There is a very anxious time for every winning online poker player. This time occurs between winning and waiting for the casino to pay out the prize money.
Indeed, for one fortunate online gambler, who happened to win the video poker Royal Straight Flushes in three weeks, the wait included months of stress and anxiety as the casino took its time to fulfill its obligations.
The three flushes netted the player over $740, 000. Nevertheless, weeks later had only returned him $26,000 – even though he had requested more than once, his full payment.
It wasn’t that money was the issue. In fact the casino was a well established LSE listed online gambling group that operated the worlds largest poker card room.
Additionally, the player had to undertake three separate investigations by Starluck Online Casino. Following this, the casino continued to withhold payment, claiming the player's documents had not been received. However, the documents had been sent more than twice already.
The watershed came when the player took the matter to a mediator on the gaming message boards. Once the case was taken on the casino became amazingly reticent about the issue.
This is an almost unheard of case, according to the mediator – a highly experienced gambler himself.
It took months until the player was finally paid out his dues. Nevertheless, it left a sour taste amongst many who were following the progress of the case on the various message boards.
