Oh yea that’s been super common in the gambling industry for a while. For casino games, losers will get comped a night, maybe a weekend even to encourage them back. In betting, losers get incentivized back into the habit by receiving “free play” or “free bets.” It’s all based on their internal LTV calculations and shit it’s nuts.
It’s already beyond fucked up but imagine how infuriating it is for anyone with a clue that does this. If u show the slightest indication that u possess >= 1 functioning brain cell ur done. Eg my max bet at Pointsbet was limited to a couple bucks fairly quickly (my account was literally negative too lol! Altho there were some pretty obvious tells: brand new American account immediately starts exclusively betting obscure stuff like Bulgarian basketball) and similarly at draftkings (tho they were more lenient).
It’s pretty trivial to churn out a 7-12% ROI as side income until it isn’t! I get it but that obviously doesn’t make it any better. It’s so predatory and coupled with how conservative they r about anyone that might win it’s just disgusting
