But what is the reason the gambling site disabled your withdrawal? The casino gave no reason yet?
This is the gambling site announcement thread on this forum:
Chips.gg | CASINO & SPORTSBOOK | 200% DEPOSIT BONUS | 3000+ GAMESThis is their official account on this forum:
chipsggYou can send the official account PM and tell him what happened. Also you can post your accusation on their announcement thread.
Thanks, but I am unable to PM them due to their setting, and to answer your question, I was given no explanation on the ban and they just send a message on live chat with a bunch of sections of ToS which sound extremely vague.

Thank you for taking the time to make this post.
Firstly, you were not ignored. You were informed clearly of the terms on September, 11th 2024 -- days before your account was fully closed. After review of your betting history and the consideration of our bookmaker, the decision resulting in your account being limited and eventually closed was made. Furthermore, our evidence shows you were accessing the casino using the VPN service "HideMyAss".
You seemingly already know why your betting was restricted, as stated in your own email to us: "I placed a value bet ... The bookmaker simply failed to account for that." Arbitrage and/or value betting is a well known strategy, which is not allowed and considered to be abuse by bookmakers and casinos alike. These betting patterns and/or behaviors will get you the same result on any bookmaker or casino. Further evidence of this behavior would be your own screenshot showing you are on multiple books:

This very same topic has also been debated on this forum multiple times among other places.

I am going to dig into each and every point you made and how it's far from target.
I will firmly challenge the legitimacy of your claims regarding both the closure of my account and the accusation of arbitrage betting. Your assertions are not only unfounded but also a misinterpretation of the betting activities I engaged in on your platform.
1.
Clarification on Value Betting vs. Arbitrage The bet in question on the UAE Domestic T10 cricket match, where I backed the team ABX Rent a Car, was not arbitrage betting. It was a value bet based on the clear fact that Team BCIs key players were missing, and your bookmakers odds did not account for that. The odds offered at 1.7 were inaccurately high when, based on team conditions, they should have been closer to 1.2. Identifying and capitalizing on mispriced odds is a legitimate betting strategyvalue betting, not arbitrage. In no way did I place opposing bets on other outcomes to guarantee a profit, which is what arbitrage entails.
2.
Lack of Evidence for Arbitrage You reference arbitrage and suggest that my bet was part of such a strategy. To substantiate such an accusation, you would need clear proof that I placed bets on all possible outcomes across multiple bookmakers to ensure a guaranteed profit. Since you do not have access to my betting activities on other platforms, it is impossible for you to definitively prove this. You cannot rely on conjecture and isolated betting patterns on your platform alone to make such a serious accusation.
Additionally, the screenshot you refer to simply shows that I use multiple platforms, which is a common practice among experienced bettors. Using multiple bookmakers is not evidence of arbitrage; it is a smart way to access better odds and different markets.
3.
Transparency and Arbitrary Rule Enforcement Your terms and conditions do not clearly prohibit value betting, nor is there any explicit ban on placing bets based on accurate analysis of team conditions or market mispricing. It appears that you are attempting to retroactively enforce vague rules around betting patterns after your bookmaker's failure to correctly price the match. If your platform cannot handle bettors who take advantage of such legitimate opportunities, that is an issue with your odds-setting processnot my betting behavior. I strongly refute any suggestion that taking advantage of mispriced odds constitutes foul play.
4.
VPN UsageYouve also mentioned my use of a VPN service. Your terms do not explicitly ban VPN use, and as far as I am aware, using a VPN for privacy purposes does not violate any stated policies unless it is being used to circumvent geo-restrictions or other rules. Your failure to clearly state this in your terms adds further weight to the argument that your enforcement of these policies is arbitrary.
5.
Explanation on BanBelow I am mentioning the sections which you think I have violated.
Section 3.3: The Sportsbook platform reserves the right to refuse, restrict, cancel, or limit any bet.
Section 3.13: The Sportsbook platform reserves the right to suspend a client account without prior notice.
Section 13: If you breach any provision of these Terms and Conditions, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect such a breach, we reserve the right to not open, suspend, or close your Member Account, withhold payment of your winnings, and apply such funds to any damages due by you.
I have carefully reviewed your claim regarding my alleged violation of their terms and conditions, and I find your accusations entirely baseless. The sections they reference, 3.3. 3.13 and 13 do not point to any concrete violation on my part.
These clauses are nothing but vague, overreaching statements designed to give the operator full control to act as you see fit without justification. I have not breached any rules or terms, and your reliance on these sections is a clear attempt to deflect from your obligation to pay out what I rightfully won. There is no specific accusation or evidence of any wrongdoing on my partjust an arbitrary assertion that you can do whatever you wish under the guise of these catch-all clauses.
6.
Resolution Expectations I have complied with the rules set forth in your terms and conditions, and your claims of arbitrage and rule violations are both unsubstantiated and unfair. If this issue is not resolved promptly and transparently, I will escalate the matter to relevant gambling regulators. Furthermore, I will ensure that the community of subscribers I referred to your platform is fully informed of this situation and advise them accordingly.
I further DMed several of your reps over telegram and public chat but you guys decided to mute me.
I expect you to reconsider your stance and provide a fair and prompt resolution to this matter.
Best regards,
