So the "database" threat is BS.

Exactly, why make excuses for them?



They were criminally stupid, but it doesn't affect the casinos rogue response to his play. We are here to root out crooked casinos, not players who overreact when they get ripped off by crooked casinos.
Agreed, he broke no rule, and the fact that 49 other Playtech casinos had no problems with his style does tend to show that it was more about C1C objecting to him winning off the bonus, rather than a particular style of play.

He DOES admit to going through 49 Playtech casinos though, so I would think this is a player who plays to WIN, rather than to p1$$ their dollars away by donating more of a big hit than is necessary back to the casino.

Referring to him as an advantage player is not making an escuse for them, as they have no term that specifically excludes advantage players from playing, nor one that specifies what advantage play is (other than "we can make it up as we go along").
