What Would You Do If An Online Casino Accidentally Paid You?

What would you do if you woke up one day to find that you are a millionaire, but not because you actually won something but rather because an online casino had made a simple mistake?

A player under the alias “the-requin34” went through the same dilemma last week at Winamax Poker. The site accidentally paid out €1,546,522.16 into the players account.

If you found yourself in the same situation what would you do? Would you give the money back or would you try everything in your power to hold on to the money? The latter option might be true for most players because everyone wants to become an instant millionaire. The question here is, what did “the-requin34” do with the money.

Did the Player Give The Money Back To The Online Casino?

This “lucky player” decided to use €3,000 of the money on Poker. He then decided to make a withdrawal of €9,000. When the casino eventually realised the mistake they had made, they asked the player to return the €9,000 which he withdrew. According to PokerNews.fr, the player has since refused to pay back the money, no surprises there.

Would you be noble enough to return the money?
