Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?
This is defiantly something I'm not looking to do. Violating a known policy of any casino or sportsbook while I gamble on there site. Even when the case is of an unknown policy violation, its still hideously treated not to mention when it is known to you. There isn't no ignorance about an agreed to policy.
Knowing that it is prohibited and still going ahead to violate it is like telling the casino that your not interested in the wins in the event that you do win and they could as well block your account when that happens.
When a criteria requires you to use VPN, just search out for a casino out there that offers what is sort for and be at peace while gambling.

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?

It's clear as the sky, "not allowed" by the Terms of Service of the site, then why to insist on keeps on doing it?

What if they block an account and take our balance? Again, it's clear as the sky, we are the ones who should be blamed for breaking that simple Term. How come can we even defend our side if we really did that mistake on our part?

Aside from that, it's an intentional action by us. It's not an accident. There's no way we can save our ass from them if we break the ToS.

If you want to gamble, better use another site which allows the use of VPN, and you will not run out of those casinos which allow their players on this aspect.

That's right, the best thing to do is to gamble on casinos that allow the use of VPN, because normally there are some countries you would travel to where gambling is not allowed, just as the OP stated in his example, but if one needs to gamble, the best choice is to go by your idea instead of risking their main gambling account. Unless the account is not important to them because they can easily create another account.

I would not.
Breaking the ToS of any casino or service on the internet is simply a way to risk ones account and whatever amount of funds one has got deposited on it.

In my personal opinion, if someone cannot access a reliable casino from.their country, they must use a casino which allows VPNexplicitly and be up to date to their terms in case they decide to change the policies on the use of VPN.

In the worst case scenario, I suppose one can get and walk to the closest gambling house.  Huh

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?

They are likely going to take your balance and block your account for violation there is no exception and you cannot blame them because once you hit agreed and sign up you are obliged to follow the rules and requirements of the casino if you are intentionally going to violate or you there are instances that the terms will violate by your actions then ask their support so you will be guided, if you have doubt send a ticket to the support, so your account will still be in good standing.
I know there are exceptions to everything and casino have the flexibility on how they can implement their rules.

I know this is a bit controversial, but some casinos are looking the other way... when people are using VPNs. I know it might be legal in some instances, but you are still taking a risk by using it.

Online gambling is legal in my country, but sometimes I have to travel to a country where it is illegal. I then use a VPN to be able to access the site. This is one of the reasons why some casinos allow people to use VPNs..... but you are still taking a huge risk.

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?

When you are prohibited from doing something by the government, I think it should remain like that. Doing the opposite will only land you in trouble because if you are found guilty of such crime, you will be fine or jailed if the need be. You will not only lose your reputation, you might also lose all the money you have made from the gambling all been forfeit for the government pocket.

You should never use a VPN to access gambling platform, you made it clear that the ToS made it clear that it was bad thing to do, doing so will have you lose your account at long last and you will also lose the money in it; two things are involve with this, you will either lose to your government or the gambling platform.
A common sense to be done on which going opposite on whats been mandated or had been ruled out is never been that ideal for you to go along with it. We cant really able to afford out on putting
ourselves in harm specially if we are really that going against the government or on whatever platform that we are dealing with. Once a violation it would really be a violation and we do have terms
which needs to be followed and really trying out to avoid on committing errors and mistakes.

If VPN isnt allowed then its better not to risks on playing because we know on what are the possible consequences. We could really still having some other options on which we would be able
to play gambling without having to make use of VPN and its really that something you should do rather than on the opposite but if you are a type which is really that hard headed
then you could always be having the option on what you should really do.

even if the casino allows using a VPN or doesn't allow it, I still won't use a VPN just to be able to access certain gambling sites which in the end will only create problems or too high a risk. because if the ToS prohibits using a VPN but still does it and immediately gets a big win and wants to withdraw it but the team checks first and finds out that the user is using a VPN and confiscates the winnings, we will definitely be disappointed.

I'd rather avoid things that are prohibited in ToS than feel sorry for myself.

With the illustration  you gave which is simply because you traveled and your location changed was the only  reason that prompted  your use of the VPN which I don't consider a big deal as long as the casino doesn't have an issue with it.
But in cases where the use of vpn is strictly  prohibited  by the casino,  I don't think i will easily  dare to use the VPN  especially  if I'm not staying out for so long.

The little I know of VPN  and casino  is that gamblers are prohibited  from using VPN  and the reasons is to help fight against money laundering  through their platforms  and anyone using  vpn should be aware of its consequences.

