RACE COMMENTARYStiffed Punters
If you were around the online gambling scene pretty much from it's inception, you'll know that Partygaming ran rigged games to get themselves off the ground when known as IGM (iglobamedia), and have pretty much admitted to such. Then there's the $5.3m Microgaming poker scandal, which is still kind of residing in lawyers limboland I believe.
Silvia P's Progressive Jackpot Payout Troubles
Now we have a lady (sylvia p) who won a 4,188,719.98 canadian dollars progressive fruit machine jackpot at the Playtech powered casino aptly named Joyland. She has not been paid the full amount.
To get paid out the full amount of her winnings, this lucky punter was supposed to wait about 40 years in total according to the Casinomeister's investigations, collecting the jackpot at $9k per month. Since then, William Hill have bought the operation amongst other loads of dross, and are refusing to pay on the grounds they bought the good part of this viper's nest of rogues, not their poison. & there's more, alot more, if you read on and on.
The interest per month on $4m placed in a 3.5% or so savers account would add up to about 9k a month anyhow. What a liberty all around, to all gamblers.
