Yes, you read that accurately.
If I buy several lottery tickets and then leave my account dormant for a long time, say at least 6 months, and my ticket wins the jackpot during that time.
Will anything happen to my prize money? Will the casino refund my money because I never claimed any of the rewards?
It's just a thought I've had for a while and decided to ask here in the community.
But why would you win and leave your prize at the first place and Is the casino your site or are you the co-founder?
Typically everyone who bought the lottery ticket and plays probably wins there are some specify time frame you would be given to come complain your winnings otherwise it could be withheld from you as the winner. But bear it that they always required their players to be more familiarize their ToS and of course every single players must read the team and conditions.
As a bettor, you should monitor your account and know if you win some and to avoid any problem its advisable to read the ToS and visit your account from time to time, imagine winning the lottery and leaving the reward for months, that’s very uncharacteristic for a gambler. Physical lottery might also have a allowed timeframe for your to get your reward, you should know this too.
Well, you are right, but then, don't underestimate what problems can cause, so just be a cool headed person and stay out of problems always, and also pray to be in a good heath condition..
Just imagine that after playing the lottery and while winners are yet to be announced, one thing lead to another and you find yourself inside prison, do you think you will remember you played the lottery? Let alone caring whether you won or not...
Or how about one that had an accident and ends up in a comatose state, how will such a person claim his lottery price if he wins? How will he even know he or she won in the first place.
It's not right to avoid the problem, shouldn't we face the problem so we can overcome it?
Some problems are better avoided than faced, cus it might swallow you in the process of trying to solve it, not every problems is solvable or over-comeable, you might wanna argue this but I've said what I said, remember the proverb which said that, "A prudent man, that is a wise man, forseeth evil(problem) and hides himself.
You can only face the problem that took you unawares, for the one you saw coming, it is wise to avoid it.
Now, regarding your question that if the winner suddenly becomes comatose, the answer to that is this.
Because here, we don't talk about if the real winner dies suddenly, the number one vineverify is that whoever holds the winning ticket will be the valid winner. This means that if the ticket of the deceased or comatose is passed to the child or close family, he will have verification that he won the lottery because he has the ticket.
Well, when I said what I said, I wasn't referring to offline lotteries which I believe the players sure would have some one as a next of kin to stand for them just incase anything happen..
I was actually referring to online lotteries where most players don't even let any of their family members know that they played the lottery, you yourself will agree with me that, you do not disclosed several of your bets to family members, do you ? This is if any of your family even knows that you gamble.
