Topic: What is your worst nightmare in a casino? - page 6. (Read 755 times)

The worst thing I don't want to experience in a casino is probably getting hacked out of the blue. Even with the extra layer of security we have in place, it can still happen, and while i'm away I sometimes get these random thoughts because I always have some balance sitting on my casino account. It's usually an amount I can afford to lose and even then it's still money at the end of the day. It might just be me overthinking about these situations, but you never know when someone can randomly target your account and get away with it on a random day.

I experienced the worst thing in gambling, almost as you fear, when I got a big win of course I cashed it out. but the casino did not pay the winnings that I had earned, even though I had tried to communicate and complain to the staff at the casino but there was no good response from them, there was no movement whatsoever, until finally I gave up and let the winnings disappear. just like that. it's annoying and painful, because in my opinion a big win is what every gambler who gambles wants.

and it doesn't stop there, the casino gave me the winnings but didn't pay it when I made a withdrawal, they also froze my account or locked it so that when I wanted to log in again but what happened was a bad thing, I couldn't access my account again, Maybe that's because casinos don't want to experience big losses from those who use small capital to gamble. I hope this doesn't happen to many gamblers, but if many gamblers experience this, maybe it will be a lesson that will deter gamblers and stop gambling, if that's the case, that's good in my opinion.

I will never forget this one; I consider this my nightmare in crypto casino. I lost 12,000 PHP (Philippine Pesos) on Primedice due to using the Martingale betting strategy with 50 PHP base bet. As a newbie gambler at the time, driven by curiosity after reading about dice betting strategies, I tried the Martingale strategy. At first, I was winning with my base bet of 50 PHP but after several hours I ended up losing because I experienced 10 lose streak. Because I was using the Martingale strategy at that time, I lost more than 12K PHP. I'm still using martingale but only in sports betting with almost even odds.

In my early days of gambling, the problem I had with a casino was also KYC issues. I ever knew they would ask for it after a win and I wanted to remain anonymous. I had a win and they began to ask for some documents that I never wanted to give. I was faced with forgoing my funds or giving them my personal information. I needed the funds so I had to give out my data before I was allowed to withdraw.

It is a very painful experience especially when you don't want to give out your data. Gamblers that are going through these issues should be supported and not castigated. Some of them have lost so much until they were just fortunate to have that win. Depriving them of such is very painful. But I think most of these cases are caused by simple misunderstandings maybe some gamblers fail to reason the terms of service.

My worst nightmare would be I won an amount that's huge to my financial capability and casino says there is some malfunction in the machine so that bet will be void.

Imagine what will be your reaction if you are in that situation? Shocked, feel cheated or lose hope of your life even...

Well, considering the wording of your question and it containing "in" as though you're talking about a physical place, the answer is easy for me.  I hate casinos because the ones that I've been in always allow cigarette smoking.  Cigarette smoke is my least favorite thing in the world and I can't stand to be around it for any length of time.  So for me, I avoid casinos because I don't want to smell like an ashtray or have to breathe in that nonsense.  A close second would be a very large scary man seeing me win and then following me out to the parking lot. 

Maybe this one also will be my nightmare because once a casino ask me a document such as proof of income then it will be hard for me to do it because I'm a self-employed or an enterpreneur.
Especially if the casino ask me to provide something like official letter from the government, it will be dangerous for me because gambling is illegal in my country.
Other possible nightmare can be getting caught by the local police when I play online casino so it will bring me into jail (in most cases, gamblers who get caught in my country is jailed for 3 months).
Hopefully there will be no nightmare in my gambling journey.

In the case of a brick and mortar casino, one of my worst nightmare scenarios would be to get drunk or somehow lose control over myself, waking up next morning and not recalling what happened to me, also realizing I have lost all my money to the casino and I cannot longer afford anything during those vacations.
In the case of an online casino, I think that situations you just described with the jackpot is pretty much the worst scenario which comes to my mind. A different variation of that situation would be hitting the jackpot and when I am finally allowed to withdraw all the money ,I introduced the wrong cryptocurrency address, leading to a massive loss of funds. Obviously the casino will not care and won't give me anything afterwards. That is the worst nightmare anyone could experiment while engaging in online gambling/Bitcoin gambling, in my personal opinion.

I would rather not to further think about those situations. 

It already happened to someone so it's not far-fetched to see it happens again. Asking for KYC documents and then not really validating what you submitted, only to find out they are to investigate first and have to consult a 3rd party game provider. This is happening in centralized casinos.

In the decentralized casinos, this is also what our worst nightmares would be, you connect your wallet and then find out the next day that all your assets are gone. Although I have not read someone experienced this issue, it's possible to happen since there was an incident when people connected their wallet to a web3 app and then assets were withdrawn.

This is a very natural worry for some people who are members of a casino and gambling. And when someone gets a big win in gambling, it becomes a hope for the players that they can get the prize they have won as soon as possible, without experiencing obstacles or delays for quite a long time.

And here, of course, casinos as parties that provide various types of gambling have a responsibility to ensure fairness and security in their operations. As part of the security and regulatory compliance process, casinos may request verification documents to verify a player's identity and financial capabilities, and although this may seem difficult for players, these steps are usually taken simply to protect the players, and the casino from the potential for fraud, money laundering or other illegal acts.

And when we play honestly according to the rules, and are able to pick and choose which gambling platforms to visit, there should be no worries of this kind.

