Because, they lose money.
Who wants to lose money?

They want people to lose money so it shouldn't be that way.

inb4 "people should ban casinos if they win so much money as well".

>>2881
I don't understand what you're saying.
You lose - They win
If you don't know that, you're in the wrong board.

Are you underage?

In order to run a profit the casino needs to keep a positive expected value across all games.

When casinos ban people it tends to be for aggressive card counting, and not just knowing some of the probabilities involved. Like, keeping in your head the odds of losing a game of cards based upon your hand and what's on the table, in Texas Hold 'em, won't have a tremendous impact on the expected value of the game. However, conspiring with other players to keep track of all the cards in play, and other things, overwhelmingly tip the odds in the players favor.

Basically the videogame equivalent is each casino (game) has its own set of house rules and enforcers (admins), who may or may not know what cheating looks like. At shitty casinos, they might ban good players because they themselves don't understand the game. At good casinos, though, a group of good players might get together and clan stack matches, fuck a whole bunch of shit up, and still complain that they did nothing wrong, even though they were insanely the odds of the game in their favor.

Casino's profit from retards who think they can win and get out.
I work in support for one of the online casinos. Trust me, you can't win. As soon as you make a profit, we know and do everything we can to find a reason not to pay you.
