Users draw parallels between online platforms or games and casinos, emphasizing how the 'house' bans exploits, advantage plays, or consistent winners to ensure profitability, much like real-world casinos with card counting or edge sorting.

This also applies to real world casinos :)
This is a bit like saying cheaters are discouraged at casinos. In fact they are banned.
Sounds like playing in a casino. They're cool with it until you win too much.
It's very similiar to running a casino
You're in their casino, you play by their rules. The house always wins.
Getting your credit card out is only a "game mechanic" in dodgy casinos. There's a reason gambling is regulated.
Yep, indeed I am. The same way I think casinos don't mind if you try to count cards at blackjack.
This could be the next generation of casino games.. the house always wins.
Yup. Sounds about right.Read about Phil Ivey, who used a similar "hack" to advantage play in Baccarat.Casinos really can't have it both ways. If they want to make money from people gambling money, they need to assume the risk of losing the gamble through their own incompetence.If they released a table game with a negative house edge (due to some mathematical miscalculation) and most of the people who played it won money, they would figure out their mistake, pull the game
Except for the "casino" viewpoint ?
