Far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. Job 34:10-11
“He who oppresses the poor to get gain for himself, and he who gives to the rich will surely come to want” (Proverbs 22:16).
Casino gambling isn t fair . Never play against the house , or against machines. As the former owner of several of them in a business, I can tell you that they are programmed to turn profit to the house , or owner . Malfunction is just a sorry excuse to save some money that was never meant to be lost.
unfair… if it isn’t 1million it still can pay th full prize to her..
Did she win??? I really hope so,
lol they wouldn’t get that money in a month, they’ll get it the next day
I think she had a very legitimate case against them. I wonder how this all turned out. Hopefully the casino paid her. It’s not like they wouldn’t get the money back in a month from all the other suckers.
If she has had a “long term relationship” with this casino, she knows damn well what the jackpot on a penny poker machine is. Stop whining and take your 800 dollars.
how did this turn out?
Anyone knows that the jackpot for a video poker machine is 800xbet at max credits. Add a little bit more for a progressive jackpot. So, she bet max 100 pennies so $800+ is correct.
LOL at thinking a casino is going to pay a million bucks on a penny royal flush.
even if it was a MALFUNCTION they should pay here just on morals but they are cheap even though they can afford 300x that amount.
Yes, false advertising is wrong.
i think they should pay her they just don’t want to pay
anyone know if she got paid???
that’s hella bullshit
same happend in Casino of Venezia (Italy)short time ago.
The Casino claims it was a malfunction and won’t pay the guy .
It’s a fraud!Don’t play at slot machine but at roulette if you have a good system…
Anyone know how this story ended? Did she get paid or did she successfully sue them? Anyone know?
shes filipino, anyways ***…. ill be screwing
everything is in favor of the house allways remember that
Wade sounds like a jealous cocksucker. I want to see the same happen to him, and watch him breakdown, and then we’ll see if he still sides with the gaming board, and claim he wasn’t ripped off.
they would pay or i would still be there whooping somebody ass
Either way they should pay, its there fault there systems are old its there own fucking fault. PAY HER GODDAMNIT, or be sued bout 3 times more
I think that at the very least Fiesta should try to reach some settlement with that woman, not completely refuse to pay. Bad word of mouth could potentially end up costing Fiesta a lot more.
False advertisement,If any shop says buy one get one free and when you bring it to the checkout and the shop assistant says that deal is now over,The shop still has to give you the deal as there still advertising it.
This women should get her million bucks.
Thanks for the video….nice to know. Malfunction?… like he said..human error, I don’t call that a malfunction.. Casino should pay. Unbelievable. I will make sure both amounts match if I play, on my screen & on the amount up top!…..hmmm
The outcome of the case was: $852.06 to Ms. Privee, the GCB denied the claim for $1mil! Even though the machine read $1mil payout on 2 different screens-how could THAT be a malfunction? So unfair!!
Oh by the way-there is no way she can appeal the decision. All parties agreed to be bound by the Gaming Commission’s ruling! (All of the people on the “Board” have some sort of involvement with different casinos as well). What do you all think about that piece of info? I can imagine how she is feeling now-she’ll NEVER forget this incident.
