ill try and keep this short-
I was offered a really sweet deal to play in a casino

3k up front to start month - predicated upon a coin in of 360 k for the month prior
250 additional each week for weekly incentive
and susequently 1000 for every 160k coin in during the month of play
there were mistake made obviously and the deal changed c couple of times before becoming the one listed above
this went on for 9 months at which point i was banned from the casino in question - in florida
my question is - I know I am not entitled to future offers however the 3k monthly that should be added for feb based on 360 k in for january was achieved prior to me being banned- are they still obligated to pay it which they are claiming they are not -
WIZARD- CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE???
feel free to pm me for more info

I've never (EVER) seen one of these deals that wasn't subject to change or cancellation at any time for any reason at the promoter's sole discretion.

Was the deal in writing? You may have a valid contract even if it's not. See an attorney.

yes i have it in writing, the argument they are saying is that since I am banned its all null and void which I have no problem with but dont they have to give me what I earned?

Why were you banned and what casino was it? At least indicate if it was tribal, pari-mutuel, or ocean.

it started as 3k monthly based on 360k coin in for the prior month, then i was going over 360k so they offered me 1k extra for every 120k coin in after that, somehow the translation got lost and I got 3k beginbning of month then 1k every 120k coin in on top, just trying to get the 3k for feb that was based on 360k coin in for januaury

Is that part in writing too, or did they make it up? If you agreed to those terms -- that if you're banned, they can void all of your past rewards -- then you're probably out of luck. If you didn't agree to those terms, see an attorney.

I am an attorney in Las Vegas, based on the facts provided you probably have a breach of contract claim against the casino, but you need to show an attorney the contract and let him review it and determine whether you have a claim.

Further, were you receiving cash based on your play or was this promotional money? If cash, I definitely think you have a claim. If it is promotional money/chips/credits, then they could award it to you, but you wouldn't be able to use it.
