If the GA is for a bundle [with base game + DLC or 2+ games], the person can still enter even if they already own part of it.
it's up to the GA creator to ask for re-roll saying the winner already own the base game or most of the bundle.

Was the GA for a base game or some kind of GOTY or Complete Collection? In the latter case, SG will not properly detect it as owned and thus allow entry. GA creator has the right to reroll if the winner owns the base game or a significant part of the collection, but it's not obligatory.

the giveaway was one single game, the game is bundled however according to this page https://www.steamgifts.com/bundle-games

For the hours it could have been a game with a free weekend, or a game they played through family sharing. If it's was actually owned, though, and just a single game with no DLC I don't know how they could have entered.

I saw someone win a $30 game that he already owned and had +100 hours on.
How did that person enter the giveaway if they already owned the game?
Is this a bug or an exploit?
