A Detroit woman deposited $50 into BetMGM and turned it into $3.3 MILLION over six days. The casino paid her $100,000, congratulated her, then suspended her account and kept the rest. She spent four years fighting through every court in Michigan just to get her day in court. She still does not have the money. – Jacqueline Davis deposited $50 into her BetMGM account on March 18 2021 and started playing a game called Luck O' the Roulette. – Her first bet was $4.50. She lost it. – She kept playing and over the next six days the Michigan Supreme Court later described what happened as "a heater of epic magnitude." – As her winnings grew she pressed her bets higher. – By March 23 she was wagering $5,000 per spin. – Her account balance reached $3,289,500.75. – She requested a $100,000 withdrawal. – BetMGM approved it by email. A VIP host called to discuss transferring such a large amount off the platform. They congratulated her on her winnings. – The next day her account was suspended for unusual activity. – BetMGM's investigation found a software malfunction had started on her 28th play. – Win amounts were being multiplied when transferred from the game screen to her wallet. – They said her account should have read zero by play 368. They removed the game from Michigan entirely. – Davis sued for fraud and breach of contract. – The Wayne Circuit Court dismissed her case. – The Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal. Both courts said Michigan gaming law gave the regulator exclusive jurisdiction over such disputes. – The Michigan Gaming Control Board investigated. – They found BetMGM had violated rules by failing to report the malfunction promptly and not cooperating fully with the investigation. Took no disciplinary action anyway. – Davis appealed all the way to the Michigan Supreme Court. – On July 22 2025 all seven justices ruled unanimously she has the right to take BetMGM to trial. The case was sent back to Wayne Circuit Court. – That trial has not happened yet. It is now 2026 and she is still waiting. – BetMGM has not commented. A woman turned $50 into $3.3 MILLION, was congratulated by the casino's VIP team, had her account frozen the next day, lost in two courts, won at the Supreme Court, and is still waiting for a trial five years later.
