like that. There would be the usual twenty-stop reel, but with only ten
stops. There was no deception here. There was no stop or notch on the
wheel. A payout was a mechanical impossibility.
Some players, it was claimed, could "bounce" the machine expertly
at the moment of payout to jar the mechanism to release coins. Along the
same lines, players could supposeldy bounce the machine to slip the third
wheel back a stop to a payout combination. I have never seen these man-
uevers and wonder about their mechanical feasibility.
It appears to have been a stand off in the tug of war between the
player and the manufacturer/operator. As soon as a machine came out
with a new wrinkle, some player would learn to either beat it or cheat it.
The company then thwarted the ingenious as well as the crude ways to
cheat. From several friends currently in the coin-operated business, I hear
the battle goes on. However, as far as slot machines are concerned, Uncle
Sam, electronics, and the Bally Company ended the war between the
player and the manufacturers and operators.
