A man who lost almost $600,000 has sued two betting firms for encouraging him to have a punt and failing to tell him he had a gambling problem. 7NEWS

“Beteasy and Sportsbet did not use any of this information to make further inquiry of Gassner about his ability to sustain large losses or his ability to control his gambling behaviour,” he wrote.

“Instead, Beteasy and Sportsbet promoted gambling to Gassner and enticed and encouraged him to gamble.” Gassner stopped using the Beteasy app in September 2020 after being advised to move over to Sportsbet’s platform. He says he then proceeded to lose all of his savings and some of his business funds before suspending his Sportsbet account in June 2021.Gassner is also seeking interest on these amounts plus his legal costs.

A mediation has been scheduled for October 27 and the matter will next come before the court on November 3.
