So I have a question that has been bothering me for a while:

Is there anyone here or do you know anyone who has ever hit a Jackpot in an OC? I am not talking about Rapids / Minis, but about the first two levels Mega and Major. When I read online that someone has hit a jackpot again, it's mostly people from the UK, Finland, Sweden, Norway etc. So actually everyone in northern Europe above. I don't recall ever reading that anyone hit a jackpot from the DACH - area. Am I wrong? At least I don't know anything about Switzerland.

And then of course I also ask myself: Since online gaming is basically quite a gray area here, what happens if someone does land a jackpot? The casino could then theoretically claim that gaming is not allowed in our countries and keep the win? Not? Or can it even go so far that we are technically prevented from winning such a jackpot at all?

I would be really interested.

Regarding your first question, I can tell you that a GJ user here once hit the Jackpot, but did not get paid out because of some AGB violation

Nevertheless, I have often asked myself the question, ... why the majority of players who hit the jackpot come from the northern countries!

Vlt promises the cooler weather more luck... no idea.

To your question, what would happen with a jackpot win purely legally for a resident of Germany, I also have no answer... but would also interest me

A casino can always withhold the wins.
When you play you must always have in mind that you can not do anything legally.
If a casino says, no you do not get your win, you can not do anything.

That's intense...:-O Means but then that the casino has retained the money? Surely did not go back into the Jackpot? Think but as mentioned also makes a difference whether it is a pool jackpot or a local. A pool jackpot can not simply be retained. Furthermore, it is not money that the casino itself loses. And in addition, it is still massive "free advertising" for the OC, if they produce a multimillionaire.

But just imagine that one of us would now crack the Mega Moolah with 15 million and then this is not paid out for legal reasons... Not to be imagined... And you could probably not even take major action against it. Or assuming that it is paid out - how do you explain that to the tax office at the end of the year? In my opinion, the whole thing is on a knife edge. That's why I can well imagine that it's not even possible for us to win such a jackpot...

Putting the question another way:
What do you do when a casino has a max cashout per month? ^^

What I can tell you for sure:
Your house bank will contact you and ask where the money comes from.
YOU also have the obligation to inform the Bundesbank (from 12.500 euro)
Link: Duty to report
(1.1)
But should be uncomplicated
These do not inform also the tax office!

Well conceivable that you will be invited by the casino
to visit them on site and pick up the "check".

That's what I would do as a casino manager.

Before that, of course, everything is checked in detail by the casino.
This can take days/weeks.

Thanks for the link.
As far as I know, the MAX cashout guidelines do not apply to PoolJackpots, since the money is in a Pot at the slot manufacturer and the casino does not have to pay out the jackpot. With local jackpots it looks different, but even there I think I have read in the terms and conditions of the more serious OCs that jackpots are excluded from the MAX rule.

@upola
If this has really happened, quite bad and violent... Especially the point that the money has not flowed back into the pot and now the upper presumably treated themselves to a nice bonus. And everyone is just watching. Awesome!

Hi, you mean I can not withdraw my winnings?
