I guess I get that, but if a machine says I won $1 million, I would absolutely expect that money. If a product is mispriced in a grocery store they don’t say “sorry it’s wrong”, they honor the price. Maybe not in a gas station slot machine, but that casino has millions upon millions of dollars and operate many machines that could pay out (or malfunction). That’s their liability. I wonder if there’s a sign or pamphlet in the casino or on machines that say “sometimes errors occur and we don’t always honor depicted winnings”.

Yes there is.

In my experience working at a casino it was on the back of the tickets your winnings are printed on as well. Even worse, for mine malfunction just null and voided "all pays and plays". If you won "43 million" but it was really 2.50 cents you technically aren't even entitled to the 2.50 lol. You'd get the cost of your spin back legally.

Of course they'd settle and give you a reasonable amount, they aren't stupid, malfunctions are rare and they aren't worth the 200$ you'd lose to honor most of them.

*But* the writing on the ticket says they don't have to.
