But seriously guys I don't think the site gives a shit about the 3 bitcoins I "stole" from them. I don't even know if it was the receiving end's error, it could have been the site I was sending from (yet I would hope that site would not act in such a way, being widely used). I'm pretty sure if any of you found this you wouldn't have posted it on this forum period. I was just curious to know if anyone had encountered such a transaction error before.

Yes I have. I double clicked on a withdraw function, and was paid twice. I tested it with a smaller amount, and clicked on the button as many times as I could. I was sent 15 or 16 of the same amount, and for both instances my account was only debited the original transaction. I informed the site owner, and asked where I could send the coins back to and how to reproduce the result. He took the coins back and I wasn't awarded for it, and I'd do it again. But that's just me. My dad taught me that honesty isn't doing the right then when someone's watching, but doing the right thing when no one's there to watch you. Crypto currency makes it really easy for the eyes not to be on you.

I guess I could still report error, or even better, I could gamble back away the 3 btc I "stole" from the casino.

Say this site is a roulette wheel and you bet the 3 coins on 00 and win. You going to keep betting until you lose the 3 and anything from it? The right thing to do is contact the site and let them know about the issue and return the coins. That's the right thing. But may not be part of your moral fabric.

You guys are right. I did contact the site admin.I do hope the website gets the problem resolved, or if it wasn't the fault of the casino site then I really cannot say how it happened, either way I'm sure they won't mind me keeping the 3 btc.

Kudos on starting to do the right thing. Think of this: If you ask them if they would like you to send it back and how to do so and they provide you with info, then they needed it more than you. Otherwise, they might just tell you to keep it with their thanks. Either way, you build a bridge instead of burning one. Take it from someone who has made it a habit of swimming; life is easier with bridges.