My biggest nightmare in a casino is to win big and don't be able to withdraw. And I have seen a lot of people with this problem. Usually when a gambler wins a big amount the casino request a Kick process but if the user fails in the process then he will not be able to withdraw, and that is a terrible experience for the user, because he is literally doxing himself for money.  And I'm not saying the KYC process is something wrong, but some times casinos make bad use of users' data, and that's a risk for everyone.

Losing everything, it will be a nightmare for sure. It is hard seeing myself at my lowest, especially financially knowing how expensive it is to sustain a lifestyle at this point that inflation is obvious in most countries. Given how I fear such thing to happen, I make sure to always track my bankroll including wins and loss to make myself aware of things. I always prioritize being in control of my gambling behvior and activities.

It may sound simple but actually, many people, including me, are struggling about self discipline when it comes on betting. Money itself is a huge drive to push us to continue betting regardless of loss. We always have to keep ourselves reminded that winning will never be assured and if we fear losing huge amount of money, we should be preventive of betting huge as well.

But what you have mentioned is valid. Winning is difficult to achieve and when that moment comes such thing happen and will be ruined buy anything, it would be for sure frustrating. If it is with landbased casinos then it is hard to believe its possibility given that authorities will be helping you to handle it. With web 3.0 betting then there are reputable sites you can rely on. What's worse is to get scammed by the platform itself, showing that you won but in reality they'd just run with the amount you deposit. Better avoid suspiscious platforms early.

Whenever we're talking about nightmares, I believe it's about losing money lol. I'm scared that I lose everything. Maybe that's just the second thing. The first thing is to get killed inside the casino. There might be some unstable folk and then have a holdup within the casino. That's really scary and there are some encounters here in my country that happened like that. Or even after winning the jackpot, you will be tailed and harrassed. Those are some pretty scary stuff.

I have heard different stories of how some gambling companies frustrates individuals on KYC and other relevant but irrelevant documents before their withdrawal can be processed more especially on a larger winning. Gambling is very risky both in playing and when one wins because majority of gambling companies that exist all over the world is fake and fraudulent so it is advisable to place bets that the potential winnings would not be too huge to an extent that the betting site will be demanding you to provide documents that doesn't have anything to do with one's winning and again, learn to read the terms and conditions of any betting company because a lot of gamblers doesn't read the terms and conditions of gambling sites that's why they finds it difficult in times of larger winning.

Perhaps, your case is unfortunate because this involves a jackpot winning and not a normal placing of bets so it is not a good one on the reputation and integrity of that betting site.

No player is happy if they face problems like that, friends. Behind the aim of gambling for fun, there is something in their hearts that they want to win with a big jackpot. When you get a big jackpot and your account cannot withdraw, it will be a regrettable event.
If the casino asks for documents such as KYC to carry out verification and after completing it the user can make a withdrawal, it may not be a problem even though privacy has been leaked.

I have encountered players with cases like that but there was no final resolution. Of course I don't expect that to continue to happen to players at every casino they play at even though each casino has terms and conditions.

Of course if that happens it will be the worst nightmare that has ever happened to us, but I hope something like that doesn't happen to me, if I win a jackpot of $50k or up to $100k, that's why I always choose casinos that are responsible for their users and at least I have access to some of the people who run the casino personally, at least I can deal with unwanted things happening to me.

Thus, even though I currently gamble at online casinos, of course undesirable things can happen unexpectedly, therefore I am very against betting large amounts at online casinos, It's not that I don't trust the casino, but as you said, we never know behind the scenes, remember that the internet/online can suddenly crash or be blocked, so we need to anticipate everything, betting with minimal ability to win is not a disaster for us, betting large amounts of risk cannot help us in a tight situation.

I have never experience such huge money in my gambling since I started gamble and, if such thing happen to me to win big money from a casino from a well register casino, I don't think they will have the right not to release the money to me unless they don't have it at the moment because there are some government offices I will report such cases and justice will be done immediately.

 I don't think a standard casino will involve themselves to such issues that will be making gamblers to be avoiding their gambling center because, they know that it will affect their customers which will be the reason they will allow the winner to have his money immediately.

This is quite unfortunate and frustrating seeing your winnings deduce all because of some Casinos self interest.i see this as a guide as this have not happened to me before but with this I'll eventually know what action to take when it sure happens and again I see this as a means whereby those casinos officials enrich themselves but nevertheless it shouldn't get to the point of seizing your profit.
Sometimes they might be doing so because the observed you just hit a big jackpots so that's the means they'll use to extort ur money from you rather than asking you to compensate them.

In general, the worst nightmare a gambler can experience is winning a huge amount and you encounter a lot of issues, like suddenly the casino asks for so many documents and you are accused of cheating like having alt accounts.

All the complaints in the scam sections are all about withdrawals after winning huge amounts of money and you know that you have not been very careful not to break the rules of the casino that you're playing, this is the worst nightmare that every gambler is afraid to encounter.

This can only be avoided if you're playing in a reputable casino because they are going to protect their reputation to keep their standing in the gambling industry as a reputable casino.

The worst nightmare that I will never allow to repeat itself again that happened to me is that, I went to the betshop because I have a low battery and I cannot book my games online, I place my bet on the games and went home. Unknown to me that my ticket was not properly put inside my pocket, and when I went home, I just pull off my trousers and freshen up without any notice.

In the evening, when I checked the result of the game from my phone, it came out as I predicted. I was so happy and wore my trouser to bring out the ticket so that I can check it again to be very sure. I could not find it inside my pocket, I would have said that someone took it from my pocket, but at that time I was alone in the house, as my family traveled. I got paranoid and dashed down to the bet shop, but I couldn't claim my win.
