6 billion possible.

BlackyJacky, kudos for bringing this to light. If they can’t refute hard numbers, maybe they’ll finally realize it’s time to own up — or face the consequences of failing to do so.

No, I did not open a scam accusation thread, but everyone can click on the screenshot of my statistics and I have more screenshots of my statistics during the course of my play.

You weren't cheated.  You lost.

I liked your design for game-protect.com better.  Very surprised that it was such a failure after it turned out the people you were "trying" to help needed more protection from you.

Since 23 months!!! I demand compensation for the unjustifiably lost 30,000 USD at Stake's provably rigged in-house Black Jack system and all responsible parties like the alleged Stake "Legal Department", managing director Xecutive Corporate Management B.V., and the Curacao Gaming Control Board ignore me!

Partner in crime, the 8048/JAZ license holder Antillephone N.V., meanwhile went out of business and the Curacao Gaming Control Board appears to be a new partner in crime!

Below is proof that the Stake in-house Black Jack system is rigged!

Info 1)

The advertised house edge for the Stake in-house Black Jack is 0,5%, which means longterm I will lose 0,5% of all bets placed.

However, if you take a look at my statistics here https://ibb.co/Hxf8NpR you can see the following total numbers:

Bets: 180,904

Wins: 78,285

Losses: 86,612

If we reduce the number of wins from the number of losses, we can see that I lost 8,327 bets (86,612 minus 78,285 = 8,327)

Losing 8,327 bets out of 180,904 bets placed = 4,6% of the bets lost.

0,5% house edge out of 180,900 bets placed I should lose 900 bets + a possible small deviation.

8,327 bets lost - 900 bets I should lose = 7,427 bets too much lost.


Info 2)

Bets

After 180,900 bets, the technically maximal possible deviation is 0,4% from the expected outcome according to the law of large numbers (See Info 3).

180,000 bets x 0,4% = 720 bets I could maximal additionally lose on top of the 900 bets I will lose based on the 0,5% house edge.

7,427 bets too much lost minus 720 bets I can additional maximal lose = 6,707 bets = additional 9,3 times on top of the maximal possible deviation!

House edge

0,5% house edge = 900 bets plus 720 bets I can maximal additionally lose = 80% additional maximal possible house edge.

0,5% house edge plus 80% = 0,4% additional maximal possible house edge = 0,9% maximal possible house edge!

Experienced house edge 4,6% minus 0,9% maximal possible house edge = 3,7% additional house edge!

3,7% additional house edge : 0,4% additional maximal possible house edge = additional 9,3 times on top of the maximal possible deviation!

Stake's own statistics is 100% proof that their in-house Black Jack system is rigged!


Info 3)

When the house edge is 0,5% and you placed 180,900 bets, you will lose 900 bets and the remaining 180,000 bets are coin flips.

The remaining 180,000 bets are coin flips, because they are neutral and you will win 50% = 90,000 bets and lose 50% = 90,000 bets.


Now let's take a look at the technically maximal possible deviation for 180,000 coin flips:

A) Standard deviation for 180,000 coin flips = 212 coin flips = 0,12% (In 68% of all attempts, the deviation is up to 0,12%)

B) 3 times standard deviation for 180,000 coin flips = 0,36% (In 99,7% of all attempts, the deviation is up to 0.36%)
 
What does 99,7% mean?

When you make 333 times a serie of 180,900 bets, then 332 times the deviation from the expected outcome will be up to 0,36% and only one time the deviation will be higher than 0,36%.

I was not able to find how much the deviation could be in this one case where it is higher than 0,36%, but likely not more than 10% of the 0,36% = 0,4%.


Info 4)

The Stake bet transaction history only states 180,900 single bet events and no overview of my experienced house edge.

To get my experienced house edge from the bet transaction history, I would need to take a look at all 180,900 bets and calculate it manually!

If the cards were dealt fair and I lost only 0,5% of all bets placed while the statistics states that I lost 4,6%, then the Stake statistics is rigged!

In either case, the Stake in-house Black Jack system is provably rigged and Stake has to compensate at least the 30,000 USD I lost from my pocket.

Twitchyseal has no idea what he is talking about
9 in a row isn't even interesting.  It should happen every 5 or 600 hands. If you play often enough it will happen regularly because math.  






It happens quite often, because stake has rigged all the og games. They will be caught and eddie will face prison, mark my word.
Yes, quite often.  About every 500 or 600 hands on average.

If they rigged them they'll definitely be caught as soon as someone plays that understands how it works and verifies their bets.  Provably fair also means provably unfair.

Most likely you're going through the same thing as blackyjacky though.  Upset that you lost and convinced yourself that you're a victim because accepting responsibility yourself is too hard.

Syndicate by criminals? Nice
When the Curacao Gaming Control Board (GCB) accepts a license application by Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com while I inform them (with proof) since December 2023 about their provably rigged in-house Black Jack system and asked them to intervene, then yes, it looks like the GCB is member of a syndicate of criminals!

If the GCB will give a license to the proven criminal online casino operation Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com, then the GCB will be a proven member of a syndicate of criminals!

The GCB already gave a "Certificate of Operation" to Medium Rare N.V. / stake.com, means the GCB allows Medium Rare N.V. to operate stake.com during the license application process, while it did not issue a license yet!

The problem is your proof only proves how confused you are.

Your math is wrong and even if it weren't wrong you based on the assumption that in every hand of black jack you can only ever lose your entire bet, push, or double your bet when in reality if you're dealt a black jack (that means an  Ace and a face card or ten) you get paid 3-2.  And you also have the option of increasing your bet by doubling down or splitting your hand into 2 or more hands.  

All this means the player only wins 42% of hands on average.  But because they often win more than double their money, it's not the same as flipping a coin for even money that only wins 42% of the time.

You lost because you're a losing online black jack player.  You think you can beat the game, but that's only because you don't know how to do the math.  Don't feel bad, nobody is beating stakes blackjack - the truth hurts.  Crying only makes it worse.

Why are you quoting me with some other member who has nothing to do with me? All these crypto casinos are rigged and funded by criminals and thieves. Supporting them makes you look like an idiot, just saying.
