    $53,000 Winner at Heroes Casino- will she get paid?

    Yep, there's another big winner at Heroes Casino. She played baccarat and blackjack. Heroes says she will have to wait for her money since they are in the process of a merger (into Southern Oasis Casino?)

    I'm surprised they even have a casino again. I wonder who the software provider is.

    I feel a bit sorry for the player (as I don't think it's very likely she'll get paid, though I could be wrong), but after everything that happened, why would anyone risk their luck on the casino there?

    It seems unlikely. There is a long-list of slow-pays, and Heroes has already stiffed casino winers.

    This is the price people pay for playing in flakey offshore books. Some people just never learn. If you want to play casino games, play in a casino close to where you live. Playing on line is just begging to get ripped off if you hit a big one. If you MUST be suicidal and play on line, at least play with a book that has a very high rating. Anything under A- should be immediatley dismissed, as SBR has one of the more generous rating systems that I have ever seen.

    If they pay a big winner like this they'll gain trust, take more deposits and they can slowpay those people. I think its smart to pay anything public fast.

    I think we need to give the new owners a chance to make things right.

    From what I've heard, the player so far isn't complaining about the $2,500 weekly checks she is receiving. Sooo......

    $2,500 weekly . Not a bad deal . If the player is from US sum of $53,000 at one shot would make the bells ringing .

    If we talking about jackpots where a percentage of the play comes from the player. They should be able to pay since it's the players money in play. I have read a couple of thread back then that casino's would slow pay them by $2000 a month or not paid them for a year until they took them to court. Casino's also make a offer to give you only 50 percent. If they going to take 50 percent all the time why play there and they know the player would take the 50 percent since they told them if they don't they wont get paid.

    I also read some where Oasis Casino is a stiff type of casino place. These casino's have the money to pay out since it's not their money.

    I've just seen that Heroes and Southernoasiscasino webpages are merging. I really feel better now. I think that this case will have a happy end.

    HELLO: I did NOT know about the problems with Heroes. I won $ 11,000.00 last summer and after giving them blood I RECEIVED MY MONEY. On the $ 53,000.00 I have yet to receive a dime. DO NOT KNOW anything about getting weekly checks.

    Sheshe, you won $53K as described in the OP? Given your experiences last summer, why did you keep playing with them?
