Hi3-22

This is a follow up on your most recent inquiry, involving three wagers placed without your confirming
them...

The timing of the wagers in question are:


15:01:57
15:02:17
15:07:21
Your account also shows some potential login issues around the same time... that you logged in at:
15:01:43
15:02:08
15:07:11

I have forwarded a request to our technical team to have the logs pulled to determine what may have
occurred. Interpretation of these logs may be required from external sources which can take some
time. I will provide you with an update when I receive a response.

I apologize for the delay and thank you again for your patience.

I wanted to keep you informed regarding your inquiry into the three matching wagers recorded in your

We are still waiting for the logs to be pulled for the time in question. Once received, they will be
provided to our backoffice specialists and our eSports specialists for analysis.

I understand that you would like to have this issue resolved quickly, but unfortunately, this is a detailed
process and we need to ensure it is investigated thoroughly. I appreciate your continued patience
regarding this matter.

analysts. We are still expecting the logs for September 11. As explained earlier, this process can take
some time and we ask you for your continued patience while continue our investigation. No further
action can be taken on this matter until all data has been reviewed.

receiving the game logs. While the issue continues to be investigated to determine the cause of the
problem you encountered on September 2nd, it has been agreed to refund $200 to your account for the

Body:
Hjs.22

I have looked into your token issue.

From the notes on your case file, you reported that you had been issued a $50 freebet token and that
after trying to use it all at once, it was unsuccessful... and that when you went back to use it, it had
expired.

I reviewed your account activity. The $50 freebet token was issued to you on September 11 at 10:08:34.
$25 of this token was redeemed on September 17 at 13:26:22 on wager 0/0344835/0000590. The
remaining $25 was not redeemed and expired on September 18 at 10:08:34. The promotional
conditions for this promotion do state that the token will expire 7 days after being issued.

I have posted a $25 sports token to your PlayNow account as a one-time goodwill gesture. Please note,
this token will expire in 7 days. To avoid this in the future, you can find reference to the expiration date
of the promotion by clicking on the Contest Conditions which are provided for each promotion.

In response to your request for an update regarding your "missing funds" inquiry...

You reported that our system accepted 3 identical wagers of $100 each without your completing the
confirmation process (or being logged into your account) on September 2, at 15:01:57,15:02:17 and
15:07:21. $200 was already posted to your PlayNow account on September 11 at 10:52:17 as
reimbursement for the 'duplicated' wagers. You began putting these funds into play at 10:54:34.

We are still investigating what occurred on September 2 between 15:00 and 15:10, when the three
wagers were recorded, as well as what you reported having occurred during the morning of September
14 of 22
bele
Just as a reminder, you have been reimbursed for two of the three identical $100 sports wagers that
were recorded in your PlayNow account on September 2nd, as it was understood that it had not been
your intent to place duplicate wagers. But before we can conclude the issue as reported, the logs need
to be reviewed. These should show your account status at the time the wagers were placed, and should
display your actions while logged into your account.

Until the technical team has fully reviewed this data, we are unable to determine whether or not the
system performed in a manner other than what is intended by allowing a player to place a bet without
logging in.

I have forwarded a reminder the technical team to follow up with log extraction and review. Updates on
this request do show that there has been some difficulty in accessing the logs which appears to be the
cause of the delay.

It has been noted that to date, no other players have reported this issue.

Regarding your request to have the Oct 11 Freebet Promo token issued. Unfortunately, we are unable
to make an exception and issue you tokens for this promotion. It is a player's responsibility to review
available promotions and register for them on the PlayNow.com website. For sports promotions, login
to your account, click 'sports' and 'Promotions'. Sports promotions that are available to you will be
displayed. For promotion details, such as information on when a Freebet or other promotion expires,
click on 'Contest Conditions'.

I do appreciate your continued patience regarding this issue. And I apologize for any inconvenience this
delay has caused.

I've received a response from our eGaming Software Developers regarding the issue you reported in
September. After gaining access to the game logs, they have determined what happened in your
account on September 2 and 11.

Per their response, the issue was caused by a cookie not being cleared when you logged out. During
subsequent placement attempts this cookie was used to authenticate the user.

A fix is currently being reviewed and tested.

In review of your initial inquiries....

On September 2, you reported that the system accepted 3 identical $100 sports wagers without your
having logged into your account. You were refunded two of the three wagers on September 11 at
10:52:17 am. The refund was in the form of a $200 manual adjustment. We were waiting for the
outcome of the review of the game logs before any further reimbursement could be considered. Now
that the review is complete, I have posted an additional $100 manual adjustment to your PlayNow
account as a refund of the third September 2nd wager.

On September 11, you reported that the system accepted another wager without your having logged in.
This wager was in the amount of $55. I have now posted a $55 manual adjustment to your PlayNow
account as a refund of the September 11th wager.

Reviewed case. Discussed at length with Investigator. A number of issues have been raised with this case
including players initial motivation to making bets and the length of time to get logs readable. While
Writer does not necessarily agree with reimbursing player as he appears to be actively seeking loopholes
it is noted that he rang CS within minutes of making bets,while they were still live, and they could
perhaps have been cancelled by BCLC. In fairness to the player he would not be aware if they were
winning or losing bets when he made that call. This is an older case when eSports was very new and
processes have been improved since that time. It has been discussed with Investigators that in these
sort of matters involving substantial reimbursement that it be discussed with myself first before
compensation is given. eSports staff have been notified of conclusion of case. Writer tested
PlayNow.com by attempting to make bet and this issue appears to have been fixed. This matter should
be reported on the monthly report to GPEB and a copy of report has been emailed to Noah

Hi Guys, just wanted to bring this case to your attention. It has been resolved however a few issues were
raised during the process. Player is8 22

Below is Rob STRATFORDS Case Summary followed by mine at the end. Although it is a one off it does
highlight the time it took to get logs etc considering player contacted BCLC on Sept 2nd when bets were
made. I am also wondering if an IDR should be sent or just included on the monthly change report

$100 - O/0344835/0000323 -15:07:21
-8-22 reported this issue at 15:10:00 - minutes after the wagers were recorded. (Player did not
wait for events to finish or near completion before reporting.)
- Investigator determined thats-22 had not intended to make all 3 wagers and therefore
reimbursed player for 2 of the 3 wagers. A $200 manual adjustment was posted in8-22 account
on ll-Sep-2012 at 10:52:17 to reimburse for wagers O/344835/0000322 and 0/344835/0000323.

Caller advised that he was placing a sports wager and he was asked over and over to log in. A message
comes up stating "it looks like you haven't logged in." Caller advised that our system has made
purchases without him being logged in.
Caller then looked at account and noticed that the system has purchased 3 of the same sports wagers
when player only wanted one for $100.

Caller advised that he has now $300 missing on wagers that he did not place. He advised this is not the
first time our system has taken funds from his account and purchased wagers.
CSR provide case number and advised he will be contacted by LI.

