In other words, if we played out this situations infinite amt of times (casino BR $200, bet size $50, player BR $1500) the player will bust the casino more times then casino will make money off this deal

Therefore situationally, this could be a +EV gamble for the player. I'm sure someone will step up and either back me up with some rigorous analysis or disprove me with the same. I suspect if you plot expectation vs finite bankrolls of various sizes(BR) approximating infinity (INF) in EV calculations, you will find that under certain values for BR (low v betsize), the EV will be positive for the player.

I don't need rigorous analysis. There's no question about it: -EV is -EV.
