This piece of information definitely goes in the "Do not post on a public forum" list.
It's debatable whether or not this is illegal and casinos certainly frown on it. By the way, count counting machines have a legally allowable margin of error on the order of 1-2% of the coin in so I think that would be the loophole if the casino wanted to cause you pain.

This is rather interesting. If such machines were set to consistently undercount (hypothetical scenario for sake of discussion), it would remove the slim advantage of FPDW. Since the vast majority of people probably don't manually count their coins, doesn't the casino have an incentive to set the machine to do a "conservative" count? With today's technology, why is such a wide margin of error allowable? Is this set by each state? Jean, do you have any info on this subject?