Caller advised that he will probably lose the $300 as it wont be put back right away and advised that it
usually takes a 6-7 days to get a response.

Thank You

1.) Freebet token expired before player could use it.
2.) Wanted an update on his "missing funds" issue.

Regarding item 1.)


- Investigator reviewed PlayNow account8-22 earned a $50 freebet token, posted to his
PN account on 11-Sep. s 22 redeemed $25 of the token on 17-Sep at 13:26:22. The remaining $25
expired on 18-Sep. The Contest Conditions, posted on the PlayNow.com site stated that the token
would expire within 7 days.
-si7(i)(d) s.22 account to replace the
tokens he did earn but had not used. It is noted thats'22 placed numerous sports wagers while
the token was in his possession, so Investigator felt the goodwill gesture was warranted.

Regarding item 2.)


- The logs for September 2 have just been provided through RITM47350. (Saved under
Related Content.) Investigator will attach them to OpenBet JIRA BCL-331 for review. Currently OpenBet
JIRA is unavailable to investigator, but support is in the process of re-establishing access.
- The logs for September 11 (related issue) have not yet been provided. Both must be reviewed before
any conclusion can be made.

- Email sent tos-22 , informing him that he has been issued $25 in sports tokens as a one-time
goodwill gesture and informed that they expire in 7 days. Also provided information that expiration
dates can be located in the Contest Conditions on the PlayNow site.
- Email also included an update ons-22 other issue. He has been reminded that $200 has already
been posted to his PlayNow account as reimbursement for the two 'duplicate' wagers that were
recorded in his account on 02-Sep. He has been informed that the logs have been pulled for 02-Sep, but
that we still require the logs for 11-Sep and that all data must be reviewed by the backoffice software
analysts before we can complete our investigation. s-22 has been asked again for his continued
patience while this matter is investigated, but that this investigation may take time.

_s. 22 reported to CS that he was able to place a sports wager without logging into his PN account

at approx 10:54 am on 11-Sep.


-8-22 reported that he logged into his PlayNow account at 9:37 am and did not log out. He left the
screen open. Then at 10:54 am, he returned to the screen and completed a sports wager, which was
recorded in OpenBet without the player being required to login.
- Review of OpenBet shows that8-22 logged in at 9:37:56, and logged out at 9:59:53. (Logged out,
not timed out). OpenBet also shows player logged in at 10:54:32 and the wager was recorded at
10:54:34. This is consistent with a player logging out, then when completing a wager, being directed to
the login page to provide login and password before completing the wager.

So it would appear that players intending to bet on the Over/Under 1.5 Runs for the 1st inning, may choose the 2

Total Runs in 1st Inning (Over/Under 1.5) <~ and it/s this item that is sitting where the Over/Under 1.5 Runs 4th Innings
should be. So if a player is looking to bet the over/under for the 1st inning, they may be picking this one. And because
this is where we would expect to find Over/Under 1.5 Runs 4th Innings, I'm thinking that OpenBet \s interpreting it as
such.

Again, if I misunderstood, my apologies.

Ok-so I think we figured this issue out - at least partly. There were some "translation" issues in Openbet, which were
displaying the "3rd Inning Total Runs" as the "4th Inning Total Runs" - which is now fixed.

Please let me know if you receive any further reports of this issue.

Hi James,

You may already be aware of this one, but I'm forwarding it to you nonetheless. I apologize if it's a repeat...

Salesforcecases15(1)(l)

He claims that on 04-Aug, he made a 4-leg parlay betting on MLB - the over/under of 1.5 runs scored in the first
inning. But OpenBet recorded it as for the 4' inning. The wager was actually duplicated, which shows the same wager
selections at the same odds, but for a different amount. - Curious.

0/0398753/0000243
0/0398753/0000244

Images of the wagers as they appear in OpenBet are attached.

I tried to replicate this and found that on the PlayNow site, the over/under options are represented for 1st inning
through'9th, except for the 4th inning.... it's replaced by another 1st Inning wager option, just worded a little differently.

See screen shot, below. Left column, 5th wager from the bottom....

Hi James,

Just an FYI...

The player that this error affected had wagered a total of $2.94 to win $7.29. I'll be posting $7.29 to the player's
account.

If you think we should actually do this as a manual adjustment to the affected wagers directly, we can make those
corrections next week.

Thanks again for your help,

Hi James,

Sorry, but I just want to make sure I understand...

This case doesn't actually involve any mention of the 3rd inning total runs field. The player intended to wager total runs
(over/under) for 1st inning. But we recorded it as 4th inning, in the image below, you can see what is being displayed on
PlayNow.com to the players: where it should read "Over/Under 1.5 Runs 4th innings" it actually reads "Total Runs in 1st
inning (Over/Under 1.5)".

in fact, it would appear that the Over/Under Runs bet for the first inning is listed twice, but worded differently:
Over/Under 1.5 Runs 1st Innings

Our investigation found that the wager offered on the playnow site for selecting the over/under 1.5
Runs for 1st inning was incorrectly displayed in place of where the same wager for the 4th inning should
have been.

This error has since been corrected on the PlayNow.com site.

As such, I have confirmed that the two wagers you made involving this particular event should have
been wins of $4.31 and $2.98. I have now posted these amounts into your PlayNow account.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and thank you for reporting this issue to us.
Should you encounter any other issues while on PlayNow.com, please don't hesitate in letting us know.

With kindest regards,

ACTION TAKEN BY BCLC SECURITY:

2012-08-09 Writer noted player's complaint. Review of the betting is being conducted. Writer
forwarded email to player andvising the matter is being investigated. Writer has sought the assistance
of Investigator Rob STRATFORD as writer is AOL for a couple days.

SUI

10-Aug-2012
- Investigation found that one leg of the wager the player placed (Total Runs in 1st Inning Over/Under
1.5) was displayed in two places on the PlayNow site. One where it should be, and again where the
Total Runs in 4th Inning Over/Under 1.5 should be. Player selected the one that was where the 4th
inning wager should have been. OpenBet therefore recorded the wager as a 4th inning selection.
- Issue was forwarded to J.Haverstock who reported that the issue has been resolved. Copy of
correspondence attached under related content.
- Investigator confirmed on PlayNow site that the wagers are being displayed as they should be.
- Investigator confirmed that the wagers would have won, had the system recorded the wager as player
intended. Winnings calculated would have been $4.31 for 0/0398753/0000243 and $2.94 for
0/0398753/0000244. Manual adjustments posted to player's account in OpenBet.
- Email sent to player advising him of the results of the investigation and informing him that a total of
$7.29 has been posted into his PlayNow account.
Case concluded.
-Rob Stratford, (on behalf of D.Cebryk)

- Ross, I've adjusted the LINV scoring, as it was requiring that a section 86 be submitted.

