Court should rule that, because the casino doesn't know when the Tilt started, they need to track down and reimburse everyone who played it since the last verified inspection.

It would be more cost effective to simply accept this as a win.
How can they prove it wasn’t malfunctioning for a prolonged period?
They assume it only broke for the win because that’s how they benefit.

It's survivorship bias in its truest form.

There's no conspiracy. The slot machine in question is a WAP (Wide Area Progressive) machine. That same machine and progressive amount are connected with the other Wheel of Fortune games throughout the country at other casinos. If that particular machine had it hit, it would have locked up and the rest of the machines at other casinos would have just reset to it's base amount (probably 250,000 - 500,000)

Bingo, maintain the machines better to guard against this or pay up.

Was it “tilting” for all those losses?

Idk anything about election machines. I do that the video slots are more reliable than the reel slot she was playing because of course, reel slots have moving parts (reels)

A machine will very rarely tilt on a jackpot like that....very

If that’s true, then it’s possible the win was legitimate but the comms with the other machines were bad.
If this particular machine triggers a win, then it tries to communicate the win to other systems, could it then go on “tilt”? The win would be legitimate and the “tilt” would be legitimate.

Can you prove to me that the machine was not malfunctioning when players were losing?
Why have I never heard of casinos detecting a malfunction in the players’ favor and refunding their losses?

If you won legitimately, they would pay you, or at least keep you in the casino long enough to try and win the money back.
That scene in Casino where they destroyed a cheater’s hand with a mallet? Based on an actual story told by Lefty Rosenthal of a pair of guys caught cheating at the Stardust.

Who cares if there is a technical glitch?
I did not cheat
I put my money in the machine
I spin the wheel
Machine says I win
There is a reason it is known as a game of chance...for both.
You chance losing your money, and they chance losing their money.
Pay Up!
