FEATURED PUBLIC FORUM THREADHow is 'no negative carryover' possible?

How do online casinos promise "no negative carryover" on player winnings? In the long run you would think the casino would go out of business. Granted, players lose -- and lose on a regular basis -- so, in theory, there should not be a lot of negative carryover to begin with. But if even a few players hit it big, your affiliate account could be negative $200,000. Then the next month the players lose it all back and all of the sudden you are earning $100,000 in revenue. How can the casinos afford that? Thoughts? read more
