CASE 2: ARCADIA
A standard arcade/pub machine with a £15 jackpot. The top feature, however, isn't the straight jackpot but a "streak", ie a sequence of wins which will usually add up to more, sometimes dramatically more. (£40-£50 wouldn't be all that unusual. The machine gets around the legal jackpot limit in circumstances like this by deducting a credit every time the win breaches a multiple of the jackpot amount.)
With this RAM file, the machine is about to spin in a jackpot. If you attempt to gamble the jackpot for the "streak", you will lose. (The number reel will show a 10. If you gamble "Low" it'll spin a 12, if you gamble "High" it'll spin a 9.) Again, this is clearly NOT a gamble, since you have no chance of winning, hence it is fraudulent and illegal. |
