UPDATE. They banned me after this post and didn't even redeem my keft over funds .. smh lol checks out for who they are I guess.

I honestly doubt they banned you because of posting here, doesn't make too much sense honestly. Did you ever mention any kind of gambling problem when talking to the support? Please be honest.
From the quote you posted I just see a lot of complaining, but not really a direct "confession". Of course the way you complain could be interpreted as a gambling problem but obviously an interpretation is not the same as straight up facts.
We had cases like this before and I think stake, as well as other sites, are legally obligated to basically block users from playing once they show/mention any signs of addiction or whatever behavior. Sure that sounds a bit strange but it's a license thing.
Also, if someone would mention it towards anybody employed by the casino and they don't take action, the player could actually have a legal case. So not be exposed to anything like that they protect themselves and do the easiest thing for them, which is banning the player.

This is a nice write-up, but why should I believe everything you say using a brand-new account? With the way you wrote this up, it looks like you are not a newbie at all, what are you hiding anyway?

Your "randomly closing account" accusations are something I've never witnessed from Stake as I am a strong user of the platform, too; this has never happened to me once; I guess you have done some things wrongly.

The only part that sounds true is how often you win on Stake and this isn't that different from other online casinos too, it got to a stage where I thought something was wrong and I abandoned Stake for a few weeks and moved into another casino but the result isn't that big, I later went back to keep using Stake.


Posted it IN QUOTE for you buddy. They aren't perfect just like everyone else but there mistakes stand out. Seemingly shine a little brighter.

From time to time however (usually if you are up big) stake will do these verification checks and force you to submit more documentation before they allow you to withdraw.
... if you decide not to win tons from them, withdrawals are fast and you should be fine.
Were you KYC verified before you ever started playing with Stake and it was only then that Stake wanted even more documents KYC because you won? Stake doesn't like winners, they are  just the same as the rest of the crummy casino's  with their sore loser complex. (Paid) Fans boys will stick up for Stake of course. They require national ID card under your chin, utility bill to prove your address, to sign up, did they then ask documents more later when they saw you win?





          definitely had this problem after contacting them and asking them a question which specifically said and asked does my account have any restrictions. In quote

during my time as a stake user, I have never had a big problem, yes I am just a small player with very minimal capital, and very different from you, or does it only apply to people who have large capital? I don't know the exact answer, but you have played in various casinos and you are clearly able to distinguish it, maybe there are other friends who think so about stake, but it could be that you expect too much of a big win and you haven't gotten it so bad thoughts start to appear

The Bad:
Stake originals! Stake originals! Stake originals! I wrote that three times to emphasize how terrible and rigged these games are.

You accuse the game of being rigged, but you haven’t provided any proof. If it’s just your personal perception, it’s still wrong to claim it’s rigged, even if it might be true. If you’re not winning at that game, it’s better to stop playing and look for another one.

It’s not that I’m on Stake’s side, but when comparing a newbie's review to a reputable casino, I’d choose the well-established one. While Stake isn’t perfect, there’s a reason they’re in the top 3 crypto casinos in the crypto world.

Many times as newbie players we believe that if we deposit a lot of money we must win, it is an obligation to win and it is not like that, things in the casinos do not work like that, the casinos have their house advantage, it is obvious that they have to have a profit rate, that is why they are companies, businesses that will always have their profits, but the casino always opens windows so that players can win, otherwise they would not exist, because no one goes to a casino to throw away their money, everyone goes but with the consideration that their money is constantly at risk.

Every player must be clear about that, if they are not clear about that, they do not have that maturity, there will Always be accusations of fraud or something just Because of the person's Ignorance.

This is the concluding part of my reply to your allegation/review, and in fairness, this review seems biased and targeted. And as much I would want to be neutral here, a simple proof howsoever little will go a long way.

The ugly:
The ugliest thing about Stake is their non transparency.
This non transparency leaks into their bonus formulas, release dates, and reasoning behind randomly closing accounts and keeping funds.
I score you negative on the bonus formula because, like I said yesterday, it's solely at Stake's discretion and left to you to accept it or decline. On release dates, I don't emphatically know what you mean but the company has their absolute say here too. Even if there is a delay, I am sure they have their reason, logistic and technical issues may arise at any time.

As for the closing of accounts, I frown at this myself but I still have to remain neutral about it until you provide proof. What if you are at fault but still attack Stake because you are not a happy customer?

Quote
Despite having an array of different games (one of their pluses) to choose from, they never seem to win... ever. Stake's interface is pleasant on the eyes and easy to navigate, however there are times it experiences glitches, such as balance not being displayed properly or slow down during a slot. As stake has gotten bigger and bigger it seems like will all things, the quality has gone down. This once top notch site has slowly been on the decline in players eyes and has such is just a former shell of itself.
House will always have the edge, however, if Stake is as bad as you painted it, why is it that most people still prefer to play there? What you allege is happening in every casino. Also, a technical glitch is a must for all systems no matter how effectively they are being managed which is one of the reasons I conclude you are just attacking Stake, this review is therefore biased. Perhaps you've seen a perfect system before? Errors are meant to happen, didn't they later correct it? That's if you are even telling the truth.

