DraftKings Switched My Bets to High Stakes Without Warning
Having used DraftKings for some time, initially everything seemed legitimate. But I observed a weird trend after a few decent successes. The games start to seem erratic, and when you want to switch to another game—especially with regard to betting tables or slots—you best check those bet amounts. At first appearance, what appears to be a casual $0.50 or $1 stake could quickly leap to $50 or even $100 every spin or hand. More many once, this has happened to me; every time I contacted customer service, they blamed me for saying I must have "accidentally raised the stakes." Sorry, but bad UI or dishonest design have no justification. Unless you are specifically trying to fool players, no game should default to that high a bet. Pay close attention before you start, folks— DraftKings isn't as user-friendly as they would like you to think.
