I agree with all you guys , I was offered just now by them a 20 mbtc prize for bringing this to their attention which is nice

.

well that is too low for the favor you made for the company,imagine if you did abused the Bug/you can easily win much more than what they can offer you,but that is just a reward because what you done is good thing for others and not for any payments.

This will let me award you also a Salute because only few that will not take advantage of the situation.

So lets say "hypothetically" that I've came across a bug in a pretty big an well-established gambling websites sportsbook that allows me to place bets on matches which have already ended , thus knowing the outcome and being able to place some sure x30-x40 betslips.

What path would you follow , report the bug , or try to benefit from it ?

I'll prefer to report it instead of trying to take benefit from it. No other reason except "being honest" on everything we do is better.
There is also high chance that the site will notice it if you try to abuse the bug and you may be in a problem such as frozen balance or blocked account and you wont be able to do anything because I believe most site wont accept any bug abuses.

It would be far and honest behaviour to.report the bag. I guess that is up to everyone's concious but it would be wrong to try to benefit from bug or malfunction you've discovered. That is my opinion, so I wouldn't try to use it.
Also, there is possibility for your account to be baned or put on some black list and you don't need extra troubles so think twice.

I guess I would just report the bug since it could affect their website and the worst case is they could shut down if they couldn't handle it anymore and they lose tons of money already.
I guess reporting it would be the best to keep their website and there could also be a reward for telling them the bug.
I am not saying that it wouldn't cross my mind to use the opportunity but if it is my favorite gambling site then it would be a shame if they would stop operating because of that bug.

If they cant trace my real identity after exploiting then I will try to place a bet and see if I can make profit. After taking advantage I will report the bug. We gamble to win and bumping into this scenario is like a chance given for us to experience how to guarantee win. It might sounds greedy but I think its a human nature to sometimes become greedy when it comes to money.

lol yeah . money is money or money is everything . means we will do something even if it itsnt really appropriate to do at all but to some peope that are still good . they wont do such legit crimes like roberry , hold uping ,or other intended acts .

while this one is only a bug and we dont intend it to happen . it was like a kind of accident so i think its okay . it was like finding a money or a valueable stuff outside and its up to you if you return that stuff to its rightful owner or not but chances are it wont be returned again .

Depends on your mentality and situation.

How?
If you are honest at mind and loyal at heart, you'll definitely report it to the gambling website to let them fix it and not to get exploited by others.

If your days are bad and you are looking for money and your mentality about gambling websites be like - Hey, their house edge is already stealing homes from people, why not me exploit them fully till they exhaust and close their business, haha! Then you will go the other way and just destroy that casino.

Both of the statements above are hypothetical and can be compared with gamblers on a case-by-case basis.

Those two are very accurate (for me at least), I remember ending up in a similar scenario where the sportsbook paid my bet twice. My initial decision was to keep the money since I know they'll get it back in just one day and the winnings wasn't significant. After some time I had to do the right thing and report the mistake since they've been good to me overall and I really like their site.

It's very tempting to exploit the bug but if you are playing in a gambling site that has a good reputation and fair to gamblers, and it happens to be your favorite gambling site, of course, you don't want it to see go bankrupt because of what you are going to do I just tell them about the bug, and maybe they will thank you for this and give you some rewards, honest people should be rewarded.

I will report the bug to them so they can fix and there will be no problem with their site. I don't want to try to benefit from it because I am concern with my account if it gets a ban by them if I try to benefit from the bug. We don't need to do that, especially if the site is good enough in handling their members so they can give the best services to their members.

I think they will know easy who are cheating on their site, and I don't want to be that. It is better to tell them than risky our account because that means, we will lose our account and they will not allow us to play in their site.

As far as I'm concerned, I would feel bad.
Everyone who wins certainly feels good, but at the moment I would not be good,
You would definitely win those two shots! Congratulations

But think if you would win respect

Report it, I don't want my account be ban in a casino, and if I report it, maybe they'll give me some compensation for my honesty and concern of their website, I know everyone has their own action towards this, but for now, that's what I should do although it might be hard to decide when you are in the actual situation.

I don't think there will be any possible bans unless they discover the bug themselves and find you cheating them, or until you do it just once or twice with a bigger amount and take your profit and just leave the site as it is. By saying "leave", I meant leaving it forever. I know I told something else a few moments before and I'm not in support of shady activities like cheating anyone or any website, but I just gave my opinion on your account ban statement.

Definitely, it depends on the player's position at the time of discovering the bug. But if your battlecry is not to fall this potential bug to greedy ones, you will report it immediately to the gambling site. Who knows, it is not only you that have had discovered such loophole in the system? Because if it will continue, that site will be bankrupt soon and you didn't do anything about it. Your conscience will bug you for the rest of your life. Your choice!!!

One thing for sure, I will take advantage of this bug. It's not that I'm in need of money or greed but it's not my fault to discover this. That's unintentional. We are not a good samaritan here but we are gamblers risking money as always.

And besides, this bug will surely be known later on as many players will also discover this. They will take advantage too so just ride them. It's impossible that only a few of them will test the bug even how loyal they are on that site.

I want to be honest if I experience a bug like that I will try to recover all of my losses in doing gambling and report the bug afterwards and consider it as a reward for reporting to prevent more loss, The house has the majority of the wins so I guess its okay, I know everyone will do the same I hope it will not happens in reality.

As a gambler I would honestly take advantage to it and bet all the money that I have and afterwards might report it to the gambling site itself but this would near impossible to happen since most of the casino or sports betting platform always consider this kind of bugs and wouldn't be able to make a mistake for this since it would cost them so much money for it.

Also they always run a beta test/mode to see if there are some bugs, etc. and sometimes they would ask some participants to join the beta and give rewards if they find a bug.

And before reporting it to the site, we need confirmations so there are several bets that will be made as part of collecting proofs. Up to these people now if they will withdraw the earnings then report or leave the profit and let the site decide.

That's not a form of greed for me. It's human nature. After all, surely there will be rewards for reporting that bug.

In this case. S/he tried the bug if it is freely working and then, after in awhile once the bet the have been place s/he urgently reported it to the site owner and has been able to cancel all the bets that was been placed.

In my own point of view, i would definitely take adavantage of it rather than reporting the bug actually because money don't grow on trees that it is really a great opportunity for a every gambler to won a huge amount of profit thanks to that bug. But if i am not in need of money i think i would report the bug as soon as possible.

Let's face it rather than being an angel lol. Realtalk.

I believed 95% of people will try to take advantage of the bug before reporting it especially to those who encounter it for the first time since it's a rare case providing that site is already well-established. Of course, exploiting the bug for a long time might result in unusual behavior of the account since it was recorded. And before reporting it to the site, we need confirmations so there are several bets that will be made as part of collecting proofs. Up to these people now if they will withdraw the earnings then report or leave the profit and let the site decide.

That's not a form of greed for me. It's human nature. After all, surely there will be rewards for reporting that bug.