I don't think there is something that has a good side without having the other side effect as well along the line, this is what we can encounter with any of the gambling platform of our choice, it does not have to be that only a particular site has an abnormality of challenges in which the gamblers faces when using them, that is why we must also reason along with them that some of these challenges are minor compared to other platforms,
Stake have been good over the years and uptil now stake remain one of the world leading cryptocurrency casino in terms of gambling volume, reputation and high payout, this success record can never be achieved without any negative impact or attributes also to stake, because just as you rightly said, whatever have an advantage also have it disadvantages this is why we have to accommodate whatever negative side to stake as long as it effect doesn't violate their terms of service and also the right of the gambler.
To a large extent, the ops covers alot of the positive aspects of stake which is highly recommended to prove his unbiased judgement in this review and also covering the negative side to expose some of the bad unfriendly features of the casino, between we are left to consider either to accept the obvious truth which is that we bear the bad side and enjoy the good side of the plartform and making efforts to see them improve on the area we think their need improvement.

Quote
except the obvious one which might have affected the way we enjoy gambling on the platform.
I will like to know what the features on stake that affects the way we enjoy gambling?
Have stake slow down on the improvement approach to keep their players always excited with new game's and promos, or have their failed in the fight against gambling addictions, what have changed in the house edge mechanism, I am mentioning all of that, because that are the things that could interfere with the way we enjoy gambling on stake.

A lot of people will exploit the bonus system, if they figure out how it is calculated. The bonus system would reward you, if you lost a lot of money during the week or the month, but the moment when you win a lot of money, it will give you a shitty reward. (It happened to me over the weekend, when I hit a 900x multiplier, just before the Weekly was paid out, and it punished me!)

So, if you play games with a higher Return to Player, your reward will be much different to when you wager with something with a lower RTP.  (Basically, the more you lose, the higher your reward)  Roll Eyes

Stake.com still give some of the best bonusses in the industry, so people should acknowledge that and make the best of it.  Cool

I continue with the replies as stated earlier, but again, I am surprised about what you labelled bad here, they are certainly not peculiar to Stake but all casinos I know and their terms of offering bonuses vary.

The Bad:
Stake originals! Stake originals! Stake originals! I wrote that three times to emphasize how terrible and rigged these games are. I have never had a big win in any of these games. I have played them pretty consistently for the last 3 years.
You are not a professional gambler to have called that rigged. We've always shared on this forum that House always have an edge, so Stake can't be different. The percentage of the House edge now depends on the casino which is why I prefer gambling casino games for fun and sports betting for the money. Just accept the reality and you will be fine.

Quote
Not once have I seen a max win like you see in those YouTube videos or streamers videos, instead I've seen quite the opposite.I have seen non stop stretches where there losses that are not normal especially at games where the odds are supposed to be 50/50 ie. Dice or limbo 1.2. In addition to this the max shot wins are few and far between. It seems those are reserved only for the streamers.
Believe anything you see on social media and streaming platforms at your own peril. But this doesn't mean that the casino directly sponsors them, some would want you to see what will encourage you to open an account through their affiliate links and continue cashing out on you.

Quote
The bonus structure on stake also is highly confusing. They hand out a weekly reward where it seems the formula changes from week to week. There could be some weeks where you wager 30k and get a 70$ rest and others where you wager 60k but only get 50$. It confuses players a lot. The monthly reward they give out is also give it at random times within the month so it also leaves players confused.
You are wrong here, companies have every right to their bonus terms/conditions and it's not within your right to question the modality of offering. In case you don't know how it works, you may ask their support staff, but questioning them on what is fair or not is unjustifiable, it's either you accept the Ts&Cs therein or reject it, it's solely at their discretion to structure their bonuses and decide who to give and who not to give.

I have gambled on Stake before and I am still using the site to gamble sometimes. There are times that I am going to win and there are times that I will be losing. Sometimes you can feel like the games are manipulated. I have gambled on several gambling sites before Stake and they are all the same in a way that the gambling site will likely earn the money while the gamblers will lose. This is not only happening on Stake but it is also happening on all gambling sites. At least I have gambled on more than 5 gambling sites before.

Weldon on your personal review about stake you indeed took the time to give an indebt analysis on the good the bad and the ugly side of the world leading cryptocurrency casino.