On review of n/a outcome files this one should have been scored as Substantiated.
This was a display issue on site for this wager and that has been corrected. NO other players affected

think I would be allowed to do:

To do this I selected two events that allowed me to bet and then I removed one from the betslip. The bet slip was still
allowing me to proceed. I didn't finish the transaction to find out if it would let me proceed but I expected to see the

Ross

We have just discovered that we have incorrectly taken 9 bets as Singles that shouldn't have been offered as such. The
bets are all Olympic Athletic events. The bets are listed below- and you can see that one of the Players has staked 2
different bets of $600-the rest are relatively low stake. Our recommendation would be to have Consumer Services
contact these Players and cancel/refund these bets. We are attempting to get Sean from Paddy Power on the phone
now for a quick discussion. Let me know how you would like us to proceed.

Hi guys,
s. 15(1)(l)
The reason this happened is that (have a look at the audit
history, for the Shot Put selections this update was made at 07:57:56 on Aug 1st).

The changes we'd made tos'

Should we get an emergency patch together to disregard any acc_min values sent through on selection updates
. as well, to avoid this in the future?

Thanks,

Ross,

Our recommendation ts to immediately VOID and refund these 9 bets -along with a call to these Players from Consumer
Services. We would also recommend CS offering these Players the ability to manually settle these bets at the odds of
their original bet (if they desire to make this bet again and the price has since shortened). Consumer Services would
need to instruct Players to call us back to let us know that they have made the bet again with a parlay and if the odds
had since changed out of their favour. We will then need to coordinate the manual settlement with Paddy Power (if
necessary).

Consumer Services also has the discretion to offer compensation in the form of a Freebet if they feel it's necessary to
. satisfy any of the Players affected.

For messaging, we would recommend the key points:


Your bet was incorrectly offered as a single. The bet you placed must be offered as a parlay (due to the Criminal
code of Canada) and therefore has been made VOID and your bet is refunded.
You may place a wager again on those bets and then pa rlay with another event. (This actually may not be
possible until tomorrow morning until we can confirm thats-15C)(')
Currently these events in question are suspended on PlayNow.com)

Please confirm if you are in agreement of the above.

Karim is currently running a report to confirm this is isolated to these 9 bets on Olympic Men's Athletics Events (Shot Put
and Triple Jump events) and should have that shortly.

Thanks
James

1 was playing on PlayNow and I managed to get the UI to appear to be willing to accept a single event bet which I didn't
think I would be allowed to do:

To do this I selected two events that allowed me to bet and then I removed one from the betslip. The bet slip was still
allowing me to proceed. I didn't finish the transaction to find out if it would let me proceed but I expected to see the
"Please select another event to make a bet"

also got an error message when I tried to clear my betslip but I can't reproduce that.

Hi James, as per our discussion.

These bets need to be voided for sure, and funds returned to players. Diana and Sandra, can your team do that tonight
asap as I am told the events are for tomorrow.

The players definitely need to be contacted as well and I am satisfied with the messaging as you have below.

I am not overly concerned if the player is not be able to make a parlay bet later using the same event as we can look at
compensation later. The main priority is getting this resolved and prevent any further single bets.

Once the reports are run I would appreciate from eBusiness tomorrow a definitive summary on how this was able to
happen, how many players were affected, how many bets have taken place and what we have done now to prevent any
further bets. I am aware that these bets have been suspended. I will need this to provide a report to GPEB

As well I have discussed with Rhonda G that a report needs to be run to confirm that we haven't accepted any single
bets previously, as rest assured GPEB will request this information.

If we have taken any single bets on completed events, can I please be notified immediately.

Thanks all

Dear Mr. Lefler;

On Thursday 2nd August, Paddy Power trading staff were made aware of an issue whereby Singles
betting was offered on certain sports markets on www.Dlavnow.coni where it should not have been
authorized. The issue arose because s- 15(1K')
to the BCLC Openbet database and these updates caused single bets to be available on the
website.
A solution involving a change to a database stored procedure has been implemented on the Openbet
system which prevents s- 15(1W) . This
solution has been tested and I am satisfied that it removes this risk of Singles betting being offered on
www.plavnow.com. As an additional mitigation measure, Paddy Power traders have 24/7 real-time
visibility on all sports bets being placed on the website and can filter to see single bets. In the
extremely unlikely event that another unauthorized single bet is placed they can react immediately
and alert the relevant BCLC teams to the issue.
Further information on the issue can be provided if required.

Yours truly,

It was determined through internal BCLC observation that wagers on certain single sporting
events / markets were being offered by the eSports system. Through subsequent investigations
conducted by BCLC, Openbet and PaddyPower, the scope and impact of the issue was
confirmed:
On 08/07/2012, a total of 9 such wagers were placed, and later settled,
On 02/08/2012, 16 such wagers were placed, and later settled, and
On 02/08/2012, 9 such wagers were placed, but were promptly cancelled by BCLC
upon initial identification of the issue.

As detailed in other communications to GPEB, BCLC has implemented plans to address each
case appropriately, with all due care and attention to player fairness and regulatory
requirements.

Going forward, in order to prevent a similar recurrence of this issue, PaddyPower is currently
building updated systems and controls over the content of the s. 15(1)(I)
feed, which are expected to be implemented shortly. PaddyPower will also
implement 24/7 manual monitoring of the s- feed content.

In the meantime, and to serve as failsafe control, Openbet implemented a software patch (i.e.: a
Car 3 Red Change) at roughly 20:00 on 02/08/2012 in order to prevent the s. 15(1) feed from
updating selections on PlayNow relating to events / markets that should not be offered for single
wager betting.

Finally, in addition to the script already running on PlayNow which validates that overall events /

Please advise the player of the following message:

Your bet was offered as a single. The bet you placed must be offered as a parlay (due to
the Criminal code of Canada] and therefore has been made VOID and your bet is
refunded.
BCLC's technical team has investigated and regret any inconvenience this may have
caused you and thank you for your patience.

If the player questions the integrity of PlayNow please send a non-player email the TL'S, James

Any questions please see your Team Leader's.

Just talked to Doug Scott about this and he is not fussed at all. Pleased we reacted so effectively.
We had some discussions about paying the players and I agree with him we need to repay the bets
on all placed and do it as a credit ect. There is a good added value message that we can craft.

25 Settled Single Event Bets:

There were 13 unique players impacted


Total wagered amount $268 of which $80 freebets and $188 cash
Total payout $149.35 with one person winning $126.25
To-date as of August 2 we have taken s- 17(1)(b)(c)
The sports and markets impacted are:
o 13 Golf-Leader Rd.1
o 9 Snooker - Match Bet
o 2 Baseball - Match Bet BIR
o 1 Baseball - 2-Way Handicap
These sports/markets have been suspended.

Root Cause:

Paddy Power has identified the root cause.

