chuchu59 - the reference to even money wagering in the (now removed term) referred only to the 'gamble' or 'double' feature, as these were true even money bets. We don't consider betting on Black and Red or Odd and Even to be even money bets.

If anyone has any further concerns, please feel free to address them either in this thread or by email at jody@purple-lounge.com

I am shocked that using the "gamble" feature was ever considered "abusive", yet at the same time you were happy to allow the clearly "abusive" tactic of wagering both Red and Black on roulette to clear WR. With MG French roulette at standard bonus rules, this is a loophole that could allow a pretty much guaranteed +EV outcome on any bonus (except the slots only bonus, of course).

It may have scared off a few players, who would have seen it and just not played, and only now has a player seen it, and questioned it here rather than just not playing, and this seems to have revealed it was never used, and probably not even necessary, yet no-one bothered to review the terms from time to time to review then need for it.

What other unnecessary and obsolete terms are still there, perhaps as a "short term measure" initially, but remain only because no review has taken place.

What about other casinos, are they scaring off players with bad terms they don't even need, but initially threw together because of some perceived short term problem.