What is missing in your review is some fact evidence of your experience, you should include screenshots of all the basic features of stake that you used and mentioned above, at least, that will give your review some level of credibility from all side.
You in this casino world, when some or a gambler is not favoured because of his or her cheating and got nuked then they would come to the public and create article on the casino company. And when you look into those cases, you will discover that they are even at fault. Though in many cases that have came out to accused Stake.com, stake on their part has not really done well to solve those issues by responding to them. The Op has made his own part of the experience has with stake and given the review of it.
We have different experiences in the casino. Some may have been joyful on the outcome but some have felt they were cheated and were given a negative feedback as well. But one thing I realized, each casino has their own set of rules and policies.

If we want to play and make our own rules, we'll definitely be attacked by the casino. But if we are being obedient on their own policies, I think the result will also be satisfying on our part.

The problem is gambling is a combination of winning and losing. In fact, it's actually more on losing than winning. So don't attack the casino if you have been losing all the way, that's the nature of gambling. Putting some bad reviews on the casino won't justify your losses, but it will only make other gamblers see you as a gambler who fails to understand the nature of gambling.

This seems like an honest review of someone who is active on Stake regularly. In terms of transparency (as this was your ugly about Stake), I think you need to join some of their social media channels or forum. I am not a regular customer however I have seen so much of promotions of their events and release dates etc. that you are talking about in my social media feed. Not sure how you can miss it by being a regular player.

Nice write up though, try it for other platforms too.
The review covers quite a large range with stake and their services, although most of what he Said are true since I have been active on stake for sometime now and as much as I can say, stake have one of the most transparent system, and loads of bonuses that keeps the customer at active state where they enjoy the freedom to gamble with most friendly system that luck comes to quickly.
Aside from being one of the largest and biggest cryptocurrency casino stake have a site that can pay out in high volume at instant state, this is what make them one of the best, although the ops also cover's some negative aspects with stake which also I agree with him, because stake is one casino that demands verification as soon as you create an account which is not so with some of the cryptocurrency Casino of their class e.g Bc.games their can allow a player without verification to make deposits play and withdrawal, unil a certain amount is cumulative both in deposits and withdrawal before KYC is demanded which is somewhat ok for any gambler.

That is the reason we have many other alternatives we can choose from at anytime because most of this reputable casinos could easily get carried away with the level of success attained and be led to act in arbitrary to the code of conducts, and also not being fair on some of the games and how the House edge are calculated on some game's.
I disagree with some of the stuff that you stated. Stake is definitely not as amazing as they once were, but their fairness claims shouldn't be questioned since their games can be provably verified at any time.

Well, let's be honest. The formula for bonus (weekly and monthly) is so secret they will never really confirm it or whatever. They say stuff so people stop asking  Grin .
In my experience wager is still a bigger factor than profit/loss. But p/l definitely has an impact.
Agreed. I don't really care much about the actual formula though since their bonuses are not as amazing as they once were thanks to all the cuts.

This is on purpose, casinos like any other business want to increase their profits and one easy way to do this is by giving those seemingly random bonuses, as then gamblers will try to figure out the way to max it out, and during that process they will gamble more in order to do so, this is why I often recommend gamblers to not care about those bonuses, as in your desire to get them, you will spend way more money that whatever bonus any casino may give you.
Casino will give temptation for gamblers because that is their ways to have more and more members. With the promotion that they always do, they will gain benefit from their members because many people will attract to join the promotion especially if the prizes is big for them.
If they can gambling without think much about the bonus or promotion, they will not get tempts or greedy to get the bonus because they only want to have fun. They know that the promotion from the casino can make them lose control and spend more money from the the amount they can afford.
The bonus will always change from time to time so they must adjust with their finances so they will not spend too much money. That will help them to prevent the big lose.

If you watch their weekly raffle on kick.com you will learn a lot about their bonuses because sometimes they explain it again and I actually understood it when I heard it from them. The larger part of your bonus will come from your losses and some of it will come from your wagers.

Now when it comes to the Original games of Stake.com, well yes it sucks, and not because of the RTP but because the game is old-school games. There are not many images in it but just repeatable games. So, you will always have the option to not play those games. I played slots and I enjoyed it more and that's when I minimized my play time in original games like Keno and Plinko.
Plus, I experienced a good multiplier in slots that cannot be received in the originals.

Well, let's be honest. The formula for bonus (weekly and monthly) is so secret they will never really confirm it or whatever. They say stuff so people stop asking  Grin .
In my experience wager is still a bigger factor than profit/loss. But p/l definitely has an impact. When I had wager of like 75k and a loss I get like 80$ and if I have profits it will be like 50$ something, as a high platinum. Other players with more loss and much less wager and a lower rank get 100$, so how does that work?  Cheesy
It also always depends on how much bonus (rakeback, reload, drop claims) you had in the week or the month respectively.

