Casinos not obliged to pay punters’ winnings

The case before Judge Francis Comerford in the Circuit Civil Court involved a man who won more than €15,000 over two nights at the D1 Casino in Dublin, but who alleged he had received only some of the winnings.
Sayed Mirwais, a married father of two with an address at St Mary’s Place, Phibsborough in Dublin, told the court he won the money after placing numerous bets on an automated roulette machine.
