    The player played a -EV game and you really do not have any die hard proof that it was Cory playing. Therefore by your standards that you set in the EZ case the book should pay the player all winnings and close the account.

    Has it been concluded that it is an -EV game with optimum strategy?

    Because HE WAS ALREADY BANNED.
    I'm convinced you are just playing the opposite role on purpose. You're saying things that don't even make common sense.

    Agree 100%. Unfortunately one of his biggest defenders to date has been Justin7. He allowed Cory to spam that EZ Street thread daily--all the while knowing that this guy was a no good cheat. J7 owes this forum an apology IMO.

    Why would a player be banned from a quality site for winning at a -EV game? HI said he hit two royals and told he was not welcome. Why would anyplace ban someone from playing a -EV game?

    She was playing a -EV game and you really have nothing more than a suspicion that it was Cory controlling the account.

    Unless you are suggesting that Cory is able to cheat the game (which would mean an apology to EZstreet is deserved) the book needs to pay the player and close the account.

    Heritage believes that Cory is able to beat the game. Heritage stated that Cory had beaten eight other sportsbook/casinos in Jacks or Better also. It doesn't really matter if Cory can or cannot beat JOB. The only relevant factor is that Heritage did not want Cory's casino action, and his account was banned.

    Check back after you have finished reading the report and conclusion. If after you have all the information and you still think all there is is no more than "suspicion", let me know. Definitely would want you on my jury if I ever go to trial.

    So you owe EZstreet an apology?

    if the book can reasonably prove it was Cory and they had booted him before...does he get his money back in your mind...regardless of -EV game they said he was not welcome and he chose to try again

    money was at risk. good books would have a) shut it down way earlier or b) pay out this would be the action at pin/greek

    Just a question - how can a player beat JOB when it has a less than 100% payout? I don't get it.

    What state do you want me to reside in? Give me 5 seconds and I will go from California to Boston.

    Outside of IP addresses (which can easily be changed) you have nothing more than suspicion.

    This is by no means disrespectful...if the paytable is -EV how is he able to beat the game? If he is accused of hacking the program then this is different but if he just beat a -EV paytable (with optimum play) how do they believe he can beat it without altering the program...

    If the book can prove it was Cory than sure they have that right.

    Proving that it was Cory who controlled the account is more complicated than getting Cory to go to Costa Rica to demonstrate his JoB skills

    Hang on

    My 64 year old mother is going to login to a site called "HeritageSports.eu"
    She is also going to deposit $30K to an online site which is not exactly easy to move money into given todays climate.
    She is going to join a sportsbook simply to use their casino...not even wager on sports.
    She is also going to hide her IP address because of course she is VERY VERY hip on online technology.
    and then she is going to lie about it many many times and continually change her story...

    and the kicker is....my mom just HAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPENS to be related to someone who was banned before..
    I'd love to hear how many posters moms have wagered online..and how many of their moms use a VPN.
    You're right..after thinking more about it the above makes a lot of sense.. I think you have swayed me

    Did you miss the part that SBR concluded that all deposited funds (minus transaction fees back to her) should be returned?

    If someone that is banned wins on a beard account after a review, all winnings SHOULD be confiscated if it's right in the rules of the Sportsbook.

    House had an advantage the whole time she was playing whether it was Cory, Justin7, Doyle Brunson, or Billy Walters............The house had an advantage the whole time the player was playing.

    As far as the argument..'weell they took his deposits'. That argument falls short because the book only accepted his deposit under false pretense. In my opinion they are not bound to honor the 'accept a bet, pay it'. The book should only return the last deposit imo.
    yes, since the deposits were all under false pretenses, no contract could have been formed between both parties. therefore, if no contract exist. the offer made by cory and the acceptance made by the book are invalid. the entire point in contract law is to find a equitable solution and not give one party a windfall. so giving the book 30,000 is not the correct resolution. in addition, punitive damages are not awarded in contract disputes.

    I find it laughable that some books have zero issues taking on losing players, but also have zero issues with not taking winner's action.

    The term 'recreational book' is simply deplorable, and I feel sorry for anybody that has to play at such a book.

    The most important lesson everyone should learn after this is the fact that sportsbooks only have the casino as a way to bring in money 24/7. The casino is not meant to pay out big winners and even at a top rated book it will likely mean the death of your account. The books will happily take on anyone willing to bring 500 or 1000 into the casino because they know they will likely win 80% of that.

    Because the guy obviously has an edge. Why can't people figure that out? I don't know what he's doing, but no casinos want his business and casino is like a license to print money.

    She didn't play a slot game, she signed up at an online sportsbook moving 30k there. Just conveniently ignore the rest of the stuff that you nor anyone else in this thread could reasonably answer. You dicksuckers that back the player no matter how much of a cheat he is would ruin the entire industry for the rest of us.

    lol, do you really think they would leave the game up if there was a way to exploit it and make it hit royals?