About originals, well it's light and day. I have had huge runs on dice for example going from 50$ to 1500$ in one day, just with 50% odds bets. But in the next session you can lose it all when there is an insane loss streak losing like 70% of bets on 50% odds, it can go really fast. What I do stay away from is originals BJ, it just doesn't work for me. I always lose, never win. Often enough starting with a huge losing streak and then playing the catch up game and lose. 10-15 losses in a row on textbook blackjack is nothing special. You get 20 vs dealer 5, next cards 4 3 3 A 5, hahaha. I just gave up with this game on some point.  Cry

I have quit playing massively at Stake which I used to play almost everyday because I also think that things has changed a lot internally. I used to win huge amounts there from time to time and the losing sessions were not as consecutive as 6 months without a single win in any slot, I mean a decent amount and therefore unless they don't show a good audit report from an independent party regarding slot machines I will not be playing there anymore slots, only poker and sport betting. There is no need to lose money in the most worthless of ways.
That is the reason we have many other alternatives we can choose from at anytime because most of this reputable casinos could easily get carried away with the level of success attained and be led to act in arbitrary to the code of conducts, and also not being fair on some of the games and how the House edge are calculated on some game's.


I accept the truth that there is need for an independent audit on slot machine to assertain the accurate calibration of the the slot machine to offer gamblers a more Fair outcome or a conviction that everything is ok with the present alot machine.

+1

Any type of complaint that is voiced must still be accommodated to be reviewed for its truth and a conclusion can be drawn if both parties confirm and state all their respective arguments. The 1% is always bombarded by supporters who hold the 99% so that it is considered weak and finally even though the 1% can backfire on the opposing party.
What is the meaning of +1, because I have seen it on few comments around the Forum?

Back to topic of discussion.

The validity of any argument is based on the prevailing facts and evidence that is presented by the both parties and if the accuser failed in backing his point with evidence to prove his case, his argument may be discarded untill he is able to prove that Indeed he has a point to prove at any point, against that we have to be careful in our analysis of cases that comes up and let it not be as if we are too quick to support or make a judgement too fast that is why we always take time before making a stands against or for any case.

Quote
Talking about the Stake originals spilled by OP is actually difficult to prove, but based on personal experience it is indeed not according to what is watched but I will not judge the casino considering that gambling is our own responsibility when determining where to play.
Our judgement should not be based on wether or not stake is guilty or not or even because stake is a well known casino here, but our judgement should be based of evidence presented by the ops to back up his claims.
Because that very important since the stake team won't be sharing any of such information because of their privacy policy.

I have to reply to this post three times as you classified them into the good, the bad and the ugly. Let's start with the good but I will not cover the ones you did not add any fault.

Lets start with the good:
Aside from the few times they locked my account and took coin from me, everything else has been smooth. From time to time however (usually if you are up big) stake will do these verification checks and force you to submit more documentation before they allow you to withdraw.
First, it would have been more relevant if you were an established member of the forum, but for you to have a single post on this account, I will not be fooled to believe this, the world is ugly enough to know that a big name like Stake would have rivalry attacks and I wonder why you even mixed bad review with what you called good part of your review, why not wait for the bad and the ugly? I wonder what to expect later when I read the bad and the ugly reviews in the coming days.

As for the verification, it's a standard procedure that is even backed by law to ask for an additional one. The only case I can blame Stake is when you provided them with all the documents but still rejected them, thankfully, you never mentioned that. Just provide the needed document and you will be fine.

Quote
In two occasions my account was closed and funds were seized due to some breach they ordained I had made. With that being said when you ask them for more details about this, they will reply that they cannot give you any details and the case is closed. Besides this, if you decide not to win tons from them, withdrawals are fast and you should be fine.
You will do well by adding proofs to back this up. If your account was locked a second time, that means you are insensitive, did you think they would not detect you were the first locked account? I know you won't state the true reason why the account was locked the first time, but it's easy for you to make it look bad.

OP I have no choice but to disagree.

1. If you have said that Stake have slow withdrawal or deposit you would have been bursted, this is the best part of Stake casino.

2. Coming from a new forum account, hell no.

3. There is no single evidence to back up your claim, not even a single screenshot.

How do you want people to take this very seriously?

If you are out of luck it is not the casino's fault, people do blame the casino if they start winning less and losing more but they forget that this is mathematical, here is a tip, if you don't like what you are getting you should stop using the casino and find another.

Seems like OP is a little rough on Stake. It’s hard to knock them just because you didn’t hit a max win on one of their games. Luck could have easily sent that the other way. Also, I think there are a lot of great things about Stake other than just their withdrawals. They have a huge selection of games to play and a wide range of sporting events always available. I think that is more important than the speed of a withdrawal.

Weldon on your personal review about stake you indeed took the time to give an indebt analysis on the good the bad and the ugly side of the world leading cryptocurrency casino.


