Jackpot or not

Why, correct me if I'm wrong here, I believe that game is fixed!!. Sounds like the casino pretty much admitted it. In a true game of chance it would be possible to pull back to back prizes. Not likely, but possible.

Slots are computerized, and set up to basically pay 85 cents for every dollar they take in. They're the biggest sucker bet in the whole casino, blackjack and all those Asian sounding funky games included. At least roulette gives you almost even odds, if you play red/black or odd/even. Not quite even cause you also lose if it comes up 0 or 00.

Of course they're rigged--in favor of the house. Every game gives the house and edge.

Then of course, if the game malfunctioned and NEVER EVER hit a lackpot or a high payout prize, do you think they casino, or the state for that matter would pull that game and fix the problem?
Hell no! They would let it sit and collect 100% of the bets.

I say since the casino is responsible for the upkeep of their own damn machines, and they evidently failed to do so in this case, they are liable for any and all losses incurred due to their own negligence.

It's a two-way street: If you can't afford to lose, you shouldn''t bet, and if you can't maintain your machines, you should be prepared to pay ALL winnings.
