Finally you have broken the silence here in the forum. But you have messed it up to quote the posts in your reply. Anyway, you haven't mentioned the specific reason here to forfeit the winnings of OP. You have described the process of taking the actions instead of saying the exact reason here. I can see that you have provided some links of 'Arbitrage Betting' related discussions and articles. Did OP make any other violations except arbitrage betting? Was the decision taken by the Chips.gg system in the initial stage? Or was it suggested by the odds provider?Generally speaking, our betting partner identified patterns consistent with advantage/arbitrage play. To protect the integrity of the operator and ensure a level playing field for everyone, we applied wagering limits to the account, refunded the original deposit in full, and eventually closed the account in accordance with our Terms of Service. Even though we would like to avoid it, this approach mirrors industry best practices: without it, abusive players can simply use VPN, submit new or stolen KYC documents to open fresh accounts to repeat the behavior.
This doesn’t mirror industry standards. It’s something that a few crypto books enforce since no one can prove arbitrage play.
Stake and Sportsbet are a little smarter. If someone gets flagged for value play, they just do KYC and falsely accuse of multi-accounting. No one wants to pay sharp action.