The majority of sports that we offer are s- 1{5(1)(l)

Mitigation Plan

Openbet Solution deployed on August 2 has been reviewed and tested to confirm that this mitigates the
single event issue. Paddy Power has tested s- 15C)(l)
against the Openbet patch that was deployed and everything is working as
expected -s. 15(1)(I)
Paddy Power has confirmed that this closes off the loophole and that this risk of offering Singles has
been removed.
Facts:

On Thursday, August 2 at approx.. 3:00 pm an internal person identified that a single event wager
on Olympic Shotput was possible
Upon further investigation it was found that there were nine single event bets on Olympic
Athletics that had been made but not settled (8 bets on shotput and 1 bet on triple jump) on
August 2
A query of the entire database was run and it was found that since launch of sports on July 5 a
total of 34 single events had been offered (this 34 includes the nine identified on August 2)
25 single events had been made and settled.
Detailed spreadsheet attached with all 34 bets included. The 25 settled single events occurred on
July 7 and the nine unsettled events all occurred on August 2.

Actions:

Nine Unsettled Single Event Bets:

- The nine unsettled bets on August 2 have been cancelled/voided and the call center have
contacted the players to refund players their money.
- The 9 unsettled single bets affecting 8 players the bets have been voided and the players have
been called.
PlayNow ID #'s:
s.22

- The Olympic athletic events impacted have been suspended and continue to be suspended.
- A mitigation patch has been installed by 9:30 pm to further reinforce the net to prevent any single
events from getting through.

As requested, I have posted $200 into your PlayNow account as reimbursement for the wager you
would not have made had the error not been made when the event was listed.

We promise to do our best to ensure the information posted on our site is as accurate as possible, but
we also ask that you kindly read through the wager details carefully in order to avoid these kinds of
errors in the future.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this error has caused.

Description: *Hello Security - can you please review players dispute, player advised at the time of his
bet there was mis-information on the website playnow.com and he is looking for to be reimbursed.*

Player advised that he wants one of his bets escalated as there was a "glitch" on playnow.com's side.

Player advised that he had made a wager for $200 at 5:33 am where based on the information on the
website which was "incorrect" player advised that he wanted to bet on the polish team/weightlifter
based on the info, on the site beside the name it had (POL) but when player reviewed the player was
actually for Russia.

Player advised he did not pay attention to the names just the letters for the country and he wanted to
bet on Poland, but got the player for Russia.

Player advised the player Natalya Zabolotnaya is for Russia not for Poland.

Player advised if he had known that the individual was for from Russia and not Poland he would not
have made the bet.

Player advised that he thinks he should get his $200 back for the miss information on his ticket.

CSR advised that this info, will be sent to the appropriate dept. for review and player will be contacted
back.

Hi Rob, pis review, thnx Ross

08-Aug-2012
- Player8-22 reported that he placed a sports wager on 03-Aug-2012
at 5:33:51 which included an error on the wager listing on PlayNow.
- Part of the wager placed included Natalya Zabolotnaya as representing Poland. s 22 made the
wager based on the fact that the athlete represented Poland. However,s 22 reported that this
athelete represented Russia.
- Investigator viewed espn.com and confirmed Natalya Zabolotnaya represented Russia in this event.
(See Related Content for wager details from OpenBet as well as event confirmation from espn.com.)
- Due to the error on PlayNow.com, investigator feels player is entitled to reimbursement of amount
wagered. Because sports free bet tokens award the player only the winnings generated from the wager
amount, and not the full amount of the tokens plus winnings, a manual adjustment of $200 has been
posted tos-22 PlayNow account.
s-22 has been informed of this by email.
Case concluded.

Hello8-22

Please consider this email in follow up to the telephone conversation you had with Consumer Services
on June 8, 2012, regarding the inadvertent wagers made on your account.

It is important to highlight Section 7.01 of the PlayNow.com Player Agreement which states that "you
are solely responsible for ensuring that the details of your purchase and/or play decisions are correct
before you submit your purchase and/or play decisions for processing."

As I understand the bets were made in error,s 17(1Kd)


. Should you wish to discuss this matter in greater detail, I can be reached by
return email or at the direct line listed below.

Description Information:
Subject: Purchase Dispute - Max Bet
Description: Hello,

Please review this player's transactions - he states that he turned away from the computer for a couple
seconds and two wagers of $20 took place while he wasn't looking and his normal transaction is only
$0.40.

Thank you,
Nicole Kowal
Consumer Services

Player stated he was playing Cleopatra on PN, he turned away for a couple seconds and when he turned
back 2 spins of $20 had taken place which is not his normal transaction
Player stated he believes this must be a system error and "I will not be playing these types of games
anymore"

Agent I'd: Passed

CSR confirmed that 2 wagers of $20 had taken place and player's normal wager is only $0.40

Informed player this would be forwarded to the correct department for investigation

Player wanted to know if while investigating we could see everything he does online - informed player
we could only view his transactions on PN

Outcome: Substantiated
LINV Notes:
09-Jun-2012
Reviewed player's case history and account transactions:
It was noted that the player has not reported spin wager error before and that he typically wagers under $1.00.

Transaction history leading up to the disputed wagers:


2012-06-08 11:00:25 Wager Cleopatra 20 Line -$0.40
2012-06-08 11:00:29 Wager Cleopatra 20 Line -$20.00
2012-06-08 11:00:31 Wager Cleopatra 20 Line -$20.00

2012-06-08 11:02:05 Wager Cleopatra 20 Line -$0.40

The $20.00 wagers are not consistent with the player's wager history; investigator will grant a cash adjustment of
$40.00.
Investigator emailed advising it is player's responsibility to ensure wagers are made correctly and that the gesture
of reimbursement was one time gesture.
Account was adjusted by $40.00 in OpenBet.
No further action required at this time.

- Hi Courtney, please determine If the game concluded and if this is related to the known issue. Thx Cam

06-Jun-2012
Investigator located Fixed Odds Games Game Summary #452495508 which was wagered at 2012-06-03 21:06:25
(game finished at 2012-06-03 21:06:29); it was noted that this game was still open.
Investigator reviewed the screen shot provided; screen shot was taken the next morning (2012-06-04 10:23 a.m.)
and displays the error message received when he opens the game rather than the cards the player viewed during
game play.

What player saw: Jack, 3, 7 (total: 20); dealer was showing a 7.


What OpenBet recorded: Jack, 3, King (bust), and then a 7; dealer had 7, 3.

This experience is believed to be related to the known flash issue wherein the player does not see the first hit and
subsequently hits again.

Investigator contacted player ats-22 identified player by name, DOB, address, and secret questions.
Investigator advised the error described as being contained within the flash portion of the game and that - while
rare - causes a discrepancy between what the players sees and what is recorded in the system.
Player indicated he understood that the flash did not display the card that was dealt to him and that it in fact
busted prior to the 7 being dealt which is why he couldn't stand on the 20.

$50 token was awarded to the account as a gesture of goodwill; the player advised he was satisfied with the
resolution and that he will contact us back should this take place again.

Screen shots attached in related content:

Information provided to Bryon Hodgkin to update GPEB on the known issue.