What is missing in your review is some fact evidence of your experience, you should include screenshots of all the basic features of stake that you used and mentioned above, at least, that will give your review some level of credibility from all side.

Yeah I agree. What's bad about this kind of review that has no screenshots or absent of evidence is they are going to add and will overlook some point and most of the time they will add based on other players' experience.

Even a screenshot of his claim that he is a gold member is good start to make us believe that some part of what he is saying is true.

Your review makes a lot of sense op. Stake is definitely not as amazing as it once was, but it's still a great site to gamble in thanks to their quick deposit and withdrawal speeds along with minimal fees.

However, I disagree with your opinion about their originals being rigged since I have observed some players win big in plinko etc. Only some gamblers around the world get lucky enough to win humongous amounts through casino games.

honestly the negative parts are not so negative...

their originals games are technically verifiable and not modifiable by the gambling house. the fact that in 3 years OP has not won has no statistical value and makes me wonder if he/She understand how difficult it really is to win a large share.

on the part of the bonus, as much as the lack of transparency is questionable, they are not violating any law. in fact, many other bookmakers do not have any type of similar reward.

and if they did not offer these bonus?
of course everyone would complain again... Roll Eyes

First of all, OP, thank you, and you gave reviews or insight according to your experience of playing at stakes casino for a couple of years. The sides that you gave a view from good, bad, and ugly are good.

And all of what you said may or may not be true. Then maybe all casinos have their weak points that can really be said. Now, based on your story, the only thing missing is that you didn't show proof that those experiences of yours are real. You are the one I see lacking.

I have quit playing massively at Stake which I used to play almost everyday because I also think that things has changed a lot internally. I used to win huge amounts there from time to time and the losing sessions were not as consecutive as 6 months without a single win in any slot, I mean a decent amount and therefore unless they don't show a good audit report from an independent party regarding slot machines I will not be playing there anymore slots, only poker and sport betting. There is no need to lose money in the most worthless of ways.

You do the right move on quitting the casino if you already feel that you are not winning anything. I’m not suggesting that Stake has rigged games which is the reason for your losses rather you are not enjoying the game in there since you already have bad speculation on the casino which always make you frustrated to play on that casino anymore.

We have different preferences and it’s normal to experience losing streak since you experience to have huge win before. The RTP of the casino games dictates that you will win less to your original bankroll in the long run which means all your previous winning will surely loss if you keep playing since that’s how RTP works on game that has negative EV.

Most important on gambling is you enjoy that’s why I said that you do the right thing so that you can move on.

The ugly:
The ugliest thing about Stake is their non transparency.
This non transparency leaks into their bonus formulas, release dates,

How come this feature makes the ugliest thing on Stake. I also ask about the formula computation of bonuses in the past but it’s not a big deal anymore since I consistently receiving bonus. You can speculate on what is the formula consideration if you are a regular player.

The hidden formula and release date add to the element of surprise on playing at Stake.

Stake only keep the funds that accumulated through the due to the violation. The deposit amount always being refunded to affected user besides all casino doesn’t fully disclose the detail of the violation aside from the general terms that being violate.

You in this casino world, when some or a gambler is not favoured because of his or her cheating and got nuked then they would come to the public and create article on the casino company. And when you look into those cases, you will discover that they are even at fault.
I agree to disagree because it's a 50-50 situation tbh, sometimes players could cook up stories just to try and dent the casino's name in trying to get even with the casino when they are actually in the wrong, and sometimes these reputation damaging articles are from real players that haven't had a fair hearing because some of these casino's/sportsbooks just don't give a **** about what the public thinks of them as they have a good customer base and think they are invisible.

Sometimes such reviews just don't follow from cheating customers; there are also some real customers that some casinos don't treat very well, and out of the frustration they get from the casino service, they pure it all in long reviews to express how disappointed they are on that casino and earn others of such.
Agreed!!

Business 101, it's not always about the 99% positive reviews...as a business you need to take interest in what the 1% are saying because sooner or later that 1% grows to become the 99% and it will be too late for turning a deaf ear on genuine concern's.
+1

Any type of complaint that is voiced must still be accommodated to be reviewed for its truth and a conclusion can be drawn if both parties confirm and state all their respective arguments. The 1% is always bombarded by supporters who hold the 99% so that it is considered weak and finally even though the 1% can backfire on the opposing party.

Talking about the Stake originals spilled by OP is actually difficult to prove, but based on personal experience it is indeed not according to what is watched but I will not judge the casino considering that gambling is our own responsibility when determining where to play.

Exactly since its every opinion must be heard since we cannot erase the certain facts that there are people will write their experience on the casino they mentioned. Even though they are reputable there are really things or actions that discourage people that's why some people here posting their disappointment towards them.

Although we really need to verify each complaint but we should not get blinded with long years and reputation display since there are reputable casino turn into a scam. But in case of Stake I think everything still fine with their end. This case is maybe made up because OP is just frustrated with the result he encountered with Stake. So for now if there's no other information to validate or back up his claims that statement will remain unproven and for sure lots of people will not validate any accusation with no good supporting documents posted.

I have seen non stop stretches where there losses that are not normal especially at games where the odds are supposed to be 50/50 ie.
No, the house edge of Dice at Stake is 1% which translates as 99% Return To Player but the odds are 49/51 in favour of Casino.

The bonus structure on stake also is highly confusing. They hand out a weekly reward where it seems the formula changes from week to week. There could be some weeks where you wager 30k and get a 70$ rest and others where you wager 60k but only get 50$. It confuses players a lot. The monthly reward they give out is also give it at random times within the month so it also leaves players confused.

The ugly:
The ugliest thing about Stake is their non transparency.
This non transparency leaks into their bonus formulas, release dates, and reasoning behind randomly closing accounts and keeping funds. Despite having an array of different games (one of their pluses) to choose from, they never seem to win... ever. Stake's interface is pleasant on the eyes and easy to navigate, however there are times it experiences glitches, such as balance not being displayed properly or slow down during a slot. As stake has gotten bigger and bigger it seems like will all things, the quality has gone down. This once top notch site has slowly been on the decline in players eyes and has such is just a former shell of itself.
If you want to get rewarded for your high wagers, then join the Metawin. I'm not saying this because I promote the website, no, just try it yourself and thank me later Cheesy They have a VIP transfer available and special Salon Lounge for VIP members. They also have Web3 wallet support and claim that you are able to deposit and withdraw up to 30 ETH per day in less than 60 seconds, without a pesky human interaction.

Btw the quality goes down because they generate enormous money and doesn't seem to hire many new employees. They are investing lots of money in streamers and marketing overall.

This seems like an honest review of someone who is active on Stake regularly. In terms of transparency (as this was your ugly about Stake), I think you need to join some of their social media channels or forum. I am not a regular customer however I have seen so much of promotions of their events and release dates etc. that you are talking about in my social media feed. Not sure how you can miss it by being a regular player.

Nice write up though, try it for other platforms too.

This is my honest review of Stake. I am a Gold member and play usually everyday.
If your Stake username is same as your Bitcointalk forum username, then you have already become a Platinum 1 ranked user on Stake. Your lifetime wager is $110k, where $250k wagering is required to reach platinum 1 rank. Looks like your sports betting wagering has boosted your VIP rank.

Different games have different contributions towards the bonuses at Stake. They also consider the wagering activity from deposits, and users weekly or monthly PnL stats. Still, the bonus parameters of Stake is indeed mysterious. I have similar experience like you about Stake bonuses. Anyway, Stake in-house games aren't rigged.

This is a nice write-up, but why should I believe everything you say using a brand-new account? With the way you wrote this up, it looks like you are not a newbie at all, what are you hiding anyway?

Your "randomly closing account" accusations are something I've never witnessed from Stake as I am a strong user of the platform, too; this has never happened to me once; I guess you have done some things wrongly.

The only part that sounds true is how often you win on Stake and this isn't that different from other online casinos too, it got to a stage where I thought something was wrong and I abandoned Stake for a few weeks and moved into another casino but the result isn't that big, I later went back to keep using Stake.

The one that ticks all your good Box.

I'm quite surprised how people find this place to do their reviews and most of the time
They never make a review to praise except it's a Casino people barely know.
You could just state this in their thread since you were able to locate this board
And see their response and response of other user
That would help know how concrete your facts are.

So in short, you are saying stake is bad, but for the sake of gaining attention, you also made a section about the “good” things stake offers. In that section also, you have mentioned how rudely stake freezes your winnings sometimes. I feel that if you win the games legitimately without exploiting any bugs, if you do deposit from legitimate sources, then no matter what you do in the stake account, your withdrawals will never be blocked. I have been playing at Stake for more than 5-6 years and till now not faced any single issue with them. Yes, the games might be slow, but there are always options to try the other games, right?

I can only agree that you may be blocked from your account and require additional verification in case of a large gain, and this is not accurate. In any casino, absolutely.

The Bad:
Stake originals! Stake originals! Stake originals! I wrote that three times to emphasize how terrible and rigged these games are. I have never had a big win in any of these games. I have played them pretty consistently for the last 3 years. Not once have I seen a max win like you see in those YouTube videos or streamers videos, instead I've seen quite the opposite. I have seen non stop stretches where there losses that are not normal especially at games where the odds are supposed to be 50/50 ie. Dice or limbo 1.2. In addition to this the max shot wins are few and far between. It seems those are reserved only for the streamers. The bonus structure on stake also is highly confusing. They hand out a weekly reward where it seems the formula changes from week to week. There could be some weeks where you wager 30k and get a 70$ rest and others where you wager 60k but only get 50$. It confuses players a lot. The monthly reward they give out is also give it at random times within the month so it also leaves players confused.