This is the problem with some gamblers, they already knew that using VPN is prohibited and when they caught they will start to rant online and spread that the site is a scam and freeze their balance. Well, what you can expect for a more greedy gambler? I personally don’t want to experience a stress like this so if its not allowed then I will not do it at all, there’s a lot of alternative site choose the best site where you can play without violating their ToS.
This is the usual scenario, the site will never tolerate that and many are being caught already.
Most of the site didn’t allow VPN as it trigger the alarm of a possible fraud money, so if you get caught don’t expect for your funds to be recover even if you provided necessary documents because its their rules and once you violate it you’ll face your consequences. I will not try this as well, gambling is fun and you can enjoy it more if you follow their terms.

It will just give the casino a reason to confiscate the funds they have and then these gamblers have the gut to complain scam when they know they have violated TOS.

It may be a good reason to try web3 casinos when you are in a country that made gambling illegal. Taking the risk out completely if you don't want the casino to look into your account.

A conflict would arise so I won't be planning to do so. Tos seems to be a noisy topic recently and that probably players being worried that they might lose their funds if they won't follow each and every statement in ToS. But going bavk with VPN, even if it is not included to the platform's rules, I'd still avoid using such tweak simply because I don't want to add more risk to my gambling activity. There are times VPNs are unstable and since there are gambling sites in my country which is accessible, why would I even go for a higher risk? Even if there's an exclusive bonus or promotion, I think it won't be worth the risk especially if you aren't that knowledgeable of how VPN works.

You already answered your own question in a way. If you are worried that using a VPN will cause your account to be blocked, it is better not to use one in the first place. Why risk it if it's against their Terms of Service?

And if it does come to that point, I don't see many options available to you. Perhaps you could try proving that you are not from a banned country and that you used a VPN for legitimate reasons, but ultimately, you would be at their mercy since you violated their terms of service.

^In the first place at least you know the possible outcomes and probably some casinos may tolerate VPN usage, but most explicitly state in their Terms of Service (ToS) that it is not allowed. If you choose to use a VPN against their ToS and they discover it, at least you are already aware of it already. But I think the best thing that you can do is to consult their team while you are in a place that is against their jurisdiction, if they don't allow it, it should be better to follow them than to hold and lose your account.

I guess you can't do anything about it if they take your balance because you know and they know that you have used a VPN and that you have violated their ToS. So the best thing thing to do when you travel to a country wherein gambling is illegal is just to stop your gambling habits for sometime because you know what the consequences will be if you insist on playing on your favorite casinos but then again you try to circumvent everything with a used of VPN.

And for sure we have seen countless horror stories here in the community, wherein a certain player with thousands of dollars in their account cannot withdraw their winnings because as much as they know that using VPN is illegal, they still proceed and now the unthinkable happens to them. So better be safe that sorry.

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?

Is there any recent case of an account being blocked due to the gambler use of VPN?

If a gambler fails to read the ToS or follows the instructions that were written down by the casino then he/seh should be ready to face the consequences that follows but most times when such a user comes to the forum to complain or open a scam accusation thread it is lways the casino that is at fault even when for instance they use VPN when the use of VPNs are prohibited by the casino.

I know most people that falls under this catergory would claim that they had to use it due to the fact that their counttry is not supported by the casino which is still not reasonable enough, IMO. If the casino does not support your country then look for the one that does, you shouldn't for any reason risk your hard earned money.

Now, the question is.... Will you still use a VPN, if it is not allowed by the ToS on the site. What will you do if they "block" your account and take your balance?

Lately and even in the past, there have been so many scam accusations on the reputation board, mainly from gamblers from whom some casinos have ceased funds. Like the last thread I read, the user's account got frozen because of some ToS violation. So, if using a VPN is really against the policy of a casino, then I see it as a very risky thing to do when users decide to neglect the rules. Whoever takes such a risk should make the decision to accept every consequence that comes along with it.

But for me to take such a risk, either I will just be sending in a small fund to my account so that if they block it, I will not cry for my lust funds, but If make a large win, which will just make me regret my actions. If customer support can't help me, then I don't have any other option but to let go.

If it is against their ToS, then, don't take the risk especially if you are taking care of your account not to encounter any trouble.
The terms are implemented as a common ground for both the owner and the players. So better abide these rules to avoid any issue.
I won't use VPN on this regard, because you are subjecting yourself to scrutiny and may possibly trigger for your account to be flagged down.
If you want to gamble, better use another site which allows the use of VPN, and you will not run out of those casinos which allow their players on this aspect.

It's already explicitly stated that it is not allowed. I would not dare risk it, and would just abide by the rules. Honestly, it's better for me to not play for a few days or weeks at most rather than get myself banned for the most obvious reason. It's not worth it to continue playing with a VPN even if I know the repercussions directly. There's literally no guarantee that I will win in my gambling session anyways, nor are there any incentive in me playing against the rules so why would I do it?

I'd only break that rule with VPN if I am sure that I will get something big on that day and I have the guts to never look back on the same platform that I will get banned on.
