casino says my blackjack session needs review because i kept same stake for hours

Played a long blackjack session online last night, kept my stake exactly the same, literally not changing my bet at all for hours. Got an email this morning saying my account is under review due to "unusual betting patterns" and they're holding my withdrawal. I checked their terms and don’t see anything about flat betting being an issue. I’m really careful about promos and T&Cs in general, so this is kind of irritating.

Not sure what to make of it. Has anyone else been flagged just for sticking to a single bet size? Did you end up getting paid out in the end? Wondering if it’s worth pushing back harder or just waiting this out. Any advice on how you guys handle this?

That’s wild lol. I’d definitely ask them what part of the betting pattern actually triggered the review.

That “what hour” bit, yes!!! Poker sites love acting like 2:13 am is a criminal mindset. I do one steady session and get crickets, naturally

I'd push, because this smells like stalling a payout, and I've had the same thing after a same-unit football Saturday, just hours of nothing then suddenly a "review" when I won, VERY neat that.

Flat betting by itself doesn't necessarily mean anything shady, so I'd ask them what specifically triggered the review rather than guessing. Gamdom or any casino, I'd keep your session history and withdrawal details, then request the review reason and expected timeframe in writing.

Nah, the part that always stinks is when a “review” magically shows up right after a promo, reload, cashback, whatever. Casinos looove acting like it’s your betting when really they’re re-checking bonus exposure and trying to slow-roll the cashout. And if it’s one of those places with glowing on-site “reviews” but no real fairness audit, that word means basically nothing. I’ve been paid after this, yeah, but only when support stopped doing the copy-paste circus. Flat stake is just the excuse they grabbed this week. K

Flat betting by itself doesn’t necessarily mean bonus abuse, but operators can still review accounts based on broader betting and transaction patterns. If they’re holding the withdrawal, I’d ask them to identify the specific rule or activity that triggered the review rather than just accepting “unusual betting patterns” as the explanation.

Bot bait, yeah, but the dumber tell is usually rhythm, not the number. I had a casino freeze me after a dead boring session because every click landed same cadence, like I was a poker HUD with a pulse. Interesting standard, real human until cashout time

A consistent betting pattern by itself doesn’t seem like an obvious reason

"unusual betting patterns" for flat betting is such casino nonsense. Roulette grinders do the same dull stake for hours and nobody blinks 🙄

Nah, the “same stake” line is usually just the excuse they settled on after the fact. I got this once after a dead boring roulette session, not blackjack, and the real fight wasn’t the bets at all, it was them suddenly wanting fresh id plus source-of-funds because i’d crossed some internal number nobody mentions up front. My mistake was waiting politely for 3 days. Push now, keep it in email, ask what exact document or trigger they’re reviewing. Otherwise they drift forever !!!
