12000 a month is probably chump change for a casino and money well spent at that for the features cloudflare provides
At my job, a reasonably sized it customer generates about 100-500k a month.
For 12k a month just the DDoS protection would be worth it for a site of that nature and size but they also get CDN access with full control over the caching, and a web application firewall.
The way I see it the casino was trying to plate share at a buffet and got caught so now they are complaining about having to pay the correct amount.
The casino has like millions of folks at $300/month according to a comment on another topic about this.
Based cloudflare.
