off and paid me the amount of the jackpot (and said they would have paid double
if I'd hit). This was at the Rampart.

On accidental jackpot/hand pay double ups , most casino's will follow the
rule of "nine" . If the house card is 9 or above , they have a big edge on
you, and will force you to play it off. I once accidentally hit double on a
jackpot ( house drew an ace ), and had to prove that the machine needed
screen calibration, before they finally after an hour of hassle paid me off.

I ended up with the double-up screen on a jackpot, called the attendants

and

explained that I never play it and didn't want it. They told me to play

it

off and paid me the amount of the jackpot (and said they would have paid

double