Game dispute substantiated.
Request made of CS to close the game at 2012-06-03 21:06:25; it is to be noted that the player has already
received compensation for this experience and recommended that stake not be returned when the game is closed.
Investigator will email player once this has been closed.

1530 hrs - Discussed with Kim CHRISTIANSEN from BCLC Finance issue with 3 players having
duplicate adjustments to their P/N accounts resulting in players being overpaid. Total value
$250. All players had withdrawn funds. Discussed that process had now been put in place to
avoid occurrence happening again. CHRISTIANSEN wanted advice whether BCLC should take
loss since it was a minor amount as was practice in banking world. I asked her to send player
details and Secruity would review and attempt to seek compensation if appropriate.
1537 hrs - Follow up email received with attachment. Attached in related content.
Hi Ross,

Please see attached for details on the player deposits made in error, per our telephone
conversation. If you require further detail, please don't hesitate to contact Tracy Jordan, who
can look up any further information in the Beanstream system that you may require.

Thank you,

Kim

1704 hrs - Reviewed further and noted that the 3 players are all MB players and that Players are
still active. Called and spoke to CHRISTIANSEN. Advised of same and stated that in my opinion I
thought it was a better business decision to eat loss. She agreed.
No further action to be taken

Hello* 22

We have determined that there was a data-entry for the Dallas at Edmonton (NHL) game outcome for
Number of Away Goals. The gaming system operated properly however, the human error obviously
caused the result of your wager to be affected.

The wager has been resettled with the correct outcome and the winnings of $63.39 have been posted to
your account. I have also posted $10.00 in tokens for you to use on any Sports wagers for your
inconvenience you experienced. The tokens have a three-month expiry (May 7, 2013).

Thank you for bringing this to our attention so that we could rectify the payout discrepancy for you.
Should you recall the details of the previous time you believe this occurred, I would be more than happy
to look into it for you.

Best regards,

Cameron Dodson

- Case was re-opened by player sending message thanking for the tokens and advising that he could not locate the
transaction that he mentioned. It is this investigator's belief that the player did not actually make the wagers and
only mentioned this in his messages to us in order to highlight his frustration with this honest mistake.
- Player also indicated there was an error on the site with the outcome of the Florida/ Winnipeg (NHL) game "Total
Goals" for 05-Feb-2013. Checked player's transactions and he had not wagered on this line.

- No further action necessary.

Hello* 22

I have been assigned your case regarding your buy in dispute. I had a look at your transactions and
noted the following for January 14,2013:

"Finished game Texas Holdem tt515(1)0 at 16:25:11"

The next transaction on your account for poker is:

"Start Game Texas Holdem #s 15(1)0 at 17:13:18"

Based on our records it would appear you were logged in but, not playing on BCLC PlayNow poker site at
the time reported. Can you confirm the time you experienced the buy-in discrepancy at 17:03 on
January 14, 2013? Also, can you recall what hand you went 'All In' with and what hand won?

Any information would be helpful to look in to your concerns further. Please feel free to respond to this
message or contact me directly in the Vancouver BCLC office at 604-228-3098.

Body:
Hi Maria,

We have a player who registered for the $1K GT tournament at 16:08 hrs on Jan 14,2013. He went all in
and was knocked out at 17:04 and did not receive his free re-buy. I am suspecting there is a rule he has
overlooked with respect to what qualifies him for the re-buy, such as, "must re-buy before being
knocked out, etc etc"

The tournament # is* 15(1X0 and the player nickname is'B 22 "

Can you confirm if there is a rule on the re-buy that would prevent a player from receiving his re-buy?

Thanks
Cam

Hello Supervisors,

Regarding this player's concerns about not receiving his re-buy, the Tournament ID is:* 15(1)(0 . The
Game Session is:* 15(1)(0

The player reported not receiving his re-buy as per his complaint:

What date did the issue occur (if applicable)? 2013-01-14


What time did the issue occur (if applicable)? 17:00
* Please describe your concerns: I was playing in The IK double chance game. The site states that you

get a $0 rebuy until 1705,65 min after the start time

I went all in at 1703 knowing i had a free rebuy and I was ko'd from the tournament with no rebuy
offered. I was clearly all in prior to the 1705 (65min from start of tourny) and was not offered a rebuy. I
believe this is completely unfair and would like my rebuy refunded.

Subject: RE: Poker Re-buy Issue - $1K GT Tournament [ ref:_00D80bj6y._500C0O72r8:ref ]

Hello Supervisors,

Regarding this player's concerns about not receiving his re-buy, the Tournament ID is:515(1)('). The
Game Session is:5 15(1)C)

The player reported not receiving his re-buy as per his complaint:

What date did the issue occur (if applicable)? 2013-01-14 What time did the issue occur (if applicable)?
17:00
* Please describe your concerns: I was playing in The IK double chance game. The site states that you

get a $0 rebuy until 1705, 65 min after the start time

I went all in at 1703 knowing i had a free rebuy and I was ko'd from the tournament with no rebuy
offered. I was clearly all in prior to the 1705 (65min from start of tourny) and was not offered a rebuy. I
believe this is completely unfair and would like my rebuy refunded.

Please advise if you require any further information.


Thanks
Cameron

Thank you Belle,

I see from the case "G2 -s 15(1)(0 " that the matter was resolved and identified as a "technical issue." A
message was sent to the player advising of this along with the compensation of $6.60 for the missed
rebuy.

Can you please advise what the technical issue was that caused this for the player? Were any other
players affected by this who may not be aware?

Thank you!

Subject: PlayNow.com Poker Outage [ ref:_00D80bj6y._500C0Me0hX:ref ]


Body:
Hello* 22 ,

Please be advised that your concerns have been forwarded to the appropriate departments. With
respect to the BC outage that took place on October 30, our poker team has provided the following
information.

In cases like this, where we have a BC specific site outage, tournaments are played out and the prize
pool is distributed to any players who are able to finish. We do our best to prevent issues like this from
occurring, but they will happen from time to time. When a poker game is affected by an outage, we
work to, at minimum, put the players in the position they were in before they entered a poker game and
we apply this practice across the board when resolving matters like this.

We understand that this is frustrating for tournament players, and that it would be ideal from the
player's perspective to receive a refund based on chip equity, but because the prize pool is paid out, this
isn't feasible.

On that note, a review of your account indicated you were owed an additional $20 for your add on. This
has since been added to your account.

Best Regards,

Courtney Robinson

This case just came through to Security from G2/ CS. It appears that the player has only been adjusted
with $22.00 and - per an update from Maria to Case 01302682 - is owed an additional $20.00.

I will adjust her account per Maria's update and will be responding with the response provided

The whole idea of using the BCLC's poker site seemed like a good idea,
sadly you seem to run it like any government run entity - lousy care of
paying customers.

I was entered in two tournaments this evening when I was kicked off the
site due to "Emergency Maintenance". I had been in toumaments 15(1)0) $2500
GTfor nearly 5 hours, already in the money with a average-large stack. I
was unsuccessful in my near constant attempts to log in over the next hour
and was blinded out of the tournament and placed 10 (I believe there were
II players left when I was kicked off). I was also in tournament* 15(1)(I)
$4000 GT in the top 3 spots. When I was finally able to sign back in my
chips had been so diminished it would have been near impossible to get
back in it, and was out before the prize positons. Even though again if I
had not be kicked off while others were able to play it is unlikely that
is the position I would have ended in.

Why would SOME people get dropped for "Emergency Maintenance" and not
others or more importantly; why wasn't the game locked down for the
duration of this maintenance if only a select few were kicked? I tried
speaking to a live chat agent, and was told (multiple times as though I
was an idiot) that there were technical difficulties and emergency
maintenance had to be done, and that the tournament would be refunded
according to your policies.

I have spent a serious amount of time and a good amount of money on your
site and think this is totally unacceptable. Because your site malfunction
was not fairly or adequately dealt with I have lost out on potentially
hundreds of dollars. Adequate compensation is NOT returning JUST the
tournament fee - especially when this was handled by 'you in such a
willy-nilly unfair manner.

I will happily withdraw my money and move on to another poker site, as


well as advise the many players I have recommended your site to, to do the
same. Social media is particularly effective when letting friends know of
unfair and unreasonable practices while recommending alternatives. There
has to be some responsibility when BCLC fouls up and loses the players
earnings.

Category:
(Should be Cat-3)
The cause of the anomaly has been identified by Openbet as a bugs. 15(1)(I)
Cause: The bug allows the anomaly to manifest only
(full description) under certain specific network communication conditions, causing the anomaly to be
extremely rare and intermittent.
Openbet is currently testing a fix for the anomaly, which would involve a new Flash patch or build for the
games in question. Once Openbet has the fix ready, it will be submitted to GLI for urgent compliance testing
prior to live implementation. GLI will provide their testing results to BCLC and GPEB upon successful
completion of the work.

In the meantime, it is proposed that these games remain enabled in the live, given that:
1. The anomaly impacts the game artwork only, and the integrity of the actual payouts is not
compromised,
Resolution: 2. The player is able to observe the actual / correct game outcome in their game play history,
(full description) 3. The back-office logs available to BCLC staff record the actual / correct game outcome,
4. For Monopoly the anomaly has been reported in only one game out of the current total of roughly
2.6 million games played; and for Wheel of Fortune the anomaly has been reported in only three
games out of the current total of roughly 21 million games played, and
5. Since Openbet is already testing a fix, it is likely that the anomaly will be addressed in the live
environment shortly, pending a successful compliance assessment by GLI.

Unless GPEB requires otherwise, BCLC shall proceed as proposed herein, moving towards a solution in the
live environment as soon as possible.

An anomaly has been observed with Openbet's Monopoly and Wheel of Fortune games in the live PlayNow

environment.

In extremely rare circumstances, the top row of reel symbols made visible to the player upon display of the
game outcome will either:
1. Appear to continue to cycle rapidly through reel symbol combinations, despite all other reel
symbols having stopped, where each such combination on the top row is comprised of 5x the first
reel symbol, then 5x the next reel symbol, then 5x the next reel symbol, etc... in a continuous loop
(e.g.: 5x Bar, then 5x Double-Bar, then 5x Triple-Bar, then 5x Orange, then 5x Strawberry, etc...
until each type of reel symbol within the game has been displayed in rapid succession, then
repeat), or
2. Appear to land on 5x the wild symbol.

In both cases, the game crashes immediately upon display of the incorrect game outcome, with the amount
won field showing an erroneous text string (e.g.: "N A N.00"), the player's account balance field showing zero
"0.00", and the rainbow bar (on the left-hand side of the screen) highlighted to indicate that the reels are still
Symptoms: active. At this point, in order to continue game play, the player is forced to close and restart the game.
(full description)
The reported instances of this anomaly occurring are as follows:
1. Wheel of Fortune game,
29/10/2012 (occurred at approximately 18:45, reported at approximately 19:30)
18/11/2012 (occurred at approximately 22:15, reported at approximately 22:30)
20/11/2012 (occurred at approximately 20:15, reported at approximately 20:15)
2. Monopoly game,
16/11/2012 (occurred at approximately 09:15, reported at approximately 10:30)

While the anomaly was initially reported on 29/10/2012 by one player, and 16/11/2012 by another player,
these reports did not include sufficient information to allow BCLC to link the reports and / or confirm the.
nature of the anomaly. In each case, it was believed at the time to likely be the result of a failure on the
player's computer, such as a browser crash / freeze. It was not until the report of the incident occurring on
18/11/2012 and 20/11/2012, where additional detailed information was submitted by the single affected
player, that BCLC was able to link the reports and confirm that the anomaly was in fact the result of an issue
with the Openbet software.
Last year, more than $1 billion generated by BCLC gambling activities went back into health care, education and community groups across B.C.

Hi Courtney,

Thanks for escalating this issue. At this time we suspect this is a display issue isolated to this players system
configuration. If this is reported by a different player over the weekend we will need to escalate to OpenBet.

At this time it is important we stress that the outcome being recorded in the transaction history is the correct outcome
and that her funds are not being affected. Please apologize for the display issue and assure her he will look into it.

There is a way for her to easily provide several pieces of information that will help us investigate further. It's by running
msn autocare and then submitting the aclog.txt file that is provided when the application is finished. However, I'm not
sure if we're able to ask her to run this program. Also, I can't run this program so I can't provide the list of data for her to
submit. If she can submit additional info please forward to OpenBet. In the interim, we can ask her to use a browser
other than IE to see if that alleviates the issue.

Thanks very much for your help with this. Hopefully if s an isolated case.

Maria

Hi Brad and Maria,

This case was escalated to you via FYI email from Consumer Services and Pm wondering if you can provide
some context as to whether you feel this is a flash issue on the player's end or something encrypted in the
game. It's noted that this happened to this player twice today, the second time being captured with a screen shot
(see attached). I've also attached what was logged in the back end of OpenBet to compare. The game is still
open.

I've copied my team as a FYI in the event we receive similar instances.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Maria,

This looks very similar to an issue that Dwayne encountered recently... but with a different game.

SF case515(1)(l) player5,22 reported that on 29-Oct - around the time we had an outage
- he was playing Wheel of Fortune 20 line slots. On two occasions, the top line displayed 5 of a kind but did not payout.

Player provided screen shots which are of poor quality. (See below) He has agreed to try to provide higher resolution
shots, but in the images we have, we can see that the top line is displaying 5 of a kind and the player is not in demo
mode.

In the first image, player has 5 bonus wheel icons displayed across the top line. (He states this Occurred on29-Oct at
18:52 -though OpenBet shows he finished playing WoF at 18:43.)

