The unusual reason this woman was denied the $8 million jackpot she won

All these stories – and there are quite a few of them now – beg the question of why the casino doesn’t just pay out the winnings. $42 million is a bit much, but when it comes to smaller sums, why doesn’t the casino just pay up and recoup the losses from other machines?

Another option is going after the machine’s manufacturer, and getting the difference from them. That would certainly go a long way in creating good will among the casino’s customer base, as opposed to insulting two-dollar offers.