Those games aren't rigged, and they are provably fair, but getting big multipliers is complex, a good example of this is Plinko in the hard mode, getting the x999 has odds of 1/32000 or something like that, and getting the max multiplied on limbo or dice still complex as hell, you need to have a lot of luck to chase those multipliers.

And you can verify each of those bets and you can change the user seed to avoid the manipulation from the house side.

We have seen many types of these reviews about casino and one thing that is common is that they are coming from people who feel that casino did not do well because they did not win or got into trouble for reasons they cannot boldly say, hence it becomes more convenient to blame the casino. It is just on few occasion I have seen some admitting to violating the casino TOS through multiple account. Others will feign ignorant of their offense for account closure or accuse the casino of not giving them bonus for their loyalty and loss. You will hardly see these complaints come from someone that is known in this forum rather some random people with probably new accounts. This is why I find it difficult believing some of the claims that some attempt to prove sometimes.
Absolutely correct, the fact that they haven't win a single big win they thinks that the casino is a scam or is rigged. However it's clear that they want to spoil the reputation of stake.com because they aren't lucky on any kind of the games that stake.com offers.
The funny thing is that it's only newbies that do gives such a review without any evidence to make their statement truthful.
Besides, gamble is for entertainment and it doesn't matter if the gambler win big or small money from the casino because their are some gamblers that haven't win even a single Satoshi from a crypto or fiat casino. Most importantly, many gambler fails to read the terms and conditions of the casino that they are using and if they get into trouble with the casino ignorantly, they complain but not knowing that the faults is from them.
Any review that focuses more on the bad side of a plartform against their advantages and good reputation over time, this should be monitored and kick against most especially when the review is against a reputable casino's such as stake that we are mostly used to here in the forum's and even outside the forum, accepting whatever any newbies put out as a review is not going to be acceptable and the reason is because most of those they reports lack the necessary evidence to prof any point that they truly were once a player's on the casinos and have been treated badly in the cause of their playing on the site.


Stake have been recently dragged and the reason is because stake happens to be one of the most popular casinos so their are oppositions that comes against such level of success.

At first we need to ask ourselves when these people are bring up serious of complain and did they came with solid prove to show themselves from from they are complaining? NO! I think i have also came across those complaint as well but with no solid evidence to backed their claims about casino's or betting site. We should also understand that most of these people who kept saying all this are mostly cheaters just as you already said but when they are being caught off they look for one excuse to give to back them up but yet without knowing that these casino are too smart to have fetched out people using multiple to operate on their website.

From time to time however (usually if you are up big) stake will do these verification checks and force you to submit more documentation before they allow you to withdraw.
... if you decide not to win tons from them, withdrawals are fast and you should be fine.
Were you KYC verified before you ever started playing with Stake and it was only then that Stake wanted even more documents KYC because you won? Stake doesn't like winners, they are  just the same as the rest of the crummy casino's  with their sore loser complex. (Paid) Fans boys will stick up for Stake of course. They require national ID card under your chin, utility bill to prove your address, to sign up, did they then ask documents more later when they saw you win?

Stake is one of the online casinos that have strict rules on their verifications, and most times before you ever gamble on stake as a new registered player, they usually demand for some level of verifications and if you win and want to withdraw above the stipulated trench hood, you will be asked to submit more documents and their verification process comes in levels, sometimes their demand for IDs and other time what they need is just an email and address verifications.

So it all depends on the level of kyc that the player is up against, and in at such we still have gamblers that may still run into troubles along the line a d for sure, it most likely that such customers will definitely feel dissatisfied with stake format of demanding for kyc verifications.

No doubt, in most cases some accusers have been found guilty and still want to be pity based on how they present their story, but even as that, we can't completely condemn all negative reviews about a casino by dissatisfied customers; we should always try to give them a benefit of doubt.
What just happened is that when people do follow the instruction of casinos or betting site and adhered to their regulations i don't think they would face any problem while using that site to gamble. But what most people does is that they completely go against the rules and regulation and expect the gambling site to have mercy on them knowing too well that those ToS is what guiding them and of a true there will no compromise from the casino site. If there are any wrong activities from gambler or bettors then definitely they would face serious issues and if they didn't follow the requirement of the site then it leads to auto-restriction or freezing of account then they would come out to speak against the casino or betting site for their actions forgotten that they are people who faulted.

Weldon on your personal review about stake you indeed took the time to give an indebt analysis on the good the bad and the ugly side of the world leading cryptocurrency casino.


