casino says “irregular play” but i only did small blackjack bets then one big slot buy

so i’ve been grinding blackjack super low stakes, like mostly minimum bets, for a while just to clear my head after work. wasn’t chasing anything wild, just a few bucks here and there. then i hit this mood where i put the rest of my balance into a slot bonus buy, not really thinking i’d hit anything, but i actually did okay. now the casino’s saying my play was “irregular” and they’re stalling on the withdrawal.

i get the idea behind not wanting people to abuse promos, but i didn’t even use a bonus, just ran through my deposit. feels like they want to keep my money just cause the pattern wasn’t “normal” to them. has anyone else run into this sort of thing? did you actually get paid out or did they just keep dragging it?

Yeah lol one big buy after micro BJ is just bankroll stuff, not "irregular" imo. Sportsbooks pull the same goofy stall crap!!!

What gets me is “irregular” is always somehow clear enough to stop a cashout, never clear enough to point to an actual rule. In poker you can nit around for an hour then shove three hands, nobody calls the manager, variance cuts both ways and they hate that part

Switching from blackjack to a slot buy doesn't sound that unusual to me. Plenty of people change games depending on how they're feeling.

its usually the withdrawal that suddenly makes ur session look magical to them rn tbh ive had a crypto casino pull the same irregular play line after one feature buy hit and they did pay, but only after 5 days of stupid manual review crap

maybe, but one big buy after a nitty grind is exactly what they pounce on. poker swings look weirder tbh

Poker regs change sizing and games all the time, "irregular" is just a LAZY hold tag.
