Abusive?

This argument came up a while back with Vegas Affiliates, also Microgaming. They denied cashouts because of "illegitimate play", and in some cases this seemed to have nothing to do with bonuses or ID issues. Most players were paid after pressure, but there has never been an explanation of what exactly was seen as abusive. The conclusion was that it was playing style alone - often involving big bets, which seems rather odd.
There is a possibility that a sophisticated progressive betting strategy was deemed abusive because by chance it worked more than it should and the casinos got worried.
Intertops were seen as OK, and provided you don't take a bonus you should be OK, as they will be unable to cite "bonus abuse" if you start playing Roulette with one. Most casinos do not like allowing Roulette with bonus money.
To ensure they don't use the "forbidden state" excuse, get confirmation in writing that they have no problem with accepting new players from New York.
Try your system with small stakes over a couple of sessions, and then withdraw a modest amount. This gets your first withdrawal out of the way, and you can then ensure the casino does not make awkward excuses about not being satisfied with documents. Once you are happy (Intertops state that first withdrawals take 14 days, the rest are quicker) then deposit again and try the system more fully.

As for records, Playcheck keeps 21 days of past play in intimate detail. After this, the playlog disappears. I cannot be sure if it goes altogether, or whether it is just archived. Since the data eventually gets used for the PWC figures I doubt it is lost completely. I have seen a player told that their play cannot be retrieved because they waited too long, but this could just have been an excuse from a casino that knew the playlog would show the player to have been right.
