Yes they did selectively apply rules to her, but only when they found out she was underage.

Nevertheless, I just don't see the basis for adopting some, but not all, of a particular state or country's anti-gambing statues. In other words, if a casino is saying they are obligated to respect Nevada's underage law, then to be consistent they would also have to follow Nevada's general ban on online gambing. |

Even more reason to pay the gambler.
All this industry stuff is for the casino operators. That ain't my concern. If they don't like the job, don't do it.

I think we're all beating a dead horse here. Can we all just agree to disagree?

Also, since internet gambling is illegal in the US, no US court would hear a lawsuit over an activity that was illegal in the first place. Finally, even if you did somehow get a court to rule in your favor, you wouldn't be able to collect on any judgment, unless the casino had assets that you could seize. Since the casinos are careful not to keep assets in the US, that would be impossible. The casino industry runs on trust. The only they have to fear is that people will find out that their money isn't safe with them, and that new players won't keep depositing. Even though Autumn has no effective recourse, at least now other players have been warned. BellaVegas was happy to advertise for 18 year-olds. They were happy to take Autumn's money, even after she told them she was 19. They're happy to take Americans' money, even though - according to their Terms and Conditions - no American is eligible to play there. They only became unhappy when Autumn won money at their casino. What's to stop them from becoming unhappy if you or I win money there? Apparently, nothing. "Nicky's methods of betting weren't scientific, but they worked. When he won, he collected. When he lost, he told the bookies to go f... themselves. I mean, what were they going to do, muscle Nicky? Nicky was the muscle." --Robert Deniro, Casino |
