Newspaper: NZ gambler trumped by own casino ban Module body

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - A man who won 60,000 New Zealand dollars ($44,000) playing poker at an Auckland casino was refused the jackpot because he had banned himself from the premises for gambling too much, a newspaper reported on Friday.

Sothea Sinn, 28, won the prize playing Caribbean stud poker at Auckland's Skycity Casino on Wednesday but casino staff refused to pay, saying he was banned at his own request,The Dominion-Post newspaper reported.

"I was absolutely gutted," Sinn told the newspaper.

Sinn said that in 2004 he demanded the casino ban him and his girlfriend because he was gambling too much. He said he thought the ban had expired, but casino staff said he had agreed to undergo counselling before readmission and had not done so.

Sinn said he would take his case to New Zealand gambling authorities.

so if he was banned, why would they let him in and allow him to gamble? guess they didn't give a shit if he lost, but since he won they went with the banning claim...fuking douchebags
