Real_Bazzi: Successful GTA streamer launches casino streams

The streamer “Bazzi” has been enormously successful on Twitch in the past. He became famous for his GTA streams. In November 2021 he had over 13,000 viewers. Around two weeks ago the influencer launched his casino streams. He has meanwhile been blocked on Twitch because of this. In this article we will reveal why it is especially objectionable that “Bazzi” of all people has concluded his first casino deal.

It has long been no secret anymore that casino streamers with the appropriate coverage can earn a lot of money. We had for example reported in December 2021 that MontanaBlack had refused a casino deal of more than 12 million Euro. A personal acquaintance of MontanaBlack is the streamer “Bazzi”. Through his GTA RP streams he has become famous with his stage name “Marcel Heris” and meanwhile he is one of the most successful German streamers on Twitch. For a long time “Bazzi” has distanced himself from the casino streams and he warned his community of the dangers of games of chance. However now he seems to have had a change of heart. Recently he launched his own casino streams. He has also concluded his first casino deals.

“Real_Bazzi”: Formerly gambling addicted, now a casino streamer

It is not so long ago that his community had praised him for his clear position against gambling. In the past “Bazzi” had been gambling addicted for a period of around eight to ten years and as he himself stated he had lost everything. Therefore, for a long time he had warned his community about the dangers of gambling and he preferred to stream contents such as GTA, with which he had great success.

His fans had appreciated his honesty and authenticity. It was therefore even more surprising for the followers when they heard that “Bazzi” as a family man would now start doing casino streams himself.

Up till a short while ago his statements were completely different:

“Smoking is not as bad as casino. I am speaking as one who was a gambling addict for eight to ten years. I have destroyed my life. (…) I am now still carrying the consequences of my addiction. That is he worst thing that happened to me in life. (…).“

Just a few weeks ago we had reported on GambleJoe that the Brazilian national football player Neymar Jr. had started doing casino streams on Twitch. It seems that the attractively high-income prospects change people ‘s morals and their character.

“Casino is the worst thing that there is in Germany!“

In the streams which “Bazzi” had released on Twitch in the past, he did not only play for example GTA 5. Besides this he informed his community about the dangers of gambling and stated things like “Casino is the worst thing that there is in Germany“. He also reported about the recurring panic attacks and financial problems which resulted from his gambling addiction which lasted several years.

How did this change come about? That an influencer who as a former gambling addict was very vocal against gambling will now be doing casino streams? Most probably “Bazzi” had received an attractive casino deal, which he could not or did not want to refuse. In any case just recently he was streaming for the Casino Viggoslots together with orangemorange and Scurrows. Just last January we had reported about the fact that “orangemorange” had won 230,000 in a casino stream.

On the 7th. February we had released an article about the streamer Ron Bielecki who had been served with a penalty order of 480,000 Euro by the District Court Tiergarten for his casino-streams. In the past Bielecki had streamed in the same casino, in which “Bazzi” is now streaming.

The Youtuber AlphaKevin (183,000 subscribers) has just released a video about this same issue a few weeks ago. The video is nearly 15 minutes long and is called “Vom Casino Aufklärer zum Casino Streamer” (from a casino reconnaissance to a casino streamer).

Emigration to Malta – Twitch and Instagram Accounts blocked

As it was announced a short while ago, “Real_Bazzi” has meanwhile moved to Malta. He announced this proudly on his Instagram story and said that he was super happy with the decision to emigrate and that he “shits” on his haters. And this, even though he had to leave his girlfriend and his family in Germany. However, it was probably unexpected for him that a short while later both his Twitch and Instagram accounts were blocked.

He seems to have shared casino affiliate links on Twitch, among other things, and this infringes the Terms and Conditions of the platform. In December we had reported about a case in which a 19-year-old had lost 10,000 Euro in the online casino after watching casino streams and feeling motivated to play. However, “Bazzi” has already appealed the decision to block his Twitch and Instagram account.

Besides this there is speculation that the Twitch and Instagram accounts were blocked because during his gambling addiction phase “Bazzi“ had shown signs of suicidal thoughts. Those affected can make use of the freephone Service Hotline on 0800 111 0 111 TelefonSeelsorge® which is available 24 hrs, one can remain anonymous and get professional help.

After “Bazzi” was blocked on Twitch, on the 1st. March there was a stream on the Kick-Channel of Scurrows , where “Bazzi” was on a Discord Call. Here he gave way to his emotions and complained about the hatred against him on social networks and he also started crying. We have compiled and uploaded for our community a collage of the most important incidents in the stream:

In the stream, “Real_Bazzi” justifies his decision of accepting a casino deal and states:

“My line of thought is: Ey, “Bazzi” you have left many money in the casinos. It is now time to get that money back. (…) Recently I only notice: Many have sold themselves for that, many are streaming it. And I am sitting there, I am thankful of that which I have now, but somehow, I feel like an outsider.”

Conclusion

We can assume that “Bazzi” earns a five digit amount every month even without the casino streams. However in his recent streams he speaks of the “angst“, which among other things is arising from the demands of the Tax Department. For this reason, he has decided to launch his casino streams and to emigrate to Malta. We are excited to see, whether his “Twitch Career” can go on whilst his account is blocked. Currently it does not look like it. It is obvious that “Bazzi” will once again be taken down by his gambling addiction and have a problem with his gambling behaviour.
