Great in depth discussion on ‘normal play’.
But is it really abuse? The name of the activity is ‘gambling’. If I open one account and follow the casino T&C’s and hit a winning streak I could be wagering randomly or in a steady focused manner as you describe. If I ‘hang around’ just long enough to make the winnings cashable I am still up against the house edge and actually gambling.
Being short sighted, I think I have ‘beaten’ the casino and want to do it again elsewhere. The next time I may not be so lucky. The odds will catch up to me eventually and I will end up with a net loss. Unless there is something I do not know – that’s what the game is all about, isn’t it.
Aren’t the wagering requirements just a way for the game odds to ‘take back’ any short term wins.
Touche, rmeeuwsen… Very valid points here. There really seems to be a fine line. What is the “right”?
