It is no secret that the Amazon-owned livestreaming platform banned gambling, especially because of the huge controversy with Slicker. Recently the Brazilian soccer player Neymar livestreamed on Twitch. But what was more intriguing was him doing a gambling stream and didn’t receive any penalty from Twitch for doing so.

Later, the Canadian streamer xQc reacted to a small clip of Neymar gambling on Twitch. He raised questions against Twitch’s policy and claimed them to be partial towards the Brazilian star. This reaction by the 27-year-old streamer went viral on the internet and MrBeast’s eyes fell on this news. The YouTube creator was stunned to find out Neymar streamed gambling on Twitch.

Now some might wonder why xQc is reacting so much to this case. As he can simply ignore this stream if it’s against his morals. But the reason for xQc’s frustration is him once being a successful gambling streamer on the purple platform beside the likes of Trainwreckstv. However, the 27-year-old had to leave gambling streams because of Twitch’s prohibition on it.
