You mean they have "if you win you actually lose" in their fine print?

He's just including his bet in the total payout. But you are right, he didn't "win" that much.

Sounds a lot like Nicky Santoro's system from the movie, Casino:
[quote]he had a fool-proof scheme, all right. It wasn't very scientific but it worked. When he won, he collected. When he lost, he told the bookies to go frick themselves. What were they gonna do? Muscle Nicky? Nicky was the muscle.

Some of the fine print on those sports books are that for high odds payouts they will only pay up to like $10000 or $20000. It’s a scam.
100% no idea what basis they’re not paying him out on
ETA and as far as odds it couldn’t be more straightforward ticket and hardly lucky at all. It was just Celtics to win NBA championship +220 or something. He bet around $150k and total payout was $500k

It was +250. Not exactly “long odds payout”.
Getting paid for the Celtics winning wouldn’t have been long odds. Getting paid should the Mavs have upset them? That’s different, especially considering they surged late to go from the play in to a 5th seed.

I know this asking a lot considering the OP but how about some context?

Gambling is not supposed to be fair. That’s the point.

I'd like to see him as the new owner of that casino.

Money back plus winnings.

It’s an Indian casino? Yeah dude is screwed. They play by their own rules.

Almost like you shouldn’t go to casinos. Gambling is trashy.
