Walked into a bar where a guy had hit four dealt Deuces on a 100 play machine literally seconds before. I think he was playing dollars. The place obviously didn't have the cash on hand. Bartender said it was the biggest she'd seen in twenty years of bartending.
HUH?
Why would you say "the place OBVIOUSLY didn't have the cash on hand"??? I always thought the rules and regs of Nevada casino operations (which I am sure also are similar in other States & market regions) require any casino to have more than enough cash on hand to cover ANY possible jackpot and then some....!?!? I am certain there is a MINIMAL requirement of cash on hand for all licensed & legit casinos that applies or extends to a determined dollar amount based on possible jackpots and payouts.....your statement, particularly the "obviously" qualifier makes zero sense.
Were the machines rigged back then too or just recently?
I see you've stocked up on ammunition for your pot shot pop gun (PSPG) once again....I'm sure you regard your PSPG as being protected by the Second amendment rather than the First. Normally I find such Bilge from you easily ignored, however in this particular turd you really overstepped the incompetence threshold....Billryan clearly....CLEARLY was talking and referencing traditional old style SLOT machines from Atlantic City in his post, whereas you St.r..e...t....c..h.ed the scope to include video poker ; anyone who has followed my postings on AC Video Poker knows I have always limited my discussions of the statistical/play results discrepancies to VP games....and if that wasn't enough, Billryan merely talks about antiquated 3-reel games. Such relics no longer exist in modern casinos, not even close....

Billy has taken it on himself to become the forum expert of last resort. We had one already, but he takes frequent vacations when he doesn't like the tone of the responses. Jesus Christ himself could post on this forum and Billy would critique the Sermon on the Mount. I don't expect Billy has ever read it as the humble are exalted. Clearly this isn't in the AP handbook.
This forum will always be worthless unless we understand there are no experts here. There can't be because everyone views the game differently. I don't think we need a mother hen hovering above our every post telling us how to play a game with our own money. I want to converse with players who understand this, not someone who thinks he knows everything about everything. Not even Albert Einstein made that claim.
It was in the evening, but I don't think it was that late. Also it was in the Earth Casino in the old poker room in the bottom section. A 2 seater penny machine about in the middle. They now have Comix there in the upper part, but it was there below where the good pickem machines used to be.

I do not believe that the DB comment was aimed at billryan.
My guess is that that particular comment was aimed at the person who recently posted about hitting a 10k jackpot at an Illinois casino. Just a guess guess.
I've pretty much stopped reading the burgers rants, but let me assure him that bars do not keep $200,000 on hand to cover such payouts. In this case, the bartender called someone and after about a half hour two armed guards arrived.
Traditional three reel slots still exists in Nevada. Was playing some coin droppers just last week.
A couple of years ago, a lady hit a jackpot of close to $1.3 million on a Wheel of Fortune machine at Main Street Station in Las Vegas. I did not actually see it hit, but was close enough to hear the commotion, and did play close to the roped off machine later.
Me and my wife were also there when that hit. $1,281,000+. Lady from Hawaii on her 3rd $100 bill into the machine. I walked over to congratulate her for that most awesome hit.
