Jackpot Mystery: 6
There have certainly been a lot of questions that remain unanswered in the case
of Sylvia P. The parent company of the online casino that promised the
progressive jackpot winner her winnings of $4.1 million dollars, Playtech, has
not been very cooperative with providing Casinomeister with details regarding
the whole ordeal. The questions that are raised in this situation do not just
affect Sylvia P and her winnings these are very important questions that all
online casinos must ask themselves and players need to be aware of the terms and
conditions outlined by their online casino. It is not clear yet if it was
Playtech who allowed their progressive prize winning licensees to do whatever
they liked with the winnings as soon as they were paid in full to the online
casino responsible for the winning jackpot.
If the online casino operator is the one that has the ultimate decision in
deciding how the player will obtain their winnings then that is most certainly
not in the best interest of the player. There is way too much risk involved in a
situation like that where players like Sylvia are given the option of receiving
half of their winnings or small payments until the end of time. One huge
question that is raised by the Sylvia P. case is: where is the rest of the money
that she was not paid? There are a lot of unanswered questions as to who that
money belongs to. Does it belong to Playtech or the online casino itself,
Joyland? Or worse, could it possibly have gone to the online casino operator
themselves.