In the second image, player has 5 ring icons displayed across the top line.

This is the same issue as the one discovered in Monopoly in the mentioned tickets, and the fix also applies to
this game.

The issue can be recreated by s- 15CW)

o The "specific network communication conditions" which cause the anomaly to manifest have not been detailed
however these conditions are described as occurring intermittently.

I relate back to what would occur in the land-based slot world should this have occurred repeatedly on a slot
machine. That game would have been taken out of service and the software would have been revoked. The game could
be returned to service only on completion of an upgrade to the software or hardware that caused the malfunction.

Please arrange to have the two games suppressed until such time as the fix has been tested, GPEB has certified the fix,
and the games have been properly QA'd. I am fully cognizant of the impact or suppressing both of these popular games.

Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Thanks for your report.

Given the extreme results of the anomaly (game crash) and the requirement of a player being forced to close and restart
the game, GPEB had decided that both games should be suppressed until a fix has been applied and that fix must be
tested by the ATF prior to launch. There are several reasons for this decision:

0 The cause of the anomaly has been identified as residing in the flash software for these two identified games. A
fix is currently in the process of being developed.
o | disagree With the characterization that this is an "extremely rare" circumstance. It has been reported 4 times
over a period of 18 days. While these may be the only reports received, it is quite conceivable that one or more
players experienced the same catastrophic game crash and required restart due to this anomaly and simply
restarted the game without reporting the matter. Additionally, these reports are clustered in a very short time
frame (based on the number of games played to date), possibly indicating a recent systemic change.
Irrespective of the proper game outcome (back office history) and the player history, the incorrect display of the
game outcome, erroneous text string, and more importantly, the zeroing of the player's account balance erodes
the confidence that a player has that the game is operating with integrity.
o Provided we are speaking about the same game/version, it appears that the Monopoly game anomaly occurred
very shortly after launch for the newest version of the game. Certification was granted November. 7th 2012. I
am unaware of the actual launch date however the anomaly occurred a little over a week later on the morning
of November 16^.
o While the anomaly may not impact actual payouts, it does impact more than just the game artwork as stated,
the game crashes.

I also just made the following comments to Manager eGaming Operations in an email.

/ agree, as I have previously mentioned GPEB do take these PlayNow game issues very seriously and we need to address
them quickly so it does not look like we are avoiding a fix. I know we are not but the process needs to be quicker. Steve L
has some valid points and we need to keep their confidence as it has a flow on effect, eg other jurisdictions. It would look
a lot better if we identified an issue, took game down and resolved, rather than our regulator instructing us to do so. I
tried to re-iterate that to eSports guys too. If we have any more of these bets incorrectly displayed, GPEB could also ask
for eSports to be pulled. I am going to recommend to my guys to s 17(1 )(d) for ^ejr
inconvenience and stress that the issue did not affect the gameplay.

Thanks for your hard work on these files

I am reviewing your query of prize win during your Wheel of Fortune play 2012-10-29. Thank you for
sending the screen shots. Unfortunately the images are very small and when the view is enlarged the
image is too distorted to make out any detail in the photo. Would you have the screen shots in higher
resolution?

Also could you please provide as much detail as possible on what you were playing leading up to the
Wheel of Fortune play - how many spins / how long were you playing Wheel of Fortune when you
received the same 5 pictures. What you account balance was and the amount of each wager when you
received the 5 images. Any other detail will be of great benefit to my review.

Thanks

Hi s.22

I did receive one of the photos which is much clearer - thanks very much. I know you had initially sent
two photos which showed the "Wheel of Fortune" wheel which is what you had sent and there is
another photo which appears to be the rings but I am not sure. So if you could resend the 2nd photo as
well that would be greatly appreciated.

As I mentioned to you I am working with our technical support on this matter. As I receive information
from them I will follow up with you.

Thanks again

his friend send the photos. Writer explained the resolution was not clear enough for the photos to be
analyzed. s-22 advised he is not very knowledgeable about computers and will have his friend assist
him again. Writer advised s-22 that if they are having problems sending the photos to contact CS
and request a secure link perhaps that will work for obtaining the photos.

s-22 indicated when he was playing Wheel of Fortune he had made 3 $.40 wagers and on the third

wager he received the 5 Wheel of Fortune symbols - at that time the game froze and he called CS. CS
recommended he take a photo of the screen because the BCLC site had gone down - CS also advised
s-22 that they could only see 2 $.40 wagers and not three.

s-22 advised he does not gamble very much and is still learning how the various games work. He
did comment to the writer that he was not even sure if he had won anything.

Writer advised at this point it is important to receive the photos so they can be analyzed.

s-22 further indicated he had not received the writer's email message from 2012-11-09 - He had not
checked his gmail account to see if he had received the email sent today. Writer advised the emails
were sent to his gmail account which is associated to his PN account. Writer advised that could be the
reason he is not able to send email as there could be an issue with the email address.

s-22 advised he would attempt over the weekend to forward the photos to the writer.

ACTION TAKEN BY BCLC SECURITY:

2012-11-09 -

Writer reviewed PN account and noted there are only two wagers of Wheel of Fortune where the player
indicates he won two seperate prizes. There is nothing in OpenBet that is remotely similar to what the
player is reporting he has seen on his computer.

Writer and Rob STRATFORD reviewed the screen shots provided by the player how ever the images
were to small to make out any detail. When the image is enlarged the distortion does not allow for any
detail to be viewed. Writer forwarded an email tos-22 requesting aimages with higher resolution
and to provide further detail regarding the wins. Copy of email attached.

It should be noted writer and Rob STRATFORD reviewed Wheel of Fortune on Demo mode and noted
that when there is a win there is a line that runs from left to right across the screen and the prize
amount is displayed in the appropriate box on the left of the play area. In the screen shots provided by
s-22 these two things are not visible in the photos.

Writer will follow up whens-22 provides response to the email.

2012-11-16

Writer noted recent Case Comments. Clearly5-22 has not repsponded to the email forwarded

I'm in the process of obtaining information regarding the technical issue as well as confirming details
regarding your participation in the tournament. At this point, it has been confirmed that the issue that
occurred during the tournament did not affect all players and as such the tournament continued
without some of the participants.

I would like to ask for your continued patience while I continue with my investigation. I will provide you
with an update once information becomes available to me.

I apologize for the delay in getting this issue resolved for you. Certain information was required to
complete our investigation, and that information had to be requested.

The technical issue that occurred on October 8 was unfortunate. However, it should be noted that the
PlayNow.com Player Agreement states:
8.04 Limitation of Liability
You agree that BCLC may only be held liable in the event of a technical malfunction caused solely by a
failure of the Computer Systems and in such case, BCLC's liability shall be limited to the amount you
wagered or paid to participate in the game in question and your sole remedy is to be reimbursed for
such amount. You agree that BCLC shall not be liable under any other circumstances for any amount.

