It takes millions of hands to get over short term variations. My results on playing IGT machines come fairly close to the long run stats (have played over 3M hands) though their are large fluctuations in both directions which is normal in any games where the pay amounts are quite varied for the hands received. For your information, IGT checks the machines first, then the Gaming Control Board checks them to approve them. I think you wer ejsut ont he wrong side of standard deviation.

Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2004 15:44:40 -0700Could someone please explain what motivation IGT (and Action Gaming) would
have for taking such a risk? Don't say to sell more machines, multi-plays
are among the most popular in the casino and would sell regardless since
the offer the same games and paytables as on all other GameKings.They are almost always set up with < 100% max return games. Hundreds of
slot executives and technicians would know about the non-randomness. (And
how do so many people manage to keep a secret?)Oh, wait. They do it because they are evil and no one will tell because
they will immediately be killed. Yeah, that's it!At 02:45 PM 09/30/2004, you wrote:
