More details here, as usual from the British press:

Woman who won $8.5m jackpot at casino is denied her winnings because managers claim the slot machine 'malfunctioned'

'We deeply regret that Ms. Castillo temporarily experienced an incorrect credit display while the machine began its process of metering down after the display malfunction, and have offered her a weekend stay in one of our suites as our guest, as well as dining at the property and free play included,' said Jospeh Dupuis from the Casino.

That ain't going to cut it...

Is that a nickel (lower left corner of image) machine? What is the advertised jackpot on that machine? We had nickel slots at the club on base (Europe) back in the 1980s, I’m pretty sure the payout on them wasn’t $8M.

video evidence of a simular machine "metering down" would be evidence for the casino, but if the display is an instant number .. ?

Pay Up !
