Woman beat $50 into 3.3 million, casino froze her out

Jacqueline Davis dumped $50 into BetMGM's Luck O' the Roulette on March 18, 2021. Six days later her account showed $3.3 million. A software malfunction was multiplying her wins on the way from the game screen to her wallet. BetMGM approved her $100,000 withdrawal. A VIP host called to congratulate her. The next day they suspended her account. The investigation found the malfunction. They found BetMGM broke reporting rules. They found BetMGM didn't cooperate fully with investigators. They took zero disciplinary action and kept the money. Davis sued. Lost in Wayne Circuit Court. Lost in Court of Appeals. Both courts said the gaming regulator had exclusive jurisdiction, so sorry. The Michigan Gaming Control Board investigated, confirmed BetMGM broke the rules, and did nothing. She appealed to Michigan Supreme Court. All seven justices voted unanimously on July 22, 2025 that she deserves a trial. That was six months ago. The trial hasn't happened. The money is still gone. BetMGM still hasn't commented.
