What I don't understand about the anti money laundering policies of these crypto casinos is that they say if you deposit BTC you have to gamble it before withdrawing, which is a policy I understand having, but how does that stop money laundering?  Every casino has low risk games you can play without losing a lot of money.  I guess if you have a ton of money it might be an issue spending so much time gambling it all, but for most people I don't see how this deters money laundering.  As long as it works and makes regulators happy I guess...

Well you are not the only one asking this particular question but I came to conclusion that someone wants to use the casino for money laundering and funded the casino which huge amount of money the rate of which he will be task to gamble first before he withdraw will be higher and possible chance of the whole thing going sideways because I know some casino have a rule of wagering the actual amount deposit for a couple of times.
Many casinos that have experienced this kind of situation before are very strict as depositing and trying to cashout the money immediately or after a while without even playing a single bets. The actual account could be freeze and many casinos frown at this kind of method of trying to deceive the casino and put them into serious problem.

For a gamble to make a huge deposit in their account, that means that ultimately want to gamble with the money. If you then make the deposit and choose not to gamble but rather to without the money from the casino, that will be suspicious attempt which can be noticed by the casino team, freezing the account asking for a KYC to be done before any withdrawal could be made.
