Three Royals in a week nets player $736,407.00

LOL, great minds think alike - I was on the verge of bumping this one myself, for the same reason.

Given that the facts are true from what I've read here, the casino in question will deservingly lose credibility over this wheather they pay him or not. Obviously, most people will not hear about this story, so it'll only help them in the blind public's eye when they advertise that they've paid out a 3/4 million dollar winner......... but the stalling tactics, the silence ( which undoubtedly made this player go insane ), the investigations, the partial payment, and an agreement to pay the rest only after they've been put under pressure by some pretty powerful and influential people like Casinomeister and Cipher. This guy would NEVER have been paid if the big guns didn't step in for him. I'd bet my life on that. How bout buying these guys new cars when you get paid dude? I'd say you owe them at least that much gratitude.

2 Questions

1. Why is no one willing to name the casino?

2. WHERE CAN I BET THIS MUCH? I would love to be able to play $25 coin VP

I believe Millionaire Casino has $15 coin Video Poker if you want higher limit video poker, and they are very reputable.

sorry for being so dense. But did the player ever actually get the money in hand?

I read where they claimed the money had been sent and were waiting for the bank to confirm it had been received; but that was the end of it.

Congratulations if you did receive it btw.

 

[Casinomeister]

Still waiting for the word.

And I be waitin' for the Press Release

Thanks bb1webs.

Does anyone here know what a wire transfer for $736,407.00 dollars sounds like when it hits your account? KAH-CHING-KAH-CHING-KAH-CHING.

We can put a fork in this one because it's well done from the stand point of receiving verified funds. Can you believe the Casino actually had the balls to ask the Player to do a commercial? And better yet, can anybody guess what his reply was?

I'm waiting to hear just how much of what I'm able to reveal about the casino. But I'll post it as soon as I know what can be said.

Thanks again to Bryan and all of you who posted and even viewed this thread.

Have a good one.

Gonna go out on a limb and say he actually agreed to the commercial

Glad he got his $

Hi Winbig72:

Not even a chance.

Have a good one.

 

[jetset]

Good work Cipher and the player for his/her tenacity in hanging in there for what was due. It must have been extraordinarily stressful and I'm glad to see the payment came through at the end.

Now I'm going to be looking at every new casino commercial with a more critical eye!!! And, yes - waiting on that press release, too....

The inability at this stage to name the casino raises a lot of red flags. I will give this thread one more week. If it still remains unnamed, I will consider the whole thing a hoax.

 

[scrollock]

like I said; all things considered.

that's a chunk of money all at once and I imagine any casino would have taken a step back and been wondering if there was more to the win than meets the eye.

Yes they've been too long, and more importantly they've been too quiet but you must imagine that this probably had to reach the top to put the kind of funds together to meet the cash-in, ... while at the same time they're busting their hunches to make sure everything is jake (that the wins were totally honorable situations): because as nearly everyone here admits; it is a huge win of very unusual circumstances.

I would think it would involve contacting the creators of the software and all sorts of checkpoints that common sense would demand you go through... because this is not an ordinary big win. but rather 3 big wins at same casino inside a week... which makes things look extremely suspicious ...

so while this is all going on ... nobody takes the proper steps to insure the player they will get paid (basically staying in contact) and though I'm certainly no software expert I would bet there is a lot of stuff to check before the final okay is given to pay the player.

so a lot of time gets past.

I never said they deserved a ticker tape parade but come on... are you telling me then that you'd say you won't play at that casino if/after they've paid the player?

I would be thinking if they can weather this kind of hit and still be floating that they would be able to pay me anything I won.

heck its probably a casino I can't stand. But even if it is; I'll have to give them credit for coming thru in the end.

And to be more frank; the more of a "small-time" casino that it turns out to be; the more I'll be impressed WHEN they pay.

totally agree, any casino taking this kind of hit, would have dragged its feet till it knew everything was above board.

fact is, if this casino had no intention of ever paying they wouldn't have done no matter how much pressure.

we have seen way to many casinos happily give up its reputation in order to welch on winnings far smaller than this.

from my personal experience from when i worked i betting shops is that the largest biggest legitimate win i ever payed was for about 40k however the number of "winning" bets which had payouts in excess of this, which subsequently turned out to be fraudulent is so large that i have lost count.

a general rule thumb in the gaming industry is the larger the win, the more likely that something is not right.

i guess the only thing the casino didnt do right is keep the player adequatly informed.

for large wins i regularly had to keep players waiting from anything between a day and a week if they had a big win, i always explained why things had to be checked and always updated them on the status of their payment, i never had any complaints.

the longest wait was for the 40k win mentioned above, which the guy had won with a 10 p bet, after i paid him (which took a week), he more than happily tipped 500 despite the wait.

i think the casino should have phoned the guy and reassured him, that if his win was genuine then he would have no problems getting paid. in these situations the personal touch means a lot to a player.

I've been privy to the screenshots - it's no hoax.

Geeze, it's taking a while for this big announcement from the casino. What's the deal with that?

Seconded.

At the end of the day, it was posting at Casinomeister that resolved this. The forum members have the right to know which casino they were discussing.

 

[ergopro]

Anyone know what casino this was?

 

[jonevegas]

Waiting.....tap.....tap....tap

 

[soflat]

Waiting.....tap.....tap....tap

I guess they forgot about us once the money came thru.

There all sittin back in their LazyBoys laughing at us right now, I smell a conspiracy.

 

[Casinomeister]

Well, the casino isn't listed here. And it probably never will be, at least not in the "Accredited Casinos" section

 

[Slotmachine]

I'm happy to hear you say that. I mean, what the hell is the point of gambling if you don't know whether you're gonna get paid if you win?

When I hit my recent sizable (though nothing compared to this) win, the first thing that came to mind was: Will they pay me or will they find some reason not to pay? Of course, it's Cherry, it's a Meister accredited casino so I know they'll pay me, but it just goes to show that we players are constantly uneasy because of these incidents that happen all the time. We are right to be paranoid, but it degrades the enjoyment we get out of gambling. And casinos such as the one this thread's about are to blame.

Keep you list tight Meister, and in a few years you will be Zeus of online gambling - the casinos will crawl before you and the players will only sign up through you and with the advertising proceeds you can buy MGM

Think: You gamble for 10 years, lose about 100,000 total, then you finally hit a 100,000 win and - bang! They don't pay you! It sucks.

Anyway I'm glad he's getting paid. Kudos to Cipher and Bryan for defending us the players.

Cheers,
SM

Another week has gone by. No casino named yet. I am finished with this thread. A big hoax with screenshots as far as I am concerned.

What's your trip kingfile? It's up to Cipher whether he wants to name the casino or not. Nevertheless, I can vouch for what happened since I was privy to the correspondence between player and casino. Believe me - it happened.

And don't forget the possibility of a NDA because of the events surrounding it.

 

[caruso]

It's up to Cipher whether he wants to name the casino or not.

Since it was the posting at Casinomeister that resulted in the resolution, I consider it an extreme discourtesy to the Casinomeister members to not pass on this information. It's the members that make this site what it is. Without them, there would be no site, no resolution, and no...whatever.

Noted for future reference.
