I would rather a casino pay my wd fee as I have already paid 1 fee to deposit to their platform. It's almost like being taxed twice IMO. You have to pay a fee to play, you have to beat the house edge, and you have to pay to wd. Player is going to have to be extremely lucky to beat that long term.
Withdrawal fees aren’t really a big deal for me, I don’t see them as something that would seriously affect my chances of winning. But of course, if there’s a casino that doesn’t charge any withdrawal fees and still has a solid reputation, no doubt any gambler would pick that. It’s pretty much a no-brainer.
