Betfair Has A Computer Glitch

Some poker players playing on Betfair.com were paid out money the site claims they should not have been paid. There seems to have been a computer glitch and players were given money for their second best poker hand that they were not entitled to receive. The online site is demanding that the players give back the money.

This is an interesting problem for any online casino. If an online casino's software causes a problem, who is responsible for the damages? Some would say it is the problem of the software company and some would say it is the players who should tell the casino there is a glitch that is dispensing unearned money. Betfair has a PR problem, as it is demanding the return of the erroneously paid money. The question that is still unanswered is what will the players do who got the money and took it out of their accounts. They did not cheat per se, but they did receive money they were not entitled to get. Any gambler reading this story has to ask themselves what they would do under similar circumstances. Most gamblers hate cheaters, but is this a cheating incident or just a win fall from the casino. Be interesting to know what is the outcome of this software glitch.
