Our bonus system is set up so that playing red and black (even on French roulette) won't offer the player a +EV outcome. The 'gamble' or 'double' features do however make us vulnerable.

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.
Valid point, I'm sure other operators have bad terms also. We actually streamlined our casino SUB from the previous 2 (a slots only bonus and an all games bonus) in order to simplify the players experience. Obviously we should have re-visted the general conditions.

However, this was at the time not a perceived problem, rather a real major issue for us as operators. The term was added due to technical issues in our system which needed fixing with regards to the 'gamble' and 'double' features.