For those affected who won an amount greater than what they paid to play, the player would receive
the winnings in place of the refund. However, I am in agreement that your case warrants an exception.

While we cannot pay out a player a 4th place prize for a tournament that they were unable to finish
(regardless of the reason), we can in this case award you an appropriate share of the total prize pool for
the tournament you were entered in based on your chip count at the time of the incident.

At the time the issue occurred, I have confirmed that your chip count was 17,325. This is 9.625% of the
total chip count of the tournament. (The total chip count for the tournament was 180,000.) The total
prize pool for the tournament was $1,500. 9.625% of the total prize pool is $144.38.

- Player8-22 reported that he had been participating in a poker tournament
on 08-Oct-2012 when our system had technical problems that prohibited8-22 from completing
the tournament. Despite being unable to finish,8-22 finished in 8th position, winning $55.00
on a $22 registration. 8-22 states that at no fault of his own, he dropped from 4th place to 8th
and should be entitled to a larger share of the prize pool.
- Investigator confirmed thats-22 was registered for the tournament, but due to internal
software issues could not confirm player's chip count or how much of the tournament he completed
before the system error.
- Investigator contacted B.ROMANO (eGaming Product Manager) to confirm if other BCLC players were
able to continue to play while some could not. ROMANO confirmed that only some BCLC players were
affected and that G2 (ePoker Service Provider) could not access the tournament to stop it when the
issues were first reported. ROMANO has not received the full incident report to determine what
happened.
- Email sent to G2 inquiring about the tournament and8-22 participation in it:
*8-22 chip count at the time of the issue
* The total chip count for the tournament
* The total prize pool for the tournament
- Depending on G2's response, Investigator may award s-22 additional compensation for his
partipation in the tournament.

Hi Greg, James, and Daniel,

This case has been escalated to LINV as per the player's transaction dispute.

Prior to contacting him, I'd like to ask for your input and clarification as I have yet to identify any
compliance issues with the settlement. I am prepared to contact him to advise him as such; however, as
he has requested to be contacted by phone I'd like to know if this something you'd prefer to address
with him. CS has advised this player's stake factor has been decreased and his concern appears to be
related to this settlement being different then a previous settlement when his stake was voided.
Any information pertaining this matter is appreciated as the narrative between the sports team, CS, and
Paddy spans over several cases and isn't entirely clear.

Case details as provided by CS are outlined below.

For your reference, I've included the last correspondence from Paddy on 10-Sep-2012 which is logged
on Case 01248389:
This customer placed the bet only yesterday and was settled after the match finished so he had to wait a
maximum of 3 hours. I do not know what his 'friend' has placed but this bet is settled correctly as a loser
despite the fact that the customer took advantage of prices not updating to massively increase is
chances of winning. If is bet had of been a winner it would have been voided or settled with a much
smaller return

C.

Hello again,

I spoke withs-22 yesterday. He advised that he was satisfied with the resolution of this case;
however, he had questions pertaining to his limits versus the limits of other players he's spoken with.
He indicated he noticed the shift 1-2 months ago and would like an explanation as he feels his limits are
too low for the type of player he is. (I believe CS had mentioned earlier on that this player's stake factor
had been reduced).

Can you please arrange a callback to8-22 to discuss this matter, per his request? I am only
assuming that this is a matter your group would like to address rather than customer support?

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

Thanks again for your assistance with this one. FYI... I have emailed the following:

Hello8 22

I have discussed this matter with our PlayNow.com Sports team and it was decided that the wager in
question will be voided. A total of $830.00 has been returned to your account this morning. Although
per the outcome of the wagers the settlements should be settled as a loss, we recognize the
circumstances surrounding the settlements and that your overall customer service experience has been
less than ideal.

Please accept this gesture of good faith as our appreciation of your patronage. Should you wish to
discuss this matter in greater detail I can be reached by return email or at the direct telephone number
listed below.

Best Regards,

Hello again,

I spoke with8-22 yesterday. He advised that he was satisfied with the resolution of this case;
however, he had questions pertaining to his limits versus the limits of other players he's spoken with.
He indicated he noticed the shift 1-2 months ago and would like an explanation as he feels his limits are
too low for the type of player he is. (I believe CS had mentioned earlier on that this player's stake factor
had been reduced).

Can you please arrange a callback to8-22 to discuss this matter, per his request? I am only
assuming that this is a matter your group would like to address rather than customer support?

Thanks,

C.

this, however I need to know what possible resolutions I can give him.

Outcome: Substantiated
LINV Notes:
23-May-2012
Reviewed case and parent case in SalesForce and screen shots provided by the player.

Instance One:
The player contacted Consumer Services initially on 2012-05-19 related to her last transaction at 22:48:31 when
she didn't receive the bonus "race."
Investigator reviewed screen shot which was taken on 2012-05-19 at approximately 22:23:00 (as per the game
screen and player's desktop).
The last wager made prior to the time listed on the screen shot was at 2012-05-19 22:20:13 and the reels listed in
OpenBet do not reflect the reels in the player's screen shot.
Screen shot and fixed odds games game summary # 440420218 attached in related content.
Investigator notes the last wager placed on Super Cars 20 Line was $3.00 and it won $0.30.
When the win was awarded, the player's balance was $79.04, the account balance listed in the screen shot.
The next wager isn't logged in the system until 2012-05-19 22:46:40.
The player saw the three "feature" scatter icons, expecting the Canyon Cup mini game to begin; however this spin
isn't logged in the system.
Investigator reviewed the last wager, placed at 2012-05-19 22:20:13, no feature or bonus icons appeared and the
wager played through as expected per the reel outcomes.

Instance Two:
The screen shot was taken at approximately 2012-05-20 11:03:00 (as per the game screen and player's desktop).
The last wager made within this login session was made at 2012-05-20 11:02:05 and the reels listed in OpenBet do
not reflect the reels in the player's screen shot.
Screen shot and fixed odds games game summary # 440732547 attached in related content.
Investigator notes the last wager placed on Super Cars 20 Line was $2.00 and it was not a winning spin. When the
losing spin completed, the player's balance was $195.84, the account balance listed in the screen shot.
The player saw the three "bonus" scatter icons, expecting the Golden Flag mini game to begin; however, this spin
isn't logged in the system.
Investigator reviewed the last wager, placed at 2012-05-20 11:03:00, no feature or bonus icons appeared and the
wager played through as expected per the reel outcomes.

Investigator spoke with Brad Romano, eCasino Manager, who was able to re-create this experience.
It is believed that the issue experienced by the player is based on the 50-spin error message that takes place every
50 spins.
On May 19, the issue took place after the player's 250th spin.
On May 20, the issue took place after the player's 100th spin.
OpenBet Support Ticket #81134 has been created to investigate this matter in greater detail.

Player has been awarded with a $100.00 token for bringing this to our attention and has been emailed to advise
this issue has been escalated to the technical team.
Screen shots attached in related content have been sent to GPE by Bryon Hodgkin.
