twitterCasino says tilt gave false $1 million jackpot
Monday, July 10, 2000 | 11:32 a.m.
The machine displayed a "tilt" message and casino workers told the man they could not pay him the jackpot.
Harrah's officials did not immediately release the name of the gambler.
The casino will ask for a State Police investigation to determine if the jackpot was real or was the result of a machine malfunction.
In November, a Tennessee couple sued the casino claiming that Harrah's wouldn't pay them a $1.4 million jackpot because of a machine malfunction. That lawsuit is still pending.
