Hoffman, a frequent player at Sandia and a member of its players club, had
been playing the Mystical Mermaid machine for some time on Aug. 16, 2006,
and had won 40 bonus rounds when the machine signalled a jackpot, according to
Bregman. The retiree was understandably excited and, according to Bregman, he
took a picture of the slot machine and its payout line: "$1,597,244.10."
According to Bregman, casino employees "basically said, sit down, we don't
want you to have a heart attack, have some water."
Then, he said, "20 to 30 minutes later they took him into a back room and
had a security guy walk up to him and say, 'You didn't win; that was a
malfunction.' ''
This is a good time for Stations to set up cheap turn around busses to Alb.
