The Belgian Gaming Commission (BGC) has fined 79 players who gambled on the Betclic Everest’s Betclic.com site, which does not hold a license in the country.

Betclic players will face fines of €200 ($223) for placing the unauthorized bets and balances from their Betclic account will be seized.

The BGC will have bigger plans for major bettors who wagered thousands of Euros on BetClic, with fines of up to €16,000 ($17,850), which is expected to be executed next month.

Director of BGC Peter Naessens said that it’s customary for his commission to target the illegal operators before players, but in this instance, an exception was made.
