We need a lot more detail before we can answer this.

Which platform? MS-DOS, Windows, Linux? Which GUI system will use use? wx, qt, win32lib, ... ? What Euphoria? Ver 3 or ver 4?

If you are using Windows and Win32lib, the common method is to handle either the Mouse or Click event.

-- example 
procedure onMouse(integer self, integer event, sequence parms) 
    if parms[1] = LeftDown then 
        savePos = {parms[2], parms[3]} -- get the X/Y position of the mouse. 
    end if 
end procedure 
setHandler (TheWindow, w32HMouse, routine_id("onMouse")) 

From the Win32lib manual ...

parms = { integer event, integer x, integer y, integer shift, integer wheelmove }  
The event parameter will be one of the following values: 
 
MouseMove: the mouse was moved 
LeftDown: the left mouse button was pressed 
RightDown: the right mouse button was pressed 
LeftUp: the left mouse button was released 
RightUp: the right mouse button was released 
LeftDoubleClick: the left mouse button was double clicked 
RightDoubleClick: the right mouse button was double clicked 
WheelMove: The mouse wheel has moved. 
 
The x and y parameters specify where the mouse is located. If the mouse has been  
grabbed (see captureMouse), the values of x and y can be negative if the mouse 
is outside the client area. 
 
The shift parameter has bits set indicating the if the keyboard shift, control, and alt 
keys are pressed, and which mouse button was pressed.  
 
The masks are: 
ShiftMask --> Left and/or Right Shift key down 
ControlMask --> Left and/or Right Control key down 
AltMask --> Left and/or Right Alt key down 
WinMask --> Left and/or Right Windows key down 
KeyMask --> Any of the Shift/Control/Alt keys down. 
LeftBtnMask --> Left mouse button down. 
RightBtnMask --> Right mouse button down. 
MiddleBtnMask --> Middle mouse down. 
BtnMask --> Any mouse button down. 
 
-- Is one of the shift keys is held down? 
if and_bits( shift, ShiftMask ) then 
. . . 
end if 
-- Check for the combination Ctrl and Right Mouse. 
if and_bits( shift, ControlMask+RightBtnMask ) then 
. . . 
end if 
 
The WheelMove parameter describes the direction and size of the mouse wheel movement.  
A value greater than 0 means that the wheel moved 'up' or away from the user, and a 
value less than zero means the wheel moved 'down' or towards the user. And of course, 
a value of 0 means that it didn't move at all.  
 
The speed, or size, of the movement is the absolute value of this parameter. You can 
use this in conjunction with getWheelScrollLines() to work out how the mouse wheel 
movement should effect your application.

I think you're making a big assumption here - maybe the online casino is one that the OP designed and is trying to debug?

Maybe it's an early start for some kind of April fools prank on a social media site?

There are lots of explainations here that don't result in the conclusion that someone is trying to cheat to win money or other prizes unfairly.