What is missing in your review is some fact evidence of your experience, you should include screenshots of all the basic features of stake that you used and mentioned above, at least, that will give your review some level of credibility from all side.
You in this casino world, when some or a gambler is not favoured because of his or her cheating and got nuked then they would come to the public and create article on the casino company. And when you look into those cases, you will discover that they are even at fault. Though in many cases that have came out to accused Stake.com, stake on their part has not really done well to solve those issues by responding to them. The Op has made his own part of the experience has with stake and given the review of it.

From time to time however (usually if you are up big) stake will do these verification checks and force you to submit more documentation before they allow you to withdraw.
... if you decide not to win tons from them, withdrawals are fast and you should be fine.
Were you KYC verified before you ever started playing with Stake and it was only then that Stake wanted even more documents KYC because you won? Stake doesn't like winners, they are  just the same as the rest of the crummy casino's  with their sore loser complex. (Paid) Fans boys will stick up for Stake of course. They require national ID card under your chin, utility bill to prove your address, to sign up, did they then ask documents more later when they saw you win?


It’s business man, I believe no one on earth will be smiling if someone comes to your business and takes from you but on the other way around they’ll be happy (that’s if they make profit) - the only thing is that it’s now gambling and they require others to lose their money for them to make profit.

Let me ask you; if you should start up a casino and a user comes to your site and spins with just a dollar and hits jackpot what will you do? It will bring you fame but still take money away from your pocket. If I should run a casino and I notice an account that constantly winning the first thing I’ll do is to limit the account (because he’s bad for my business) and if they want to continue they can since that will reduce the amount that’s being lost through them.

This is my honest review of Stake. I am a Gold member and play usually everyday. I have played on other sites before, 5dimes bovada, nitrogen, cloudbet, sportsbet.io etc. so I know my way around the block.

Lets start with the good:
Stake offers the fastest withdrawals I've had by far. They have great wallet options and a diverse amount of crypto you can play with. Every time I've made a withdraw I have received it in a timely fashion. Aside from the few times they locked my account and took coin from me, everything else has been smooth. From time to time however (usually if you are up big) stake will do these verification checks and force you to submit more documentation before they allow you to withdraw. In two occasions my account was closed and funds were seized due to some breach they ordained I had made. With that being said when you ask them for more details about this, they will reply that they cannot give you any details and the case is closed. Besides this, if you decide not to win tons from them, withdrawals are fast and you should be fine.

The Bad:
Stake originals! Stake originals! Stake originals! I wrote that three times to emphasize how terrible and rigged these games are. I have never had a big win in any of these games. I have played them pretty consistently for the last 3 years. Not once have I seen a max win like you see in those YouTube videos or streamers videos, instead I've seen quite the opposite. I have seen non stop stretches where there losses that are not normal especially at games where the odds are supposed to be 50/50 ie. Dice or limbo 1.2. In addition to this the max shot wins are few and far between. It seems those are reserved only for the streamers. The bonus structure on stake also is highly confusing. They hand out a weekly reward where it seems the formula changes from week to week. There could be some weeks where you wager 30k and get a 70$ rest and others where you wager 60k but only get 50$. It confuses players a lot. The monthly reward they give out is also give it at random times within the month so it also leaves players confused.

The ugly:
The ugliest thing about Stake is their non transparency.
This non transparency leaks into their bonus formulas, release dates, and reasoning behind randomly closing accounts and keeping funds. Despite having an array of different games (one of their pluses) to choose from, they never seem to win... ever. Stake's interface is pleasant on the eyes and easy to navigate, however there are times it experiences glitches, such as balance not being displayed properly or slow down during a slot. As stake has gotten bigger and bigger it seems like will all things, the quality has gone down. This once top notch site has slowly been on the decline in players eyes and has such is just a former shell of itself.



I have been using stake.com sometimes now and never seen where my account was blocked or locked for any reason neither has my fund being stolen from the gambling site. If you think your funds are illegally being stolen without your permission then I will asked you to activate 2FA to enable your account remain secured more than your expectations.

Then for about system having glitch, I will encourage you to use a smarter and faster network, possible you need a 5G+ device to play your casinos games. I personally if I want to play casino game especially roulette what I does is that I would switched over to my personal computer, I mean my laptop it works very smart and cool over there since the screen resolutions fits more better on laptops or pc you would have no issues.

However, I can't actually comprehend the meaning of this review and I don't also know if you are being paid to post this but I must say that no casino is 100% exceptional even most of the casinos that are seems to be sole competitors of stake.com are also having issues here and there were they also blocked people's account without their problems being resolved.

I will suggest if you have any issues it's better to write the live-suport desk you will be properly attended than just writing all these. Perhaps I know you feels so bittered over everything but you need to be patient and again most importantly you need to read ToS to be at the safer side while gambling with any betting or casino sites out there.

Have a wonderful day.
