Let's get the facts here.
1) She's underage
2) The casino didn't seem to care
3) She KNEW fully well that she shouldn't be gambling ANYWHERE. The rules were in the T&C. She tried (and succeeded for awhile) in circumventing these.
4) SHE ripped off the casino if you ask me. It was THEIR fault for not catching that she was only 19 beforehand. Therefore, she got to keep her previous winnings, and should NOT be paid one cent more than that, other than her current deposit(s) to "win" that $20k.
5) Don't give me crap about "Well, they have a sign that says 18+ on their website. Should they put a * next to it and have "18+ applies to every country besides USA"? Maybe so. But if anyone was to take anything online at face print *without* reading the fine print, they're just asking for trouble. Truth is, not every country is anal about gambling as is the USA. Sure you can go to war and DIE for your country (USA) at age 17 (with parent's permission), but yet you can't gamble till you're 21. But yet you can play the lottery when you're 18. How backwards and hypocritical is that?
